Slumdog Billionaire Husband by Rayden Berg

Gerald glanced at Howard and said indifferently, “I’m not asking you for a favor. Why are you being

sarcastic here?”

Howard sneered. Instead of being angry, he looked at Joselyn and said, “Joselyn, you will be my

girlfriend from now on I hate to interfere with your social circle, but I don’t think you should be seeing

people like him from today on. He is clearly just a useless nobody. I don’t think he can do much except

ask you for help. It’s wise not to have anything to

do with him.”

Joselyn was stunned. She was a little unwilling, but when she thought that she needed Howard to help

her, she could only bite her lip and stand in situ without saying anything.

Gerald did not argue with Howard. Gerald simply smiled, looked at Rodrigo, and said, “Go ahead. I will

ask Joselyn to take me to see Mr. Fenn.”

Rodrigo was stunned for a second and then nodded.

“Take me to see your dad, Gerald said.

Joselyn nodded and said, “OK. Come with me. I think he is in a meeting.”

Gerald nodded. Meanwhile, Howard snorted and followed Joselyn into the elevator. In the elevator, he

sized Gerald up bluntly with an indifferent expression.

Gerald stroked his chin as being stared at by Howard, speechless.

“Ding!”

The elevator arrived at the floor of the conference room.

“Over here,” Joselyn smiled at Gerald.

They walked towards the conference room.

As soon as they reached the door of the conference room, Gerald saw the door of the conference room

open. Many people came out with sad faces, and some were sighing.

They were obviously the higher–ups of the company.

Joselyn kept greeting them.

After they left, Gerald saw Cayden walking out with a middle–aged man in his fifties. Cayden frowned

deeply, while the middle aged man had a smile on his face.

Cayden looked up. When he saw Gerald, he forced a smile and said, “Gerald, you are here. Let’s go to

my office.‘

They walked toward Cayden’s office.

Cayden’s office was very spacious with a lot of books. After sitting down, Cayden said, “Gerald, wait a

second. I have something to talk to Mr. Wheatley about.”

After saying that, Cayden looked at Belinda.

Suddenly, Cayden was slightly stunned, as if he knew Belinda. A trace of suspicion flashed across his

face.

Adrien Wheatley seemed suspicious as well.

However, no one said anything. Gerald sat on the sofa.

Cayden said to Howard and Joselyn, “Joselyn, sit over here, too.”

Howard said, “Mr. Fenn, here’s the thing. Joselyn just agreed to be my girlfriend, and we are here to

inform you. I’m wondering if maybe we can set a wedding date. It’ll make it easier for my dad to

cooperate with you. Don’t you think?”

Cayden frowned and suddenly looked at Joselyn.

Beside them, Adrien smiled and said, “That’s great news! I can’t believe I didn’t know that till now. Well,

Mr. Fenn, if that’s the case, forget about my previous offer. I’ll invest 800 million dollars in exchange for

30 percent of your company’s shares.”

Cayden gritted his teeth and said, “Adrien, you have raised a good son, haven’t you? The market value

of my company is more than 8 billion dollars. And now you want 30 percent of the shares with only 800

million dollars? Aren’t you…”

“Things are different now,” Adrien smiled. “I proposed 35 percent of the shares earlier. I’m making a

compromise since our families are about to be relatives.”

“Even 800 million dollars won’t be enough for me now.” Cayden shook his head. Then he looked at

Joselyn. “Joselyn, I know you don’t like Howard. You don’t need to sacrifice this much for the company

or me. If the worst comes to the worst, we might go bankrupt. Big deal! What I have is enough for you

and me to live well for the rest of our lives.”

Adrien smiled and said, “Is that so? Anyway, 800 million dollars is all I can offer. If you agree, we can

sign the contract now. Of course, now we have to add another clause to the contract. Marry your

daughter to my son.”

“Dad, I am willing to marry him.” Joselyn gritted her teeth.

“It’s all up to you,” Adrien said with a smile.

Cayden’s expressions changed a few times.

Gerald suddenly asked, “Mr. Fenn, how much money do you need to get through this?”

No one expected that Gerald would suddenly ask such a question.

Howard tilted his head, glanced at Gerald, and said disdainfully, “What’s the point of asking? Aren’t you

afraid of scaring yourself by asking the number?”

Cayden smiled bitterly.

He knew Gerald was a Watchman, but he did not know how many assets Gerald had. He smiled

bitterly and said, “I’ll need about 1.6 billion dollars. The thing is, the capital chain is broken, and the

banks…”

“Did you hear that? 1.6 billion dollars! Do you have any idea how much that is?” Howard glanced at

Gerald with disdain.

“So, if the capital chain is repaired, will there be a chance to turn the tables?” Gerald asked.

“Wait a second. Who the fuck are you? What the heck are you doing here?” Howard looked at Gerald

and said. impatiently.

“Shut your mouth.” Gerald raised his eyes and looked at Howard impatiently. Then Gerald said, “You

are just a piece of shit without your dad. Only with an opportunity like this can you get to threaten

Joselyn. In normal times, I don’t think Joselyn will even look at you seriously. Do you seriously think

she will like an asshole like you?”

“Mr. Fenn, your friend here seems a bit ignorant to me,” hearing Gerald’s words, Adrien said with

hostility.

However, Cayden had a feeling.

He knew Gerald would not ask him those questions for no reason. Instead of responding to Adrien and

Howard, he nodded and said, “If I can get the money, I am sure to make the project bigger and better in

the next two or three years. When the time comes, the profits will be quite considerable.”

“Mr. Fenn, you must have been so desperate. Look at him. What’s he wearing? Do you really think he

has that kind of money?” Howard asked with disdain.

Gerald nodded and said, “OK then. I believe you.‘

As he spoke, he took out his phone and made a call.

Soon, Leandro picked up the call and said on the other end of the line, “Hey. What’s going on?”

“Do you know Cayden Fenn, from Atlanta?” Gerald asked calmly.

“Yeah. What about him?” Leandro said. “I hear he seems to be in some serious trouble lately.”

“Yes. He needs 1.6 billion dollars now. You’ve got enough, right? If you don’t, just go to New Bank and

tell them my name,” Gerald said.

“I think I’ll manage.” Leandro nodded.

“Alright then. I am with Mr. Fenn now, and you can talk to him directly. I don’t know much about these

kinds of stuff. You can talk with him about things like how to transfer the money to him.” Gerald handed

his phone to Cayden. Then he said, “It’s Leandro Hanson, from Universe Group.”

Hearing Leandro’s name, Cayden was thrilled instantly.

Next to them, Adrien and Howard were shocked. Howard looked at Gerald and said, “Keep bragging.

Even if you know Mr. Hanson, I don’t think you can let him mobilize 1.6 billion dollars just like that.”

Gerald glanced at Howard and said calmly, “Why can’t I? I own Universe Group. So what if I turn it

upside down?”
