King's Awakening - Chapter 330: 330: Did I Say Something Like This?
Chapter 330: Chapter 330: Did I Say Something Like This?
Alan Austin was completely panicked. He had put in so much effort and staked his entire fortune on this bid.
If he couldn’t secure the Nezzi New Town project, he would likely go bankrupt in a matter of days.
Furthermore, he had firmly promised Noah Weiden and Messiah Anderson that he would definitely secure the Nezzi New Town project.
Given the current situation, would Noah Weiden and Messiah Anderson kill him?
So, at this point, Alan Austin didn’t care about appearances anymore. He only hoped that David Herb could tell him that all of this was fake, just a joke.
Grandy Anderson, who was standing next to him, was also desperately saying to David Herb on the stage, “Mr. Herb…..Mr. Herb, please don’t joke with us anymore, we can’t take this kind of scare.
Sherry Jones is nothing but a little girl who barely knows anything about managing a company or a project. The Nezzi New Town project is a huge one, how can it be entrusted to her?
Our Imperial Group is different. We are the cream of the crop in this industry; we have plenty of experience. We…”
Before Grandy Anderson could finish, an anxious Alan Austin interrupted, “Mr. Herb, you said before that Nezzi New Town was ours, the Imperial Group’s. You personally told me so.
I’ve done everything you asked me to do. You can’t abandon us now.
If you do this, our Imperial Group will go bankrupt. You can’t harm us…”
“Harm you?”
Upon hearing this, David Herb on the stage sneered, a playful expression on his face. “You can eat whatever you want, but you can’t just say anything.
Your Imperial Group going bankrupt, what’s that got to do with me, David Herb?
And did I ever say such a thing? Ah…I am getting old, my memory isn’t as good as it used to be.”
What…
Upon hearing David Herb’s words, Alan Austin and Grandy Anderson were rendered speechless. Both stood there as if they had been immobilized by a Fixed-body Skill.
It’s over, David Herb is not admitting to his words, the Imperial Group is finished!
Not only is the Imperial Group doomed, but Noah Weiden and Messiah Anderson’s side is also headed for disaster.
At this moment, Alan Austin felt as if he had been struck by lightning out of the blue, completely shocked, his eyes becoming blank.
The next moment, an ashen-faced Alan Austin stumbled and collapsed to the ground, all energy drained from his body.
It’s all over, it’s all over, he was really going to go bankrupt this time.
Meanwhile, Grandy Anderson said angrily, “Mr. Herb, you can’t do this to us; you personally promised us before.
Right now, you say you ‘don’t remember’, and that’s supposed to just settle it? This is unfair!”
Unfair?
On the stage, David Herb’s face suddenly darkened. “Imperial Group is worthy of talking about fairness with me? Don’t think I don’t know about the little tricks you’ve been up to recently.
Not mentioning land hoarding, the people from the Jones family just now, you were behind that, wasn’t it? Am I wrong?
A third-rate company like yours is qualified to talk about fairness with me? Just get lost and don’t dirty my place!”
“You!”
Grandy Anderson was instantly embossed, her gorgeous face flushing red, a look of injustice pervading her face.
“Mr. Austin, Ms. Anderson, please.” A security guard came directly to their faces.
Alan Austin’s eyes were bloodshot; gritting his teeth, he forced himself to rise. “White Mitchell, Sherry Jones, I’m not done with you!!!”
“How presumptuous! Get them out of here!” This time, it was Azure Dragon standing behind David Herb who issued the order.
The next moment, the two guards standing behind Azure Dragon raised their weapons and said coldly, “Get out!”
With an embarrassed look on his face, Alan Austin did not dare to resist and had to slink out of the bidding meeting.
Then, Sherry Jones walked onto the stage, solemnly took the tender from David Herb’s hand.
This also symbolized that Sherry Jones would soon become a shining star in Sayon’s business world.
Meanwhile, White stood under the stage, silently waiting for Sherry, an unflustered look on his face.
When an enthusiastic Sherry, holding the bid triumphantly, walked up to him, White then smiled, “Don’t forget our agreement, don’t stay overtime tonight, go home and warm up the bed for me.”
Sherry, who was initially thinking about sharing her joy with White, blushed at these words and promptly buried her face in her chest, whispering shyly: “I know, always bullying others.”
Seeing the shy look on Sherry’s face, White’s smile deepened.
On the other hand, after being expelled from the bidding, Alan Austin had immediately returned to the offices of the Imperial Group, where he locked himself in his office, not even allowing Grandy Anderson to enter.
The next moment, people in the Imperial Group heard a series of crashing sounds from inside.
Crash…crash…crash…
With the office in chaos, the staff were terrified, afraid that Alan Austin might vent his anger on them.
Meanwhile, as Alan Austin was venting in his office, Noah Weiden and Messiah Anderson, who had heard the news about Sherry winning the bid, rush to the Jones Group building to confront Alan Austin.
Messiah Anderson storms in first, kicking open Alan Austin’s office door. “Fuck! Is this what you call a sure win, an all but guaranteed victory?
Believing your bullshit, I put my entire fortune on the line; is this the result you show me?
Alan Austin, you fucking bastard, you owe me thirty billion!”
Noah Weiden was also furious; he had done this behind his grandfather’s back.
If his grandfather were to find out that he put all the Weiden Family’s assets on the line and had lost everything without making any profit, wouldn’t he tear him in half?
Facing the inquiries of Messiah Anderson and Noah Weiden, an already enraged Alan Austin was even more furious. He turned around abruptly, eyes filled with bloodshot veins, looking extremely terrifying.
“You think I fucking wanted this? Did I lose less than you guys?” Alan Austin picked up the computer on the desk and smashed it violently onto the ground. With a loud crash, the computer instantly shattered.
Seeing this, Grandy Anderson hurriedly stepped forward to mediate. “Calm down, everyone calm down. With things as they are, there’s no point in arguing.
Rather than this, it’s better to think about how we can recuperate our losses or reclaim the Nezzi New Town project. These are the pressing matters.”
Messiah Anderson, fuming, retorted, “It’s easier said than done. What solution could there be at this point? David Herb has already announced that the Nezzi New Town project is in Sherry’s hands now.
What, are you suggesting we point a gun at David Herb and force him to change his mind?
Even if he agrees, would the Nezzi Command accept it?”
In response to Messiah Anderson’s inquiry, Grandy Anderson did not show any anger. Instead, a cruel light flashed in her eyes as she coldly said, “What if the unexpected occurred, and Sherry were to die unexpectedly?”
