Chapter 668 The next day, Ricardo arrived early at the café, his impatience evident as he cast a glance at his watch. The waiter approached him and said, "Sir, you've been waiting for an hour now. Would you like a refill on your coffee?" The waiter gave Ricardo a peculiar look. Given Ricardo's stylish appearance and handsfeatures, he didn't seem like someone who would skimp on spending.
Clearly, Ricardo noticed the waiter's gaze. He frowned and looked at his now empty coffee cup.
He had always lived a life of luxury and had never needed to ask for a refill on a coffee before, but the issue was that he genuinely didn't have much money on him at the moment Ricardo said with a hint of impatience, "Another refill, please." The waiter's disdain grew. It was surprising that someone so attractive was short on money for even two cups of coffee! Meanwhile, Booker was outside the café and hurried in. Upon seeing Booker, Ricardo immediately lost his temper, "What took you so long? Couldn't you have explained things over the phone? Did we really have to chere?" God knows how many disdainful looks Ricardo had endured waiting here! "Tm tembly sorry, Mr. Ricardo. My flight was delayed, so I got here a bit late.” As Booker sincerely apologized, Ricardo waved his hand in frustration and said, "You mentioned last night that the loan issue was almost sorted. What's the status now?" "Ive been in touch with several banks we've dealt with before, but none of them are willing to lend us the money. The sum is too large, and they're afraid of the risks." Ricardo beceven angrier. "You meetin Devonport just to tellthis?" "Mr. Ricardo, although the banks haven't cthrough, there is someone willing to lend us the money." "Who? W "Who? Who can possibly offer us billions at once?" Such a vast sum wasn't trivial, and Ricardo would likely know of any enterprise capable of lending billions instantly! Booker stared at Ricardo and slowly stated, "It's the head of S Corporation." Ricardo becinstantly wary. "You mean Blake?" "Yes." "Booker, have you lost your mind? I'm trying to compete with Blake, and he's willing to lendmoney? Seeing Ricardo's disbelief, Booker explained, "It's true, but Blake has his conditions." Ricardo frowned, "What conditions?" "Blake is only willing to to lend us ten billion," "Are you joking? What can ten billion accomplish?"
"Mr. Ricardo, ten billion... it's enough to save the foundation of Duskhaven, allowing the Duskhaven project to proceed as planned."
Ricardo angrily retorted, "But I've spent so much to expand our m influence in Devonport Doesn't that mean all my investments will go down the drain?"
Ricardo's voice was so loud that it attracted the attention of others around them. Booker could-onlym console him, "Mr. Ricardo, although it means you'll face slosses and hardships, we can gradually make up for those. If you refuse this loan now, we'll lose everything." Booker could see he was slowly persuading Ricardo and continued, "Mr. Ricardo, this might be our last chance."
