The Guardian's Sword

Chapter 1423

“What did you say?

“Are you trying to take over my company without paying me a single cent?

“Sean Lennon, are you a fool or am I the fool right now?”

Jimmy suddenly widened his eyes after listening to what Sean said.

Not only was Sean asking for a lot, but he was trying to take advantage of him!

“What’s wrong? Do you disagree?”

Sean crossed his legs. There was a calm gaze in his eyes.

“I absolutely disagree!

“Back then, you were the one who suggested the condition of paying 73 million dollars in return for all the

shares of my company.

“But you’re now…”

Sean waved his hand and interrupted Jimmy before he could finish speaking.

“Do you still have the right to negotiate terms with me right now?”

Jimmy was rendered speechless after Sean questioned him.

Back then, both of them were considered big bosses in the real estate industry of Joules Town.

However, Jimmy was in prison now.

He had truly lost the right to negotiate terms with Sean.

Jimmy gritted his teeth when he thought about this. He regretted everything that he had done so much

right now.

If he knew that this day would come, he would definitely have agreed to Sean’s terms without hesitation

back then!

If he accepted Sean’s terms back then, he might still be alright right now. Besides, he would still have

several million dollars in cash on his hands.

He might not even be able to get 73 million dollars right now.

Not only was his company being ruined right now, but he also faced the risk of paying a huge fine.

Also, he had to bear the costs of the contract termination penalty fees from other companies, the salaries

of the company’s employees, and so on.

Jimmy would definitely go bankrupt. He would even owe a lot of money to his creditors.

After all, the larger a company was, the lesser risks it could withstand.

Once there was a problem with any single part of the company, a chain reaction would occur.

The problem itself would become more and more serious as well.

It was just like how Billion Trees Real Estate had not managed to resolve a small problem in time.

When Jimmy realized the problem within the company, Sean had already struck them with a series of

fatal blows. He did not even have the chance to defend himself.

“Oh!”

Jimmy exhaled lightly.

He knew that there was no way to turn back time, but he could not help but regret his decisions.

It would be great if he could return to the moment Sean negotiated his terms with him.

Getting 73 million dollars was wishful thinking. He would agree even if Sean was willing to pay him 7

million and 3 hundred thousand dollars.

However, it was too late for him to say anything now.

“15 million dollars.

“I just need 15 million dollars!

“I’ll give you everything in Billion Trees Real Estate, be it our property, cars, even down to the bottles of

water in the company.

“Besides that, you must bear the debts under Billion Trees Real Estate.

“I just need 15 million dollars in cash!”

Jimmy gave in some more after remaining silent for a while.

He proposed a price of 15 million dollars instead of 73 million dollars.

“I don’t have money.”

However, Sean still gave him a simple and curt reply.

Jimmy had rejected his offer when he suggested paying him a sum of money in return for his company’s

shares back then. It was too late for him to ask for anything right now.

“In that case, there’s no need for us to discuss anything.

“Even if I die, I won’t give my company to you.”

Jimmy gritted his teeth and clenched his hands into fists as he spoke in a deep voice.

It was obvious that he did not want to talk to Sean anymore.

However, Sean was not in a hurry to leave.

Since he had said that he would take over Billion Trees Real Estate, he would definitely do as he had

said.

He was yet to achieve his goal. How could he leave so easily?

“Look here. This is my office.”

Sean slowly took out his phone and swiped to a photograph. He then showed Jimmy his phone.

Jimmy frowned slightly, but he still glanced at the photograph.

“Hah, you don’t have any taste.”

Jimmy withdrew his gaze after looking at the photograph for less than a couple of seconds.

He thought that Sean was showing off his company’s renovation to him.

“Swipe to the back.”

Sean said calmly. He seemed extremely at ease.

Jimmy felt slightly confused after hearing what he said. However, he still swiped to the next photograph.

It was still a photograph of Sean’s office.

However, there was someone in his office now.

Jimmy’s expression instantly changed.

The girl in the photograph was Jane!

Smash!

All of a sudden, Jimmy slammed his fist against the table. He glared at Sean with widened eyes.

“You captured my daughter?

“If you dare to touch my family, I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you!”

Jimmy ground his teeth harshly. His voice contained a strong sense of threat.

“I assume that i didn’t hear you wrongly.

“Are you threatening me?”

Sean frowned slightly as he asked Jimmy.

“You!”

Jimmy was instantly stunned.

Of course he was threatening Sean.

However, he suddenly realized that given his current condition, his threats were rather empty.

Jimmy was still a powerful man with plenty of authority and connections yesterday. He was still a

billionaire.

Nevertheless, he was just a lowly criminal today.

Even an ordinary person would not fear Jimmy’s threats, let alone Sean.

“It’s useless for you to threaten me.”

“Do you think that I can’t threaten you?”

Sean slowly picked up his phone and looked through Jane’s photographs once again.

“Sean, you can’t be so treacherous.

“This doesn’t involve our family. It’s just me who offended you.

“What gives you the right to touch my family?!”

There was a deep hateful gaze in Jimmy’s eyes.

“Do you have any idea how many families you’ve ruined?

“How dare you say that this doesn’t involve family?”

Sean’s sneer made Jimmy fall silent once again.

He clearly knew how many families he had broken up and how many people he had ruined through all

sorts of means.

Initially, he thought that he could hide it from the world.

However, he knew that it was useless for him to argue against Sean after experiencing what he was

capable of doing.

Sean was even capable of finding out what Jimmy had done a decade ago.

Do not even mention everything that Jimmy had done in recent years.

“It’s all my fault!

“Sean, give me a chance! Don’t touch them!

“I’m begging you!”

Jimmy changed his attitude after taking a deep breath.

He had threatened Sean just now.

Meanwhile, he had a pleading expression on his face right now.

“That depends on your performance.”

Sean slowly took out a document while speaking.

Jimmy did not need to look at the document to know that it must be a contract regarding the shares of

Billion Trees Real Estate.

He did not expect Sean to have prepared a contract as well.

Sean had really come well-prepared!

Jimmy found it hard to imagine what the young man in his twenties standing in front of him must have

experienced for him to have such courage and wits.

It was as if everything was within Sean’s control.

“I want 15 million dollars!

“I’ll accept nothing less than that.”

Jimmy remained silent for a while. He still insisted on Sean following through with his condition.

How could Jimmy let Sean take over all of his assets for free?

15 million dollars was his bottom line.
