Chapter 148
Believing in striking the iron while it was still hot, Will immediately asked for Manuel’s account and transferred him a deposit of 4 million dollars. He didn’t even ask for a receipt or contract as an assurance.
Because he had complete confidence in Oliver’s moral quality and personal ability.
However, Manuel still wrote him a deposit receipt on which pressed his fingerprint. He thought it was someone else’s business to trust him, but he still had to do things according to normal procedures.
When they were ready to leave, Wayne said seriously to Jenifer, “Miss Jenifer, it’s my boss who decided to play the bigger man. But if you do that again, I will show you the consequences!”
Jenifer was somewhat frightened by Wayne’s serious face. She wanted to retort and scold him, but Will gave her a harsh eye, so she had to endure it.
It wasn’t until Oliver got in the car and left with Wayne and others that Will whispered sternly to Jenifer, “Jenifer, I don’t mean to scold you. But you have gone too far. I’m all for it that you have a crush on Oliver. As a talent with immeasurable potential, he is just not someone whom we can seduce and suppress with money and power. If you really like him, I suggest you only touch him with sincerity. But I guess…”
Shaking his head, Will continued with a sigh, “I guess that your chance won’t be big because he has already found his love!”
Jenifer pursed his lips stubbornly and said, “I don’t care. I like him no matter what. He is my only crush in my life!”
Will could only smile bitterly.
For an extraordinary character like Oliver, Will surely wanted to build bonds with him.
If Oliver could be his brother-in-law, it would be great. With the support of Oliver’s ability, Will was sure that he could seize leadership of the Woods family firmly.
In the car, Manuel hurriedly asked Oliver, “Dude, did Jenifer treat you well?”
However, before long Manuel said those words, he then said in a mocking tone, “What possibly can she do to you? The worst situation might be that she nails you. But still, you would lose nothing. Dear, that girl is really crazy. She even dared kidnap us.”
Oliver had no choice but to snort.
Manuel-then continued, “Dude, We earned more than 16 million dollars this time. This money has nothing to do with the company. Since it is from the sideline, I say we split it. 60% is for you, and I get the rest.”
Oliver immediately refused, “50-50. 8 million dollars for each of us and the rest will be Wayne and Sim’s.”
Manuel tried to argue with Oliver but gave up eventually because Oliver just kept shaking his head.
Oliver was not that greedy. Now that he and Manuel were like brothers and he had joined the interest group of Manuel’s company, he knew what it meant to make a fortune together.
As for Manuel, he had a clear idea of his positioning. He could come up with ideas and find financial resources, but in the end, he had to rely on Oliver to make money. Therefore, no matter how much money they made together, Øliver accounted for 99% of the credit. He didn’t want to take as much money as Oliver did.
And Oliver’s attitude made Manual both touched and grateful. Since Oliver insisted on this, he didn’t say anything more. He agreed quickly and then called the financial guy of the company to transfer money to Oliver, Wayne and Simon respectively.
In the past, Manuel couldn’t imagine how easy it was to make money. Now, they could earn more than 16 million dollars in one day.
Yet years ago, he only made a profit of 20 or 40 million dollars a year after working the pants off him.
Now, with Oliver’s help, he could make ten times more than that number in a month. This time, his company even made 16 million dollars in a day, which was completely out of his imagination.
However, as he knew Oliver better, his endurance had been expanding because of Oliver’s continuous stimulus.
The four of them arrived at the airport with no accidents occurring again. They took the plane and returned to Jeahron safely,
After getting off the plane, Oliver received a message the moment he turned on his phone: [Oliver, this is Gabriel. Something happened to Hailey. I can only ask for help from you. Yet your phone is turned off. Hope you can reply to this message after seeing it.] Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
In the stun, Oliver hurriedly gave Gabriel a call.
Shortly, Gabriel’s trembling voice reached Oliver through the phone, “Oliver, is that you? Something happened to Hailey. She. After returning from Enchanting Hollow, she had been flagging. Then one day she said that she would go abroad. I couldn’t stop her because I thought it was good for her to take a break overseas so that her mind could be distracted. In the
first several days after she arrived in Oropa, I could still check her condition on the phone. She said she was fine. Yet suddenly, I couldn’t get in touch with her yesterday. Today, I got a call from her mobile phone. It was a man’s voice saying that he wanted 10 million Oros. And he said he would kill Hailey if I called the police or refused to pay the money.”
Without a second thought, Oliver replied to Gabriel, “Gabriel, send me Hailey’s detailed address in Oropa. I will be there right away. Don’t worry about the money. Leave it to me.”
He thought, “10 million Oros for domestic current is just over 80 million dollars. It’s nothing to Oliver. I can afford it.”
Gabriel said yes and soon sent him Hailey’s address in Oropa.
It was a small town in Quesdia.
Oliver immediately called Fabian and asked him to get passports for himself, Wayne and Simon done and book a flight to Quesdia.
Feeling nervous as well, Manuel said, “Dude, is it an emergency? I’ll go with you!”
Oliver shook his head and said, “My friend is in trouble. But as long as the trouble is about money, it can be solved easily. You don’t have to join us. Besides, you still have a company to run. I will contact you at any time. If you are in trouble, just let me know. I have no use of my money on the account anyway.”
Manuel hesitated for a moment and agreed. “What else could I do but support them with money?” he thought.
Yet the last thing that Oliver was in shortage was money. As for Wayne and Simon, they could provide Oliver with force.
More importantly, Oliver happened to get to the point on one thing. Manuel was indispensable for everything in the company. The fact is that he really couldn’t join the expedition. If he left the company for two or three days, the company would be in chaos.
After arranging everything well, Oliver went home first. He told his parents and Sienna he needed to travel to Oropa for business.
Surely they wouldn’t overthink it. Oliver didn’t defy the law, and the jadeite stone trade was also legal. So, they didn’t ask too many questions.
Sienna wanted to join him and see what the exotic scenery looked like, but Oliver’s mother and her own parents didn’t agree. “How could a woman who was pregnant for months run around the world?” they thought.
Oliver didn’t want her on this travel as well. Although it was not a matter of personal feelings, that he risked his life to save Hailey still might make her jealous. Any woman would be jealous of this, let alone Sienna who was Oliver’s official girlfriend.
After all, Sienna was very sensitive to Hailey. When they went to Enchanting Hollow, the two of them had had a conflict.
Otherwise, Hailey wouldn’t have returned in frustration. And her father’s death made her emotions worse. That was why she traveled that far to Oropa.
This travel was destined to be a secret.
Even Wayne and Simon knew this point, so they didn’t say anything to Fabian or the others.
