Grayson narrowed his eyes. "We seem to be on the losing end no matter how I look at it, Sir."
He knew that the property prices of Cloudy Dreams were only in the low millions.
Meanwhile, the investment in Sean Bell's movie production was worth billions.
Jay cast a stern gaze on Grayson. "Are you questioning my decision?" 1
Grayson wiped away the beads of cold sweat on his forehead. "I'll do it right now."
Grayson could not understand it as he walked away. "I never knew that he's so willing to lose out on an investment," he mumbled to himself.
Grayson gave a call to Sean and told him about Mr. Ares's offer. He thought that Sean would immediately agree, but Sean immediately protested when he heard the offer.
"What does he mean? Does he have an objection to me renting Cloudy Dreams to Rose Doyle?"
Grayson finally understood the reason behind Mr.
Ares's 'stupid' decision. 1
'Looks like Mr. Ares has been blinded by beauty!' Grayson lamented.
Even though Grayson might not agree with Mr. Ares's decision of losing material wealth to gain a woman's heart, he knew that his president's orders were absolute.
"If you don't agree with the offer, Mr. Bell, I regret to tell you that Grand Asia will be pulling out all our investments in Bell Enterprise."
"What? Is there a need? Why would he oppose Bell Enterprise just because of a woman?" Sean complained unhappily.
Grayson's forehead was damp with cold sweat. He also thought that Mr. Ares's methods were rather excessive.
However, Grayson understood that his president would use whatever means to achieve what he wanted. He had been affected by his president after all, and his innocent heart had been tainted black.
Grayson applied more pressure. "It's not just pulling our investments. We also have the ability to apply certain reasonable economic sanctions on your company. A word of advice, Mr. Bell, don't try to oppose Mr. Ares. After all, there isn't anything in this world that's out of his reach. It's just a matter of whether he wants to take it."
Sean ended the call feeling immensely frustrated.
