Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 75

Sydney pondered for a few seconds. "Alright. You go and negotiate with the presidents of these banks again. See if you can change their minds. Along the way, try to find out whether it's Brandon Madden behind this whole thing."

"Okay," Sophie answered and then thought of something. "Should I tell President Chase about this?"

"No." Sydney shook her head. "Luke has to look after his own company recently. I don't want to trouble him."

"Understood."

Shortly after Sophie left, Sharon came in from the finance department.

"President Raines, what the hell is going on? I just received calls from several banks asking us to pay off the loan right away. It hasn't been long since we took the loan, and it's not time to pay it back yet. Why are they making us pay it back now?" Sharon walked up to Sydney's desk and asked.

Sydney pinched the bridge of her nose. "Can't you tell? We're being targeted."

"By who?" Sharon slammed her hands on the desk.

A cold glint flashed in Sydney's eyes. "The only suspect now is Brandon Madden, but there's no evidence yet."

"Finding evidence isn't important. The most urgent task now is to solve the current financial problems. The main funds supporting Skylight's operations come from those loans. If we pay back the loans, Skylight will immediately go bankrupt," Sharon said in frustration.

Sydney pursed her red lips.

She knew the seriousness of the matter.

"President Raines." There was another knock on the door.

Sydney looked over.

Sophie stood at the door, shaking her head with regret. "I’ve negotiated with the presidents of the banks, but the banks that haven't lent us anything said they won't lend us anything, and the few that have already lent us money are determined to make us pay back the loan immediately. What should we do, President Raines?"

Sydney clenched her fists and asked instead, "Did they say whether it was Brandon who told them to do so?"

"No. I asked them, but they were very vague. It seemed as if they were afraid of something," Sophie answered.

"Banks work under the state. How can they be afraid of the owner of a private enterprise?" Sharon frowned.

Sydney narrowed her eyes. "Unless the person who ordered them isn't Brandon but someone in the government."

"President Raines, when did you offend a government official?" Sharon asked solemnly.

Sydney shook her head blankly. "I don't know."

She had just recently made a deal with the official authorities regarding the land.

However, she had not offended them.

"Forget it. We'll think about that later. President Raines, let's hurry up and solve the matter of funding first," Sharon said.

Sydney closed her eyes somewhat tiredly. "Sophie, contact the presidents of the banks that have already granted us loans and say that I would like to invite them to dinner at Cosmos Hotel."

She could forget about the banks that had not lent them money, but she had to make the banks that had lent them money forget about making them repay the loan now. Otherwise, Skylight would really be doomed.

"Okay." Sophie nodded.

Sydney looked at Sharon. "Bring out the loan contracts from before and come with me."

"Got it." Sharon hummed.

An hour later, the two arrived at Cosmos Hotel.

It was the only seven-star hotel in Port City, and it belonged to Ferguson Corporation.

The most basic meal here could cost an ordinary family's annual income.

Furthermore, Sydney had booked a private room and ordered a lot of high-grade dishes to entertain those bank presidents. Her gestures were very sincere.

The bank presidents enjoyed such top-notch treatment and could not simply remain silent, so they finally revealed that the person who was targeting her had the last name 'Graham'.

"President Raines, there's only one powerful Graham I know, and that's the Graham family of South Lake." Sharon turned to the side and whispered in Sydney's ear.

Sydney clenched the wine glass in her hand, her bright face icy cold. "It's Macy Graham."
