“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.
