Chapter 505
“Alright, 15 million, and it have Shawn in the lead role. But are you sure you can cough up that much cash?”
Maja nodded, “As long as you agree, the money will be in your account by tomorrow”
“Are you into Shawn?”
“1 just appreciate his talent.”
Tyler found that even more amusing. He loved watching those kinds of dramas unfold.
“Okay, we have a deal. Have the money in my account by 9 am tomorrow. Once I get the payment, I’ll notify Shawn that he’s our leading man.”
A wave of delight washed over Maja’s face, her lips curled into a smile, “Thank you, Tyler. Can I treat you to dinner?”
Tyler leaned back in his chair, No need. You can leave. I still have a date to attend to.”
The stress he had been holding back was making him feel uneasy
Maja jumped up, like she had just sat on hot coals, nodded hurriedly, and rushed out, Meanwhile, on the other side, lan had already alerted the Jewelry Exhibition Center The center’s staff had just personally delivered a gift to the hotel.
“Mr. Raymond, this is our newly arrived bracelet”
The box was placed into lan’s hands.
lan opened it for inspection and immediately recognized the familiar piece.
The center’s staff continued, “This bracelet has just returned from an international exhibition. It’s one of a kind.”
lan had initially thought they had made a mistake and sent a duplicate piece
Now hearing that it was the only one of its kind, his eyes suddenly turned cold. “Where did this bracelet come from?”
The staff member flinched at his intimidating aura and took a step back
“We just got it from the second–hand market. Many customers are interested in it, and since you needed one, we decided to show this to you.”
lan took a deep breath, surprised that he hadn’t lost his temper yet.
He instructed Jeff to make the payment, then closed the door.
lan got in touch with Fitch.
Only a select few knew that the Greenfield second–hand market was a Haskins family business.
“Look up the transaction price of this bracelet for me,” he sent a picture to Fitch
Fitch recognized it instantly and replied, “15 million”
lan looked at the number and calmly sat down.
Great, the price of the bracelet had dropped by 5 million in just a few days
A flame of anger ignited in his chest as he carelessly tossed the bracelet to the side
Despite his anger, he found himself making excuses for Maja.
Maybe she was in financial trouble, or perhaps her family had encountered some issues.
But just then, Tyler called him.
“lan, there’s something you should know.”
lan was already fuming, but he was still holding it inside.
“What is it?”
“Penny just invested 15 million for Shawn. Didn’t you ask me to drop him? She just casually dropped 15 million to have him as the lead. I agreed, but I’m a bit taken aback, from where did she get all that money?”
lan’s internal bomb detonated.
Maja had sold the bracelet he gave her and then invested in Shawn.
When had his affections been so disrespected?
lan took a deep breath, his eyes twitching with anger.
And Tyler was still adding fuel to the fire.
“This money didn’t come from you, did it? You’re quite generous, giving her money to chase after Shown.”
“Get lost!”
lan hung up, feeling a rage like never before as if he were on fire.
Tyler, hearing lan’s furious voice, couldn’t help but feel a bit sympathetic.
Who could do such a thing? Penny was really something.
Tyler used to admire lan’s wife, who sued Edith with just a piece of paper.
922
Tan’s money to pursue Shawn.
They both had quite the guts.
lan sat on the couch, the room was filled with his suppressed fury
His anger rolled like a boiling kettle.
He took another deep breath, picked up his phone, and texted Maja.
“Do you still like the bracelet | gave you?”
Maja, who had just finished her meeting with Tyler and was in a good mood, was about to drive home when she casually replied,
“I love it, thank you, Mr. Raymond”
“Bang!”
lan hurled his phone at the wall
Outside the door, Jeff was about to come in when he heard the noise and quickly retrated.
That was not a good time to walk into the lion’s den
The phone screen had shattered into a spider’s web.
lan sat quietly for ten minutes before walking over to pick up the phone again.
He sent her another message.
“Come over. Round seven”
