Chapter 197 Nothing To Do With You
“I agree,” one of Jennifer’s uncles quipped.
“Yes. I don’t have a lot of cash flow, but I can offer one or two million. We should follow Christian’s instructions if we want to do financing,” said another elder.
“We’ll follow Christian’s words,” all the other family members agreed.
Everyone turned to look at Jennifer and waited for her reply, even her parents, Leonard and Linda.
Although the Wilson family had not developed very well and was not an influential family, there were a lot of people in the eighth branch, so it was still a rather strong branch.
Two forces could create trouble for a project and slow down its progress. First, the criminal underworld, and second, the force of a united clan.
Biting her lip, Jennifer asked, “What if I don’t agree?”
Christian sneered, “I remember one area of your land reclamation project was originally the mausoleum of the Wilson family’s eighth branch, right?”
“You all sold that land to Jim a long time ago, and Jim sold it to another buyer. Now, it is a base for seaweed farming. It has nothing to do with the Wilson family,” retorted Jennifer, widening her eyes.
“As long as I say it is related, it is related! Though the eighth branch of the Wilson family is not a prominent family, it still consists of five to six hundred people. If this huge group of people creates an uproar and petition the government, who do you think will be on the losing side?” Christian threatened.
Instantly, Jennifer felt like she was enveloped in ice.
If five to six hundred people join together and stir up trouble, someone will step forward and smooth things over. At the end of the day, I will be at a disadvantage! Besides, the project duration is only three months. Now that I’ve won the bid, everyone is targeting me! First, it’s Nigel. Now, it’s the entire eighth branch of the Wilson family!
Suddenly, Donald spoke. “I remember that land was acquired by the government three months ago, and ten million was paid as compensation. It really has nothing to do with the eighth branch anymore.”
Immediately, Christian glared at Donald. “Who are you?”
Donald looked at Christian, and an unexplainable chill ran down the latter’s spine.
“I know you. You’re one of the abandoned children of the Campbell clan, Donald Campbell, right? You’re also Jennifer’s ex-husband, and you divorced Jennifer a month ago. Currently, you are a security guard,” commented Samuel, pushing up his spectacles.
“What else do you know?” Donald asked, turning to look at him.
Samuel wore a black patterned suit, gold-rimmed spectacles, and a gold Rolex watch. Playing with his Maybach car key, he looked like a developer of a large project.
“I want to add that you aren’t worthy enough to stand here and speak to me. Someone like you won’t be able to find another job other than being a security guard. My company won’t ever hire you. Oh, and I believe you don’t know me. You must have heard of Sapphire Residences, right? It is a high-end neighborhood, and the average price is around tens of thousands. Five hundred of the renovation projects there are under my company,” Samuel announced with a mocking tone.
“Exactly! You’re trash compared to my Samuel!” Samuel’s wife, Lily Wilson chimed in. She wore a sexy dress coupled with a pair of large sunglasses and a limited edition white hat. Hanging on her arm was the newest LV handbag.
“Once this project is finished, Samuel can earn at least ten million! How long will you need to earn ten million? Maybe five hundred years! Meanwhile, Samuel only needs five months!” Christian declared proudly.
“But I remember the project at Sapphire Residences was given to Daniel by Zayne,” Donald rebutted.
Previously, I made Daniel the legal person of Stellar Corporation. To suck up to me, Zayne even gave Daniel the business project of renovating three thousand apartments.
