Chapter 238 Preparing to Exchange for a Person
William staged a play with Antony and instantly stunned everyone present. Even Julia was a bit surprised. This seemingly ordinary William was actually so talented. It was as if with just a nod, his net worth could exceed a hundred billion dollars. It was truly impressive.
"William, why did you give up such a great opportunity?" Oscar asked curiously after personally pouring a glass of wine for William, his attitude toward William doing a 180-degree turn.
In fact, Xavier and Dominic also wanted to ask the same question. How could he refuse such a good opportunity? If it were them, they would have definitely accepted it. Five billion dollars for only a 20% stake is an offer no fool would reject.
"I'm not like some people who boast about their net worth all the time and show off whenever they achieve something. I believe in being genuine and doing what I love. There's no need to chase after fame and fortune," William said lightly.
His words clearly referred to Xavier and Dominic, making them feel embarrassed!
Halfway through the meal, they found an excuse to leave. Compared to William, they felt insignificant.
Michelle was probably the happiest one there. Regardless, William had slapped their faces and made her believe that everything he did was right.
After dinner, William went straight back to Garden Villa. Tomorrow was the day he would trade Yohan with the Graham family, so he had to prepare well.
Sitting on the sofa at Garden Villa, William absentmindedly looked at his phone and read the information Antony had sent him about the Graham family and Hope Hall.
The Graham family still held considerable power on Long Island.
In terms of power, the Graham family is a large conglomerate with a market value of over a billion dollars, and their main industries are concentrated in the entertainment sector, such as culture and film. More than half of the movie theaters in Long Island are basically run by the Graham family, which highlights their prominent position in the entertainment industry in Long Island.
"Next month, Sophia will be having her concert, so we need to quickly find out how many people they have arranged at the venue. This way, we can strategize more effectively." William furrowed his brow. This operation was not only about rescuing Sophia but also about capturing all the Graham family members involved in her kidnapping to prevent future trouble.
Tomorrow's transaction at Hope Hall would be a good entry point.
"I wonder what kind of people will be sent from the Graham family to negotiate with me this time," William thought to himself. "For a new singer like Sophia, the Graham family probably won't send high-ranking individuals. It might just be the younger generation coming to chase me away. I should have Antony and Ralph send more people over, and then we'll see if we need to capture this person from the Graham family."
The next morning, Baca, whom William hadn't seen in a long time, arrived at Garden Villa with two others.
When William saw Baca coming, a hint of joy flashed across his face.
"Baca, why are you here?" he asked.
"Mr. Brown, Boss Jones asked me to come and protect you. And these two are Maxwell and Tristan, a pair of brothers who were carefully selected as the strongest fighters in the martial arts gym," Baca introduced the two similar-looking brothers.
"Not bad!" William assessed the brothers with a glance. They had a strong presence, indicating that they had reached the edge of superhuman abilities and were not weak.
It seemed that the effects of opening the martial arts gym were gradually manifesting. With the training provided by the gym, there would be more and more skilled fighters. As the gym continued to grow, more and more strong individuals would join, gradually strengthening William's own influence. It was a positive cycle.
"Have all the arrangements been made for Hope Hall?" William asked with a serious expression.
"Everything is in order. We have positioned a hundred of our people in the vicinity, including twenty from our martial arts gym. Each of them can handle ten opponents without a problem," Baca said confidently.
William nodded, quite satisfied with Antony's efficiency in handling things.
"Alright, let's go," William said, and they left.
William walked forward, followed by Baca and the two brothers, Maxwell and Tristan. Once they got inside the van, William saw Yohan there, bound and gagged.
Yohan looked terrified when he saw William enter and remained silent, cowering in a corner.
William paid no attention to him and instructed Baca to drive straight to Hope Hall.
When they arrived, they found several people, whom Baca had prepared in advance, positioned around the area.
"Let's go inside. Leave Yohan in the car with someone watching over him," William ordered. He then proceeded to walk inside on his own, with Baca following closely behind, and Maxwell and Tristan following suit.
There were two security guards at the entrance, along with Yohan's manager Roger.
Upon William's arrival, Roger arrogantly exclaimed, "You dare show up, you bastard! Where's Yohan?"
"We'll release him once the conditions have been met," William replied calmly.
"Fine, come with me." Roger's face grew cold and sinister. With the Graham family's people already inside, they could ensure that these four would go in but not come out, settling the score later.
William wasn't afraid and followed Roger inside.
Roger led William and the others into the garden, where at least twenty well-built guards were stationed. In the midst of them sat a teenager wearing a dark red coat.
This young man possessed delicate features and was quite attractive.
"Can a man really be this good-looking?" William felt dazzled.
"Please have a seat and have some tea." The young man glanced at William, softly parting his thin lips, his voice equally pleasing.
Upon hearing this somewhat endearing voice, William's whole body prickled with discomfort. Could this individual be transgender?
