Chapter 74 Fulfilling the Bet
"William had swiftly presented over ten purchase agreements, all of them offering embarrassingly low prices for Henry's shares. This was a direct blow to his ego. William intended to teach him a lesson and see if Henry would dare to oppose him again in the future.
Henry's face turned pale, and his expression twisted. Elisa hadn't expected William to be so ruthless, and for a moment, she felt a tinge of fear.!
However, due to the circumstances, Henry had no choice but to sign on thoese numerous purchase agreements. Otherwise, he might be ruined today.
Henry felt pathetic at being was Being forced into such a situation like this in his own hotel, this. was one of the most pathetic days for Henry. After signing the agreements, Henry felt like all his strength had been drained, and he slumped into the chair, completely exhausted.
""Thank you, Henry,"" William said with a slight smile. He collected all the purchase agreements and left with his entourage.
Marcus followed closely behind, gathering the people he had brought with himas well.
""MarcusT, thank you for your help, this timeMarcus,"" William said with a smile. HTruly, he owed Marcus a great deal. Otherwise, he might have met his downfall today.
""It'sJust doing my duty. Take care, Mr. Brown,"" Marcus personally escorted William to the door and opened the car door for him.
Once William bid farewell to Marcus, he drove off straight away.
On the way, William handed the ten-plus agreements to Sharon and asked her to deliver them to Antony. He instructed Antony to take care of the specific details regarding the acquisitions.
The Power Group had been listed as the acquiring party in those agreements, while William In these agreements, William listed the acquiring parties as the Power Group, while he seemingly acted as a representative who signed on their behalf. This would s approach helped conceal his identity and instilled some fear in those influential families.
Even the Sunrise Exhibition, that that was previously under William's name, had been transferred to the Power Group.
After all, the Power Group and Antony haeld considerable influence in New York. If anyone wanted to make a move against William, they would have to think twice.
See Antony's remarkable influence.
""William, you scared me earlier! But how did you meet that personman? He looked so fierce."" Michelle, sitting in the car, was still had a pale face. The thought of the fight earlier made her tense and madeShe was reminded of the fight scene earlier, making her mentally tense and her heart race faster.
""He's Boss Jones's man. I used the boss's influence, and thoese acquired shares I acquired belong to the Power Group as well. I'm just running errands."" William said with a smile. He didn't want to tell let Michelle know foranything right now. If he wanted to hide it from those noble families, he had to hide it from Michelle too.
""Oh, we shouldn’t associate with people like that in the future, let's not associate with such people. They solook too intimidating."" Michelle didn't like Marcus; his appearance and behavior was too ruthless.
""Yeah, I hear 'll listen to you. We'll go to the Bassoon Diner for dinner tonight!"" William was in a good mood today and, planneding to have a candlelit dinner with Michelle and also reward Sharon.
Meanwhile, inside the GOOD HOPEGood Hope Hotel.…
Henry, who had lost most of his shares, was very depressed and irritable, but Lord, who had his headbeen hit twice in the head, was unwilling to leave like thisthings as they were.
""Henry, I've helped you finish this task, Henry. When will you pay me the remaining $1 million, and shouldn't you cover the medical expenses for me and my subordinates as well?""
""You failed, and you have the nerve to talk to me about money?."" Henry couldn't help but feel angry. Lord had been was useless, yet but he wanted payment and medical expenses.
""Fine, don't let me see you again!"" Lord didn't want to push him too hard either., Aafter all, thatis guy had was part of the Foster family backing him. But he wouldn't be so polite the next time they meet, he won't be so polite.
""Let's go!"" Lord covered the wound on his head and led his subordinates straight out.
The security guard in the private room, seeing noticed that Henry's bad mood. He , didn't dare to provoke him any further and wisely retreated silentlyretreated silently.
That left oOnly Elisa was leftin the room with Henry. She didn't know what to do in this situation. It was unlikely that Henry would invest in her family now, but she was still unwilling to give up. After all, Henry still had $1 billion in cash flow.
""Don’t give up, Henry, don't lose heart. After all, you still have $1 billion in your hands. How aboutWhy don’t you investing in myour family's industry? I can help you make more money.""
Elisa wasn't genuinely really trying to help him; she was only eyeing the his $1 billion in his hands. If it wasn't for this money, Elisa would probably have left long ago.
"Any investment "iBased on your family's industry , any investment would end up in losses. No idiot in New York would invest in your family. You’d better give up on that idea."" Henry was getting angrier seeing when he saw how bold Elisa was's audacity. He had almost lost all his fortune, butand she still wanted him to invest his money in her family business. He only had this a last final card left, and there was no way he wcould use it on Elisa no matter what.
At this moment, he realized that he would only be able to get revenge .
Revenge could only be sought through the power of the family. As for Elisa, she no longer held much value for him,, especially considering thatsince her family was on the verge of bankruptcy. Henry didn’’t want to experience any of thatose troubles when that happened.
Hearing this, Elisa lost all hope and grew angry with Henry. She realized that Henry had never intended to invest in her family and had merely used her to pursue Michelle. After all her hard work, it was had been all for nothing. She had even lost Michelle's trust, and she had been; someone she considered a sister. Thinking about this, Elisa couldn't help but feel regret and despair. Her future was not looking that good.
That evening, William took Michelle and Sharon to celebrate at the Bassoon Diner. The ambiance was wonderful, and the food was delicious. Even someone with a small appetite like Michelle managed to eat a lot and made sure to show off on her social media..
""William, the food at Bassoon Diner is really delicious, but it's just too expensive!"" Michelle couldn't help but express her surprise.
""If you want to eat here, I can bring you every day,"" William laughed. He didn't care about the money at the moment.
""No, you work hard for your money. Let's go to my house next time. My dad keeps urging telling me to bring you over. He really wants to see you,"" Michelle chuckled and teasingly handed William a bottle of mineral water. ""WilliamH, help me twist it open it, William!""
William couldn't help but smile and gladly unscrewed the bottle cap for Michelle.
As they walked out and reached the entrance, they came across a distraught Elisa who was waiting there..
""Elisa!"" Michelle was the first to notice her and hurriedly ran over. ""What are you doing here? Aren't you with that waste of spaceuseless man?""
Following William, Michelle had started calling Henry a useless man, just like William. also referred to Henry as a waste of space.
""I came after seeing the address on your social media,"" Elisa paused for a moment before gathering her courage. ""I’m sorry for what I did before, Michelle, I apologize for what I did before. CBut now, can you do me a favor?""
""A favor? What kind of favor?"" Michelle asked, genuinely concerned.
""My father's company is on the verge of a financial collapse, and our family is about to go bankrupt. Can you please ask your father to provide give us some financial support?"" Elisa practically begged.
""Financial support? But my dad has already invested all his money in the East district development project. He doesn't have any money left,"" Michelle replied , feeling helplessly. She wanted to help Elisa, but she couldn’tdidn't have the means to do so.
Elisa had anticipated this outcome, but it only added to her despair.
""You guys go ahead and have fun. I won't disturb you any longer,more!"" Elisa said as she turned to leave. , while Michelle couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions.
Michelle then thought aboutof William.
""William, isn't Antony your boss Antony? He must have a way to help. Please help Elisa,"" she said.
When Elisa heard that William's boss was Antony, a prominent figure in New York, she was slightly surprised. No wonderSo that was why Marcus, who dominateds the South district, was helping William. It now appeared that William had probably acquired the shares William tookhe had taken from Henry were probably acquired on behalf of Antony.
""I'm just a poor person from a poverty-stricken area. How couldan I ask Boss Jones for help?"" William honestly didn't want to help Elisa. She had helped that worthless manperson sabotage him multiple times, and he was already being generous by not seeking revenge.
HMoreover, he had also said thatis to Elisa on purpose. She had been humiliating William all along, saying that he wasn't worthy of being with the beautiful and wealthy Michelle being since he was a poor person from a poverty-stricken area, he wasn't worthy of being with the beautiful and wealthy Michelle. Now, William used her words to humiliate her in return.
Elisa felt ashamed and regretful for regretted all the insults she had hurled at William before. SHowever, she knew that if she could get Antony to intervene, her family would be saved. This might be their only hope.
With these thoughts, Elisa was no longer concerned about anything else and knelt directly in front of William to, apologizeing.
"I was wrong for what I did before, "William, I was wrong before. I'm sorry! I hope you can forgive me for Michelle's sake. Please, please help me this time. I'm begging you..."""
