Chapter 115 Mr. Clancy's Scheme
Jacob sneered, "Do you think I would sign this? And for free? Benoit, what dream are you having?"
"You will!" Benoit said, laughing confidently, and made a gesture towards Manley.
Immediately, Manley opened his tablet and pulled up a surveillance video.
Benoit pointed at the video and explained, "This is the evidence of my sister-in-law's illicit lending every time she enters the loan shark company. And every transaction is recorded. If I were to give this to the police..."
"Are you threatening me?" Jacob's eyes flickered with a hint of coldness.
"Little Mr. Clancy, calm down. This isn't a threat. This is me helping you analyze the pros and cons." Benoit smiled warmly and continued, "You see, your daughter openly commits crimes. Whose face is she slapping? Your old face!"
Jacob's face twitched.
Benoit added, "As far as I know, Clancy Group has recently launched a financial lending product. The product has received a great response, and your son wants to capitalize on it by taking the subsidiary company public."
Benoit continued, "If this video were to be leaked, people would accuse the small Clancy Group of operating as loan sharks under the guise of financial products. At that time, regardless of the truth, your company's stocks will plummet, and the subsidiary's IPO plan will also be ruined. The interests at stake here are worth more than just this piece of land..."
"You..." Jacob's anger surged. He picked up the document and glanced at it before signing his name hastily.
After signing, Jacob angrily threw the pen at Benoit.
Benoit skillfully caught the pen flying towards his face and shouted, "Hold on!"
"What else do you want to do, punk! Don't push your luck!"
"Outrageous!" Jacob had completely lost his temper.
At this moment, Kate politely handed over a pair of oranges.
"These were specially prepared for you by Mr. Clancy before he left! Best wishes to you," she said sincerely. "Mr. Clancy could have harmed you, but he still gave you oranges."
"Hmpf!" Jacob glared at the oranges, grunted, and walked away.
As Jacob left, Benoit looked satisfied while holding a document. He explained everything to Queenie.
"The Clancy Group has a trillion-dollar joint wind energy project with Country D, focused on environmental protection. If this project proceeds, not only will the electricity costs for the public decrease, but the power generation process will also be more environment friendly and pollution-free. It's a project that benefits the country and the people with sustainable development.”
“However, the project planning requires the use of sister-in-law's two plots of land, and their family has refused to hand over the land, demanding exorbitant prices. This led to the project being put on hold for two years..."
Queenie nodded, also approving of this environmental project. "So, you took the opportunity to acquire one of their plots of land. But didn't you say you needed two plots?"
Benoit chuckled lightly. "Lilith is not worth two plots of land. If the asking price is too high, Jacob will expose our plans."
Queenie nodded and pretended to be angry. "Benoit, you said you came to vent for me, but it turns out you came for the company's benefit."
Benoit chuckled and said, "This is indeed venting for you. I just killed two birds with one stone. With my status, can I fight Lilith?"
Queenie shook her head.
"You're right. Lilith is my sister-in-law. My parents have always advocated for family harmony. As long as my second brother doesn't consider divorce, Lilith will always be my sister-in-law. Ethically, I can't argue with her."
Listening to Benoit's analysis, Queenie also found it reasonable.
"But, it's reasonable for a daughter to carry out her father's teachings. If I make Jacob suffer, he will naturally go and slap Lilith. From an ethical standpoint, there would be no problem."
Queenie thought to herself, “This person is so meticulous!”
Benoit smiled politely. "Let's go, let's go tease my sister-in-law at Clancy Villa."
