Chapter 288: One Hundred Billion is Not Enough? Then One Trillion!



Sherry Jones looked serious, wanting to rebut, but couldn’t find the words.

Because she wasn’t sure either, whether this was all a scene orchestrated by Beckett.

The crowd below the stage resumed their disgusted expressions after hearing Grandy Anderson’s words.

Obviously, they thought Grandy Anderson’s words made sense.

If Sherry Jones dared to join the asset verification with a fake check, it would be completely normal for her to invite two people to accompany her in the act.

But, how could she escape their legal scrutiny with such a trick?

For a moment, the crowd below the stage became indignant once again, and many people were eager to kick Sherry Jones out.

Seeing this, Sherry Jones’s expression became more uneasy.

While Sherry Jones was at a loss, Beckett, who was standing behind her, suddenly chuckled after hearing Grandy Anderson’s words, “Heh… stubborn ignorance!”

Upon hearing this, Grandy Anderson retorted confidently, “Calling me stubbornly ignorant? I think the stubborn one is Sherry Jones!

Sherry Jones, I know a few bank presidents too. Would you dare to show them your check?”

At her words, the crowd below the stage began to stir even more.

“That’s right, Sherry Jones. Do you dare to authenticate your check with other banks?”

“Heh heh… Sherry Jones, while there’s still room to back off now, pack up and get lost! Otherwise, you won’t have the chance to regret it.”

“Look at her terrified expression. There’s definitely something fishy about the check in her hand. She won’t dare to let others verify it, because she knows that it will give them away with just one check.”

This…

Hearing these harsh words, Sherry Jones’s eyes began to waver and she glanced at Beckett without much confidence, who nodded silently.

Getting Beckett’s response, Sherry Jones took a deep breath, and then plucked up the courage to say: “Verify it then!”

Upon hearing this, a triumphant smile appeared on Grandy Anderson’s face. “See, Sherry Jones, you brought this upon yourself!” she said mockingly.

Then, she pulls out her phone, pulls together all the bank presidents she knows into one group, and directly sets up a video call.

The next moment, four or five middle-aged men in sharply tailored suits appeared on her phone screen.

“Presidents, I need your help with something. Could you please verify the authenticity of this check for me?” With a sneer, Grandy Anderson immediately handed over the check number.

At first, these presidents were reluctant to get involved, but when they saw David Herb standing on stage, they immediately started to work on it enthusiastically.

What’s more, they directed their cameras at their computer screens and streamed the verification process live.

With a universal internal network system among major banks, the verification process was not difficult.

Soon, the same result appeared on the screens of all the presidents.

Check amount: Ten billion!

The check number, holder, and fund amount were all correct.

The check was real!

The moment she saw the result, Grandy Anderson was stunned on the spot, her pretty face disbelief.

“How…how is this possible? How can Beckett have so much money? Why… why…” At this moment, Grandy Anderson felt a buzzing in her head.

It was as if she had been hit by a heavy hammer, and her expression gradually morphed into one of shock.

The faces of the people below the stage did not look any better either.

If Beckett’s slap in the face hadn’t woken them up, then the slap of humiliation on Grandy Anderson’s face could almost have made their faces swollen.

Seeing this, Sherry Jones took a deep breath of relief, the huge boulder in her heart finally lifted.

Then, David Herb declared: “Miss Jones’ funding amount is ten billion. Asset verification has been successful!”

When this statement fell, it was final!

Hearing these words, Grandy Anderson’s face looked as if she had swallowed a hundred dead rats, unsightly to the extreme.

At this time, Alan Austin, who had been sitting next to Grandy Anderson and remaining silent, slowly rose to his feet and glanced contemptuously at Sherry Jones and Beckett on stage.

Then, Alan Austin nonchalantly said to Grandy Anderson: “It’s just ten billion, can’t become a big climate.”

Upon hearing this, Grandy Anderson immediately came to her senses.

That’s right, no matter how impressive Sherry Jones is, she only has ten billion.

Don’t forget, they, the Imperial Group, now have fifty billion on hand, which is the highest funding amount in the field. No one can compare with them.

With the mere ten billion in Sherry Jones’s hands, any random person in this field has more funds than her.

What does she have to compare with them?

With these thoughts, Grandy Anderson once again put a disdainful expression on her face.

“Hmph! Just ten billion, showing your capabilities. What’s the big deal?” With a cold snort, Grandy Anderson continued, “Do you think you can win the Nezzi New City project with this mere ten billion?

Heh… don’t forget, our Imperial Group has funds that are five times of yours. How can you compete with us?

Even if you get away today, so what? It’s only letting you and White Mitchell live a few more days. The ten billion is utterly insufficient.”

“You!”

This left Sherry Jones tongue-tied, grinding her teeth in frustration.

Seeing Sherry Jones flustered, Grandy Anderson’s smirk became even louder. Her sharp and bitter laughter filled the entire venue, seeming extremely harsh.

At this moment, a voice came from the earpiece that Beckett was wearing: “Fattie, add more funds. If ten billion is not enough, then let’s make it a hundred billion!”

This voice naturally came from White Mitchell.

He didn’t originally want to inject such a large amount of funds into Sherry Jones at once. But since Grandy Anderson had put forward her face, how could he not retaliate?

Moreover, how could White Mitchell just watch his woman being insulted?

As soon as White Mitchell finished speaking, Beckett immediately relayed his words, “Since ten billion is not enough, on behalf of my boss, I will add a hundred billion funds!”

A hundred billion?

At his words, even Sherry Jones was scared and stood still. Grandy Anderson laughed out loud from the stage below.

“Hahaha…A hundred billion? Wow, that’s a big mouth. Did you eat garlic this morning?” Grandy Anderson said, ridiculing openly.

Then, Grandy Anderson turned to Sherry Jones: “Sherry Jones, even Beckett has said so much, don’t you, the protagonist, have anything to say?

Hahaha…do you also think the braggart Beckett is belching too much hot air that even you can’t back it up?

A hundred billion, haha… do you guys really think it’s a hundred dollars? In the whole of Sayon, who can come up with a hundred billion so easily? Sherry Jones, do draft a script before you let someone brag next time, hahaha…”

The sharp laughter echoed throughout the venue.

However, Beckett ignored the laughter from the beginning and quietly said to Sherry Jones, “Miss Jones, check your phone.”
