When She Stops Playing Nice
Chapter 450
âThey just want to go against me, donât they?â Harry fumed as his chest heaved with anger.
Ibrahim remained silent while awkwardly looking away. Truth be told, it was Harry who had issues with Gina and Gabriel from the beginning.
âHow does the buyer want to resolve this?â Harry asked angrily.
âHe wants us to compensate with 100 million dollars,â Ibrahim replied truthfully.
â100 million dollars? Is he out of his mind?â Harry was so angry that he laughed bitterly.
âThe person paid us 20 million dollars to buy o**n*s, and now he wants to tum the tables and make money coff us?â Harry was furious. âIâm not someone they can push around.â
Ibrahim hesitated before reminding. âBut heâs from a foreign royal family, Mr. Jackson. If we sour relations with him, it wonât be beneficial to us.â
âSo, youâre suggesting I pay this 100 million dollars? Do I look like a fool to you?â Harry retorted. âJust because they say 100 million, we have to pay them the money?â Harry asked incredulously.
He continued, âIbrahim, I brought you in to help me solve problems. Now that weâre in this situation, shouldnât you be figuring out a solution instead of just asking me to pay up? What use are you if all you do is tell me to throw money at the problem?â
Harry had already spent 200 million dollars getting Ashley treated by Gina, which was a huge expense to him.
Now being asked for another 100 million was pushing it and he could not take it anymore,
Speaking of which, Harry started to blame Gina and the others for meddling. The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, clutching his chest while saying, âI should have killed them long ago.â
Harry felt extremely regretful as it was too late.
He once thought that since Gabriel was predicted by doctors to die from o**n failure by the age of 30, he would spare Gabriel due to some semblance of familial ties.
He had refrained from taking action against Gabriel, thinking that he would naturally die from o**n failure. As for Neil, Harry had made several attempts
to harm him but failed.
If Gina had not saved Neil at that time, Neil would have died long ago.
Harry knew there was no turning back for him now. Since Gina and Gabriel were still investigating Emilyâs death, Gabriel surely wouldnât let him live upon discovering the truth,
Without any choice, Neil thought of killing them.
Ibrahim poured Harry a cup of coffee, trying to calm him down. âMr. Jackson, letâs calm down first. I was thinking of a solution just now, and I believe
have a viable one.â
âSpeak up. Stop beating around the bush.â Harry was getting impatient.
Ibrahim replied, âIâm sorry, Mr. Jackson, but the 100 million dollars compensation is necessary, considering itâs our fault the deal fell through. However, you donât necessarily have to foot the billâ
Harry laughed ironically and responded, âSo, do you mean that you want to help me pay for this? I donât mind if youâre so kind.â
Ibrahim smiled awkwardly as he couldnât afford to pay, but he had a perfect scapegoat in mind.
âNo, Mr. Jackson, Iâm not suggesting I pay. Itâs Ethan.â Ibrahim continued, âEthan has thrived under your care, becoming a successful young talent and

even making it onto the rich list. Heâs now enjoying great success. Without your help, he wouldnât have achieved his current fame and status. So, I think
itâs time for him to repay you.â
Ibrahimâs words reminded Harry,
Although Harry!
Harry had already taken advantage of Ethan once, he felt that he didnât need to be that polite with Ethan.
âHe should repay me, indeed. But how should I approach him about this? Should I tell him I need to borrow money from him? I canât tell him about this business, can 17 Harry said, looking at ibrahim.
Ibrahim knew that Harry had been expecting him to handle the mess. He had been cleaning up Harryâs messes for a long time and it was exhausting. However, he had no choice because Harry was his savior.
He and Harry were already tied together, inseparable.
After thinking for a moment, Ibrahim clapped his thigh and said, âMr. Jackson, maybe you can call Ethan and ask him to come over. Leave the rest to me, but youâll need to cooperate with me and play along.â
âAlright.â
Half an hour later, Ethan arrived at Harryâs house as quickly as possible.
As soon as he entered, he saw Harry sitting on the sofa, clutching his chest, his face flushed, seemingly in distress,
Ethan was taken aback upon noticing this. He glanced at Ibrahim, who was also present, and then hurried forward to ask with concern, âHarry, whatâs wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Or are you upset about Ashleyâs miscarriage? I knew about her miscarriage earlier, but Iâve been so busy with work lately that I havenât had a chance to visit you two. Itâs my fault.â
In reality, Ethan had been busy living it up, with no intention of visiting Ashley. After all, she had never shown much care for him either.
Harry waved his hand and sighed. âNo, itâs not about Ashley.
Ethan immediately asked, âThen, are you feeling unwell?â
After saying, he turned to reprimand Ibrahim, âWhat are you doing just sitting here? If Harry isnât feeling well, shouldnât you take him to the hospital immediately?â
Ibrahim inwardly sneered at Ethanâs display of respect towards Harry, thinking that the young fool had no idea he was about to be used again.
Ibrahim looked at Ethan as if he was watching a comedy.
Then, he put on an apologetic look and stood up, saying, âIâm sorry, Mr. Ethan, Itâs not that I didnât want to take Mr. Harry to the hospital.
âBut m e n t l problem requires a remedy for the heart. Mr. Harry is not distressed because of physical discomfort, but because of something thatâs troubling him deeplyâ
âIâve tried to console Mr. Harry, but heâs still very depressed, and Iâm at my wits end. It seems Mr. Harry called you because he believes you are the one who can solve his problems. Iâm simply powerless here.â
With a slight compliment, Ibrahim made Ethan feel elated.
Instantly, Ethanâs confidence swelled, and he displayed an attitude of being able to handle anything and overcome any challenge, saying to Harry, âHarry, tell me whatâs troubling you. Iâm no longer the useless Ethan I used to be
âIâve made something of myself now, so if you need my help, just tell me, okay? Youâve helped me so much, and I should repay you.â
