Chapter 691 The Final Hope “Hello.”

Keon quickly answered the call. ”Mr. Tacke, it’s you! What can I help?”

However, Keon’s indifferent tone made Robert even more afraid.

“I’ve thought about cooperation. I think Mr. Titus is a reliable partner. How about we find a time to talk

about the details?”

On the other side of the phone, Keon and Murray were in their office. When Murray heard these words,

he crossed his arms around his waist, expecting Robert to fall into the trap.

“Mr. Tacke is indeed a straightforward person. I’ve been waiting for you to say this for a longtime.”

Keon smiled and introduced all his resources to Robert. “Now my company has a stable cash flow.

Don’t worry. As long as we make profits, I will immediately give 80 percent of the funds to you. In other

words, you only need to pay 20 percent of the funds.”

Keon kept pushing Robert. Seeing Robert hesitate, Keon continued to talk about his profit again, “I am

confident that this project will win us big money. We can share the profit. 50 percent for both of us.

What do you think?”

Robert was indeed tempted by Keon’s offer.

So Robert could only nod. “Okay, that’s a deal.”

After hanging up the phone for a while, Robert transferred the funds to Keon. Under Keon’s instigation,

Robert sent away more and more money.

A few days later, Robert received a call from Keon.

These past few days, Keon frequently called Robert. Every time, Keon mentioned cash flow and asked

Robert for more money.

Robert was getting impatient and irrational. He believed Keon’s words, and his money was emptied

step by step.

Looking at Keon’s phone number, Robert fell into deep thought.

“Mr. Tacke, there is good news. This project has finally succeeded. It will bring us money soon. The

project will soon be on the market.”

What Keon said once again gave Robert hope.

Robert’s eyes lit up, and he sat up. “Really? In that case, does it mean that we’ll have a huge market?”

After all, Robert had been paying money for the past few days. Now that the project was successful, it

was time for Robert to gain profits.

“Yes, but…” Keon looked embarrassed. “We still have a long way to go. It takes a long time to be on

the market. And we need to continue the investment at the same time. I am afraid that it’s also a big

cost.”

Robert realized that Keon was going to ask for money from him again.

At that moment, Robert’s money was being emptied by Keon step by step, and Keon was still trying to

get more money from Robert.

“Don’t tell me that your company doesn’t even have any money. I’m the one paying for all the money. I

don’t even see your investment.”

Although Robert raised the question, Keon didn’t answer directly.

“We started the project from scratch. Naturally, we know about the right procedure.”

Seeing that Keon was avoiding the question, Robert instantly realized that something was wrong.

“Tell me, where did my money go?”

As Robert suddenly sensed something wrong, Keon was stunned and replied, “It’s for the construction

of the project.”

“Then since the project hasn’t been finished yet, are the funds still there?”

Keon still tried to avoid the topic and brought up the profits of the project. “Mr. Tacke, if you want to

change your mind, then we can only find someone else to fund this project. But I remind you that there

is such a huge profit in sight.”

Robert fell into long consideration when he heard this.

However, Keon’s project was like an endless hole. From beginning to end, Robert never heard any

news about the project.

This made Robert very uncertain if the project would be as highly profitable as Keon said.

The business was never win-win cooperation. If the project failed, and Robert lost all his money, it

would be a great loss.

Thinking of this, Robert was even more determined.

If the funds were used on the construction project, and the project failed, then Robert’s situation would

only be worse than his current one.

Robert did not dare to gamble with such a big bet.

“What do you say? Mr. Tacke?”

Seeing that Robert had yet to speak, Keon asked Robert’s opinion. But Robert made up his mind. “I

think it’s better to cancel this cooperation. You are asking for too much money. If it was before, I would

support you. Sorry.”

Robert’s excuse was flawless, and Keon couldn’t find a chance to keep on with the cheating.

Robert was very smart. It seemed that this time, he abandoned the idea of working with Keon after a

long thought.

Keon did not force Robert. Instead, Keon nodded and agreed. “Alright, Mr. Tacke. I hope you will not

regret it.”

Robert did not expect Keon to agree so quickly. This surprised Robert.

Due to the investment in the project, Robert thought it might take some time for him to get back his

money. But not long after, Keon transferred the original amount of the funds to Robert’s account.

It was very difficult to withdraw such a large sum of money from the project in a short time. Therefore,

Robert knew that Keon had sent the money from Keon’s account.

Robert didn’t expect Keon to have so much money in Keon’s account.

Looking at the number in his account and thinking of what the receptionist in Star Entertainment said

that day, Robert hesitated again and still

believed Keon was a big client.

If Keon hadn’t started the construction yet, and Keon was using his own money all the time, Robert

wondered if this was some sort of test to prove his trustworthiness.

Everything made Robert fall into deep thought. For a moment, Robert somewhat doubted his judgment.

He began to believe that Keon was not a fraud again.

It also meant that the cooperation between Keon and Robert was over. After hanging up the phone,

Keon went to Murray’s office.

“Mr. Gibson.”

Keon walked into the office with frustration. Murray knew what had happened at one glance.

“Did you fail?”

Murray raised his eyebrows. It seemed that Robert still had some doubts. Otherwise, he would be

broke now.

“Yes.” Keon nodded, not expecting Robert to notice so quickly. “He took all the money back. In order to

prevent him from suspecting, I returned it to him.”

Murray nodded and praised Keon for the clever move.

“I don’t blame you. Robert is a very cautious person. He never does anything harmful to himself.”

Murray was also aware of the result. After all, he had known Robert for a longtime.

“It’s just a pity. If we managed to get all of his money, Robert would be so finished.”

Keon felt a little regretful. However, Murray smiled. “It’s fine. It didn’t work this time. Then we will try

other methods.”

As Murray fell into long thought, Keon nodded. It seemed that Murray still had other plans in his mind.
