Chapter 570
Lord Protector Novel
But even so, these two are still not enough to tackle Chase Bank head on.
Caleb stood up. âEclipse and Hades, what a coincidence. I didnât expect to meet you here,â he politely greeted.
Both the elderly men stared at him in shock. âOh, Mr. Nolan. Youâre here. It is indeed a coincidence.â
âHave a seat. Are you also friends with young Williams here?â
Caleb smiled. âMore like a business partner. I was just discussing business matters with him.â
âIs that so? Hearing you say that reminded me to talk about business with you too,â Hades replied.
âThank you for seeing me worthy to talk business with you, Hades. May I know what kind of business would you like to talk to me about?â Caleb asked with a smile.
âItâs actually not that big of a deal. As far as I know, the money that I saved for my emergency funds in your bank is thirty billion. If not, then it at least should be more than twenty billion,â Hades replied.
âIâm in a rush for money. So I need your help to withdraw every single penny from that account today.â
âDonât worry. Your hard work will be rewarded.â
Caleb frowned deeply.
Withdrawing more than twenty billion at once will cause tremendous losses to the bank.
Why did he choose to withdraw the money today out of all days? Somethingâs fishy here.
He stole a glance at Zeke and found the latter scrolling through his phone in a bored manner, seemingly unconcerned about what was going on right now.
âHades, may I know what the money is for?â Caleb asked in a low voice.
âYouâre our biggest client and if you need our help, we will spare no effort in helping you.â
âIf itâs not necessary, donât withdraw all the money at once.â
Hades feigned anxiousness. âWhat do you mean by this, Mr. Nolan?â
âIs the bank in some kind of difficulty that withdrawing money is hard?â
Caleb smiled bitterly. âEven if a company has strong wealth. Withdrawing more than twenty billion at once will definitely affect the companyâs capital turnover.â
âOf course, if you insist, weâll try our best to fulfil your request even if itâs difficult for us today.â
Hades nodded. âOh. Itâs actually not really that important.â
âItâs because young Zeke here owes someone and Iâm withdrawing my money to lend it to him so that he can repay them.â
Realization dawned on Caleb and he understood everything now.
Turns out Williams is really smart.
He isnât using Hadesâs power to put pressure on me, but his money.
If Hades withdraws more than twenty billion today, Chase Bank will surely lose more than that.
If I donât force Zeke to pay the debts, not only will Hades not withdraw the money, but I can also ask Jacob for the two billion loan. With that, we will not lose a single dime.
Almost instantly, Caleb made a decision.
It was only natural that he would choose the latter option.
Even though it would be detrimental to Jacobâs interests. But what is brotherhood in the face of absolute interest?
Caleb beamed. âHow foolish of me to have made this a big problem when itâs not.â
âMr. Williams, I wonât force you to pay the loan anymore. Then, does that mean you no longer have the need to withdraw the money, Hades?â
The latter nodded. âIf young Zeke here has no need to use the money, then itâs obvious I wonât withdraw.â
âOkay, then. I wonât bother you about the loan anymore, Mr. Williams,â Caleb uttered.
âItâs not a big deal, Iâll ask Jacob to pay for it instead.â
Zeke suddenly waved his hand. âIs it okay to do that? A two billion loan isnât just something that can be done away like that just because you say so. Wouldnât it bring harm to your interests?â
âMr. Nolan, the loan should be repaid, and it should be done uprightly and legally.â
âMr. Williams, what do you mean with that?â Caleb frowned.
