Chapter 95
The Consortium’s Heir by Benjamin_Jnr
Chapter 95 The family members present turned to Liam in astonishment. They did not expect that Liam who looked so dejected would suddenly spring up to his feet invigorated.
Liam looked around the room with his eyes widened in shock. He hastily put his phone on loudspeaker so that they could hear the whole conversation before speaking Hello. Am I speaking to Liam Chamberlain?â the caller asked professionally from the other end of the phone âYes, I am Liam Chamberlain!â Liam answered energetically âIâll repeat what I said earlier.â The caller said politely âI am Zack Lyle from West Atlantics Intâl, and I would like to invest in your companyâ
Everyone, including Pearl, looked at Liam with their eyes widened from shock.
Invest in their company?!
They could feel their hopes being rekindled once more when they heard Zackâs words, but they forced themselves to calm down.
While it was great news that a company was willing to invest in them, they didnât think much about it. At most, it would be a small amount of money in exchange for some percentage of shares âHow much are you willing to invest Mr. Zack?â Liam asked hesitantly Since Chamberlains Corporations had been forced to pay back the money they borrowed from the bank. they needed about $20 million to solve their cash flow issue Twenty million dollars was by no means a little sum of money, so Liam wasnât expecting Zack to invest that much amount of money in their company, especially when it was probably in exchange of shares.
Yet, Zackâs next words completely stunned them.
âWe are willing to invest $100 million dollars in your company, Mr. Liam.â
âAr-Are you serious? Liam asked incredulously. He thought his ears were playing a joke on him.
âOf course I am.â Zack answered as he chuckled lightly from the other end of the phone, but he was cursing greatly in his heart.
Why wouldnât he be serious? Would he dare joke at a time like this?
The chairman, Darius, had specifically called him and told him invest as much that was needed into Chamberlains Corporation.
He could only obey his superior and not question him, so he immediately reached out to Liam Chamberlain to inform him.
As for their conflict with Gillette Group, Zack could not care less about a minor thing like that. The Gillette Group was not even worth mentioning in front of West Atlantics Intâl.
Zack was the head of a third rate company before, therefore one could imagine his shock when he found out that the starting capital for investments in West Atlantics Intâl was $50 billion.
It meant that West Atlantics Intâl was a multi-billion dollar corporation!
Wouldnât it be extremely unfair to pitch West Atlantics Intâl against a business group that just had its net worth in millions?
Liam naturally didnât know what Zack was thinking: therefore he was very skeptical about Zackâs intentions.
He was afraid that Zack was only reaching out to them so that he would acquire more than 50% of the shares, hence becoming the majority shareholder of Chamberlains Corporation.
âAlso, West Atlantics Intâl has no need for any percentage of the shares of your company. Mr. Liam.â Zack said, clearing out the doubts in his mind.
âYou donât need the shares? Liam asked disbelievingly. This was simply too shocking!
Not only was he investing an astronomical amount of money in their company, he was also unwilling to accept their shares.
What kind of domineering display was this?
Even the top companies in Almiron city would not be able to bring out $100 million casually without it affecting them severely!
âThank you so much Mr. Zack!â Liam exclaimed happily. He was close to bursting out in tears.
Just some minutes ago, they could see the downfall of Chamberlains Corporation, but now, someone had contacted them out of the blue and suddenly offered to invest in them, despite the fact that they were being pressured by the Gillette Group.
It was nothing short of a miracle.
âDonât mention it.â Zack replied nonchalantly.
âIâll be heading over tomorrow with the contract for the investment.â Zack announced.
The two of them continued talking for some time, and by the time they ended the call, Liam was all smiles It wasnât only Liam that was elated. Every other member of the Chamberlain family was incredibly happy. including Evans.
They didnât know how it happened, but they had miraculously thwarted what looked like a great crisis.
The atmosphere in the villa lit up, and in just a few minutes, everybody was celebrating with one another.
Only Pearl found the situation to be a bit odd.
How come someone contacted them out of the blue and willingly invested $100 million in their company?
What was more shocking was that he didnât even seem to be bothered about the Gillette Group at all.
It only meant two things, and it was either the person was ignorant of the Gillette Group strength in Almiron city, or they couldnât be bothered about the Gillette Group, and Pearl was quite certain that it was the latter Pearl couldnât wrap her head around it, but since everyone was in a celebratory mood now, she decided to pursue the truth on her own later.
She had a notion that this matter wasnât as simple as it appeared, and that there was more to it than met the eye,
