Chapter 115 His Last Chance

Crystal didn’t wait for Robin to speak and waved two bank cards inf front of Miranda. “These are Robin’s cards, there are five to six billion

inside.”

“Miranda, if you were truly willing to make the deal, we can now proceed to check and complete the formalities for a direct transfer.”

Robin looked at Crystal and said, “Alright, you help me handle this matter. I will just sign my name on the transfer contract when the time comes.”

After speaking, he walked straight to the office.

“Ah, well… Robin…”

Jacob saw Miranda really sold the land in the southern part of the city and chased after Robin, saying, “Robin, I also have a land in the southern part of the city. Let’s see if you can buy it together.”

Robin stopped in his tracks and looked at Jacob with interest. He chuckled lightly and said, “Buy it, why not? Don’t you guys know? The land in the southern part of the city will double in value soon!”

Miranda sneered in her mind, “Only a fool like you would believe that!”

Jacob also secretly sneered, “Robin, you’re just a damn fool! The land in the southern part of the city will double in value soon. You’re just deceiving yourself!”

However, on the surface, he still pretended to be extremely agreeable, “Yes, yes, yes, if I wasn’t in a hurry to retrieve the funds and repay

Barry’s high–interest loan, I would never have sold the southern land in my hands.”

“South of the city, land prices are about to rise. Are you selling to me now without regrets?” Robin casually opened his phone’s voice recorder, scanning Miranda and Jacob.

Miranda snorted. “Robin, do you think I would be like you, who has never seen money? Since I, Miranda, sold the land in the south of the city, no matter how much money I sold it for, I will not regret it!”

Robin smirked and said, “If a few days later, it suddenly surged to fifteen billion, twenty billion, or even higher in value, wouldn’t you regret it?”

Miranda angrily said. “It’s just a small amount of money! Look at you, so inexperienced! If I were to back out, I would be no better than an animal. Are you satisfied now?”

Robin shrugged, “Alright, I believe it. What about you, Jacob?”

Jacob eagerly said, “Of course, since something has been sold, no matter the price, I will never regret it. This is the minimum rule, just like Miranda said, if I go back on my word, I am a beast!”

“Alright! The land in the southern part of the city that you have in your hands, is it for sale?” Robin’s lips curled up slightly as he spoke.

“Four billion?” Jacob’s smile suddenly faded from his face. “Miranda’s plot is the same as mine, so why is mine only worth four billion?”

“You don’t accept this price, huh? Well, forget it then. I won’t buy it!” Robin said, turning around and leaving.

Jacob was very unwilling in his heart.

Robin was a complete jerk!

Cut off one billion directly!

However, the southern plot in hand cannot be sold now.

The longer it is delayed, the less valuable it becomes, and even in the end, no one wants it for a penny.

So, gritting his teeth, he said, “Wait a minute, Robin, four billion is four billion. I’ll sell!”

“Great! Deal!” Robin turned around and glanced at Crystal. “If you add some more money, buy Mr. Walsh’s plot of land. If you’re not

confident, consider it as lending it to me.”

Crystal hesitated for a moment, then said, “Alright, let’s go and handle the transfer procedures.”

Left Eastern District Development Corporation with Jacob and Miranda.

Robin turned off the recording on his phone.

He knew that three days later, the price of the land in the southern part of the city would skyrocket, increasing tenfold or even several dozen

times.

Many hot money capitals would scramble to gather in this area.

At that time, Miranda and Jacob would definitely regret seeing their land plots increase so many times in value.

It would be better to keep some tricks up our sleeves for these scoundrels and villains, so as to avoid wasting too much breath when the time comes.

After Crystal and the others left, Robin came face to face with Freddie, who was walking out of Reginald’s office.

Seeing his dejected look, I knew he must have also hit a wall with Reginald.

Freddie was filled with despair, stumbling and muttering to himself, “I, Freddie, have truly reached the end of days!”

“Ah! There’s no way, it’s fate, it’s fate! The heavens won’t give me a way out, even if I try my best, time will still slip away in vain!”

“Meeting me, it’s not necessarily!” Robin stood in front of Freddie, giving a faint smile.

Freddie looked up at Robin and asked, “Who… who are you?”

Robin chuckled, “I am Robin, are you Mr. Freddie from Glory Edifice?”

“Robin?” Freddie thought for a while but couldn’t remember what this young man in front of him did.

Robin surveyed Freddie’s crimson eyes and asked, “I heard you had the Glory Edifice project in your hands, along with many other

commercial sectors?”

“Yes, what do you mean?” Freddie’s eyes lit up, as if he had grasped a lifeline in the midst of despairing waters.

Then, the glimmer of hope in the eyes dimmed again.

Because the person in front of me was too young.

Even if he was an executive of the Huber Group, he would not have had the authority to operate with 10 billion in funds.

“Come with me to the office, and let’s talk about the Glory Edifice matter,” Robin signaled Freddie to walk towards the innermost office.

Freddie was confused. He didn’t know Robin and, looking at this young new face, he felt doubtful.

Is Karina the newly hired assistant?

However, the person sitting in that office, guided by Robin to its location, should have had a higher position than Reginald.

It seems that this young person was indeed Karina’s assistant.

Freddie followed Robin nervously all the way to the front of the office door, and looked up to see the word “President” written on the office sign.

It was indeed Karina’s office!

The extinguished flame of hope that Freddie had just shattered, ignited once again.

However, as soon as he thought about the price Nathen had given, his heart sank again.

Does Karina want to bargain?

Alas, it has come to this. Let’s see what happens next, anyway, I am already at my wit’s end!

Walking into the office, the environment here was much more impressive than Reginald’s office.

However, after entering the office, Karina was not seen.

Freddie had never had any dealings with Karina.

I only had a few encounters with Karina’s father, Camdyn, about seven or eight years ago.

“Take a seat.” Robin pointed to the sofa, gesturing for the nervous Freddie to sit down and talk.

“How long will it take for Ms. Huber to come back?” Freddie glanced at the time, realizing that he had just over three hours left to repay his

bank loan.

This negotiation should have been his last chance to possibly revive.

“Ms. Huber? Ms. Huber won’t be coming back today,” Robin said indifferently. “Tell me about the situation at Glory Edifice.”

“You? Mr. Bruce, I’m sorry, but I have to ask, can you really handle such a big matter on your own?” Freddie’s hope, which had just ignited upon hearing that Karina wouldn’t be coming back today, quickly faded away.

“Isn’t it just a matter of one or two hundred billion? Do you think as the President of Eastern District Development Corporation, I can’t make decisions?” Robin chuckled lightly, “If you don’t want to discuss it, then forget it.”

“Ah? You… you are the president of Eastern District Development Corporation?” Freddie took a moment to come back to his senses.

The fact that the Huber family was able to entrust their most core industry to this young person in front of them clearly indicated that he was a heavyweight figure in the Huber family.

He quickly stood up and tightly held Robin’s hand, saying, “I apologize, Mr. Bruce, I was rude just now, I didn’t know…”

Robin gestured for him to sit down. “No worries, I’ve heard a bit about your situation. Tell me, how do you plan to handle Glory Edifice and the surrounding industries?”

Freddie couldn’t be bothered anymore at that moment and revealed the

whole truth about the situation.

“Mr. Bruce, to be honest with you, I invested nearly 20 billion in the industrial development of the southern area.”

“Due to numerous investors withdrawing their funding midway, I am now on the brink of bankruptcy.”

“Today was the deadline for me to repay the bank loan, and, moreover, I owed Demon’s Lair nearly 2 billion, Barry held my wife and children hostage there.”

“If I couldn’t repay them today, not only would the bank seize all of my assets, but Barry and his gang would also kill our entire family!”

“In total, I needed 10 billion now to get through this difficult situation! Mr. Bruce, I beg you…”

Freddie stood up, wanting to kneel down to Robin, but was stopped by a hand. “No worries, I will tell Ms. Huber that the Huber Group has accepted!”

At that moment, Freddie’s phone rang. It was a call from Barry.

He tremblingly opened the answer button, before he could speak, Barry’s voice came through, “Freddie, I can’t pay you back today, you know, what will happen to your wife and daughter!”

The cries of Freddie’s wife and daughter came through the phone.

Robin frowned and pointed at Freddie, “Give me your phone!”
