Chapter 1117

"Why didn't Mr. Henderson answer my calls in the early morning?"

Joyce questioned.

"Why should I answer them?" Justin asked coldly in return.

"Why is Mr. Henderson answering now?" Joyce's tone wasn't too

friendly either.

"Ms. Knowles, if you don't have anything important to do, I can hang up

anytime." Justin grunted.

"Wait." Joyce believed that today's Justin was cold-hearted enough to

do that.

It was clear enough from his determination not to answer her calls in

the early hours of the morning.

He had changed. He only cared about the people he cared about, and

only cared about the things he cared about. He was so caught up in his

revenge that he couldn't help himself.

That mild gentleman was gone.

"I heard you're raising $3 billion for Otis? Do you know what he needs

that money for?" Joyce asked.

"Not sure. I never ask the partners, exactly what they need the money

for." Justin said back faintly.

"What if he can't pay it back?" Joyce pursued.

"I don't care about a mere 3 billion either.” Justin's tone was

emotionless, as if the money was just numbers to him.

Joyce felt speechless. That was indeed the way those bankers talked.

She changed the way, "Mr. Henderson, I know you do not care about

money, 300 million for charity, and 3 billion investment in Otis, they are

not the same thing at all. Have you thought about it that you might

hurting someone with the money."

Justin seemed to be silent for a moment.

"It's amazing how much Ms. Knowles has cared about other people.”

Finally, he was sort of sarcastic.

"Can it still be stopped?" Joyce asked in a feeble voice.

“The funds were fully transferred to Mr. Robertson this morning. Ms.

Knowles, you'd better worry more about your own business and mind

our business less. Since you have no further business, I'll hang up.”

Justin gave her a final piece of advice.

"Justin..."

Joyce suddenly called out the voice.

Otis would surely need financial support again, and Justin would be an

inexhaustible vault of cash. She couldn't watch him make the same

mistake again.

"What did you just ... call me?" At the other end of the phone, Justin

froze for a long time and asked in a daze. It had been too long since he

had heard such a call, and in a trance, he thought he had gone back in

time.

Joyce took a deep breath and just wanted to confess that she was still

alive.

Suddenly, the apartment door opened and Anderson rushed into the

hallway, shouting, "Mommy, come back and watch the TV! There's big

news!"

Joyce froze and subconsciously said, "Mr. Henderson, I will call you

later.”

With that, she cut off the phone.

They then ran towards the living room. She was already dragged inside

by Luther before she could step into the living room.

"Look, the radio and TV stations have all been controlled by the military.

Just now it was still some cartoon, and suddenly all the channels have

been all switched to the military news room."

When Joyce heard this, she only felt alarmed and had a bad feeling.

She looked at the TV, and sure enough, it was live broadcast.

Otis was seen wearing his official military uniform. Embraced by

several senior officers, he sat down in front of the live camera.

Immediately afterwards, he began to deliver an important speech to the

nation, and indeed the world.

"Due to a special and unexpected situation within the military, I shall

take over the military immediately.”
