Chapter 84 Dominance âThereâs something I need to clarify with you.â
After taking his seat in front of Graham, Jonathan took out a cigarette which Graham hurriedly lit for him. âMr. Goldstein, go ahead.â
âWith regards to the fact that I have acquired the company, thereâs no need to make it public. You should just keep it to yourself. Also, I am buying up all the companyâs shares. However, thereâs no need for you to leave Graham Group. After all, I still need you to run the company going forward,â Jonathan explained. âAs for your salary, I will pay you in terms of shares and dividends. Do you have a problem with that?â
âNo.â
Graham nodded in earnest, as there was no way he would dare object.
âGood!â Jonathan nodded. âFrom now on, you will still be Graham Groupâs chairman. As for me, just assign me a random role.â
A random role?
Graham was baffled. âMay I know which role you are interested in?â
âAnything will do,â Jonathan casually replied, âas long as Iâm an employee of Graham Group. But, I have to let you know upfront that I have no time to come to work. In other words, the whole point I acquired your company is to have it act as a front for me. In terms of its operations, I will not be involved in any way.â
Jonathanâs true objective was just to show Josephine that he had a proper job and stop her from being suspicious all the time.
As for the position or salary, he had no interest in it at all.
âMr. Goldstein, did you really buy over Graham Group just to use it as an excuse?â Despite how rich Graham was, he still couldnât help but gulp at the fact.
After all, it still involved billions and wasnât childâs play at all.
Did he just spend billions to acquire a real estate firm so that he can appear to have a job?
âYes!â
Jonathan nodded. âI had initially wanted to get someone to set up a real estate firm for me. However, after giving it some thought, I found it too troublesome. Hence, I decided to acquire one which was a lot simpler.â
Jonathan had spent a few billion to solve a problem simply because he was lazy to find someone else.
âMr. Goldstein, actually, you didnât have to do it this way.â Graham explained meekly, âI can help you resolve your problem. Thereâs no need for you to spend so much money to buy over our company-â
âEnough!â Jonathan interrupted him. âJust keep my identity a secret.â
âYes, Mr. Goldstein!â
Graham nodded at once.
âBy the way, how much do I need to acquire your company?â Only then did Jonathan remember to ask about Graham Groupâs market value.
After all, he had no idea how much Graham Group was worth.
In fact, if Andrewâs man didnât even tell him that they were buying up Graham Group, he wouldnât even have heard of the name before.
He doesnât even know the price?
At that moment, Grahamâs secretary couldnât help but stare at Jonathan.
Who in the world is this guy?
From the moment Jonathan stepped in, she was trying to guess his identity, especially after she heard that he had acquired Graham Group just to use it as his excuse. Just the thought alone had caused her body to tremble.
He is unbelievably domineering! He actually spent a few billion just to buy up Graham Group as a front?
She had seen many rich young men. However, compared to Jonathan, all those men were reduced to insignificance.
All they could do was spend a few million on sports cars.
But for Jonathan, he could easily splurge billions. In fact, he even bought Graham Group without knowing its price, and that was what made him a cut above the rest.
âThree, three billionâ¦â Graham gulped, feeling apprehensive about revealing the price. After all, three billion was a massive number, and he was facing none other than Jonathan.
Three billion aside, Jonathan could always choose to seize his company without paying anything.
âThree billion, right?â
Jonathan replied plainly, âFine, get someone to draw up the contract in the afternoon. Iâll return to sign it and pay you the next time Iâm back.â
âYes, Mr. Goldstein!â
Graham nodded at once.
Once negotiations were done, Jonathan stubbed out his cigarette. From the moment he walked out of the chairmanâs office, Graham personally escorted him down the elevator and out the main door.
It wasnât until Jonathan was out of sight that Graham could breathe a sigh of relief.
At that moment, it dawned upon him that his back was drenched in sweat.
The pressure he felt from Jonathan was simply too great.
âMr. Cabot, who is Mr. Goldstein really?â By the time Jonathan left, the secretary couldnât help but ask, âWhy does a few billion seem like a small change to him?â
After being in Grahamâs service for so many years, she had seen him negotiate many large deals.
However, never once did she watch a transaction worth billions concluded in just a few seconds.
In fact, the price didnât even seem to matter.
âDidnât I tell you that itâs not your place to know?â Graham gave the secretary a cold stare. âAll you need to know is that he can take Graham Group away from me without paying anything, and I wouldnât even dare protest.â
âWhat?â
The secretary widened her eyes and looked at Graham in disbelief.
He can seize Graham Group without paying anything?
âCan he be one of the King of Warâs associates?â The secretaryâs imagination began to run wild.
Barring the King of War himself, Mr. Goldstein might have a special relationship with him. Who else in Jazona can commandeer Graham Group without Grahamâs protest?
âThe King of War?â
Graham smirked at her response. âDo you know how much Graham Group is currently worth now?
Five billion! Even if it was the King of War, I wouldnât have given it up for free, let alone if he was the King of Warâs associate.â
Compared to Jonathan, the King of War is nothing. Even the King of War has to kneel and greet Jonathan as Asura.
âCan, can he beâ¦â The secretary gulped and didnât dare speculate any further. Saying his name alone would create immense pressure for her.
âEnough, stop guessing!â Graham cut her off.
âGet someone to draft the share transfer agreement at once. Also, inform the rest of the shareholders to hand over all of their shares by tonight! Tell anyone who refuses to do so to pack up and get out of my sight!â
