Sir Ares, Goodnight

Chapter 236

Grayson narrowed his eyes. "We seem to be on the losing end no matter how I look at it, Sir."

He knew that the property prices of Cloudy Dreams were only in the low millions.

Meanwhile, the investment in Sean Bell's movie production was worth billions.

Jay cast a stern gaze on Grayson. "Are you questioning my decision?" 1

Grayson wiped away the beads of cold sweat on his forehead. "I'll do it right now."

Grayson could not understand it as he walked away. "I never knew that he's so willing to lose out on an investment," he mumbled to himself.

Grayson gave a call to Sean and told him about Mr. Ares's offer. He thought that Sean would immediately agree, but Sean immediately protested when he heard the offer.

"What does he mean? Does he have an objection to me renting Cloudy Dreams to Rose Doyle?"

Grayson finally understood the reason behind Mr.

Ares's 'stupid' decision. 1

'Looks like Mr. Ares has been blinded by beauty!' Grayson lamented.

Even though Grayson might not agree with Mr. Ares's decision of losing material wealth to gain a woman's heart, he knew that his president's orders were absolute.

"If you don't agree with the offer, Mr. Bell, I regret to tell you that Grand Asia will be pulling out all our investments in Bell Enterprise."

"What? Is there a need? Why would he oppose Bell Enterprise just because of a woman?" Sean complained unhappily.

Grayson's forehead was damp with cold sweat. He also thought that Mr. Ares's methods were rather excessive.

However, Grayson understood that his president would use whatever means to achieve what he wanted. He had been affected by his president after all, and his innocent heart had been tainted black.

Grayson applied more pressure. "It's not just pulling our investments. We also have the ability to apply certain reasonable economic sanctions on your company. A word of advice, Mr. Bell, don't try to oppose Mr. Ares. After all, there isn't anything in this world that's out of his reach. It's just a matter of whether he wants to take it."

Sean ended the call feeling immensely frustrated.

Grayson shook his head and sighed as he looked at the receiver in his hand. "You're still young and immature, Mr. Bell. You'll eventually pay the heavy

price for your impetuosity."

When Grayson relayed the news about Sean's rejection to Jay, Jay sunk into deep thought, rubbing the china teacup in his hand.

"Looks like this kid doesn't know me very well," he said eerily.

Grayson could hear from Jay's calm voice that he was out for blood.

"Mr. Ares, we are long time collaborators with Bell Enterprise after all..." Grayson was hoping that Bell Enterprise would be spared from President Ares's wrath toward Sean.

Jay glanced at Grayson and continued speaking icily.' Remember, there are no forever friends in business, and there are no forever enemies either."

In the afternoon, Sean realized that the price of Bell Enterprise shares had fallen to its limit down right after the market opened.

That was unprecedented! Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Sean sank into deep thought as he looked at the sea of red on his screen.

He had only offended Jay Ares that morning. Was he going to suffer the consequences that soon?

Sean noticed that his phone started ringing. His face went pale when he saw that Jay Ares was calling.

"Sean Bell. Trade your property in Cloudy Dreams, and

Bell Enterprise share prices will stop falling. Yes or n o?"

Sean's back was damp with cold sweat. "So, you're the one who is acting on Bell Enterprise? I've heard that you're a prodigy in business, but how did you drop the share prices of my company in such a short amount of time?"

"That's a trade secret," Jay said coolly, "So, yes or no? I'll give you three seconds to decide. If you say no, your father will be kneeling in front of me tomorrow. D o you believe that?"

"Fine, I'm afraid of you. It's just a house worth a few million, right? I'll give it to you if you like it that much."

"Remember to transfer the ownership by this afternoon," Jay reminded him sternly.
