Chapter: 791
"It’s all thanks to you that our company is doing well. It’s only fair to get you a gift." Hank suddenly changed. the topic of the conversation.
"But I ran into some trouble recently, and I’ll need your help."
"Oh? What trouble? I’m all ears." Nelson downed the drink in his cup.
"Well, the headquarters sent a new chairman to keep us in check. The new chairman is pretty slick. To defeat her, I issued her a challenge to get you to pay the 70 million in debt. If she fails, she’ll have to vacate the position." Hank offered a loaded description of the problem.
"I got it." Nelson caught up fast.
"You want me to teach her a lesson. Is that it?"
"Indeed!" Hank nodded with a grin.
"Do whatever you like to her, as long as you keep her alive!"
"What’s the background of that new chairman?" Nelson demanded more information before he agreed to it. Although the Flame Dragon Gang was notorious in the region, they could not afford to offend certain entities- for example, the branch families of the Fabulous Five or the disciples of the Tremendous Three.
"Lord Horst, I have looked into her. She’s nothing." Hank was confident.
Dahlia might have the backing of Regulus Nicholson, but the patriarch in Glenstead was too far away from Balerno to pose any threat.
"Oh, it shouldn’t be a problem if she’s nothing special." Nelson chuckled.
"She’d better not show up! If she ever does, I’ll make it tough on her!" It was simply ridiculous for a person who wasn’t rich or powerful to demand money from him.
"Lord Horst, I’ll have to trouble you for this. When it’s done, I’ll send you a gift." Hank bowed to Nelson.
"Haha! Not a problem. We’re brothers. Take it easy." A wide smile appeared on Nelson’s face. Based on his past experiences, the mention of a "gift" would imply at least a million dollars in monetary reward.
"Lord Horst …" One of Nelson’s men knocked on the door during the conversation. Nelson raised his brows unhappily.
"What? Can’t you see that I’m in a business meeting with my client?"
"A few visitors demanded to see you. They would like you to pay your debts," the man reported the situation.
"Oh, they sure act fast! Speak of the devil!" Nelson rubbed his chin.
Hank cracked a smile.
"Lord Horst, I shall be the audience for your show."
"Open your eyes wide and see how I teach her a lesson!" With a slap on the table, Nelson rose and marched out of the room. At the same time, Hank went to the window and watched the situation unfold from the gap between the curtains.
