The largest shareholder was, of course, the parent company.

The president said casually, “Don’t take the parent company for granted; they have much more evidence in their hands than you imagine. Yigol Novak’s ability is not as simple as you think. What he has is enough to destroy our Garkin. Are you sure you can bear the consequences?”

Zachary Janell held the most shares in the company, so he was not as simple as he appeared.

In this circle, very few people show their true strength in front of everyone, and Zachary Janell was no exception.

Besides being a shareholder of Garkin, Zachary Janell was also an investor, making various investments without gaining much fame.

Being able to achieve fame meant they were very powerful.

In the end, it comes down to money. As long as Zachary Janell can afford to pay, there will be no problem.

Zachary Janell fell silent for a moment before saying, “If he can make a move, can’t we?”

The president scoffed and said, “True, the news from the parent company is just as you said, Yigol Novak is just an ordinary leaseholder with 1 billion dollars in the stock market, and that’s it.”

“But it’s this lack of ability that’s most terrifying. If he only had this much power, he wouldn’t be able to shake us, let alone hit us so hard. We don’t know if he has any forces behind him, and he doesn’t start companies or make investments.”

“But there’s one thing that’s baffling: he has over ten billion dollars in the stock market nationwide. You don’t need me to tell you what that means. As long as he’s willing, one hit upward, and we’re done. Do you think the parent company will risk its life to play with us?”

“A wise person maximizes their interests and minimizes their losses, otherwise it’s a bottomless pit. Do you want to pay not only for yourself and your family but also for the future of all of us?”

“Over ten billion? How did he get so much money?” Zachary Janell was shocked.

With so much money in the stock market, how terrifying must this person be?

A big shot wouldn’t put all their fortune in the stock market. Having over one hundred billion dollars in stock market assets meant the person had at least a trillion dollars in total assets. This figure was terrifying.

No wonder the parent company asked him to apologize directly without giving any chance for evasion.

“From what we found, he has been playing stocks abroad and has reached the international level. We couldn’t find out more about him. As you can imagine, how strong his power must be. Do you still think he’s an ordinary person now?”

“The parent company wants you to apologize to minimize the losses. Otherwise, if the situation worsens, abandoning a vehicle to protect its master is a principle you don’t need to elaborate on.”

“In the end, it’s your daughter’s fault. If her agent hadn’t gone looking for trouble afterwards, the matter would have ended there. You brought all this fire upon yourselves.”

Zachary Janell carefully pondered the seriousness of the matter and tried to convince himself.

Such a powerful big shot was indeed not someone he could afford to offend. No wonder the other party was so confident when he called them for the first time.

After a long time, he finally made a decision.

“Okay, I’ll call him now.” Zachary Janell was extremely reluctant but had no choice but to bow to reality. He made the call, and at everyone’s request, switched on the speakerphone.

“Mr. Janell, I thought you might have forgotten about me by now.” Yigol Novak said indifferently from the other end of the phone.

“Mr. Novak, it’s my fault for the wrongdoing. I accept your terms. Can you let Garkin go, please?” Zachary Janell asked with restraint.

“Accepting my terms? Mr. Janell, I’ve been quite busy dealing with all these trivial matters…”

Yigol Novak’s meaning was clear; his terms were no longer the previous terms.

“500 million dollars, Mr. Novak, how about 500 million dollars?” Zachary Janell hurriedly said.

He never thought that he would have to pay so much for a moment of anger.

Yigol Novak chuckled on the other end of the phone: “500 million dollars? Do you think it only takes 500 million to solve this problem, Mr. Janell? Have you forgotten what I said before?”

Previously, Yigol Novak had said that the next time, it would be doubled. Now it seems that he was not satisfied with doubling the amount anymore.

Zachary Janell was so furious that he almost vomited blood on the spot. But since he hadn’t died of anger, the problem still needed to be solved. He continued, “10 billion dollars, Mr. Novak. Please be generous.” “Let’s make it 3.6 billion dollars. I wish Mr. Janell’s business prosperity.”

“I also wish Mr. Novak good fortune and great profits.” With a guilty conscience, Zachary Janell was about to hang up when Yigol Novak spoke faintly again.

“Mr. Janell, I’m curious, how’s your relationship with your parent company? Zachary Janell’s heart leaped into his throat before saying, “I’m in a meeting.”

“Oh, since we’re talking about this, let me mention that I have something in my hands that you might not want to see. Shall I help you destroy it?” “Well, it deserves some labor.” Yigol Novak said indifferently.

“What are Mr. Novak’s terms?” Zachary Janell asked, looking at the president.

Yigol Novak had already gone this far, nobody knew what his next move would be and how devastating the potential result.

One thing was certain: the destructive power was sure to be strong.

“Didn’t Mr. Janell just wish me good fortune and great profits? Then let’s settle on 3.6 billion dollars. I find this number quite auspicious.”

“What?”

“Janell, accept it, but remind him that he must handle it properly and leave no hidden dangers,” the president said.

Over 3.6 billion dollars was indeed not a small number, but when compared to Garkin’s prospects, the difference in weight was apparent. With Garkin’s current development, their market value could be multiplied by tens of times within two or three years.

As long as this matter was handled properly, it could also push Garkin a significant step forward.

Although the 3.6 billion dollars hurt, there were no better alternatives at the moment. If they continued to stalemate, the consequences would become even more severe.

If Garkin were ruined, everything would be over.

Strictly speaking, they couldn’t even find fault with Yigol Novak. From the beginning, it wasn’t his initiative.

They also realized that Yigol Novak wasn’t trying to annihilate them completely.

If they continued to push him, the next time, it might be 10 billion dollars and then the downfall of Garkin.

The parent company had always been optimistic about Garkin, so if Garkin was no more, everyone present’s future would be ruined as well.

Having heard the president’s words, Yigol Novak calmly replied, “You don’t need to worry. I am a man of integrity, and since I’ve accepted the money, I will clean up..”
