Will Mario’s face was pale. “Uncle, why would you say that?”
Will Arnold roared, “The Rockefeller family has abandoned me. They want me to step down early.”
“What? How could this happen?” Will Mario suddenly stood up.
His pupils trembled fiercely, reflecting the shock in his heart.
Though he didn't know what the Rockefeller family was, he had heard his uncle mention it more than once. His uncle owed his current position to the Rockefeller family’s support. But… the Rockefeller family had promised his uncle a reappointment. Why was he being forced to resign before his term was up?
Will Arnold gritted his teeth. “Butler Victor said that if I blame anyone, it should be my own clansmen for abusing their power.”
“So, did you do something heinous outside?” he asked. “Tell me, how did you get back those thirty-five percent shares of your company?”
“I spent twenty million to get them back!” Will Mario pleaded, “Uncle, you must believe me. I would never abuse my power.”
“Jack, get in here!” Will Arnold shouted towards the door. He didn't believe his nephew. After all, he had just acquired those shares when the Rockefeller family abandoned him. He had a premonition that this matter was likely related to those thirty-five percent shares.
Soon, a man over two meters tall walked in. Will Arnold asked in a deep voice, “Answer me honestly, how were those thirty-five percent shares obtained?”
Will Mario kept signaling Jack with his eyes, afraid that Jack would reveal the truth. If that happened, his uncle would surely not let him off lightly. Although Jack saw his eyes and understood his intentions, he did not cooperate with Will Mario. He dared not lie to Will Arnold and told him what had happened at Zhang Wei’s house.
Upon learning that his nephew had entered Zhang Wei’s house with a gun, threatened Zhang Wei’s wife to force Zhang Wei to hand over thirty-five percent of the company shares, and even transferred a debt of two million to him, Will Arnold flew into a rage. “Bastard! You’ve ruined me!” he roared, picking up an ashtray and smashing it hard against Will Mario.
Will Mario cried out in pain, “Uncle, I was wrong, I was wrong! Please spare my life. I never thought it would come to this!” Will Mario’s spirit was broken. He never expected that Zhang Wei knew people from the Rockefeller family, and that they would abandon his uncle, whom they had cultivated. Of course, rather than Zhang Wei knowing someone from the Rockefeller family, he believed more in the Oriental man he saw at Zhang Wei’s house. Especially those words, ‘Do you really think we Orientals can be bullied at will?’ He had previously thought Chen Nan was just talking big. Now it seemed things were not as he had imagined.
Thinking this, he fell into despair. To make the Rockefeller family abandon his uncle with just one phone call – how could he afford to offend such an important figure? If he had known this would happen, he shouldn’t have been so arrogant at Zhang Wei’s house!
“Prepare the contract. Now, immediately, transfer all the shares of your company to your partner,” Will Arnold roared. “Otherwise, all of us will be annihilated by the Rockefeller family.”
Will Mario shivered and immediately ordered the contract to be prepared. Afterwards, Will Arnold and Will Mario arrived at Zhang Wei’s house.
“Mr. Arnold, why are you coming to our house?”
“We have nothing left. Are you going to drive us to our deaths?” Zhang Wei asked, looking at them while clearly drunk. He had lived in Ohio for three years and naturally recognized this important figure. As for Will Mario, his face was already battered beyond recognition.
Will Arnold glanced nervously at Chen Nan, who was drinking in the dining room, and said without even greeting him, “Mr. Zhang, I am truly sorry for what happened.”
“It’s my poor discipline that led my nephew to do such a despicable thing.” Seeing the other man’s nervous expression, Zhang Wei’s drunkenness suddenly lessened. He looked towards Will Arnold’s side at the unrecognizable figure who had been beaten. He recognized him as his business partner, Will Mario, and his heart trembled. Who could tell him what had happened? Why was Will Arnold bringing his nephew to apologize?
“Zhang Wei, I was blinded by greed and have realized my mistake,” Will Mario said, his eyes full of fear. “Here are all the company shares. I am now transferring them to you free of charge. I hope you will show mercy and spare our Will family a way out!”
Hiss! Zhang Wei gasped. All his drunkenness vanished. The Will family was a top family in Ohio. Why was this man so humble?
At this moment, Will Arnold took out a check worth five million and said apologetically, “Mr. Zhang, this is a small compensation from our Will family. Please accept it!” He then bowed deeply, as if he wouldn't stand up if the money wasn't accepted.
Zhang Wei was bewildered. But he had a premonition that this matter was related to the phone call Chen Nan had made. So he turned to look at Chen Nan.
Chen Nan said, “Take it if he offers it.”
“Okay.” Zhang Wei accepted the check and the share transfer agreement.
“Mr. Will Mario, as I said before, no one can bully us Orientals. Do you believe me now?” Chen Nan took a sip of his wine.
Will Mario did not hide his fear and quickly said, “It was my ignorance that offended you. I already know my mistake!”
Chen Nan said, “Get out!”
“Yes, yes, yes, we’re leaving now!” Will Arnold immediately took his nephew and fled Zhang Wei’s house in a panic. Although they had compensated the other party five million this time, as long as the other party accepted their apology, any price would be worth paying. At least they wouldn’t have to worry about being annihilated by the Rockefeller family!
Zhang Wei looked at Chen Nan in disbelief, feeling like he was dreaming and it wasn't real. “Who did you call earlier? Even the President of the United States couldn’t have ordered Will Arnold to come and apologize, could he?”
Wen Huaiyu was also so shocked that she couldn’t speak. She never expected the top figure in Ohio to bring his nephew and five million in compensation, along with all the company shares, to apologize.
Chen Nan smiled. “It’s nothing, just a friend. Come, let’s not talk about this. Let’s have a good drink tonight.”
Zhang Wei grinned. “Alright, tonight, I’ll gladly accompany you, my friend.”
Xu Qingxin said with slight displeasure, “Enough is enough, why drink so much?” Chen Nan was already very strong. If he drank more, could she still handle it?
