Chapter 264: Connor is Here
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When everyone heard that Titus had given Freya a discount of 20 million, their eyes widened in shock.
In the entire Porthampton, there were only a few people who could make Titus ask for 20 million dollars less with just one sentence.
Meanwhile, Qahira, Sandra, and Shane felt a burning pain on their faces. It was as if they had been slapped.
It turned out that Titus had been so polite to them not because of Shane, but because of Freya!
‘I didn’t expect Freya to grow so quickly in the past few years. Even people like Titus have to give her face!’
Sandra looked at Freya and couldn’t help but sigh. Then, she recalled how arrogant she was in the private room just now and felt even more ashamed. At that time, Freya might have even laughed at her!
Although Qahira was unwilling to admit it, she had already acknowledged that she was inferior to Freya.
Even if Freya’s fiance was a good-for-nothing loser, Freya had her own capabilities. She did not care if her fiance was rich or not!
The most sorrowful thing for a woman was that her fate was in the hands of a man.
Qahira was obviously still at this stage, but Freya had long passed this stage. She was already starting to control her own life.
Although everyone was looking at Freya with envy, but Freya herself was suffering.
Titus was already giving Freya face by asking for 20 million less because of Thomas Morgan. Even so, the remaining 20 million was still a huge sum for the Phillips Family.
Sean’s company had just started on the right track, so he naturally couldn’t take out so much cash.
Although Freya’s company was rich, the money was invested by Thomas. If Freya used it for personal use, it would not be appropriate.
“Mr. Jenkins, I’m really grateful that you’re doing me a favor, but the remaining 20 million is also a huge sum of money for me. Can you give me some time to prepare the money?”
Freya stepped forward and said to Titus softly.
After hearing Freya’s words, Titus couldn’t help but hesitate for a moment before saying expressionlessly, “Miss Freya, actually, this vase doesn’t belong to me, but to the company. I’ve already asked for 20 million less on account of Mr. Morgan, so I hope you can understand the situation I’m in. No matter what, you have to hand over the 20 million today. Otherwise, I won’t be able to explain it to the company!”
When Freya heard Titus’s words, she was stunned, and a trace of despair flashed across her pretty face.
Although Titus looked very calm on the surface, he was actually very uneasy. After all, he was not making things difficult for others, but for his boss’s fiancee.
When Titus was talking to Thomas on the phone just now, Thomas gave Titus a perfect idea.
Firstly, in order to not embarrass Freya, Titus took the initiative to compromise and changed the compensation from 40 million to 20 million.
This way, he would be able to give Freya face and the others would not suspect anything.
Secondly, Titus had to get his hands on the 20 million dollars today. He had to be very tough so that Freya would not suspect that Titus did not want the money for some reason.
Thomas felt that the Phillips Family was considered a prominent family in Porthampton, so it should not be difficult for them to fork out 20 million dollars. Moreover, even if Freya lost 20 million today, Thomas would find a chance to return it in the future.
This way, he could protect Connor’s identity and prevent Titus from offending Freya.
He had to admit that Thomas was very good at dealing with these problems. After all, he had been in the business world for so many years and had seen all kinds of things.
However, Thomas probably did not think that the Phillips Family could not even fork out 20 million dollars.
Freya looked at Sean anxiously, wanting to see if he could come up with any ideas.
After all, Titus had already given him enough face, but if they couldn’t even take out 20 million, then it would really be a little shameless!
Sean hesitated for a couple of seconds, then looked at Titus and said, “Mr. Jenkins, I can only take out 10 million now. 1’11 gather the remaining 10 million for you in two days. Would that be alright?”
“No!”
Titus shook his head and refused. Then, he said indifferently, “Mr. Phillips, your father is also a famous wealthy businessman. I think it shouldn’t be a problem for him to take out 10 million to help you, right? Moreover, your family is big and each of you is a billionaire. You can also ask these people for help!”
After hearing Titus’s words, Sean couldn’t help but grit his teeth. He lowered his head and didn’t speak.
Titus was right. The Phillips Family was indeed very rich. Any one of them was a billionaire. However, the family was full of schemes. Sean really couldn’t lower his head and admit his mistakes to these people.
As for asking Sean to borrow money from his father, that was out of the question.
Sean would rather die than do this!
This was because among the four sons, Sean was the least favored.
Sean’s achievements today were all due to his own hard work. Therefore, he would never beg the person he hated the most for such a small matter. “Sandra, can you help me gather some money?”
Sean hesitated for a moment before turning to ask Sandra.
“Sean, it’s not like you don’t know my situation.”
Sandra shook her head without thinking, as if she was afraid that Sean would borrow money from her.
Sean looked at Sandra, not knowing what to say.
“Sean, I think it’s your son-in-law Connor’s fault for today’s incident. He was clearly the one who helped you up. He’s also responsible for you falling. You should ask him for the money,” Sandra said sarcastically.
“Mom, are you kidding me? When Connor found out that something happened to Uncle, he ran away faster than anyone else. Moreover, he is still hiding in the hotel and isn’t here. Moreover, how could a poor loser like him take out 10 million dollars!”
Qahira also chimed in.
Even at this moment, the two of them still did not forget to humiliate Connor. “Sigh!”
Sean sighed helplessly. He knew that he couldn’t count on his good-for-nothing son-in-law anymore, so he slowly took out his phone and was about to borrow money.
Now that things had come to this, Sean felt that his reputation was no longer that important.
“20 million for an imitation vase? Mr. Jenkins, aren’t you asking for too much?”
However, just as Sean was about to call his father, a voice suddenly came from afar.
When everyone heard this voice, they all turned their heads to look behind them.
An ordinary-looking young man slowly walked over from the distance.
“Who is this kid?”
“Things have already reached this point, so why would he still meddle in it? Does he have nothing better to do?”
“Yeah, he actually dared to say that Mr. Jenkin’s vase is fake. Young people these days are really getting more and more stupid!”
When the customers gathered at the entrance of the restaurant saw the young man appear, they began to discuss in low voices.
Freya, Sean, and the others looked at the young man.
However, when they saw the appearance of the young man, they were all stunned..
