After hearing Connor’s words, Jared’s expression instantly turned ugly.
Oscar was willing to hit Harry for money, there was no doubt he would hit him too.
As expected, without any hesitation, Oscar rushed towards Jared.
When he saw Oscar running towards him, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes. He stammered and shouted at Oscar, “Oscar, what… what are you doing? I warn you…”
“Smack!”
Before he could finish his words, Oscar slapped him directly in the face, staring at him and cursing, “What are you warning me about? Come on, tell me, what do you want…”
Jared’s eyes were filled with fear as he looked at Oscar, his expression extremely terrified.
At this point Jared knew that Oscar had completely turned his back on him for money, and Oscar didn’t care at all whether Jared or Harry would retaliate against him.
After speaking, Oscar raised his right hand again, wanting to slap Jared’s face.
“Enough!”
But at that moment, Connor suddenly shouted.
Upon hearing his words, Oscar’s eyes flashed with confusion. He turned his head to look at Connor and asked in a puzzled tone, “Mr. Connor, what… what do you mean?”
Connor ignored his question and bent down to take out 20,000 dollars from his suitcase, throwing it at Oscar’s feet. He then said, “I’ve changed my mind. 1 don’t think they are worth this money anymore. So I’m ending this game. You slapped both of them just now. Here’s 20,000 dollars, take it!”
Oscar stared at the 20,000 dollars on the ground and his face filled with anger. It was only now that he realized Connor had been playing with him!
From the beginning, Connor had no intention of giving him the money!
“Mr. Connor, are you… are you joking with me?” Oscar stammered as he asked Connor.
“Joking?”
Connor sneered and said disdainfully, “Who are you? Why would 1 joke with you?”
Although he was wealthy, he wasn’t foolish enough to give all his money to Oscar. His purpose was simple which was to sow discord between Oscar and Harry.
He had just slapped Harry in front of so many people, and Harry would definitely lose face and couldn’t stay in Porthampton anymore.
And Oscar would also pay the price for the slap he just delivered. Harry would never let him off easily!
Oscar had originally thought he could take this opportunity to make a fortune and leave with Oscar’s money, without worrying about Harry seeking revenge. But he never expected that he would be played in the end!
His expression could only be described as uglier than death. He not only failed to obtain the money, but also offended Harry. What Connor did was truly heart-wrenching!
However, due to Connor’s relationship with Kyle, Oscar didn’t dare to say much even if he knew he had been played. He could only look at him with a desperate expression.
Meanwhile, Connor narrowed his eyes and looked calmly at Oscar and Harry in front of him.
At this moment, he finally understood how he should use the money in his hands!
Just like Thomas said, Connor was the richest person in the world. Some things don’t need to be resolved using ordinary methods as rich people should use rich methods to solve them.
And Connor’s method of solving problems was to throw money at them!
“Mr. Connor!”
At that moment, a chubby middle-aged man rushed into the showroom in a hurry.
When everyone saw this middle-aged man, they all had expressions of shock.
“the CEO?”
Chloe covered her mouth and couldn’t help but exclaim.
Harry also couldn’t help but be stunned. The middle-aged man had just greeted Connor as ‘Mr. Connor’ and everyone heard it.
“Could it be that Connor knows the CEO of our company?” Chloe muttered to herself in her mind.
However, at that moment, the middle-aged man ran up to Connor in a panicked state and gasped as he said, “Mr. Connor, nice to meet you. I am Hendrick Canfield, the CEO of Evergrande Real Estate!”
“Is the contract ready?” Connor asked.
“It’s ready. As long as you sign your name on the contract, Evergrande Real Estate will be yours!”
Hendrick didn’t hesitate and directly took out a contract from his briefcase and handed it to Connor.
When the people present heard the conversation between them, their expressions became even more shocked.
Because they never expected that Hendrick would come to deliver the contract to Connor, and it was a transfer contract for Evergrande Real Estate. This meant that Connor might have already bought Evergrande Real Estate.
Chloe was dumbfounded, as were Harry and Jared.
They felt like they were dreaming and wondered on how could Connor have bought such a large real estate company in such a short period of time?
But what they didn’t know was that Connor was Thomas’ boss, and there was nothing Thomas couldn’t accomplish in Porthampton.
Originally, Connor planned to buy all the properties in this sales office and let Chloe be in charge of managing his properties.
However, after Jared’s incident, he realized that if he was going to spend money to buy properties from Evergrande Real Estate, why not just buy the whole company?
So when he was talking to Kyle on the phone just now, he mentioned two things. The first was asking him to bring 20 million dollars in cash, and the second was to inform Thomas to acquire Evergrande Real Estate within half an hour.
Connor quickly glanced at the transfer contract in his hand and then picked up a pen to sign his name on it.
When Hendrick saw him signing it, a joyful smile appeared on his face.
It should be noted that Thomas had offered a price twice the market value to acquire hiss company, which was why he made the decision so quickly and personally came to deliver the contract to Connor.
Now, as long as Connor signed the contract, he would immediately earn billions more. It was like a windfall for him!
“Mr. Connor, Evergrande Real Estate is now yours!”
Hendrick went through the contract in his hand, made sure there were no issues, and happily said to Connor.
When the crowd heard his words, they were dumbfounded once again.
No one expected that in less than five minutes, they had changed owners!
