Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart
Chapter 402 Julian Doesn't Compromise

For lunch, Emelia ate many local delicacies with Julian. However, Julian noticed that they were followed wherever they went.

Although Julian didn't know who these trackers took orders from, he was sure that he and Emelia had been followed for a long time. In order not to worry Emelia, Julian didn't say anything about this to her.

They returned to the hotel after lunch. Julian received a call as soon as they got into the room.

Julian answered it with a sneer, thinking it was probably from Larry.

As expected, Larry said in an unkind voice on the other end of the phone, "Good afternoon, Mr. Hughes."

Julian said indifferently, "Good afternoon, Mr. Larry McBride."

Larry was quite surprised. "You know who I am?"

Julian sneered and ignored this question.

As the president of the Hughes Group, Julian was far more capable than Larry thought.

Julian's sneer somewhat annoyed Larry. Larry said angrily, "Then what do you think of my terms?"

"No way," Julian said without hesitation.

Larry was shocked. "What?"

Julian continued indifferently, "You are kidnapping your daughter rather than mine, so I don't have to satisfy your needs. Even if you kill her, it has nothing to do with me."

Words failed Larry. He wondered why it didn't go as planned.

Thinking of this, Larry said through gritted teeth, "Do you know I have all the seals?"

"If you don't agree to my demand, I will destroy them all, and then you'll never get that piece of land. The chip industrial park will go up in smoke."

Hearing this, Julian said nonchalantly, "I don't have to build an industrial park here. I have many other choices."

Compared with Julian, who remained calm, Larry almost freaked out. He roared angrily, "I'm not an idiot. Now that you chose to build an industrial park here, it must be your best choice. Besides, you have paid a lot of money to other factories. It will be a great loss if you change the site!"

Julian gave a contemptuous snort. "This kind of loss means nothing to me."

Julian continued, "Do you think we never have a plan B for such a big project?"

"You..." Larry was lost for words.

Larry didn't expect it to be so difficult to threaten Julian. Larry had thought that Julian would agree to his demand for the sake of the industry park.

Larry had a hard life all these years. He was excited when he read the news that Julian was going to build a new chip industrial park based on Derek's factory and that the Hughes Group would give a large sum of money to Derek.

If Larry could get that money, he would be able to escape abroad instead of hiding at home.

But Larry was clear that Derek would not share the money with him.

Therefore, Larry asked Suzanne to steal the seals for him. To his surprise, Suzanne agreed without hesitation.

On one condition, Larry must help her marry Julian.

Larry agreed happily. He would run out of money one day. If Suzanne married Julian, Larry would get as much money as he wanted from Julian.

It was known to the public that Julian had given Oliver a great deal of money. Therefore, Larry thought Suzanne and Julian's marriage would secure his future.

Hence, Larry and Suzanne joined forces.

Everything else paled when compared with interests.

Nevertheless, Larry didn't expect that he would be refused. Larry was furious. "Just wait and see!"

Julian sneered. "Larry, I have a few words for you."

"First of all, I think you need to learn about the importance of chips. We put so much effort into the development of chips, so you'd better know who stands behind us. You haven't even known who you are fighting against.'

"

"Secondly, you are now suspected of extortion. You committed a crime before. If Miss McBride is charged with extortion, the rest of her life would be ruined."

After Julian finished speaking, Larry hung up the phone in a fury.

Larry had intended to threaten Julian, but on the contrary, Julian was warning Larry.

That was too annoying!

After Julian finished the phone and turned around, Emelia handed him a cup of coffee she made with the coffeemaker.

"Thanks." Julian stopped being cold.

Emelia asked in a low voice, "Are you going to leave it unanswered?"

Julian took a sip of coffee. "We don't know what he will do next, so we'd better provoke him to make the first move."

Emelia heard what Julian said to Larry on the phone. Julian's confident look made Emelia feel safe.

However, if possible, Emelia wanted to do something for Julian.

Emelia asked, "What if Larry destroyed those seals?"

Julian chuckled. "It's just money. It doesn't matter if I give up and choose a new site."

After Julian finished speaking, he added, "Any problem that can be dealt with by money doesn't count at all."

Words failed Emelia.

Glancing at him, Emelia said, "What a humblebrag."

Julian laughed in a low voice, "You have no idea about how rich I am."

Although the Hughes Group had spent a lot on the industrial park, it was just an investment and was far from enough to shake the company's foundations. Also, Emelia knew little about Julian's vindictiveness.

If Larry dared to stand in the way, Julian would give him what he deserved.

Julian attached greater importance to teaching Larry a lesson than getting his money back.

On the other end of the phone, Larry dropped a cup in anger after hanging up.

Suzanne, who was playing games on the sofa, said dissatisfiedly, "What's wrong? Julian refused again?"

Larry walked back and forth in the room with his hands on his hips, grumbling.

Suzanne couldn't help complaining, "You useless buffoon! You can't do anything right!"

Larry roared, "This has nothing to do with me. I didn't expect he would be so determined."

In Larry's mind, even if Julian refused to marry Suzanne, he would at least give 10 million to Larry. Who knew that Julian had no intention of doing that at all!
