Chapter 297

“Good, I’ve received the five billion. Hehe, you’re not bad, Zac. You managed to sell someone else’sthing and get the money for yourself. Haha, you really are the successor to your father’s financialbrains.”

Although Zachary Fest hadn’t been able to retrieve the money, he had used some underhandedmethods to fill that hole. In Gordon Quay’s mind, that meant that he was a carefree being.

“I’m not giving you credit, Zac. You were just lucky this time.”

Zachary gave a small bow in appreciation of what Gordon said.

“I will give credit when it is due. I’m not a mean person.”

The Minister of Economy gritted his teeth as he watched this scene. He couldn’t stand the fact thatZachary Fest had come up with five billion so quickly and gotten the Governor’s acknowledgment. Hewas part of the Monty family; his family was on par with the Fest family.

The two families have been in a silent war for a long time, but neither had come out victorious. IfZachary Fest got ahead of him because of this…

Liam sighed, then turned to Gordon, “Governor, there’s outcome from our five billion, too.”

“Hmm? Did you replace it? Who took it? Who dared to take my money!?” Gordon’s expression immediatelychanged when he heard that they had found the person who stole his money.

How dare someone take my money? I am the ruler of Central Federation! The people must haveforgotten how vicious I can be.

Liam’s body shivered under the tension he could feel rolling off Gordon’s body. He said a silent apologyto Albert Mondez.

Sorry Albert, I had to throw you under the truck…

“Who was it?!”

“It was Albert of the Mondez family.”

“The Mondez family!” Gordon gnashed his teeth. He had treated the Mondez family kindly as he sawpotential in them. If it wasn’t for his favor toward them, they would still be a second-rate family. Theymust be prepared to face his fiery wrath since they dared to touch his money.

“There was a landslide at Mt. Simeon, and all the pipelines at the oil plantation was destroyed. Theyhad received a lot of prepayments for the oil, so…”

“So they took my money to fix their mistake? Hehe, Albert Mondez, you ungrateful being!” Gordonscoffed.

Zachary and Liam had not heard that tone from Gordon in a long time. They were familiar with histemper and knew that this meant that the Mondez family was doomed.

“Liam, from now on, Draco Chamber of Commerce is exempted from paying tax in Paramount. I amalso appointing Jacob Lynch as Paramount’s honorary economic advisor. Zac, go and tell him.”

“Yes, sir!” Zachary responded without hesitation and quickly left to convey the news.

Although Jacob had lost five billion to Gordon, he felt as though it was completely worth it. Money tohim was just a number anyway. He was getting floods of money from Draco Chamber of Commerce.As long as the Scarlet Dragons stayed relevant, they would be able to get that money back. On theother hand, this book was irreplaceable.

He had traveled the Four Outer Districts and gone through many techniques, but nothing couldcompare to the Secret Record of the War Deity. Jacob was over the moon from replaceing the second halfof the secret records by chance.

“Let’s go.”

He beckoned his man, and they left Bank of Paramount. Once they left the building, they saw afamiliar- looking man.

“Zachary Fest?” Jacob stood stunned, and then the air around him started to turn cold.
