Ibrahim watched the scene unfold with a calm and composed demeanor.

Shane distanced himself from Ethan with fear evident in his eyes. “Mr. Jackson, the interest rate is too high. There’s no way I’m signing this contract. Even if you hit me, I won’t sign it. If it comes down to it, we’ll both go down together”

“You son of a…”

Ethan’s temper flared again, but just as he was about to strike, ibrahim stepped in to hold him back. “Hey, Mr. Jackson, don’t get worked up. Come on, we’re all educated people here. Let’s talk it out.”

Shane, who had previously looked down on Ibrahim, now felt a hint of gratitude towards him and quickly seized the opportunity. “That’s right, let’s talk, don’t light.”

Ethan retorted, “I’m not a gentleman.”

Hearing this, Shane shrank back.

Ibrahim motioned for Ethan to calm down. “Mr. Jackson, take it easy. Let me handle this.”

He took the contract and approached Shane. “Mr. Benderson, let me explain. If you had just signed the contract earlier, we wouldn’t be in this mess. You’ve been using a video to threaten Mr. Jackson. Did you ever consider that you also have your dirty laundry?”

Shane remained defiant. “So, you’re saying I have a few skeletons in my closet. That’s not a big deal, you can just call the cops on me if you want.”

Ibrahim chuckled. “Mr. Benderson, do you think no one knows about your drug use and dealing?”

Shane’s face paled instantly. His drug use had been a long-standing issue, but he had only dealt drugs once and then stopped because he didn’t have a stable supply to continue and was fear of the severe consequences like a death sentence. He couldn’t believe that Ibrahim had discovered this.

In disbelief, Shane looked at Ethan. “Mr. Jackson, did you investigate me?”

Ethan hadn’t investigated him and Ibrahim was the one who found out. However, he wasn’t going to miss the chance to claim credit saying, “Why, can’t! investigate you? You messed with me, Shane, and now you’re going to pay for it.”

Shane was instantly terrified. “Please, don’t tell anyone. Mr. Jackson, I’ll sign the contract. Right now.”

Shane quickly grabbed a pen and signed his name on the contract, muttering, I’ll repay

ay you in half a month, just half a month.”

“Half a month? That’s not acceptable, Mr. Benderson. The minimum term is two months.”

“What?” Shane was stunned.

Two months meant that he would owe Ethan 30 million dollars and he simply didn’t have that much money.

Ibrahim clicked his tongue before saying, “Mr. Benderson, what are you questioning? Do you think there’s still room for negotiation? If you don’t want to borrow for two months, I can call the police right now and have them come over. How about that?”

Ibrahim was true to his word and pulled out his phone to start dialing.

Shane immediately pleaded, “No, please don’t agree, two months will be fine.”

Ibrahim looked pleased. “See, Mr. Benderson? If you had agreed earlier, we could have settled this in the first minute of our meeting. In that case, we won’t waste each other’s time, don’t you think so?”

Hence, he handed the contract to Ethan, who took it and smiled triumphantly “Alright, that’s it for today, Shane, remember to repay the money jobwo

months!

ying this, Ethan got up and left, with Ibrahim following closely behind.

After saying

60%

Watching the two walk away, Shane regretted deeply, wishing he could travel back to last night and slap himself for scheming against Ethan. He covered his face and cried out in despair, “It’s over, everything is over!”

At the Norwood International Airport, Gina was waiting for the flight to Mosnioca as Dylan had already placed the order for the medical equipment she required.

Given the high value of the equipment, she wanted to personally oversee both its shipment and storage to avoid any future disputes.

Additionally, according to Michael’s information, Keith was still alive but had been smuggled out of Shyran, possibly to Mosniaca through sea transport Gina had arranged for people at various ports in Mosnicca to inform her of any updates so she could rescue Keith

After boarding the plane, Gina noticed Ethan was also on board.

Ethan, who had been lounging comfortably, became uneasy upon seeing Gina and wondered why she was on the same flight.

Gina glanced at Ethan but then ignored him, while Ethan kept sneaking glances at her,

On the other hand, Gina paid him no mind and slept through the flight.

After getting off the plane, Gina, who had enough rest, went straight to the medical equipment company, YL Medtechs.

Upon arrival, Gina met with the sales manager, who greeted her. “Miss Miller, welcome. You must be tired after such a long flight. Let me take you to the VIP lounge to rest for a bit. Our boss will come to greet you personally.”

Gina refused, “No need for all that. Just take me to inspect the equipment”

The manager

was surprised by Gina’s straightforwardness and hesitated. “Miss Miller, I’m sorry, but I can’t take you to inspect the equipment just yet.”

“Why not?” Gina asked succinctly.

The manager smiled apologetically. “Miss Miller, I’m sorry, but I can’t say. Is it okay for our boss to explain everything when he arrives?”

“No,” Gina replied.

Her answer left the manager at a loss. “Well, this is

“Is there something wrong with the equipment? Is it damaged? If there’s a problem, just tell me directly. Don’t beat around the bush.”

er was helpless. “Miss Miller, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you, I really can’t. Only our boss can discuss this matter with you.”

The manager

“Fine, then where is he?”

“He’s in his office, but he’s currently meeting with a customer, so he can’t see you right now,” the manager explained.

Gina would never make things difficult for the staff, but she had made an appointment with the boss, who had assured her that he would meet her as soon as she arrived. Yet now, during her scheduled time, he was with another customer.

Gina found it unacceptable and said firmly. “Take the to your boss’s office.”

The manager was troubled. “This…”

“you don’t lead me, I’ll replace it myself.” Gina stepped out, ready to search on her own

Worried that Gina would disturb others by wandering around, the manager quickly went forward to stop her. “Miss Miller, please wait. I’ll take you to him.”

Gina followed the manager to the CEO’s office and as soon as the manager opened the door, she saw Ethan sitting on the sofa.
