Chapter 1103: Chapter 1103: Being Severely Humiliated! Chapter 1103: Chapter 1103: Being Severely Humiliated! “Enough.” The burly man on the sofa stood up and walked over to Jacob Clark. He stretched out his hand and casually patted Jacob’s cheek, chuckling mockingly, “President Clark is quite a figure, aren’t you? The brothers here are well aware of that. If your company were still running, I would believe your words, President Clark. But now, I’m afraid even the beggars on the streets have more money than you do. Why should I believe you’d repay the debt when you say you will?”
“Millions, not just a few hundred dollars. If President Clark runs away, what are the brothers going to take to cover for you?”
Juliet Jordan, who had been coldly watching Jacob be insulted, suddenly frowned and asked sternly, “Millions? What millions?”
Didn’t he just mortgage the family’s house, cars, and stocks?
At most, they would just take those things away. Why would he owe millions?
Jacob’s face, struck, burned painfully. Accustod to luxury, his face turned a mix of pale and flushed with extre anger and sha, and he almost lost control of himself as the muscles on his temples bulged and he clenched his fists.
But seeing the other five tattooed burly n sitting on the sofa motionless, he begrudgingly swallowed his anger!
The sa man, expecting a bit of manly assertiveness from Jacob but seeing none, looked at him with even greater mockery. He withdrew his hand and answered Juliet’s question with nonchalance, “Madam President Clark is joking with , or perhaps President Clark hasn’t inford you? He didn’t just mortgage the house, car, and stocks with us; he also borrowed a substantial amount of money.”
He turned back, glanced at Jacob with a displeased face, and said, “Oh, right, President Clark, I heard you didn’t just borrow money from us. You also borrowed a significant sum from Brother Paul, didn’t you?”
Juliet knew very well who Brother Paul was!
The Clark Family was in the real estate business, which inevitably involved dealings with so shady powers over property issues. This Brother Paul was a well-known loan shark in Linton City.
He specialized in the business of lending money and collecting debts.
With many little brothers at his disposal, his thods of raising funds were endless.
Jacob had collaborated with Brother Paul several tis before, leaving his competitors destitute and ruined. There was even an incident she rembered that resulted in a fatality, where a competitor’s boss’s wife was driven to suicide by jumping off a building.
She had never imagined that one day, she would fall from creditor to a debtor herself!
With extre unease, Juliet widened her eyes and glared at the man beside her, overwheld with indignation, “Have you lost your mind! Knowing full well what kind of person Brother Paul is, you still borrowed from him! Jacob Clark! What else have you been hiding from !”
Jacob Clark remained silent.
He had previously thought that certain stock would surely increase tenfold, and in order to earn more money to teach his disobedient daughter a lesson, he had let greed take over montarily.
He never imagined that a montary lapse of greed would lead to such severe consequences.
The man with sunglasses continued to stir the pot from the sidelines with snide remarks, “Yeah, I’m curious too about what President Clark was thinking. Borrowing money from our boss is one thing; our boss is a good man and won’t do anything to President Clark, just send a few brothers to ‘persuade’ President Clark to repay the loan. But Brother Paul isn’t as gentle as our boss; he still doesn’t know about President Clark’s stock losses. Once he finds out, he’ll probably co looking for President Clark right away. What do you plan to say to Brother Paul then? Will you speak frankly to him, like you’ve been with the brothers here, promising you’ll definitely repay?”
