Chapter 1564 Sixty Million
“I asked you to request for fifty million, but how much did you ask instead?”
“Five hundred million.”
“Why did you ask for five hundred million?” Davin gritted his teeth in anger.
Harry laughed naively. “I assumed that you would give me two hundred thousand if you got fifty million. Then, wouldn’t you give me four hundred thousand if you got a hundred million? And so you would give me two million if I manage to get five hundred million. Mr. Davin, don’t be stingy with two million. The two million I’m asking for can’t even compare to the five hundred million you’ll be getting.”
“Your greed ruined my plan. I didn’t even dare to ask for five hundred million. How dare you?”
“Tell me. Perhaps your family owns a gold mine? Or is your father a wealthy millionaire?”
Stunned by Davin’s question, he looked at Davin hesitantly. “Mr. Davin, I-I simply wanted a bit more.”
“Wanted a bit more? Did you think what you asked for is simply a bit more? You-! Whatever! I don’t want to waste my breath with you. Go inside and negotiate for fifty million. If you’re successful, then I’ll let this matter go. If not, I’ll have you be a gigolo and get my money back with you entertaining those wealthy women.”
The bulky figures of those wealthy women started to pop up in his mind. Worried his body wouldn’t be able to withstand the torture from those women and ruined his body. He couldn’t let that happen because he didn’t have a wife yet. He still needed to pass on his family line, so he definitely didn’t want to be a gigolo.
He swallowed the knot in his throat. “I’ll negotiate with him. I’ll do it now, and I’ll get it done even though I have to treat him respectfully like he’s my grandfather.”
“Are you dumb? He won’t even negotiate with you if you start treating him respectfully. Don’t even expect to get ten million. Well, you might as well cut him and make him realize his life is very important!”
Harry pondered Davin’s words briefly and realized his words made sense. “Understood, Mr. Davin. I’ll make sure to get it done properly.”
He then spun around, heading for the room. Once he reached the door, he took out a dagger.
Desmond felt the murderous vibe from Harry and snorted, “What? Are you planning to kill me because I didn’t agree to five hundred million? Go ahead and kill me then. You’re not going to get anything with me dead.”
“You’re a coward. A mere five hundred million stunned you to such a state. Haven’t you bragged about how ten million was nothing to you earlier? Your words were nothing.”
Desmond looked up at him. “I did brag about ten million, but that’s the extent. I can’t give you any more than that.”
“Fine, let’s talk. You considered five hundred million to be too much while I considered ten million to be too little. How about we each take a step back and compromise for a hundred million?”
Desmond rolled his eyes at his suggestion. “I don’t have that much.”
“Eighty million?”
Desmond sneered coldly, “I don’t have that much!”
“Sixty million.”
Desmond retorted determinedly, “Nope!”
Harry knew Desmond wouldn’t relent without a push.
He raised his hand with the dagger and stabbed into Desmond’s thigh ruthlessly. Desmond yelled at the sudden stabbing pain.
“Why are you shouting? If you don’t even have sixty million, I might as well kill you. Each stab equates to ten thousand. Stabbing you six thousand times should ensure you being dead.”
He pulled out his dagger from Desmond’s thigh as he said. As he was about to stab again, Desmond stopped him. “No! Don’t!”
“You choose between money and your life!”
“Can you reduce…”
“No! Didn’t you say earlier about how money means nothing to you? Sixty million is a good price. I’m not accepting anything lower than that.”
Desmond was dumbstruck by his words.
Noting Desmond’s reluctance, he stabbed the former’s thigh again. Desmond let out another painful scream. “No! Don’t stab me anymore! Fine, sixty million then!”
Glee filled Harry. “Isn’t it better if you had agreed sooner?”
I should have stopped yapping and just stabbed him in the first place. I even got ten million more than Mr. Davin anticipated. Would Mr. Davin give me more in turn?
Davin glanced at Desmond’s bloody thigh nervously. I didn’t imagine Harry to be so ruthless. He didn’t even blink as he stabbed Desmond. He might prove to be useful.
