Sophia, who was watching the scene, felt like she was in a dream. She was completely dumbfounded. She had no idea how Leo could be so wealthy.
Only later did she find out that Leo had already repaid the ten billion loan long ago. Today was just a staged performance with Logan that he had arranged.
Sean almost spat out blood on the spot. He slumped into a chair, his face filled with despair and dejection.
Leo smirked mysteriously and said to Logan, “Logan, can I borrow two billion from your bank now?”
What?
He had just repaid one billion, and now he was asking for a loan of two billion?
“Mr. Bloomer, is it in the name of the Henley’s Corp?” Logan was not surprised but delighted.
Among all the people in the conference room, only Logan had a deep understanding of Leo’s wealth.
As the manager of the credit department, Logan loved clients with excellent qualifications who needed large loans the most.
“No, it’s in my personal name,” Leo said calmly.
“What? Did you all hear that? Leo wants to borrow two billion in his personal name. Is he crazy? Does he really think he’s rich?”
“I bet he won’t be able to borrow two billion. Aside from the Henley’s Corp, who does he think he is? The bank is not a charity, how could they lend him two billion…”
“Mr. Bloomer, no problem. You’ve done me a big favor again, helping me exceed my targets!” Logan stepped forward, tightly shaking Leo’s hand with gratitude.
“Don’t worry, I’ll inform the loan center immediately and process your application through the high-level VIP green channel on a super-priority basis!”
What?
What’s going on?
Is this credit department manager crazy?
He agreed so readily and is so grateful to Leo.
What’s even more infuriating is that they will process the loan through the high-level VIP green channel on a super-priority basis!
“Pinch me, am I dreaming? A useless son-in-law like Leo can borrow two billion from the bank?”
“Oh my God, this completely shatters my worldview. This client manager must be an idiot.”
Sophia walked to Leo’s side, looking at him with a puzzled expression. “Leo, you… borrowing two billion?”
“Yeah, the bank’s money is just sitting there anyway. Why not borrow some to circulate it?” Leo smiled mysteriously.
Sophia asked in astonishment, “Are you in need of money? You just repaid one billion in loans, why…”
Leo smiled wryly. “Now that you’re the chairman of the Henley’s Corp, it’s up to you to clean up the mess. Is two billion enough? If it’s not, we can borrow more from Logan.”
Sophia was shocked and her face paled. “Are you saying that you borrowed two billion in your personal name to revive the Henley’s Corp?”
“Otherwise, what else would I do with these two billion?” Leo replied.
Sophia’s heart warmed, and she smiled calmly. She playfully pulled Leo’s hand and said, “You’re so kind!”
“Hehe, you’re my wife after all, right?”
Sean felt like dying. Who the hell was this son-in-law Leo? He had repaid one billion loan with a single move. And in an instant, he directly borrowed two billion from the bank as working capital for Sophia to take over the Henley’s Corp.
Two billion! What did Sean have to compete with Sophia?
Fanny, standing beside Sean, was at a loss. She wanted to cry but had no tears left.
Sean stood up with an inflated chest, glared at Leo and Sophia, and fiercely said, “Leo, Sophia, don’t get too cocky. Today, I admit defeat. Let’s wait and see!”
Leo smiled calmly, “Sean, if you don’t want to die, come at me.”
Sean waved his hand angrily and left the meeting room filled with resentment.
Fanny didn’t dare to stay, hastily following him out.
Logan walked up to Sophia with a smile and said, “Mrs. Bloomer, is two billion enough? If it’s not, I can talk to the credit center and arrange for another two billion without any problem!”
“What? Another two billion? Logan, are you out of your mind?” Sophia asked in astonishment.
Logan chuckled, “Mrs. Bloomer, with Mr. Bloomer’s connections, borrowing a few hundred billion is just small change.”
Sophia widened her eyes, surprised by the notion that a few hundred billion was considered small change.
It seemed that it wasn’t Logan who was out of touch, but Leo!
Sophia smiled gracefully, “Logan, two billion is enough. There’s no need for additional funds.”
“Alright, if you’re sure, I’ll arrange it immediately!” Logan’s face lit up like a radiant flower as he went to handle the loan matters.
Sophia walked slowly to the main seat in the conference room and looked around at the Henley family members. She spoke in a clear voice, “Everyone, I know you must have many doubts, but please rest assured. Time is the best proof, and I will prove that I have genuinely contributed to the family.”
“Welcome to continue serving the Henley’s Corp. Of course, it’s voluntary. Furthermore, I want to make it clear that from now on, the management of the Henley’s Corp will be carried out according to my requirements. If I find anyone pursuing personal interests at the expense of the company, they will not be spared!”
The Henley family members looked at each other and quickly reached a consensus.
They had all heard what Leo said earlier.
With two billion in operational capital, the struggling Henley’s Corp was given a new lease on life.
Once Sophia took over the Henley’s Corp, there would be a complete transformation.
In other words, working with Sophia would bring substantial profits in return.
“Sophia, we’re following you!”
“That’s right, Sophia, you have always been our pillar of strength. Any past offenses were merely instigated by Bruno, Fanny, and those worthless individuals.”
“You’re right. From now on, the Henley family and the Henley’s Corp will revolve around Sophia!”
“You guys, why are you so unruly? You should address her as Chairman.”
“Yes, yes, Chairman!”
Sophia knew that these people changed their allegiance based on their interests.
As long as she could help them earn profits, they didn’t care who was the family head or the chairman.
But Sophia didn’t mind. As long as these people followed her earnestly and worked hard, it would be enough.
Sophia believed that through her efforts, she could lead the Henley’s Corp to greatness.
“Very well, since you have all made your decision, it’s time to see your performance,” Sophia declared loudly.
Someone started clapping, and soon the entire conference room erupted with thunderous applause.
Leo walked up to Sophia’s side, leaning in closer and whispered, “My dear wife, your presence is truly formidable!”
