“Madeline Kaur! You idiot, what are we going to do now? Speak!”
“Flynn refused to help, the contract couldn’t be signed, and there’s no hope for Ponocord Bay. How are we going to repay the two billion? You’re the jinx of the Kaur family!”
“You still want to be like Layla Woods? I don’t think you can even reach her little toe. Arrogant and narcissistic waste!”
Flynn took a dozen beautiful women up the mountain, and the Kaur family watched as the convoy disappeared into the lush forest. The silence turned into a storm of criticism.
They vented all their anger on Madeline Kaur, jumping and cursing like a group of shrews attacking one woman.
Two billion!
They had only five days left!
If they couldn’t repay it, the Kaur family would go bankrupt in an instant. With Frederick Powell’s wealth and status, no one from the Kaur family will have a good life!
Even though Frederick Powell lost his biological father and godfather, he inherited all their fortunes!
A whopping hundred billion! The leaders of the Eight Extremities School and his two fathers have good relationships with him. His power was still intact! The Kaur family couldn’t afford to provoke him!
Frank Kaur also looked disappointed, shaking his head. “I shouldn’t have entrusted the Kaur’s Group to you. You’ve let me down!”
“You’re good at causing trouble when you achieve nothing!”
Max Kaur’s eyes were cold as he sneered. “Old man, what did I say before? Madeline Kaur is just a narcissistic delusional woman.”
“She doesn’t have any real ability. If my daughter were the CEO, would the Kaur family be in this situation?”
“Jakub’s family is useless!”
Hearing their words, the anger of the Kaur family grew stronger, and they rained insults upon Madeline Kaur.
“Madeline Kaur, listen to me carefully. Even if you have to sell yourself or become a whore, you better get that two billion for me. Otherwise, I’ll kill you! You bitch!”
“Frederick Powell is young and arrogant. Sleep with him and serve him well for six months to pay off the debt! Go now!”
“Yes! Since you’re so beautiful, go sleep with Frederick Powell or find a rich man, even if he’s sixty years old. As long as he’s willing to give two billion, become his mistress for life!”
The malicious insults rained down on Madeline Kaur. Paulina Johnston became numb, her eyes empty as her weak body trembled uncontrollably. She felt anger but didn’t dare utter a word. She was terrified. She worried not only about the future of the Kaur family but also about being torn apart by them.
The Kaur family only cared about money now. As long as she said a word in defense of her daughter, they would break her legs!
She also regretted it a little in her heart. If she had treated Flynn better before, would she be in such a miserable state now? Even if Flynn was doomed to fail, Marcel Hill wouldn’t have demanded compensation beforehand, and her daughter wouldn’t have borrowed the two hundred million loan.
The contracts with Charlie Carlson and others would have been fulfilled.
The Kaur family’s profit this year was guaranteed at eight billion.
Earning eight billion in a year would make them famous in Niarak!
She could also wear gold and silver and live in Thodell Mansion as the wife of a billionaire…
But now she had a debt of two hundred million, facing a bleak future that seemed devoid of hope.
Madeline Kaur was already in tears, and after being scolded by the Kaur family members, she completely broke down emotionally.
If this had happened before their divorce, Flynn would have definitely stood up for her when she was insulted by the Kaur family.
Human beings only cherished something after losing it.
“Grandfather, don’t worry. Dr. Woods promised last time that if they take over the Sharp’s Group, they will repay those two hundred million on behalf of Braiden Swanson.”
“Now that Layla Woods has hundreds of billions in funds and a comprehensive business war is about to begin, they will definitely win!”
“Dr. Woods is not someone who goes back on her word. She will definitely give me two hundred million!”
Madeline Kaur said firmly.
“Is that true? Did Dr. Woods really promise to pay the debt for us?” Frank Kaur’s eyes lit up with excitement as he hurriedly asked.
Madeline Kaur nodded repeatedly and recounted what had happened in Northview a few days ago.
“Great! This is wonderful news! The Kaur family still has hope!”
“Ms. Woods is the Woods family’s legitimate daughter. She’s certainly not short on money and will definitely keep her word!”
“Even if we resolve the issue of the two hundred million in debt, we still have to deal with the high-interest loans. We’ll need to pay at least a few million more.”
The Kaur family members relaxed a bit, at least refraining from cursing, but their spirits remained low.
They were confident that Sharp’s Group would fail, and that Layla Woods would come through with the funds.
However, even after repaying the loans, the Kaur family wouldn’t see any income this year.
The Kaur family relied heavily on the Kaur’s Group for their livelihood!
Madeline Kaur noticed the concern etched on everyone’s faces. Wiping away her tears, she said, “Grandpa, the Kaur’s Group has a market value of forty million. If we mortgage the company, we could secure a loan of a hundred million from the bank.”
“Lilia Hussain is still raising funds. While she may not think much of this amount, I can approach Layla Woods. She’ll convince Lilia Hussain to let the Kaur family invest.”
“As long as we invest in Lilia Hussain, we’ll be able to make a profit!”
The spirits of the Kaur family members were lifted by Madeline’s words.
“That’s right! Ms. Hussain will soon acquire the Sharp’s Group. Everyone says that if she takes it over, Lilia Hussain will earn 150 billion! The return on investment will be fifty percent!”
“Fifty percent? So investing one hundred million will earn us fifty million?”
“Great! That’s fantastic! Fifty million is not bad at all. We’ll have our year-end bonuses!”
Frank Kaur also became excited and laughed. “Madeline is really good at business. I’ve decided. We’ll consider all fifty million as bonuses!”
This decision immediately brought cheers from the Kaur family members as they rubbed their hands together in excitement.
Paulina Johnston saw everyone so enthusiastic and her spirits lifted too. She smiled and said,
“Now is a critical moment for the Kaur family. I propose that each family puts all their savings into investing in Dragon Gate Group. This is a good opportunity. Why not go all in and make a hefty profit?”
“Now and never!”
These words stunned everyone. They looked at each other with desire in their eyes but didn’t dare speak.
The old man glanced at everyone lightly and said calmly, “Paulina Johnston is right. This opportunity is rare, and I know all of you have a lot of savings. There’s no need to hide anything.”
“Speak up. I won’t delve into it.”
“If you’re willing to invest, we’ll distribute dividends based on your investment once the Sharp’s Group is taken over!”
The Kaur’s Group was a family business with department heads who were all relatives.
The situation of embezzling funds was an open secret. It was just never discussed openly.
With these words from the old man, the spirits of the Kaur family members soared. They all expressed their intentions.
“I have six million at home. I’ll invest it all!”
“I have five hundred ten thousand. Count me in!”
“I have three hundred sixty thousand. I’m investing!”
In an instant, everyone revealed their assets.
Madeline Kaur listened to everyone reporting their numbers and was dumbfounded.
Everyone had made quite a bit of money these past few years!
She was completely clueless while only receiving thirty thousand dollars as her monthly salary…
In just one minute, the combined assets of the Kaur family members exceeded eighty million dollars.
Some were more greedy and decided to borrow money for additional investments. In doing so, the entire extended Kaur family managed to scrape together one hundred million dollars in cash!
By mortgaging the Kaur’s Group as well, they had another two hundred million dollars.
Investing two hundred million dollars would yield one hundred million dollars in profit.
The Kaur family would soon be rich again!
