“Strong? How strong are you?”
“Just a little brat!” Flynn sneered.
Layla Woods calmly said, “Some things cannot be solved with money alone.”
“If you participate in this competition, you will end up embarrassing yourself, and the Sharp’s Group will become a laughingstock.”
“At that time, you will see how strong I am.”
Flynn laughed and then yawned lazily. He looked at Layla Woods with a smirk but didn’t say anything.
He was more than willing to slap Layla Woods in the face with five hundred billion dollars directly, but Rose wanted to make more profit, so he let her do as she pleased.
“Lilia Hussain, Mr. Hewson is still waiting for us. Let’s go,” Layla Woods said coldly and turned around to leave without saying another word to Flynn.
She was more than happy to see a stubborn fool like him beaten.
She had given Flynn several chances already, but instead of being grateful, he even tried to have her assassinated.
This kind of man didn’t deserve any pity.
Flynn was still alive thanks to Adrianna Noble’s benevolence. Otherwise, with just the assassination attempt alone, Flynn would have died eight times over!
However, Flynn’s expression just now was filled with confidence, as if he was sure he would win.
Layla Woods was a bit puzzled.
Lilia Hussain glanced at Flynn and followed Layla Woods, saying, “I plan to start the business war tomorrow. I will gradually invest funds into the stock market to hinder the Sharp’s Group’s stocks and projects.”
Rose had eight hundred billion in funds, which put some pressure on Lilia Hussain, but it had minimal effect.
After all, she had over one hundred billion in her hands.
“This game has only just become interesting. What surprises me the most is Flynn.”
“But his ability is only this much. If he wants me to beg him in bed, it can only happen in his dreams.”
If Flynn was an ant before, after the banquet two days ago, in Lilia Hussain’s eyes, he had become a wolf.
An unexpected wild wolf.
But who was Lilia Hussain?
Not to mention Layla Woods, even Lysander King had to give her face!
Layla Woods frowned slightly and said, “Let’s wait a little longer. I feel like something is not right.”
“Didn’t you say that Rose and Flynn didn’t make any moves after the banquet?”
“Flynn even went to Pelens for two days without any worries about the future.”
Lilia Hussain sneered and shook her head. “It’s simple. They underestimated us or pretended to be calm and played mind games! Rose has done it before.”
“They fooled us with Cruz Brooks for such a long time!”
Was the Hussain Group’s business alliance simply having hundreds of billions in funds? There was also support from more than a dozen major companies!
The Sharp’s Group only had a few local businesses, like Orion Kennedy, as its support. They were at a disadvantage in all aspects. How could they win?
Layla Woods still wore a look of concern as she said, “I understand what you mean, but I still think it’s better to be cautious.”
“There have been too many events happening lately. We should take some time to sift through all the information.”
“After all, in this business war, losing could leave you with no way back, and I wouldn’t be able to save you.”
“Just think about it. If Flynn suddenly has twelve billion dollars, can we really be sure he won’t pull out another ten billion?”
“If that’s the case, their funds would match ours, making it difficult for us to swallow the Sharp Group.”
The more Layla thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. How could a convict suddenly come up with twelve billion dollars out of nowhere?
Orion Kennedy and Edwin Gallagher showed no signs of action either. This was very unusual.
For ten years, the Woods family hadn’t provided any funding, and Layla Woods had only offered connections and support.
As a result, they obtained one of the companies from the Sharp’s Group.
But over these years, the Woods family and the Hussain family had shared resources and engaged in deep cooperation.
They were deeply intertwined, with their interests intricately linked.
If the Hussain family fell apart, the Woods family would also suffer heavy losses.
“Bring out another 10 billion dollars?” Lilia Hussain sneered. “Layla Woods, you’re giving him way too much credit, aren’t you?”
“You know so many people. You even invited Wakasa Consortium. You barely managed to bring out 10 billion dollars.”
“Even if Flynn has great abilities, can he compare to your resources and connections that you’ve built over ten years?”
“Besides, if the Sharp’s Group wants to swallow us up, they need at least 40 billion dollars.”
“Do you think Flynn can do it?”
Layla Woods was so powerful. People in Ostrad knew of her extraordinary beauty and capabilities. Could Flynn, who had spent ten years in prison, surpass her or stand on equal footing with her?
Even a three-year-old child wouldn’t believe it!
Layla Woods nodded and smiled self-deprecatingly. “During this time, Rose has thrown out too many smokescreens, which made me have illusions. Maybe I’m overthinking it.”
“No matter how capable Flynn is, he can’t possibly bring out another 30 billion dollars.”
“Even with 80 billion dollars, he poses no threat to us. In the end, we will swallow him up.”
“This business war will soon come to an end. Rose deserves respect, but unfortunately, she met me.”
“As for Flynn… he is destined to lose everything.”
Lilia Hussain laughed and said confidently, “Exactly! With one hundred and fifty billion in my hands, how could I possibly lose?”
“Don’t worry! I won’t be careless. I will steadily defeat the Sharp’s Group!”
“150 billion dollars? Wasn’t it 130 billion dollars yesterday?” Layla Woods raised an eyebrow.
Lilia Hussain smiled proudly. “Komatsu Conglomerate that you brought invested an additional 3 billion dollars with me.”
“Takada Kazuo?” Layla Woods was somewhat surprised. “Actually, he came to Niarak not just for this business war but mainly to assess the Ostrad markets.”
“But it’s been so long since I last saw him. How did you get in touch with him? And how did you get him to add an additional 3 billion dollars in investment?”
When Flynn killed Maximo Goff that day, Layla Woods came to Niarak with Takada Kazuo.
However, due to a series of events and Layla Woods’ status as someone who didn’t need to grovel before Takada Kazuo, she didn’t pay much attention to him.
“Oh… I guess he thinks we’re going to win and wants to make more profit,” Lilia Hussain smiled faintly but with some stiffness and complexity in her eyes.
Layla Woods nodded. “It’s fine if they want more profit, but don’t get too close to them. The Wakasa people are cunning and treacherous. Don’t trust them too much!”
She sought investment from Komatsu Conglomerate but didn’t consider them as friends.
She merely cured Komatsu Conglomerate’s boss and they agreed to collaborate with her. It was simply a matter of self-interest.
“I know,” Lilia Hussain said lightly with some evasiveness in her eyes.
…
While Flynn was having breakfast, his phone rang.
“Odin Hamilton?”
Flynn was taken aback but answered the call anyway. Immediately, on the other end of the line was a crying voice.
“Flynn! Something happened! Save my wife! Save her!”
“What happened?” Flynn’s face immediately darkened as he became alarmed.
“Georgina got into a car accident! She’s in the emergency room at Niarak Hospital bleeding heavily! So much blood! Hurry up and come save her!”
“Flynn, I’m begging you! If Georgina dies, I won’t live either! I won’t live! Ahhh…”
