Chapter 397 I Want 60 Million Dollars
The driver left Ava at the farmhouse and returned to Docwood.
“Mr. Noah, I’ve done as you instructed,” he said.
“Okay,” Noah replied nonchalantly.
He had gotten Ava out of sight, and the next target was Calvin. The person to unveil Chloe’s identity had to be him.
Not even Joseph stood a chance. After brief contemplation, he made a video call to Calvin.
The man in question was berating his managers when he saw the incoming call and waved them away. Moving his
mouse, he clicked to answer.
The face of a young man appeared on the screen, smiling as he looked at Calvin. “I have something to tell you.”
Calvin was curious. “What is it?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe knew Noah had something up his sleeve, and he was curious to know what he had to say.
“It’s about Aunt Luciana’s daughter.”
“You found her?!” Calvin could not hide his excitement and sat up straight.
“No.” Noah shook his head. “The current issue is that Aunt Luciana’s jewelry has appeared on the market. There’s a
possibility that it might be exploited by someone with ill intentions. You and I have to keep this matter confidential.”
“Understood,” Calvin replied as his face turned serious. Exotic Star was one of the tops in the jewelry industry. If
someone were to use Luciana’s name for some ulterior motive or impersonate her daughter like Ava had, it could
cause great distress to Desmond and his wife.
The light reflecting off the mobile phone screen illuminated Noah’s face, giving it a slightly sickly pallor. “Make sure
no one ever finds out about it. Don’t say too much to anyone who asks. I’ve gathered some clues on my end.”
“All right. Do you need my help?”
“No, I can handle it,” he replied casually before asking, “Grandpa mentioned that Aunt Luciana changed her name
after leaving the Sullivans, right?”
“Yes, she did.” Calvin sighed. It was precisely because of that change that he had been unable to locate her all
these years.
A peculiar gleam appeared in Noah’s Innocent eyes. This was just as he wanted it. Even if Joseph were to discover
something, it would be in vain if the name could not be matched.
At Fairlight, Jonathan and Joseph were locked in a deadlock, the atmosphere chilling to its core.
Finally, Jonathan bowed his head and pleaded, “Joe, the microchip research industry is a prominent force both
nationally and globally. Just last month, I made an investment in an AI chip research company based in Ameria. If
they manage to sell the chips, I’ll receive a dividend of 15 million dollars. I initially invested only 3 million, and the
returns have multiplied several times over.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJoseph could not help but smirk, his mocking tone evident on his face. “Man plans, and god laughs. In recent years,
with the declining demand in the chip industry and the concentrated. release of production capacity, it has become
increasingly difficult to achieve remarkable results. What does it matter to be a leading industry when money can
decide so much in a capital-rich environment? What makes a third-rate company stand out among the numerous
chip giants?”
“Joe, this isn’t some third-rate company. Everyone on the team is a top genius. They refuse to leave even after
some of the big players in the industry offered them exorbitant salaries,” Jonathan said impatiently, “You’re in the
financial industry, so you might not be familiar with the tech field. Their team is currently researching automotive
chips, and if they succeed, I can expect 300 million dollars in return. But more importantly, my name will be known
throughout the world.”
“Fine. Do as you please,” Joseph said coolly, unwilling to waste more words.
“But you have to provide me with 60 million dollars as seed money. Once the project is a success, I’ll return you the
money and an additional 15 million dollars as interest.”
