Chapter 377
That being said, Christian still did not know what the situation was with his family’s company. He hoped that he could quickly set the contract before Peter found out that there was a problem with the Kent family’s capital chain.
Christian glanced at Old Master Han, who was lying at the side, and cursed in his heart. Damn it! Who would have thought that the old man in tattered clothes was actually Peter’s father? If he could really confirm the cooperation at this moment, he would have no problem acknowledging that old man as his father.
Peter glanced at Christian. This person was really muddle-headed. Now, he was threatening him instead!
Sharon smiled sternly. “No wonder you raised such a daughter. I didn’t expect you to leave out the shameless actions you had done.”
“I have a good background and a lot of money. I can make up for the misunderstanding with Mr. Han just now, so I hope Mr. Han can give me another chance.” Christian looked at Peter shamelessly. In his heart, out of business considerations, Peter would still choose him over Wallace.
“Your funds are about to be cut off, so you shouldn’t say things like having a good background and a lot of money too early.” Sharon repeated calmly to Christian.
“Sharon, how dare you curse our family. You’re too much!” Kayla shouted. She didn’t believe that her family would go bankrupt!
Christian was also stunned, it seemed as if he had not understood her words.
Just as he was about to say something, his phone suddenly rang. He did not want to answer it, but with one call after another, he could not refuse.
He glared at Sharon fiercely and picked up his phone impatiently. “Hurry up and say what you want.”
For some reason, Christian felt very uneasy, as if he had expected something bad to happen.
“Chairman Kent, it’s bad, it’s really bad. The shareholders who were originally going to cooperate with us suddenly said that they had submitted all the projects that they had worked with the Kent Corporation for review. Besides that, the bank loans have also been stopped... The second-phase funds used for the project with Sullivan have also been stopped... And the Xavier family... has also canceled the contract with us.”
Christian trembled as he listened to the person on the phone. He could not say a word, but the voice on the phone did not stop.
“...At present, there’s another company that has proposed to terminate the contract with the Kent Corporation and request us to compensate them for a portion of the penalty fee. Sullivan has also proposed that the deadline is coming soon. We have to complete the first phase as soon as possible, but because we were also working with a few other companies previously...”
“President Walter of Dank Finance called. He wants to ask when we can repay our project loan. The latest deadline he can offer is four months later. Otherwise, they will immediately go through legal procedures and seal the building.”
Christian broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this. How could such a thing happen? Originally, the loan from Dank was used for the second phase of the project with Sullivan. However, because of his big appetite, he had invested the funds into other projects before the second phase had been signed.
If this situation continued, the Kent family would go bankrupt just as Sharon had said!
Christian’s terrible state was visible to the naked eye. Kayla looked at her father’s pale face and asked anxiously, “Dad, are you alright?”
!! Did something happen?
Could it be that he didn’t sleep well, so his head wasn’t clear? Or was he actually still having nightmares? Even if he was unlucky, it shouldn’t be to this extent. It was as if everyone had agreed to find trouble with him.
What exactly was going on! Everything was as Sharon had said. The Kent family was really done for... After all, it was still a corporation with such significant influence in New York. They were caught off guard by such a sudden incident.
The consecutive blows made Christian’s vision darken. It was not easy for him to even stand firm. He forced his swaying body not to fall.
The people present did not know who called him and caused his expression to change drastically, as if there was an emergency. They could not help but feel puzzled.
“Doctor Leonard, is your Boss Kent suddenly sick too?”
In the face of Sharon’s sudden question, Leonard’s expression turned really terrible too. He smiled awkwardly and replied, “Haha... Haha, maybe that’s the case! Mr. Kent might have a problem with his brain and can’t even remember his own identity...”
