Chapter 289: One hundred billion seconds to account, who is Beckett’s boss?

    Chapter 289: One hundred billion seconds to ount, who is Beckett’s boss?


    Huh?


    Upon hearing Beckett’s words, Sherry Jones was startled and instinctively pulled out her mobile phone.


    The moment she pulled out her mobile phone, the phone screen suddenly flickered and a message popped up.


    [Sayon Bank, your ount 6542 has received a transfer of 100 billion dors at 10:27 on October 5th…]


    Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands…


    Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands…


    Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands…


    That’s one hundred billion! Make it truly one hundred billion!


    Fearing her eyes were ying tricks on her, Sherry Jones counted the string of figures three times. The result was always the same.


    One hundred billion was credited. It truly was one hundred billion that was credited!


    This…


    Staring dumbfounded at her phone screen, Sherry Jones was left in her tracks, a look of shock filling her face.


    Seeing this, Grandy Anderson immediately furrowed her brows tightly, seeming to smell something unusual.


    At that moment, Beckett, who was standing behind Sherry Jones, gently reminded her.


    Snapping back to reality, Sherry Jones hurriedly held her phone up to David Herb, saying decisively, “Mr. Herb, I’ve got an additional one hundred billion dors.”


    A hundred billion?!


    Upon hearing her words, the faces of the others at the event changed instantly, and they all froze on the spot.


    “Impossible, definitely impossible! Sherry Jones can’t afford one hundred billion. Even our Imperial Group can’t aplish what she, a mere third-tier wealthy person, can!” Grandy Anderson yelled out in frustration.


    n Austin, standing by the side, also frowned with deep concern and said to Sherry Jones, “Sherry Jones, there should be limits to everything! Now that you’ve sessfully verified your capital, why lie like this? What is your purpose? Don’t think that just because you casually mention it, we’ll believe what you say! One hundred billion dors, do you think it’s like buying groceries at a local market? Is this a joke?”


    Even if David Herb had tried to raise one hundred billion, it would’ve taken him ten days or so.


    Who in the vast Sayon could pull out that much money in such a go?


    Beckett had just finished speaking and Sherry Jones had just collected the money. The timing didn’t even span for a second. Who were they fooling?


    n Austin and Grandy Anderson, with their doubtful looks, seemed to want to take this opportunity to add insult to injury.


    But at that moment, a call came in on Sherry Jones’ phone.


    Sherry Jones was taken aback, intending to hang up first. But Beckett, his headset filled with White Mitchell’s voice, said, “Let Sherry take the call. Put it on speaker.”


    Hearing this, Beckett immediately stepped forward, asked Sherry Jones to answer the phone, and directly turned on the speaker.


    As soon as the call connected, a respectfully submissive voice could be heard, seemingly carrying an undertone of ingratiation.


    Everyone only reacted when the caller introduced himself. This was a call made by the president of Sayon Bank himself.


    The people in the hall had more or less dealt with Sayon Bank before, and they could recognize the voice of the president.


    But that wasn’t what shocked them the most.


    What was more incredible was the audacity of the president of Sayon Bank, who personally verified the authenticity of the one hundred billion dors and even proposed to open a ck Diamond VIP ount for Sherry Jones.


    Having a ck Diamond level ount – across Sayon, only a few people could enjoy such an honour.


    But now, Sherry Jones, who they had looked down upon, had done it, and this was a call from the president of Sayon Bank himself.


    Gulp, gulp, gulp…


    Those who had finally reacted started swallowingpulsively, their gazes toward Sherry Jones filled with apprehension.


    At the very moment, n Austin and Grandy Anderson were feeling indescribably ufortable, feeling as if they had eaten shit, they tried to vomit but couldn’t.


    One hundred billion, Sherry Jones actually had one hundred billion. With this, their own fifty billion waspletely overshadowed.


    n Austin and Grandy Anderson were angry, almost to the point of bursting with rage because of Sherry Jones.


    The wealthy Imperial Group waspletely defeated, let alone the others. The funds they had couldn’tpete with Sherry Jones at all.


    Thinking of this, everyone looked at each other nervously.


    Just when everything was tense, Messiah Anderson, the chairman of the Zhang Group, who had not spoken, walked up to n Austin with a frown.


    “Mr. Austin, I’ve decided to join forces with you!” Messiah Anderson stated bluntly.


    Obviously, Messiah Anderson saw that he couldn’tpete with Sherry Jones, so he chose to team up with n Austin, joining his side.


    As to why he won’t team up with Sherry Jones, it was because of White Mitchell of course. Previously, White Mitchell made a fool of himself, making him lose face in front of everyone in Sayon. He wanted nothing more than to skin White Mitchell alive, so how could he possibly align with him?


    Join forces?


    n Austin hesitated, then his eyes shed as if he’d thought of something, his gloomy face instantly brightened, reced by a confident look.


    Getting the Nezzi New City project required money, materials, teams, and more – nothing could be missing.


    Thankfully, Messiah Anderson controlled over eighty percent of Sayon’s material resources. If used properly, even with all her money, Sherry Jones wouldn’t be able to purchase any materials.


    Without any materials, no matter how much money Sherry Jones has, she wouldn’t be able topete with him.


    Thinking of this, a mocking smile curled up n Austin’s lips. He said yfully to Sherry Jones, “Did you really think that just because you have funds, you’re amazing? Do you think you’ve already won? If you can’t buy materials, the hundred billion dors in your hand is just worthless paper! Topete with me, Sherry Jones, you’re a greenhorn. If I could crush White Mitchell under my foot in the past, I can also crush you under my foot now! Hahahahaha…”


    Seeing the situation, Messiah Anderson also took this opportunity to kick Sherry Jones while she was down. “Mr. Austin is right. Given my good rtionship with Cooper, the big shot of the building materials industry, it will be as easy as ABC to block Jones Group’s building materials!


    As luck would have it, Cooper is in Sayon for the time being, so you better be ready. I’m going to pay him a visit tomorrow and immediately restrict your Jones Group from acquiring any building materials.


    Without any materials, we’ll see just how arrogant you can get!”


    Hearing this, Sherry Jones’s expression became stern once again. Without any building materials, even if she got the Nezzi New City project, it would be useless. It could even implicate White Mitchell.


    She had to find a way to resolve the current crisis and couldn’t allow n Austin’s n to seed!


    A firm determination filled Sherry Jones’s eyes, but when n Austin and the others saw it, they merely sneered. After bidding Mr. Herb goodbye, they sauntered off the scene.


    Just when n Austin was nning to use Cooper, the materials tycoon, to suppress Sherry Jones, the next morning, White Mitchell received a call from Kylin.


    When he answered the phone, White Mitchell was taken aback, “Cooper wants to meet me?”
