Chapter 1103: Chapter 1103: Being Severely Humiliated! Chapter 1103: Chapter 1103: Being Severely Humiliated! âEnough.â The burly man on the sofa stood up and walked over to Jacob Clark. He stretched out his hand and casually patted Jacobâs cheek, chuckling mockingly, âPresident Clark is quite a figure, arenât you? The brothers here are well aware of that. If your company were still running, I would believe your words, President Clark. But now, Iâm afraid even the beggars on the streets have more money than you do. Why should I believe youâd repay the debt when you say you will?â
âMillions, not just a few hundred dollars. If President Clark runs away, what are the brothers going to take to cover for you?â
Juliet Jordan, who had been coldly watching Jacob be insulted, suddenly frowned and asked sternly, âMillions? What millions?â
Didnât he just mortgage the familyâs house, cars, and stocks?
At most, they would just take those things away. Why would he owe millions?
Jacobâs face, struck, burned painfully. Accustomed to luxury, his face turned a mix of pale and flushed with extreme anger and shame, and he almost lost control of himself as the muscles on his temples bulged and he clenched his fists.
But seeing the other five tattooed burly men sitting on the sofa motionless, he begrudgingly swallowed his anger!
The same man, expecting a bit of manly assertiveness from Jacob but seeing none, looked at him with even greater mockery. He withdrew his hand and answered Julietâs question with nonchalance, âMadam President Clark is joking with me, or perhaps President Clark hasnât informed you? He didnât just mortgage the house, car, and stocks with us; he also borrowed a substantial amount of money.â
He turned back, glanced at Jacob with a displeased face, and said, âOh, right, President Clark, I heard you didnât just borrow money from us. You also borrowed a significant sum from Brother Paul, didnât you?â
Juliet knew very well who Brother Paul was!
The Clark Family was in the real estate business, which inevitably involved dealings with some shady powers over property issues. This Brother Paul was a well-known loan shark in Linton City.
He specialized in the business of lending money and collecting debts.
With many little brothers at his disposal, his methods of raising funds were endless.
Jacob had collaborated with Brother Paul several times before, leaving his competitors destitute and ruined. There was even an incident she remembered that resulted in a fatality, where a competitorâs bossâs wife was driven to suicide by jumping off a building.
She had never imagined that one day, she would fall from creditor to a debtor herself!
With extreme unease, Juliet widened her eyes and glared at the man beside her, overwhelmed with indignation, âHave you lost your mind! Knowing full well what kind of person Brother Paul is, you still borrowed from him! Jacob Clark! What else have you been hiding from me!â
Jacob Clark remained silent.
He had previously thought that certain stock would surely increase tenfold, and in order to earn more money to teach his disobedient daughter a lesson, he had let greed take over momentarily.
He never imagined that a momentary lapse of greed would lead to such severe consequences.
The man with sunglasses continued to stir the pot from the sidelines with snide remarks, âYeah, Iâm curious too about what President Clark was thinking. Borrowing money from our boss is one thing; our boss is a good man and wonât do anything to President Clark, just send a few brothers to âpersuadeâ President Clark to repay the loan. But Brother Paul isnât as gentle as our boss; he still doesnât know about President Clarkâs stock losses. Once he finds out, heâll probably come looking for President Clark right away. What do you plan to say to Brother Paul then? Will you speak frankly to him, like youâve been with the brothers here, promising youâll definitely repay?â
