Victory in Life
Chapter 615
"You came to Hanks' residence to collect our debts? Since when does my family owe you?"
"Will it hurt for you to shut up?!" Sirius turned to shout at Neville.
After being yelled at, Neville looked at his father who had a sad expression on his face and looked like he was going to eat himself alive. Frightened, Neville spoke in a quivering voice, "I'm your son, Father. Jasper is an outsider who came to bully us in our house, what's wrong with me defending our family?"
At that moment, the only old man in the room realized something was wrong with Sirius and asked with a frown, "What's wrong, Sirius?"
Sirius took a deep breath and looked at the old man. "This is a breach of contract notice, Uncle Silas."
Then, Sirius turned around to look at Jasper coldly. "What trick do you have, huh?"
Jasper replied calmly, "You're not too bad either."
"I wonder how you managed to get so many sales business contracts in just two days. How did you get them to agree to transfer contract compensation rights to you?" Sirius asked coldly.
Just then, the expressions of all the members of the Hanks family changed.
The Hanks family is currently in a major crisis as their main pillar of income, electronic orders, has been stolen from them. The sales business that they had signed the contract was also rife every day.
As members of the Hanks family, they were well aware that this would be the end of the Hanks family if they did not dare to go through it.
However, Jasper now carried the contract to collect their debts.
Everyone, including Neville, was now staring hatefully at Jasper. They wanted nothing but to tear Jasper apart.
"The new Faith province developed its electronics market after signing a contract with the Hanks family for a year's worth of goods. The contracts totaled 1.5 million, with an upfront payment of 800,000. When either party breaches the contract, they are required to recoup the loss by doubling the contract amount. So, I decided to buy that contract with 1.3 million Somer Dollars."
"And the same is followed by the other sales business you signed. There is no reason for them not to accept my offer, especially when they have to bear the cost themselves to sue you. There's no point in dragging the debt forever, right?"
Sirius paled hearing Jasper's words.
Jasper shrugged and replied calmly, Even if you go bankrupt, I believe the Hanks family property is still valuable. I just have to treat it as taking the rest and help you pay off your debt at a discount. Even if you don't want to, I'm sure the court will agree."
"Plus, to be honest, I can afford to spend a little bit of that cash."
Sirius glared at Jasper threateningly and was completely enraged.
But no matter how angry he was, the situation gave him no other choice but to give up.
"Is there really no way we can negotiate this, Jasper?"
Hearing him, Neville and his brother Dave looked at Sirius in disbelief. They did not understand why their father had given up on Jasper.
"Negotiation? My only advice is that you pay your debts as soon as possible. That's 2.7 billion. Ordinary people can live their whole lives on one exciting day only" Jasper said calmly.
"What's? 2.7 Billion?!" Neville shrieks.
Dave's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Dad, he's obviously just blackmailing us here! We can't make a huge amount of money in such a short amount of time even if we liquidate all of our properties!" Neville explained to Sirius.
Neville was well aware of the current situation of the Hanks family. They had lost a lot of money since the Southface River Project, and the family's wealth had greatly shrunk.
Over the past few days, they had made loss after loss from taking on an unfavorable deal they had only to attack Jasper and Dawson. Not to mention Sylva had also taken a certain amount of family wealth and disappeared!
"What if our family has a lot of assets? They are all side businesses and only a small number of projects are truly profitable! There's no way we can get 2.7 billion in such a short time to repay our debt!"
"Then it's liquid!"
Jasper spoke nonchalantly, "The Hanks family has quite a lot of assets. Plus, with all the money every family member has, I think it's enough to pay your debts. Even if it's not enough, we can take him to court. Worst-case scenario? You're on the blacklist. But the Hanks family is so tough that this should be your least problem, right?"
