Chapter 68
The discussions around grew louder but Clint and Jovan were already completely deaf to the astonishment of the crowd!
From the initial shock, anger, to later numbness, they didn't know how to react anymore!
It was only when an entire basketball-sized piece of jade appeared that Jovan sat down on the ground, defeated and shocked.
"Alex,how did you do it?”
Hannah stared at Ethan in disbelief.
"If I say it's pure luck, would you believe me?” Ethan calmly asked in return.
For a moment, everyone looked at Ethan as if he were a monster!
"He actually says it's luck? Who would believe him?”
"I do. He's just incredibly lucky!"
"You there, can you possibly not be so careless with this emerald?"
"Can I buy it? I'll offer one billion!"
"You're being too stingy; can you really say no to a billion?I'll offer three billion!"
"I'll offer five billion... I can transfer the money or write you a check right this instant!"
The scene instantly turned chaotic, with numerous wealthy jewelers crowding around Ethan, unable to get a word in edgewise!
Hannah couldn't help but feel bitter. Although in her heart she felt envious and hoped that Ethan would sell her the jade, her company was only worth a few million dollars. What right did she have to compote with these big companies when it came to price?
Even if Ethan was willing to sell it to her, she wouldn't be able to take out that much money!
However, Ethan's next words left everyone stunned!
"I don't intend to sell this jade to anyone! Miss Collins, I'll give this jacle to you. You can figure out what to do with it!"
His words were like a bolt of lightning, shocking everyone to the core!
He was giving this enormous jade, worth at least five billion,directly to another woman?!
Was this guy out of his mind?
"But... I don't have that much money!"
Hannah was also taken aback by this sudden 'surprise' from Ethan!
“I don't need your money. Just give me some of your company's shares, and this jade will be my investment!"
Ethan didn't mind helping this woman. After all, a few billion was just a number to him, and it wouldn't make a significant difference.
“But... My company is only..."
Hannah couldn't believe it. Even if she gave her company to Ethan,she still wwouldn't be able to buy this jade. However, Ethan interrupted her directly.
"There's no need to say more. I know you need it! Plus, I don't think
this investment will necessarily incur losses."
Ethan's tone was unquestionable, making Hannah's heart tremble!
In that instant, Hannah had an urge to burst into tears. Her eyes turned red!
"Oh, and I have one more condition!"
He then glanced at Clint not far away,pointing at him and saying,“Fire this guy. I don't want to see him in the company anymore!"
Hannah was taken aback once again, but she didn't hesitate to nod and agree,“Alright, even if you didn't mention it, I was already planning to do so."
Clint immediately jumped up, pointing at Hannah and cursing loudly,"You want to fire me, Hannah? Have you forgotten who helped you when your company was in its most difficult phase? Are you really repaying kindness with enmity?"
“This is your own doing, and besides, Alex is now the company's biggest shareholder. He has the rights to fire you. Blame yourself for thinking too highly of yourself!"
Hannah responded coldly, unperturbed.
"You're wrong. His problem is not arrogance, but greed! Let someone thoroughly investigate the company's accounts!"
Ethan subtly reminded Hannah with his words.
Upon hearing this, Clint's complexion immediately changed.
"You two... Just you wait and see!"
"This isn't over! Hannah, don't think that kicking me away with one foot is going to settle anything. I'll make sure you pay the price!"
With these harsh words, he turned around and ran!
Hannah could see a lot of information from this and was even more shocked by Ethan's unfathomable nature.
Now. Jovan was alone. He glanced at Ethan, intending to secretly leave with Clint's help.
However,Ethan saw through Jovan's plan a long time ago.
"Mr. Foster, don't be in such a hurry to leave. You haven't kept you end of the bet, no? So many people are watching. It's a total of ten million dollars. After you transfer the money, feel free to go wherever you want! I won't stop you!"
