Chapter 134 Please Kneel Down
Chapter 134 Please Kneel Down
Since the fact that Jack had failed to set up Heidy, the surviving condition of JA Group had been getting more and more difficult. While Jacob was very busy, bad news came one after another.
At the same time, Jacob was pacing restlessly back and forth in his room of the JA Group. According to the information he had just received, someone stole some business matters that were originally belonged to his group suddenly. The business deal was made in such a short time and caught Jacob off guard.
What was worse, some internal secret files had been leaked, while some of the secrets had been known by someone and gone viral. Therefore, many companies dared not to cooperate with Jacob's company.
When Allen came to the office, Jacob hurried forward and asked, "How is the thing going?"
"Boss, something happened in the construction site. We were found to have stolen the construction materials. Just now, the construction department has sealed off the construction site, and both the designers and the workers have been arrested," Allen lowered his head and said.
His words struck a chord in Jacob's heart. Her eyes widened with shock. He suddenly lost all his strength, as if being hit hard. "How could this happen... That's crazy! Our company has invested 200 million in this construction site. Now it's blocked. I don't have any hope."
"Boss, this is not the worst situation. Our company has a capital problem. Now he could only transfer three million working capital, the bank has just come to urge us to give back the money. Besides, you has already owed a million dollar, and the creditor asked you to give back the money too. In addition, we need to pay the ten million dollars for the deal we made two months ago. If we can't give the money to the other party in time, our company has to pay three times the liquidated damages..."
Allen didn't stop. Jacob felt a headache from his words. JA Group had owed a lot of money and if it failed to weather the crisis, Then JA Group would be over.
Clenching his fists tightly, Jacob kicked the table in front of him. "Damn it! I was so powerful back then, but I didn't expect that it was all about money," he screamed.
Hearing his words, Allen reminded him, "Boss, complaining about it couldn't help us. The most important thing is to find a solution. If we can't pay off the debt in this week, the bank might take the JA Group away, let alone reputation being destroyed."
Jacob didn't respond. After a short silence, he said quickly, "I'm going to ask someone for help. Over the years, I have a wide range of business connections, so I don't believe I have no way out." Thinking of this, Jacob picked up his mobile phone and directly walked outside.
However, when Jacob was ready to go out with confidence to raise money, he failed. Some of his so- called friends wouldn't even lend him ten thousand dollars. He had worked hard for the whole day, but he still couldn't find anyone to help him.
"Those bastards!" Jacob said angrily.
After being furious, Jacob stood arms akimbo and stared straight ahead. Jacob knew clearly that the situation was quite dangerous. If the JA Group went like this, he would definitely destroy his company. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Looking ahead, Jacob asked in a panic, "Who else can help me?"
Allen looked at him and suddenly remembered something. He said, "Boss, you can go to the CEO of the J.Y Group to talk about Mr. Hearst. Anyway, you and him are relatives. If you asked him for help, he will help you ."
Before he finished speaking, Jacob said angrily, "What? You want me to ask for Hearst? If it weren't for Hearst and Heidy, I wouldn't have ended up like this. All my misfortune is due to that shameless couple."
Looking at him, Allen said softly, "But now, no one can save our company except them. Or do you think it better to ask Miss Heidy for help?"
Jacob said nothing but kept a straight face. He knew it clearly that it was impossible to ask Heidy for help. However, in such cases, Hearst and Heidy were married, how could Hearst help him. Struggling in his heart, Jacob finally decided, "Go to the J.Y Group." He didn't want to give up even if there was only one hope.
Soon he arrived at the J.Y Group. He had been waiting in the reception room for a long time, but Hearst didn't show up. One hour had passed and two hours had passed. They still couldn't find a chance to meet Hearst.
At the sight of assistant Liu, Jacob scolded, "Why hasn't Hearst come yet? Did you do it on purpose?"
Assistant Liu looked at him calmly and said politely and coldly, "Our president is having a meeting. If you can't wait, you can leave. This way please."
"I'm Hearst's brother-in-law. What kind of important meeting is it?" said Jacob coldly.
Hands folded before him, assistant Liu smiled and said, "In the eyes of our president, a meeting is more important. Mr. Jacob, if you don't want to wait anymore, you can go home. Our CEO's time is too precious to be wasted by anyone."
Noticing that assistant Liu totally ignored him, Jacob's face turned livid with anger. At the very beginning, no one dared to talk to him like that. But now, even a mere assistant could look down on
him. The more he thought about it, the more angry he was. He repressed his anger, and continued to wait.
Another hour passed. Hearst asked calmly, "Is he still waiting?"
"Yes, sir," Assistant Liu replied with respect.
With a sneer, Hearst said, "It seems that he's really driven into a corner. Let him in." Assistant Liu took the hint and pushed the door open. In a short while, Jacob came into his sight.
When Jacob arrived at the table, he greeted warmly, "Hello, Hearst."
Hearing this, Hearst didn't look up. He said expressionlessly, "Mr. Jacob, I'm not so familiar with you. This is the company, please call me Mr. Heidy."
Hearing this, Jacob's eyebrows flickered with anger. At the thought that only Hearst could help him today, he could only put a restraint on his anger and said patiently, "Mr. Heidy, I come here today to ask you for help."
Hearst raised his head and said to him coldly, "Help? Mr. Jacob, I don't like helping others."
Hearst refused straightforwardly, which made Jacob nervous. Then he said in a low voice, "Mr. Hearst, I have a financial problem now. Can you help me get through this for the sake of your brother-in-law?"
Hearing that, Hearst smiled, "I'm the only child of my mother. I didn't have a sister. I've heard about the business of the JA Group. You must have asked a lot of people for help, but no one is willing to help you. Even if I want to lend you some money, I could never know when you can pay me back."
Hearing what he said, Jacob felt a little embarrassed. He lowered his head and said, "I know. I can guarantee you that I will pay the money back in time after the company goes through the crisis. No one want to help me now, or I won't come here to beg you."
Hearst crossed his arms over his chest and looked at him coldly, "Beg me? It turned out that Mr. Jacob asked for help in this way. Well, I have known that. I never helped others, unless you show your sincerity in asking me for help. But I didn't see it on you. Assistant Liu, see him out."
Assistant Liu stepped forward and said with a smile, "Mr. Jacob, this way please."
Jacob knew clearly that once he left here, the company would be doomed. Thinking of this, Jacob quickly asked, "What do you want me to do to help me?"
Leaning against his chair, Hearst said calmly, "Whether it's business cooperation or anything else, I value the other party's sincerity of wanting to cooperate with me and want my help."
Looking at his expression, Jacob swallowed hard. Looking into his cold eyes, Jacob struggled for a long time in his heart. Suddenly, Jacob got down on his knees. Kneeling on the ground, with his hands on the ground, Jacob said seriously, "Mr. Hearst, I beg you to help me get through the hardship for the sake of your relatives. I will remember your kindness."
Seeing him kneeling down, there was still no change in Hearst's facial expression. "Mr. Jacob, why did you do that? So many bosses of the companies I have bought kneel down in front of me. If I were soft hearted, the J.Y Group wouldn't have been so strong and powerful."
Jacob gave up his dignity and knelt down, but he never thought that Hearst would refuse to help. Thinking of this, a trace of hatred appeared in Jacob's eyes. "Are you really unwilling to help me? Your father and I are in business, and if my company is damaged, your father's business will also be affected."
Hearst put on a scornful smile and said, "His business has nothing to do with me. Mr. Jacob, you should beg your wife and brother-in-law, but not me. I'm not getting along well with them."
Of course, Jacob was clear about this. Otherwise, Hearst would not turn against them. He had thought about asking Abby and Nick for help, but Nick refused to help when he knew that his company was in trouble.
Seeing that he was not willing to help, Jacob stood up, and his face was full of anger. "Since you are not willing to help, I will not continue to ask you." Then he turned around.
When he was about to leave, Hearst said slowly, "I can give you a suggestion. Maybe it can help you get out of the current situation."
Seeing a glimmer of hope, Jacob asked happily, "What is it?"
Then, Hearst squinted and said, "I'm curious. Who is more important to you, your wife or your business? I remember that when one was in despair, he would use his wife to seek benefit for himself. Abby, nice looking."
Hearing this, Jacob was stunned for a few seconds and then realized. "You mean, you want me to use Lora..."
There was no answer. Hearst just smiled and said, "Whatever you want to do, it's your business. The specific choice is in your heart, which is more important."
