Chapter 459: Chapter 459 Card Number_1

“Ten billion is indeed a bit much. How about this, I’ll give you five billion, and you give me the video. How does that sound?”

Jennifer Lopez would rather spend the five billion then arrange to have Julius Reed quietly taken care of, and get all the money back.

It was just a round trip in Julius Reed’s hands.

“I’ve got a call coming in, hold on a second.”

After glancing at his phone, Julius Reed turned and walked towards the stairs to answer the call.

“Hello, how are things going with that matter? Right now, I also have someone… Yes! Yes! Yes! I am a businessman, I only choose the side that benefits me. What? You’re offering twenty billion?”

Julius Reed feigned surprise, then tapped his forehead as if troubled, “You’re making this difficult for me! I’m in the middle of negotiation here, couldn’t you at least wait until I’m done? How about this, I’ll get back to you after I’m finished with my current business. But I can assure you of one thing, I will definitely sell to the highest bidder!”

These words from Julius Reed immediately made Jennifer Lopez frown.

She felt Julius Reed was putting on an act.

But it didn’t sound like it!

The only person within the Lopez Family with substantial financial strength and grievances against her was her eldest brother, Jeffrey Lopez.

Besides him, no one could easily offer up over twenty billion.

Jeffrey Lopez’s son was also the heir to the future Family Head of the Lopez Family, deeply favored by the old man.

Which is why the siblings were like fire and water, each thinking of ways to sabotage the other every day.

Jennifer Lopez had planted quite a few informants around Jeffrey Lopez’s son, constantly monitoring Justin Lopez’s every move, ready to whisper in the Old Man’s ear given even a slight indiscretion.

Similarly, Jeffrey Lopez had always been keeping tabs on Zane Percival, determined to keep this outsider crushed under his thumb in Gonzalez City, making sure he couldn’t set a foot into the capital, nor take a step into the Lopez Family!

For Jeffrey Lopez, this was the perfect opportunity.

No matter how much money it cost, it was worth it!

Compared to previous lifestyle issues, losing dignity was fatal!

Lopez family members would never allow a person, beaten to the point of losing teeth, to step through the Lopez Family’s doors!

A prestigious family requires dignity, requires face!

Thinking this, Jennifer Lopez pretended to go to the restroom but actually dialed her eldest brother’s number.

Even though in her heart, she believed Julius Reed was just acting, trying to swindle some money.

But there was that saying, Jennifer Lopez could not afford to lose!

Even a one in ten thousand chance of failure was too much for her to bear!

To get to where she was today, to have Zane Percival come and go in the capital, and even make quite a few friends, Jennifer Lopez had already given her all.

“Hello, the number you’ve dialed is currently busy!”

When she heard the announcer’s voice, Jennifer Lopez was struck as if by lightning!

She stood in the bathroom, shocked for several seconds before recovering.

It had to be fake!

It was just a coincidence!

Jennifer Lopez comforted herself.

How could Julius Reed have a way to contact Jeffrey Lopez?

And how could things align so coincidentally?

Such a coincidence that as she came to buy, Jeffrey Lopez had already been negotiating the price over the phone in advance?

It’s a fake!

It has to be a coincidence!

Jennifer Lopez took a deep breath, quietly waiting for Julius Reed to finish his phone call outside.

In the meantime, she called her eldest brother several times, but every time the same message played, indicating the line was busy.

Each message from the announcer felt like torture to Jennifer Lopez!

Finally, Julius Reed finished the call outside and turned around to ask: “Where’s Miss Lopez?”

“In the bathroom!”

Jordan Martin said with a grave voice.

Hearing the conversation outside, Jennifer Lopez dialed her eldest brother’s phone again!

In her heart, she prayed. Just one more time of the busy signal, and she could go out and expose Julius Reed’s scam!

But the call was picked up almost instantly.

“What is it?”

Jeffrey Lopez asked coldly.

The two were already at odds, there was no need to pretend any longer to have a deep sibling bond.

Or rather, they had completely torn off their masks.

“It’s nothing, I dialed the wrong number, I thought it was the old man’s cell phone,”

Jennifer Lopez said, extremely embarrassed.

On a regular day, if Jeffrey Lopez adopted this attitude, Jennifer would have immediately snapped back!

But today, she was feeling incredibly guilty!

“Crazy!”

After cursing, Jeffrey Lopez hung up the phone immediately.

He had received a request for a project collaboration with Willson Group just half an hour earlier.

Even though he was in the capital, the magnates were all quite clear about Willson Group.

No one knew just how deep the Group’s foundations were, but any enterprise that tried to challenge it was usually forced to shut down within half a month.

Jeffrey Lopez’s first thought was that if Jennifer knew about this, she would definitely try to claim the credit for herself!

Now that she wasn’t in the capital, this was Jeffrey’s best chance!

Cooperating with Willson Group, and then conveniently pushing Justin Lopez forward, would smoothly lead to inheriting the Lopez family assets.

But Jennifer would not ask so much!

Julius Reed was aware of this, which is why he acquired Jeffrey’s cell phone number through Wolf Cavalry. While he received a call, Jeffrey also got a call.

There was no sound coming from Julius’s receiver, however, the call that Jeffrey received was from Willson Group.

Even though the targets were different, the coincidence at the same time was enough to make Jennifer crumble!

“Sorry, I was feeling a bit unwell just now,”

Jennifer washed her hands and walked out of the bathroom.

She looked at Julius and asked, “Who called just now?”

“A friend! He deals in antiques.”

Julius’s eyes looked hazy as he said this, clearly trying to avoid something, or rather, lying.

This broke through Jennifer’s last line of psychological defense!

If Julius had said that the call was from Jeffrey, she would have been skeptical!

But now, his lying demeanor made Jennifer realize that her older brother was indeed negotiating with Julius!

“How much do they want, and are you satisfied?”

She asked again.

This time her tone was much softer than before.

Not only was her voice less dominant, but her face also showed more gravity.

“Let’s do this, three billion, I’ll give you the video now!”

Julius took a USB drive out of his pocket and placed it lightly on the table: “I’ve already deleted the local files, this is the cloud account and password. After you pay me, it’s yours. I can assure you that I won’t keep a copy, nor will I replicate it!”

“Okay! I believe you!”

Jennifer clenched her teeth as she spoke.

She thought that the man in front of her wouldn’t dare to lie.

Defrauding her of three billion, he surely knew what the consequences would be.

After all, she was Jennifer Lopez!

“When will the money be transferred?”

Julius left a series of card numbers.

It was the number of the membership card that Itai Huntington used at the shooting range.

Julius, with his photographic memory, had long memorized that card number.

Jennifer’s swift action in reaching Gonzalez City surely had Itai’s meddling involved.

This woman, wanted to test just how strong he was!

If that was the case.

Julius could only respond in kind. He would transfer this hot three billion directly into Itai’s account and then watch as two of the most notorious women fought against each other.
