Chapter 244: Things Falling Apart
"Hey Matthew, make sure that the company goes down. Use the shortest time possible to make sure that that company goes bankrupt."
Those words resounded heavily in Wilfred's ears. At the same time, a bad feeling suddenly arose in his heart. He felt that there was something that was going terribly wrong at this moment, especially the time that Jaden said those words.
As for his wife, she did not even care about what Jaden had said. Instead, the contempt on her face was still the same, as she gazed at Jaden.
Wilfred on the other hand had been saved numerous times by this feeling that he was getting. Every time that he got this feeling, he would immediately change the decision that he had previously made, and the feeling would go away.
Wilfred could not help but think, trying to remember if there was any decision that he had made that might lead to the jeopardy of his company. But no matter how hard he thought about it, everything that had to be dealt with, had been dealt with to the smallest detail. Experience new tales on мѵʟ
And now, the only thing that could be giving him that feeling was Jaden. Could it be that it was true, what Charles had told him before? Previously, Charles had told him that Jaden was living inside a villa within this community.
And it was not only that, it was that Jaden was actually the owner of the Villa. That was according to the information that Charles had gotten when he went to the management building, to ask.
Of course, he did not get clear information about it, but still, everything pointed towards the fact that Jaden actually owned a villa here.
Initially, Wilfred thought that this was just his son's overthinking. According to him, it was impossible for Jaden to be able to own a villa within this community. So, he dismissed this matter.
But at this moment, with this feeling in his heart, he suddenly felt that there was a great possibility that Jaden actually owned a villa in this community. And if that was the case, it implied her that he definitely had the capability to attack them.
Jaden owned a villa within the top 20. And the villa that they were currently in was only number 26. And more than that, he was not even the one who had bought it.
While Wilfred was still contemplating, his wife suddenly spoke up. "You are so lucky that my husband is willing to let you go. I will allow you to leave now, but I will definitely not forgive you for what you did today. You overestimated your capabilities, and I will make sure that you pay for that."
Jaden did not speak after ending the call. Instead, he calmly waited. He had already talked to Matthew, and it was through Matthew that he had investigated about the company that his uncle owned.
His uncle owned a company that dealt with recycling plastic materials. And other than that, they made several plastic products, that were circulating within the market in the city.
Even though the company was worth more than $17 million, it was not enough to be able to shake a big company like Nightstar Security company. Even though it was just a security company, it was a company whose net worth was currently over 500 million dollars.
So, dealing with a company that was only worth less than $20 million, it was not going to be a problem at all. Jaden had already told Matthew about his intention of destroying that company, and so, Matthew had been making preparations for this action for quite a while now.
About 2 minutes later, Wilfred's phone suddenly rang. Wilfred's wife that was just about to speak was forced to stop, as she looked at her husband. She was wondering if it was an important call involving the company.
So, she decided to wait until Wilfred had dealt with the matter related to the call first, before she could speak. While she was waiting, Wilfred took out his phone, and looked at the caller.
The one that was making the call was none other than his assistant. Wilfred did not trust that many people, and for that reason, he was managing his own company.
In order to lessen the burden on himself, he looked for other people that he could trust, and assigned several roles to them. Of course, all of them were under his control, making sure that nothing would go wrong with the company.
This assistant that was calling was the person with the second highest command within the company. Wilfred felt his heart thump. He was getting a bad feeling about this.
Still, after a moment of hesitation, he received the call. The moment that he did so, his assistant's voice came from the other end.
"Mr. Wilfred, things are going wrong! The entire company is collapsing! You have to do something about it! If you don't, we are going to go bankrupt in just a matter of less than 1 hour!" The assistant was anxious as he said those words.
Wilfred was momentarily rendered speechless. He was not sure on how to react on this matter. At the same time, he was wondering if he had heard it wrong. But, that assistant of his had said many things, and they were all related.
"Are you there? You have to do something right now! The company is collapsing!" As if the assistant was afraid that Wilfred had not heard what he had said, he repeated again.
It was only at this moment that Wilfred suddenly came back to his senses. While anxiously looking at Jaden, he asked, "Explain to me clearly what is happening. I want detailed information of the current situation of the company. You better not be messing with me."
"Yes sir. The companies that we were cooperating with have suddenly decided to quit the cooperation. The ones that were in charge of supplying materials to us have also quit the cooperation, together with those that we were using to make the sales.
And more than that, somehow, a few of the things that we had hidden under the carpet were revealed. The police has already began investigating our company, and several of the employees that we dismissed a few years ago came back, claiming that they were mistreated within the company.
Basically, everything is in a mess. Nothing is going right. From this, the losses that the company is going to suffer in just a short while is going to be immense!" The assistant explained anxiously.
At this moment, Wilfred's eyes suddenly turned lifeless. He had clearly heard when Jaden made the call, and said that a company should be made bankrupt within the shortest time possible.
From Jaden's voice and attitude, it was clear that he was talking to his subordinate. And, in a matter of less than 5 minutes, bad news had suddenly struck his company, with his company that was enjoying success just a little while ago, experiencing a moment of collapse.
If everything that his assistant had told him was actually true, then it was clear that the company was going to go bankrupt within a short time.
A few seconds later, just after the assistant had called out to him, Wilfred suddenly reacted. "Try to ask for loans, and stabilize the situation first. The most important thing is to make sure that everything remains as it is, and it doesn't get worse than it already is."
"I have already tried that. But all the banks and other financial institutions are all denying us the loans. They are claiming that the current situation of the company is bad, and the credit worthiness of the company is extremely low, and they cannot risk giving us a loan.
Tah!
The most recent phone in the market that he had just purchased suddenly dropped from Wilfred's hands. It fell on the ground, but Wilfred did not care about it.
Instead, he gazed at Jaden with horror in his eyes. He could not believe it! Everything had just fallen apart in just a matter of a few minutes, after Jaden had said those words.
Just what kind of ability did Jaden have? Could it be that he was messing with him, and it was just coincidental that the company was facing such a situation? But what was the probability of such a coincidence happening?
Jaden to own a villa, to Jaden making a call, to have a company go bankrupt, and now, his company suddenly going bankrupt, when he was celebrating with his friends for the success that the company had experienced, just a few minutes ago before he came over.
No matter how stupid he was, Wilfred suddenly understood that everything was definitely related to Jaden. It was Jaden that had made his company collapse, when he was already dreaming about the future, where his company was going to dominate the market.
Wilfred's wife on the other hand could not help but be dumbfounded the moment that she saw her husband reacting like that. What was going on? Was there something wrong with the company?
"Husband, is there something wrong? Hurry up and deal with the matters related to the company as soon as possible, so that we can take care of this bast-" The lady was speaking while pointing her index finger at Jaden.
Pah!
But she was suddenly silenced by the heavy slap that landed on her cheek, sending her stumbling to the ground. Immediately after, a red palm print could be seen on her cheek as she looked at the perpetrator with horror in her eyes.
