Sheldon quickly defended himself, saying, “I'm not a coward, but the fact is that Intercontinental Group and
Redwood Capital are really in different leagues! No one can perform such a miracle...”
“Oh really? Tell me, in what way is Intercontinental Group inferior to Redwood Capital?” Jared asked.
“For a start, Redwood Capital is worth at least two hundred billion...” Sheldon gave a small wry smile.
“How do you know the fund I'm going to send you is less than two hundred billion?”
Sheldon was choked with emotions.
“W-What did y-you just say, Mr. Jared? D-Did I hear you wrongly?”
“You heard me right. I'm going to transfer three hundred billion to you this time.”
Three hundred billion!
Sheldon's eyes popped wide open, and his hands trembled involuntarily.
Although he heard Jared loud and clear, he still couldn't believe his ears and that he was going to get three hundred

Only the Mitxel family can mobilize such a huge amount of money in such a short time! But they should be pushing
themselves to the limit as well... What are they up to? Jared pushed me to empty Intercontinental Group's coffer,
but he's also going to risk everything in his family to go against Linton Group! What grudges does he have against
Linton Group?
Sheldon was utterly confused and dumbfounded.
“Sheldon, I'm giving you three hundred billion. You know the dire consequence that will await you if you still fail to
bring down Linton Group, right?” Jared was getting impatient.
Sheldon immediately assured him, “Thank you for placing your faith in me, Mr. Jared! I will not disappoint you! If I
fail to crush Linton Group this time, then you can do whatever you want to me!”
“Great! I look forward to hearing good news from you!” Jared replied, then hung up.
Sheldon clenched his fist excitedly and mumbled to himself, “You really surprised me, Zeke! I never thought you
would be capable of pulling off that feat of acquiring Redwood Capital! Too bad for you, but I have three hundred
billion from the Mitxel family, so I'm better off than Redwood Capital! Just wait and see who gets the last laugh!”
It took him quite a while to calm down, and when he finally did, he picked up his phone and made a call.
“Come to my office, Jocelyn.” He called for his secretary.
In a flash, a pretty lady walked in.
Sheldon's previous secretary had tendered her resignation and left the company after Intercontinental Group ran
into problems.
Jocelyn Jacobson was a fresh graduate he had just hired to replace his ex-secretary. She was a beautiful and sweet
girl. Most important of all, she was innocent and kind. Sheldon was confident he could easily win over the gullible
girl and make her his lover within a couple of days.
As Jocelyn walked in, Sheldon couldn't keep his lustful eyes off her sexy body.
Jocelyn was uncomfortable with that unwanted attention, so she asked warily, “How can I help you, Mr. Guerrero?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSheldon snapped out of his dreamy daze, cleared his throat, and said, “Send out a memo and tell the team to go all
out to tackle Linton Group!”
What?
Jocelyn was stunned by Sheldon's order. She stared at him in disbelief. “Mr. Guerrero, Intercontinental Group is in
deep trouble now, and yet you want them to continue with the attack on Linton Group? Aren't you worried we'll get
ourselves into deeper trouble and collapse?”
“What do you mean by collapse, Jocelyn?” Sheldon was displeased.
“Isn't it plain for all to see? Intercontinental Group has run out of funds and cannot even pay the staff. The daily
operations have been halted for the past few days. Isn't that a clear sign that the company is in trouble and on the
brink of collapse?”
Run out of funds?
Sheldon laughed out loud and said, “Oh, Jocelyn! You think too lowly of me and Intercontinental Group! To be
honest, money is never a problem for me!”
“You still have money? Then why didn't you pump in the funds to sustain the company?” Jocelyn was taken by
surprise.
