Chapter 364 One Billion
Inside the private room, the more John read, the quicker his heart raced.
Sloan Group’s situation was surprisingly much worse than he had imagined. Some numbers even made his heart skip a beat.
He lifted his eyes and stared at Henry in shock.
Henry still appeared calm and elegant as though he was dealing with something insignificant.
“Mr. Winters, I believe that if this trend continues, Sloan Group will be one billion in debt in less than four years. As for who to bear responsibility for this, have you considered a candidate?”
John broke into a cold sweat.
He was the chief financial officer of Sloan Group. Logically, he would be forced to shoulder that responsibility. However, he didn’t believe the Sloans would be cruel enough to throw him under the bus. After all, he had worked for Sloan Group for decades..
Henry was aware of what John was thinking.
He poured two glasses of wine with a smile and handed one to John. “Have some to calm yourself down. It’s nothing serious, really. This is only the beginning. If you resolve the issue in time, nothing bad will happen. Sloan Group will be fine, and you’ll have a brighter future. If you succeed, you’ll kill two birds with one stone.”
His silver tongue successfully moved John.
The data was reliable, but the collapse was predicted to occur years later.
John hesitated again.
Henry took a step further. “You’re friends with the Sloans, are you not? Can you really sit back and watch while this precious opportunity slips by?” NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
John sipped the red wine and stared at the young man before him quietly.
Although Henry was younger, he was more experienced than John had expected.
However, John didn’t waver. “I separate my public and private life! It’s Crystal’s choice to be with who she wants. I won’t interfere with it.”
Henry smiled. “Of course! I won’t use money in relationship matters either.”
As John examined Henry, he couldn’t help but admit that Henry was much more capable and handsome than Robert.
As Crystal’s father, he hoped her daughter would find happiness with a good man
He didn’t think it was good for a woman to pursue a math
After further consideration, John signed the contract and earned Sloan Group one billion.
Meanwhile, he would be the financial director of Miller Corporation’s branch company.
After everything was settled, John left. Henry opened the door for him, which pleased him. After all, it wasn’t common for an affluent man to act so humbly.
John mulled it over and asked, “I have a question, Henry. When did you fall in love with Crystal? As far as I know, you two don’t really know each other.”
He did not believe in love at first sight..
A faint smile settled on Henry’s countenance as he stared at the man before him. “Perhaps you won’t believe me, but I owe you something, Mr. Winters.”
John frowned, knowing he wouldn’t be getting an answer.
As the older man left, Henry stood there silently. I should’ve called you Dad. That’s what I owed you.
In reality, it was his fault that Crystal didn’t get to meet her father on the night he passed away.
John returned to the office and took care of a few things.
When Crystal returned at night, he wasn’t sure what to say.
At that moment, the doorbell rang.
Anna went to open the door and saw Robert standing outside. He didn’t look too well and seemed to be suppressing his emotions forcefully. “Where’s Crystal?”
