<i>Chapter </i><b>32 </b>You have some nerve


    <i>Nichs </i>was stunned! Jessica<b>, </b>the undisputed businesswoman of Delvin <i>Hub</i><i>, </i>was undoubtedly shrewd and capable. She was agresing to let her little assistant gamble with Nichs over the Windows Street property?


    What was Jessica thinking?


    After a moment of contemtion, Nichs figured it out. TMO had long wanted to develop the Windows Streetnd but couldn’t ovee certain problems, hence why it had remained idle. Now that TMO secured the cooperation with Healthy Land, they needed significant capital investment.


    By epting the assistant’s gamble, Jessica was smoothly handling a troublesome asset she couldn’t do anything about – the fortitude befitting a queen of the business world! Even he couldn’t help


    admiring her for that.


    If Nichs could acquire the Windows Street property at its price from three years ago, it would be like winning the Powerball jackpot for him. He was eager to clinch the deal, so he began to press Daniel.


    “Jessica has agreed to our wager. So, do what you want to do. Make me spend two billion to buy these worthless items!”


    Daniel picked up a rock from outside and began to smash it against the statue. The statue’s edge broke off, pitting and marring its


    surface. Brittany grew anxious.


    “What are you doing? Even though it’s a fake, that statue is still worth


    a million. If you damage it, it’ll be worthless! Stop it now!”


    “Before I smash it, it’s worth only a million, but when I’m finished, it’ll


    be worth fifty million.”


    “Fifty million? Yeah, sure it is!”


    As Daniel didn’t stop his actions, Brittany turned to Jessica to caution


    her.


    “Jessica, look, he’s damaging the statue.”


    “Didn’t Daniel say? It’s worth one million now, and when he’s done, it’ll be worth fifty. Let him do what he wants. If the statue isn’t worth that much after he’s done, I’ll punish him then!”Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Jessica stood with her arms crossed, seemingly unworried. She didn’t really believe that Daniel, smashing away with a stone, could turn a one–million–dor fake into a fifty–million–dor masterpiece.


    Thump!


    Daniel gave one final, decisive smash.


    Crack…


    Crack, crack…


    Sounds of the statue splitting emerged. The pitted and pockmarked surfacepletely cracked open.


    Brittany, seeing this, eximed, “You… you’ve shattered the statue?”


    “Where’s the damage?”


    “Look, it’s all cracked on the surface. Isn’t that shattered?”


    “Cracks don’t mean it’s broken. They mean the real statue is about to reveal itself. However, to bring it out, Brittany, you’ll have to do some leg work.”


    Daniel’s words were uneptable to Brittany.


    “You want me to run errands for you? Who do you think you are? You’re just a new assistant, not a CEO!”


    Daniel didn’t respond to Brittany. Instead, he turned to Jessica.


    “Jessica, since Brittany isn’t willing to help, it looks like I’ll have to ask


    you to assist me instead.”


    Brittany was shocked! This idiot was ying such tricks on her?


    “Daniel, how dare you! You have the nerve to ask Jessica to run


    errands for you? You… you’re utterly brainless!


    Don’t you realize who she is?


    Jessica, this person who disrespects you must be fired! Otherwise, he


    will definitelymit more outrageous and excessive actions in the


    future!”
