Chapter 985
Jaydon and Cassius were still engaged in intense negotiations.
Cassius said, “Now that you’ve heard Grace’s voice, you can feel relieved.
“Hurry up and give me the evidence. I’ll get someone to let her go immediately.”
Jaydon took a deep breath and said, “No. I want you to release Grace first.
“As long as you release Grace, I’ll definitely give it to you.”
When Cassius heard this, he gritted his teeth and said, “Don’t test my patience anymore. There’s a limit
to my patience.
“I’ve said it before. As long as you hand over the evidence, I’ll definitely let her go.”
“I’m not testing your patience,” Jaydon said. “I’m trying to safeguard my interests. What if I give you the
evidence and you go back on your word? “There are so many assets. I don’t think that you will readily
give them to me. I need to see the money first before considering giving you the evidence.” Jaydon
could only suppress his anger and constantly emphasize his interests.
Cassius rolled his eyes. He replied angrily and helplessly, “I said I won’t go back on my word. That
means I won’t go back on my word.”
“Verbal promises are not trustworthy,” Jaydon said. “How can I then believe you based on what you
said? You need to take some concrete actions so that I can see your sincerity.”
Cassius was left speechless. Upon hearing this, he gritted his teeth. He really wanted to crush Jaydon
into ashes right then and there.
“What do you want then?” Cassius said.
“Release Grace first,” Jaydon said. “Then, hold a press conference to announce that I’m the new
director of Millego Group. After that, transfer the 10 billion dors worth of assets to my name. I’ll then
give you the evidence.”
Cassius tried his best to suppress his anger. He said, “Haha. What if I fulfill your demands, and then
you go back on your word?”
“I won’t,” Jaydon said. “As long as you agree to my demands, I’ll give you the evidence. Like you said,
we can only be full if a cake is eaten by two people.

“I just want to get what I want, and I don’t care about others.” Jaydon was trying to strategically make a
temporary concession in order to gain greater advantages. He was trying his best to deal with Cassius.
Now, the two of them were engaged in an intense psychological game. The first person that
Of course, Jaydon would not let Cassius off.
Cassius had caused the deaths of their father and aunt. He had also acted ruthlessly against his other
siblings and forced them into desperate situations.
Jaydon certainly wanted to seek revenge for them.
Seeing that Jaydon was determined, Cassius could only make apromise. “How about this?” he
said. “Let’s both make apromise. “As you know, transferring arge amount of funds and changing
the ownership of apany take time.
“I can hold a press conference first and publicly announce that you’re a director of Millego Group. In
addition, I’ll provide you with a promissory note of 10 billion dors, and I’ll get awyer to notarize it.
This way, you’ll be able to trust me, right?”
Cassius’s patience had reached its limit.
At the moment, he only wanted to get the evidence back as soon as possible. Otherwise, not only
would his reputation be ruined, but he would also be imprisoned.
Although neither Venturas nor Greyport imposed the death penalty, he still had to suffer life
imprisonment.
He had worked so hard to stand at the top of the pyramid. He would never let anyone shake his
position.
“Okay, but you have to release Grace first,” Jaydon said. He still insisted and refused to back down.
His only concern now was his sister.
As long as his sister was safe, he would immediately hand over the evidence of Cassius’s crimes to the
police.
The folder given to him by Yasmine contained all the incriminating evidence of Cassius’s crimes, as
well as Tim’s handwritten will.
Each piece of evidence was powerful enough to severely damage Cassius’s reputation and lead to his
downfall.

Cassius was very angry, so much so that he felt his lungs were about to explode. He lost control of his
emotions and could not help but be hysterical. He said, “Give me the evidence first, and I’ll
release Grace immediately.
“Jaydon, I’ve run out of patience. Either give it to me immediately, or we’ll both go down in mes.
“I’m the chairman of Grimm Group now. If you push me too far, you can forget about getting any
money.
“I’ll donate all Grimm Group’s assets to the National Foundation before I go to prison. At that time, you
won’t get a single cent…”
Jaydon sneered and said, “Up to you then.
“Since you said so, there’s no need for us to continue this conversation.” He was certain that Cassius
would never do that.
“Jaydon, do you really want to push me to go down in mes?” Cassius said. “Would you believe me if
I were to tell you that I could kill your sister right now? Think carefully. She’s your only biological sister.”
“I don’t want to go down the mes with you,” Jaydon said. “Win-win cooperation is the way to go.
“I have no other requests. I just want you to release Grace first. Then, just give me what I want, and
that’s all. It’s you who have been unwilling topromise.”
After venting his emotions, Cassius’s rationality took over again. He said, “Jaydon, I’ve already
“I promise you. As long as I get the evidence, Grace will definitely be safe. The money you want will be
transferred to your ount in full without any deduction.”
Currently, Grace was his only bargaining chip.
If Jaydon went back on his word, Cassius would be in big trouble. Therefore, until he got the evidence,
he would never release Grace.
Jaydon knew that Cassius would not release Grace unless he received the evidence. Jaydon was just
trying to stall for time. “Cassius, I won’t give it to you until Grace returns,” he said.
“If that’s what you are saying, there’s no room for negotiation then, right?” Cassius said. His voice
suddenly turned sharp. There was a sense of aggression and hostility.

Jaydon lowered his head and looked at his watch. His heart was racing.
He kept praying silently in his heart, hoping that Bruce would be able to locate his sister in time and
save her.
All he could do now was to buy time as much as possible.
“It seems that if I don’t get serious with you, you will think I’m a pushover,” Cassius said. “Jaydon, don’t
regret it, okay?”
As he spoke, Cassius immediately called Mike.
Mike answered the call and respectfully said, “Mr. Grimm, please give your orders.”
Cassius said fiercely, “Teach that bitch a lesson immediately.”
“Mr. Grimm, to what extent should I teach her a lesson?” Mike asked.
“As long as she doesn’t get killed, you can teach her a lesson in any way,” Cassius said. His face was
gloomy.
“It seems that if I don’t y hardball, I can’t control Jaydon, let alone make himpromise,” Cassius
thought.
“Alright, Mr. Grimm,” Mike said. He immediately called Johnny.
“Cassius, don’t you dare,” Jaydon said. He felt a sudden tightening in his chest.
Now, he could only ce all his hopes on Bruce.
Of course, he was just taking a gamble.
“It’s just the beginning,” Cassius said. “The best part is yet toe!
“I’ll give you half an hour to think about it. After half an hour, I can’t guarantee what will happen to your
sister.
“In less than an hour, I’ll have someone cut off one of her fingers.”
“Cassius, you crazy and heartless piece of shit,” Jaydon said as he gripped the phone in his hand
tightly.

Cassius said, “You made me do this.
“Your sister’s life is in your hands now. Don’t take too long to consider. The longer you think, the more
torture she will suffer.”
When Jaydon heard this, the sweat on his head kept flowing. He had always been a warm and soft-
hearted man. Naturally, he would not risk his sister’s life.
“Alright,” Jaydon said. “I agree to your demand. I’ll give it to you.”
