Chapter 1081 - 1080: Young Master Peary Extorted
EdbertNia Mitchell’s face instantly turned grim.Chicken?
Heh.
This description really is...
As expected, Young Master Peary is truly Young Master Peary.
No mistake, the voice on the phone definitely belonged to Maxwell Peary.
Upon hearing Maxwell Peary’s words, Edbert glanced instinctively at Nia Mitchell, who was standing not far away.
She had already cleaned herself up, with several small scratches on her face and neck.
Seems like things were really intense just now.
Seeing Nia Mitchell like this made Edbert’s expression even darker.
Damn!
This Fera Hill, he would definitely make her pay the deserved price.
"You said it yourself, it’s my venue, what business do you have meddling?"
Edbert was completely unwilling to accept this.
Though he admitted it was his mistake.
But even if he was at fault, it wasn’t up to an outsider to come and point fingers.
Thinking of this, Edbert’s face turned even gloomier.
"It’s your venue, but the one being bullied is my wife."
Maxwell Peary was originally looking for a reason to latch onto Edbert.
Later today, he planned to talk with Nia Mitchell, emphasizing that Star Media was too dangerous, and he felt uneasy.
It would be better for her to return to MC Group.
Mmm, yes.
He had to give it his all to persuade her, ensuring his future benefits were secured.
Recalling the feeling of holding her soft and gentle self at noon.
So captivating...
So wonderful...
But...
Ever since his wife went to Star Media, all of that was gone.
All gone!!!
The CEO expressed great displeasure!
"You were the one who sent her over."
This matter was mutual consent.
Maxwell Peary sent Nia Mitchell to Star Media, so for the events happening here, Maxwell had to take some responsibility.
Pfft—
Maxwell Peary instantly wanted to spit blood.
Damn!
This Edbert is exactly as the rumors say, smooth-talking and distortive of truth.
No wonder he’s in the media business.
He inherently has the spirit of a Paparazzi.
"Just say how you want to handle this?"
Edbert raised an eyebrow, Nia Mitchell had suffered here, let alone Maxwell Peary calling, even if he hadn’t called, Edbert would certainly deal with it properly.
But now, since Maxwell spoke...
He naturally wouldn’t let this chance slip.
"One billion."
A flat price, he said with a slight curve in his mouth.
One billion?
Damnit, Edbert, this is taking advantage of the crisis.
He never thought he would ask for money at this time.
Is this truly Edbert’s style?
"Alright."
"I’m talking about USD."
Edbert was absolutely pushing limits, no matter the anger evidenced on Maxwell Peary’s face within MC Group.
Alright, Edbert!
Maxwell Peary laughed rather than being angry; this money, he would surely make him cough it right back up.
"Deal."
Oh!
Edbert secretly raised an eyebrow, Maxwell Peary was surprisingly straightforward.
Really, seems like the asking price was too low; had he known, he should have asked for a bit more.
Thinking of this, Edbert felt vexed.
Missed opportunities are gone forever.
"Immediately, right now, I want to see this money in my account."
"Beep—beep—beep—"
The busy tone from the other end of the phone.
Oh?
Hung up?
Almost in the same instant, a billion USD appeared in Edbert’s account.
Mmm, Young Master Peary certainly is Young Master Peary, his decisiveness is impeccable.
