Chapter - 33

Elaine was over the moon and a little disbelieving when she heard Axel’s statement. Her money had increased from 1.3 million to two million! She asked, astonished, “Are you sure? Are you really giving me two million?”

Axel nodded hurriedly. “Of course! It’s all yours!”

“Wow, that’s wonderful!” Elaine shrieked in excitement.

Seeing Elaine not only getting back her money, but also the additional five hundred thousand dollars, the rest of the elders were tiptoeing in jittery. They felt that since Elaine’s money was refunded, they should also receive the same treatment as well, shouldn’t they? Hence, some of them started, “Mr. Jordan, what about our money?”

Axel turned to Albert, exasperated. Albert was heavyhearted to surrender all the money he had pocketed, but he was up against the Wade family who he couldn’t afford to pick a fight with-he might even lose his life. Hence, he blurted, “Just refund, refund them all! For Mr. Wade’s sake, they’ll get back their capital and the dividends!”

The crowd cheered delightfully.

Suddenly, Charlie’s cold voice sounded. “Don Albert, what do you mean by ‘for my sake?’ I have nothing to do with these people. Are you trying to blackmail me?”
