Chapter 1707 I’ll Handle This

• Deputy Director Park realized what was happening and groaned inwardly.
• He’d jumped to the conclusion that Gale Bush wanted thirty billion dollars. Turns out Gale only asked for three to five hundred million. But Park had already tossed out a sky‑high number. If they kept negotiating down from that, three to five hundred million would never satisfy Gale anymore. It’d be at least over a billion. Maybe several billions. The thought gave him a throbbing headache. He could already see the mess coming.
• He knew damn well that if he went to negotiate with the An family himself, there was no way they’d cough up that kind of cash. Forget several billions—even three to five hundred million, they wouldn’t pay.
