Chapter 317 - Jack's Exit From Ganke Inc. Production
Chapter 317 – Jack’s Exit From Ganke Inc. Production
Anne stared at Jack's laptop seriously for a few minutes and while she was busy with her laptop, the room suddenly fell silent, none of them made a sound, including Leon and Wayne, who were already restless for fear of their evil plans being exposed. The time that Anne had previously estimated at fifteen minutes turned out to be far off. Because she only needed 5 minutes to find an email sent by Jack to Leon, as the beginning of a conversation discussing the 25% profit he wanted from a collaborative project with Ganke Inc Production.
"Is there a projector, Erick?" asked Anne quietly to Erick.
"You need a projector, Miss?" Erick asked Anne back.
"Yes," answered Anne shortly.
"Wait, I'll find it for you."
Anne smiled at Erick's words. She then took the two contract papers that were lying on the table in the middle of them at the moment.
"Why do you need a projector, Anne?" Jack asked curiously.
"Wait, you'll know the answer in a moment," replied Anne quietly, glancing at Leon and Wayne, who were already unsettled.
Not long after, Erick came back into the room with a projector in his arms. He even asked someone to bring him a projector screen which he usually rarely used. However, because at the moment Anne wanted to make a presentation, Erick finally asked someone to bring a projector screen too, so that the results of Anne's presentation could be seen optimally by everyone in the room, even though Erick was actually not sure about what Anne would do.
After all the preparations were complete, Erick then turned off the lights in the room and Anne began to make her presentation. Anne started to open Jack's email that was sent to Leon when he first responded to Leon's invitation to cooperate. After that, Anne made a follow-up presentation by displaying the emails sent by Jack and Leon alternately so that everyone in the place could clearly see the conversation between Jack and Leon, discussing the cooperation that Leon offered to Jack. Finally, she arrived at the email discussing the results of the cooperation between Muller Finance International and Ganke Inc. Production. In the email, it was clear how Leon initially offered a profit sharing of 20% to Muller Finance International as long as Jack wanted to invest around $ 40 million. However, because Jack said that the amount was not worth it, he finally made another offer to Leon and finally reached a profit sharing agreement of 25% with an investment of $ 43 million, which Jack would give to Ganke Inc. Production. In the email the calculations were very clear and because the email was covered by many emails that Jack didn't pay attention anymore, today Leon finally came with two kinds of contracts with very different values.
Leon insisted that the contract he was holding was the right one, even though in the contract Jack would only get a profit of 20% with an investment of $43 million, while with that amount of investment, he should have made a profit of 25% as previously agreed. Looking at the projector screen, Leon's face suddenly turned pale, and so was Wayne's. He didn't expect that Anne would find out everything. Both of them were sure that they would win today's debate, if it was successful, Ganke Inc. Production's profit would be huge, but it turned out that Anne managed to show clear evidence, which made them unable to refute.
"There seems to be a misunderstanding here, Mr. Muller," said Wayne Scott suddenly, as Anne had finished her presentation.
"Misunderstanding?" asked Anne quickly.
"Yes, it looks like we have to confirm again with our legal team to make sure of this. This is purely my fault, I'm not careful enough, I'm sorry to make such a fuss in this office," Wayne replied, trying to calm down, even though he looked very uneasy at the moment. So it was the legal team that made the mistake.
"But this is…"
"Okay, sir, I understand. However, this is a fatal mistake in my opinion. Therefore, maybe I will reconsider whether we should continue with this cooperation or not," Jack immediately cut Anne's words quickly.
Leon widened his eyes. "What do you mean, Mr. Muller?"
"As I just said, it seems that I have to reconsider whether I should continue this collaboration or not, because with this incident, I have some doubts whether your team is really competent or not. The problem is the amount of difference in money that must be paid. I invest and the profit I get is very different from the initial agreement. Therefore, before I invest any money, I better cancel it. After all, this project has just started, so I decided to leave the investor team in your company, Mr. Ganke. Even though I was initially very interested, but for now it's better for me not to join your project, and hopefully on another occasion, we can rejoin Ganke Inc. Production for further projects," replied Jack at length.
Bam!
"What do you mean, Jackson Muller?!! You can't do this! It's called a violation of the agreement. You can't just cancel the cooperation like this." Leon immediately shouted loudly, full of emotions, after hitting the table in front of him.
Hearing Leon yelled at his master, Erick immediately got up. "Isn't what my boss said was clear, Mr Ganke? Actually, we are the ones who should be disappointed with all of this, because you suddenly came to our office with a contract letter which turned out to have been manipulated to pressure us. Even though it was clearly stated in the initial agreement that we will provide a disbursement of funds worth $43 million with a profit sharing of 25%, but you still insist that the contract you hold is the correct one with a very different nominal. And one more thing, Mr. Ganke, we are not fools who you think you can tricked. Muller Finance International in Switzerland is a large company recognized in Europe, so please don't mess with us. If you want, sir, maybe we will sue you for this case. "
"Sue, you said…"
"Sorry, Mr. Erick, Mr. Jack, please forgive us for this misunderstanding, it seems that the fault here is mine. I, who did not attend this meeting, suddenly came by immediately opening the contract letter which turned out to be wrong. Mr. Ganke was not at fault in this matter. Please just blame me," Wayne Scott cut off Leon's words and immediately got up for him.
Jack smiled at Wayne's words. He then walked over to Wayne and patted his shoulder gently.
"I know, in business there are often misunderstandings. I fully understand it, but once again I explain that I am withdrawing from this project. I will be fair. I accept the fine that you will give according to the initial agreement. And hopefully, next time we can work together again," Jack said softly with a smile.
After saying that, Jack approached Anne again and asked her to leave the place, leaving Erick with his two guests.
"But Jack, that's actually…"
"Hush, don't be so loud, honey, I'm testing Leonardo Ganke's mentality. I'm sure he wouldn't want to accept my money if he still had shame and still had a face for what has happened today, and thank you very much I say to you, dear. Maybe, without you, by now I would have lost millions of dollars, "Jack said quietly cutting Anne. "And I will give you a special gift tonight. Accompany me to work for a while, after that we'll go to the venue that I have specially booked for us tonight."
Anne could not refuse Jack's invitation. She could only surrender when she was asked to return to Jack's room, which was on the top floor of the Muller Finance International building. Meanwhile, soon Leon and Wayne left in embarrassment and upset, especially Leon. He was very angry when he found out about Anne and Jack's relationship.
"I will not give up, Jackson Muller, Anne is mine. No one can have Anne other than Leonardo Ganke," Leon said in a vengeful heart as he left Jack's office towards the parking area.
