Super system makes me a trillionaire

Hogwart stared at Ronald, a trace of anger welling up within him.

If this Ronald already knew who Bright was, why didn't he say anything to warn him?

At the same time, Hogwart seemed to have realized something.

Back then, when he made Bright give Ronald a toast, why did Ronald look so terrified and restless?

He connected the dots at this moment.

"I…"

At that moment, Ronald's body was trembling violently, his expression bitter as could be. He had not expected to be involved.

Nonetheless, he spoke softly, "I…I know him, Mr. Gaines. We went to the same college… and he's also a shareholder of Fareast Holdings."

At that moment, Hogwart's expression changed.

Fareast Holdings?

That was a conglomerate in Cartmel.

SKY Jewelry, which was owned by Hogwart's family, was a small fry compared to that company.

Right then, Hogwart's face was filled with bitterness.

His dissatisfaction with Bright completely disappeared as if it was never there in the first place.

That was because he was well aware that a rich kid like him had no right to offend someone of Bright's status.

"You see, Mr. John…" he started.

"Hm? Bright glanced at him indifferently.

All Hogwart could do was just give a wry smile.

"I can't come up with that much money on the spot. How about this? I will call my family, what do you think?" He offered.

Originally, Hogwart didn't want to let his parents know, but given the situation at hand, it would be hard to keep his parents in the dark.

Bright waved his hand and replied, "Hurry up, I want to continue celebrating with Melody."

"Yes…"

After giving a bitter smile, Hogwart quickly made a call to his parents.

Upon hearing the specific amount, Hogwart's parents were stunned. Their expressions instantly changed.

They were about to scold him when they heard about Bright's identity. Then, they stopped fussing and hastily drove over.

As for Bright, he was just sitting there.

After sending a message to Elaine on his phone, he quietly ate his grilled meat, along with some shrimp that Melody had peeled for him.

In the private room, it was completely silent.

15 minutes later, the door was pushed open.

In walked a potbellied middle aged man, followed by a posh looking lady.

They took in the sight before them.

The middle aged man then burst into hearty laughter, saying, "Haha! It's an honor to finally meet you, Mr. John. My name is Tylor Gaines."

With that, he quickly moved to Bright's side and reached out his hand.

However, Bright simply continued eating his food.

Instantly, the atmosphere became somewhat rigid and chilly.

Tylor found it hard to maintain his composure.

After all, he was the chairman of SKY Jewelry! He had a relatively prestigious status in Cartmel.

Even so, he was completely ignored by Bright, who just continued eating his shrimp.

Even if he was a shareholder of Fareast Holdings, shouldn't he show some respect to Tylor?

Tylor's face immediately darkened slightly.

The posh looking lady didn't seem pleased either.

However, seeing that Tylor didn't speak, she kept quiet.

With a trace of distress, she stared at her own son, checking to see if he had any injuries.

After finishing off the food, Bright grabbed a tissue and slowly wiped his mouth.

He said at a leisurely pace, "Phew! I'm done eating."

Tylor's face squirmed into an unpleasant grin as he replied, "Can we talk business now?"

"There's not much to talk about. Your son made a bet that he could take care of my watch, saying that he would compensate me for the original price of he lost it.

Now, it's lost, I want 5 mill dollars. Not a single cent more, not a single cent less." Bright stated in a calm tone.

However, his tone made Tylor slightly uncomfortable.

At that moment, Tylor would have happily beaten his own son to death.

Damn it! That useless son of his.

Indeed, SKY Jewelry was a large scale Jewelry business in Cartmel! However, they had been going through a rough patch as of late.

Several international brands joined the Jewelry market in Cartmel, ruthlessly snatching a piece of SKY Jewelry's pie to maintain their own profits and customers.

Just a few days ago, they invested a sum of money, securing a storefront in the Trade Building.

They had just paid the deposit and were preparing to sign a contract.

So, it was fair to say that the Gaines family didn't have much money in their accounts.

They only had around ten million liquidated assets left.

If they were to give 5 million dollars away, they would have a tough time.

Tylor could only give a bitter smile and say, "That was all childish nonsense, Mr. John. Can we negotiate the compensation amount again?"

At that point, Bright's eyes also narrowed slightly.

It was also then that his phone abruptly buzzed.

He picked it up to check who it was.

It was a message from Elaine.

The message clearly outlined the current situation of the Gaines family.

In an instant, Bright sneered to himself.

Then, he looked at Tylor slowly and said, "I will say this one last time, 5 million dollars, not one cent more, not one cent less."

Towards the end, Bright's tone became somewhat cold.

Upon hearing that, Tylor's expression was visibly stiff and awkward.

At that moment, the woman behind him was beginning to become somewhat irate.

She said, "Bright, right? You are just a minor shareholder of the corporation! We only came because we decided to be nice.

Do you really think the Gaines family is afraid of you? Let me tell you, even if we were to walk straight out of this room, nothing would happen!"

The woman's tone was full of disdain towards Bright.

Hearing that, Bright was left speechless for a moment, he chuckled at the situation.

Then, shaking his head, he muttered, "Hmph! So this is how the madam of the Gaines family acts? How ridiculous."

At that moment, Tylor spoke up, "My wife's attitude is the same as mine. So, Mr. John, either we have a serious discussion, or I can only offer you my apologies."

After all, even though Bright was a shareholder of Fareast Holdings, that didn't mean the Gaines family could be messed with.

"Is that so?" Bright laughed lightly.

"Well then, it seems that we have nothing further to discuss."

As he spoke, Bright picked up his phone and slowly told Elaine, "Tell the people at the Trade Building to terminate the lease agreement with SKY Jewelry."
