Expert Down The Mountain Chapter 72

“It’s alright. You may leave us for now,” Sadie told Chelsea. Sadie then put down the document in her hand and looked at Miles. “Mr. Lawson, that’s not very polite of you.”

Miles was so angry that he gritted his teeth while talking. “What is there to be polite of? Sadie Wolfenden, let me ask you, did you do it on purpose? Was it because you felt that Wolfenden Corp. was finally going to be controlled by me that you did something as disgusting as such?” Sadie’s face turned stone cold. She coldly instructed, “Mr. Lawson, you better mind your words!”

Miles fumed. He was so angry that he just wanted to destroy everything in the office. He slammed the desk with both hands! “You b*tch! Six bank presidents have come to ask us to repay our loan. We have totally lost our cash flow, and you’re asking me to mind my words!?” Sadie’s expression changed. She jumped up from her seat and walked right out of her office. Miles tagged right behind her with a gloomy face. In the meeting room right next to the finance department… Sadie put up a smile before entering the meeting room. Six people were seated in the meeting room. These six people were from the different banks the company had received its loans from. “Mr. Sullivan, sorry to have kept you waiting. I came over as soon as I heard that you arrived,” said Sadie.

Mr. Sullivan was known as Henry Sullivan to his close friends. Henry had a stoic face when he addressed Sadie. “It’s no problem, Ms. Wolfenden. After all, we are here to talk about business.”

Sadie kept the smile on her face and responded, “Yes, Mr. Sullivan, I can understand that. Why don’t we address the elephant in the room and go straight to the point? After all, we have had a great history working together.”

“Alright then, let us go straight to the point. I’m here to discuss the termination of the $ 12,000,000 loan. I will need you to repay the amount immediately,” said Henry.

Sadie’s heart skipped a beat. What had happened? The company has had a long history with Henry. Things had been smooth all this while. “Mr. Sullivan, your request is a bit too sudden. You should at least allow us some time to reorganize…”

“Hahaha. Ms. Wolfenden, why would you need more time? From what I am aware, your company should be cash-rich. After all, four to five months back, Wolfenden Corp. had started to accumulate cash flow. I think everyone in the industry is aware of this. Are you playing us for fools?

“Ms. Wolfenden, if you feel it’s okay to play us for fools, we will leave immediately. However, Wolfenden Corp. will have to bear the consequences,” said Mr. Zigler, another bank president. Sadie still maintained her composure and her smile. “Mr. Zigler, why would you say that? I believe that Wolfenden Corp. is a reputable name that carries enough weight in terms of

honoring agreements and contracts.” Sadie looked and addressed the remaining four bank presidents. “I guess the four of you are also here to request a repayment of the loan?” “Ms. Wolfenden, we apologize for the abruptness, but we would appreciate it if you could understand our concerns and position on this matter”, another bank president voiced out.

Graham Zigler, the bank president, snickered. “It is only natural that you pay back what you owe others. Ms. Wolfenden, I think that now is not the time to play the relationship card and ask for favors! You should just focus on expediting the repayment. Things might take an ugly turn if you don’t pay back on time. That time, you will only have yourself to blame.” Graham was Johnson’s nephew, and Kuhn was his cousin. He was already aware of the rivalry between Wolfenden Corp. and Johnson. As such, when he first received Sir Patrick Allen’s call, he immediately contacted Kuhn about it.

When Kuhn learned about it, he requested Graham to create some trouble for Sadie. It would be a bonus if Wolfenden Corp. could go down as well! Graham had no inkling why a small company such as Wolfenden Corp. would offend and go against his uncle. Did they not want to survive?

Upon hearing what Graham had said, Sadie repressed her boiling emotions and maintained her composure. “Sure. I will repay the loan. By tomorrow, we will transfer back the whole amount to your respective banks.” Graham sarcastically snickered. “I’m so sorry, but the due date can only be before 5:00 p.m., today!”

“It’s the same for us too!” The other bank presidents resonated with Graham. Sadie paled at the thought, but she stood her ground and said, “I will try my best!” “Hmph!”Graham snorted before leaving. The other bank presidents also shook their heads lightly and sighed before leaving the meeting room. After their departure, Sadie let her emotions free and crumbled emotionally. Her two eyes stared blankly through the windows of the meeting room. ‘This is perhaps the end for Wolfenden Corp….’
