Jesse fiddled with the double-barreled shotgun in his hand as he faced the woman’s question, and said, “I’m fine with anything.”
When the woman saw the two men nodding in agreement, the corners of her mouth rose slightly and she said, “Since it’s a gamble between the three of us, of course, it can’t be in the United States or even in the Western world, otherwise we will all have the ability to influence the game. On the other hand, this matter can’t be too small, otherwise it will be boring.
“Why don’t we bet on whether JW Foundation can take down the third largest investment bank, Morgan Investment Bank?”
After these words came out, Noe immediately smiled bitterly.
“Bella, you know that my family is having a fierce dispute over this matter, and now the war hawks and the doves are divided equally, such that no one can persuade the other side. I’m not in the mood to take this as a gamble at this moment in time.”
“Morgan Investment Bank is just one of the many assets of Morgan Financial Group. What’s there to dispute about?” Bella said in dissatisfaction.
“You can’t say that.”
Jesse interjected, “Let’s not talk about our respective families. JW Foundation, JW, and that Jasper Laine behind them have already entered the sights of the
Freemasons a long time ago. At present, the Freemasons have a lot of different opinions about Jasper. Some people think that he can be roped in or they can even allow him to join, but others think that he is challenging the global economic system which has been dominated by Western countries for hundreds of years, which is unforgivable.”
“What a group of antiques.”
Bella’s expression was full of sarcasm as she said, “I never interfere with these things. I have a headache when I hear about them, but if Jasper really can overturn them, then color me impressed.”
After she said this, Jesse and Noe both laughed.
There was no sarcasm or negativity in their laughter, but they felt that this was just as funny as hearing an ant moving al mountain.
“Alright, we can only guarantee fairness t o each other in this kind of bet. As for my stake, I’ll just use 18% of the stocks from the De Beers company that my family gave me when I was coming of age.”
“De Beers? The world’s largest supplier of diamonds? 18% of this company’s stocks i sa lot,” Noe said in surprise.
“I still have a lot of similar industries. I can’t even count how many things I got, but I only have one such baby.” Bella did not care. Instead, she glanced at the gyrfalcon in Noe’s hand with envy. She then asked, “How about it? Your stake will be your baby, do you want to do it?”
As if the temptation was not enough, Bella added, “Whether you win or lose, I can still give you those stocks.
“Come on, what are you waiting for?”
Noe laughed and said, “No matter if I win or lose, I can get 18% of De Beers’ shares.
I won’t be able to get Morgan Investment Bank’s shares anyway, so I’ll be more practical and ensure I have some shares o n hand. Alright, I’ll give you my baby if I lose then.”
“Okay, you can pick first. Do you think JW Foundation can take down Morgan Investment Bank?”
