Chapter 1059:
Caught somewhat off guard by the sudden turn of events, Foley could only manage a hesitant nod of agreement.
After all, capital verification could technically be conducted through various methods, as long as the company could demonstrate sufficient funds were available in its accounts.
Seeing Foley’s acceptance, Reuben turned back to Millie with a satisfied expression. “So what do you say now? Have you gotten the result you were hoping for p>
“Actually, yes,” Millie replied smoothly, turning to Taylor. Taylor understood immediately and nodded, her fingers moving quickly across her tablet.
“Since we’re going with the simplest method,” Millie said as she pulled up a specific page on her device, which Taylor then projected onto the large wall screen for everyone to see.
The display showed a detailed account balance, specifically the current holdings of JM Investments.
Everyone in the room instinctively looked up, their eyes scanning across the numbers and counting the digits carefully.
Then Babette let out a harsh, mocking laugh that echoed through the conference room.
“Well, I’ll admit I’m somewhat surprised you have anything at all, Millie. But it’s only eighty million dollars. That’s still not nearly enough to meet the requirement,” Babette said with obvious satisfaction.

She turned to face Babette and Reuben directly, a small smile playing at the corners of her mouth. “There you go. One hundred million dollars. So tell me—is that sufficient now p>
Reuben’s expression tightened slightly, a small frown creasing his forehead. He had clearly underestimated Millie’s resources and connections, never actually expecting her to produce the full amount they’d demanded.
But observing that she’d needed to urgently transfer funds from other sources, he suspected she had likely exhausted her immediately available capital and wouldn’t be able to produce anything more.
With that assumption in mind, he decided to push even harder. “How impressive! But since we’re being flexible with the requirements, how about we make it one hundred and fifty million instead? Tell me, Millie—do you have access to another fifty million dollars p>
The room immediately erupted into animated discussions, with people whispering and murmuring to each other, creating a buzzing noise that filled the entire conference space.
