Chapter 685:

She said, “Let them walk. They’re too greedy. Denis, we’ll find someone else. I refuse to believe that there’s no one else out there who can handle this p>

“Insane. Absolutely insane!” Isabella screamed, her voice echoing in the room. She stormed to the doorway and hurled her fury at Brenna’s back. “You’re so obsessed with money that it has made you lose your mind! Who do you even think you are? Just because you’re the Harper family’s daughter, you think you can always get what you want? Asking for half? Are you out of your mind? No sane person would say something that ridiculous p>

Jordy and Denis locked eyes, their faces hardening with anger. Brenna wasn’t just greedy; she was also cunning. She knew the money was dirty, so she had the audacity to demand such a big slice.

Denis let out a cold laugh. “She’s playing with fire. I won’t let her succeed p>

Jordy kept his gaze on the elevator, watching as Brenna’s figure disappeared behind the closing doors. “She really walked away?” He had thought it was just a bluff to squeeze out a better deal. He hadn’t expected Brenna to actually leave.

Now he realized that Brenna was far more ambitious than he’d ever imagined.

“Denis, do we have anyone else we can pull in?” Jordy asked.

Denis shook his head. “We’ve tried everyone. Four of the top five hackers in the world… We brought them in and paid through the nose, but not one pulled it off. The one at the top is a ghost. No one even knows if they are a man or a woman, or how to find them p>

He let out a deep sigh. “Half of the money… That’s insane. But if someone could just talk her down a little, I’m willing to give her one hundred million. That’s as far as I go. Jordy, didn’t you use to date Brenna? You two were even engaged before. Maybe she still has a soft spot for you. Could you talk to her p>

The truth was, Jordy wasn’t sure if he could persuade Brenna. Brenna was with Ethan now. She probably didn’t see him as anyone important anymore. Still, it wouldn’t hurt to try.

“I’ll give it a shot,” he said.

If this deal went through, he stood to make at least a billion, maybe even two. Of course, he had to try.

“I’ll set up a meeting with her.” Jordy pulled out his phone and called Brenna. It barely rang twice before she cut the call.

Isabella saw that and let out a cold snort. “With the way you are now, Brenna wouldn’t glance at you twice. After all, the richest man in this world is her boyfriend p>

Jordy’s fists clenched at his sides. It was bad enough that Brenna had brushed him off, but to also have Isabella throwing jabs at him? That was too much.

“You’re one to talk. You—” he shot back, but Denis’s sharp glance cut him short.

Isabella might not have come from a prestigious family, but she was Denis’s girlfriend. She wasn’t someone Jordy could afford to cross.

Isabella laughed mockingly. “Who do you think you are? Just a bootlicker for the Wagner family. Don’t act so arrogant in front of me. If you think you are so capable, go convince Brenna p>

Jordy was furious but was smart enough not to lash out at her. “Fine, I’ll go. At worst, I’ll throw in more money. I refuse to believe Brenna would walk away from a deal this big p>
