Chapter 196: Not A Single Gift!

Russell initially thought it was an a.s.sa.s.sin, robber, or some other crook, so he was so frightened that he retreated to a corner.

However, he looked over to see that it was a mild-mannered and civilized-looking man who had gotten on his knees to beg for money as soon as he came over. He seemed to be in trouble.

Russell walked over only after ensuring that there was no threat or danger.

Russell sized up the young man before asking, Young man, how did you end up here to borrow money from us?

Jordan also found it very strange that someone would suddenly pop up out of nowhere to borrow money from them.

The young man answered truthfully, I just saw your yacht on the Hudson River, and through a pair of binoculars, I saw you guys eating. I know youre all wealthy folks, and $20,000 is probably only the price of a meal to you.

So, I jumped into the Hudson River and then climbed up here to ask you for help.

I am a graduate of the University of Political Science and Law, and heres my graduate diploma. Im not unemployed, and I actually hold a legitimate job with a monthly income of $5,000. If youre willing to end me $20,000, Ill definitely be able to repay you the entire sum!

Russell grabbed the wet graduation diploma book and flipped through it before smiling.

Youre brave, courageous, and resourceful. Youre also very clear about your goals. Not bad.

Jordan could also tell that this young man was rather intelligent to target them because anyone who can dine on this yacht definitely wouldnt take $20,000 seriously.

The fact that he could climb up to this yacht was enough to prove his talent.

Jordan asked, What do you need to borrow $20,000 for? Is your family member sick?

An outstanding student of the University of Political Science and Law who was drawing quite a reasonable salary definitely wouldnt swallow his pride to get on their knees and beg someone to lend them money unless they were in a desperate situation.

The young man said, No, I just need money for my wedding. Im getting married to my girlfriend, but her family wants me to buy a house, a car, and give them $40,000 in cash.

Ive already bought a house and a car, and they have all been paid in full with my parents lifelong savings as well as the hard-earned money Ive been saving in the past two years of living a frugal life. I also borrowed lots of money from others.

Im such a loser. Ive tried all sorts of ways and borrowed money from all my relatives and friends, but I have ama.s.sed at most only $20,000 for the monetary gift.

Im short of another $20,000. Just another $20,000, and Ill have enough money to get married.

Im begging you, please lend me $20,000. I swear Ill definitely return it to you!

The young man spoke very sincerely, and with Jordans knowledge of psychology, he could tell from the signs that he wasnt lying.

Russell nodded and seemed to admire this man as well.

Young man, youre really bold and courageous. Youre a student of a prestigious university of politics and law. Still, youre willing to swallow your pride to get on your knees and beg us for money. I really admire you!

Youre indeed not doing too well, and you dont even have enough money for your wedding, but maybe youre only short of a chance.

Since fate has brought you to me, Ill give you a chance today!

Ill lend you the $20,000, and on top of that, Ill offer you a job in my company that will pay you double of your current monthly salary!

The young man was overjoyed, and he exclaimed, Is that true? Thank you, Sir! Thank you! Great, I can finally marry Lauren!

Without any sense of pride, the young man kowtowed to Russell to thank him.

Russell stood in place arrogantly, smoking a cigarette and holding a gla.s.s of red wine in hand. He said, As long as youre under me, I can let you marry any woman you want!

On the contrary, as long as you mess with me, Russell Miller, Ill have the ability to make even your wife leave you!

Russell was extremely arrogant.

He was totally like the wealthy and obnoxious villains in movies!

Russell looked at the young man, Wilson, and said, Youre Wilson, right? Ill give you a phone number, call this number in an hour, and hell transfer you $20,000. He will also proceed with the administrative procedures of your job position in m company.

Yes, thank you, Mr. Miller! Thank you, Mr. Miller!

After receiving the number from Russell, Wilson wrote it down and then gratefully kowtowed a few more times.

He then stood up and said, Thank you, Mr. Miller, I shall not disturb your meal any further. Ill get going now.

Wilson was about to leave in satisfaction, but Jordan called out to him to stop him. Did I say you could leave?

This was the yacht that Jordan had borrowed. Given his close relations.h.i.+p to the owner, the yacht was tantamount to being Jordans at the moment.

There would be no issues with Jordan acting as the owner of the yacht!

A stranger had come on board Jordans yacht. While Jordan stayed silent, Russell pretended to be impressive. He flaunted his ability to control the well-being of others under the pretext of being a kind person.

Is he going to leave just like that?

Who does he take me for?!

Wilson turned around to look at Jordan, who was about the same age as himself and confused.

Jordan said austerely, This is my yacht. Did I say that you can leave?

Russell frowned and said, This kid is here to borrow money. Now that he has gotten a loan, why are you holding him back for? Do you intend to let him stay for a meal?

Jordan said, Youve indeed lent him money, but I havent made my stand.

Russell laughed and said, It seems that you want to vie with me for the chance to be a good man. Do you want to lend money to him?

Jordan rolled his eyes at Russell and said, Who said I want to lend him money?

Jordan walked towards Wilson and said, Youre an elite graduate of the University of Political Science and Law, and youre earning a decent income. Given your intelligence and guts, your future prospects shouldnt be too bad.

Yet, youve broken the law today and trespa.s.sed a private yacht. You even got on your knees to beg someone for money just for your d.a.m.ned wedding!

Dont you think all the education youve received in the past decade or so has gone down the drain!?!

Wilson lowered his head and said, I am indeed very useless. I cant even afford to give my girlfriends parents $40,000 as a gift. I spent close to a million dollars on the house. My girlfriend and I are both from Orlando, and Im sure you know how expensive property prices are over there. Im really at my wits end, and my girlfriends parents have demanded that I pay $40,000, not a single cent less.

Jordan hollered, You should not give a single cent to them!

Wilson and Russell were both dumbfounded.

Jordan continued, Asking for a monetary gift as a condition for marriage is the absolutely most disgusting thing to me. Bill Gates got married with nothing to his name, and this is an unreasonable request!

Youve been working for two years with a monthly income of $6,000. Even if you scrimped and saved, youd have at most tens of thousands of dollars. How could you possibly afford to buy a million-dollar home and a car that costs 50 grand or so!?!

If you have to obtain these material a.s.sets before she is willing to marry you, have you ever thought about whether she is marrying you because of you or because of your a.s.sets?!
