Seeing that Manuel was unwilling to reveal the purpose of buying the medicine: Pablo followed Chris's previous instructions and prepared to 1st casually promise, and then treat him with a delaying tactic.
Manuel also knew in his heart that Pablo must be hiding something from him: So he spoke: "Uncle Arthur if you can help with this matter, the Ann family will not treat you poorly!"
"I heard that the Arthur family lost a lot of money because of the Catalytic Front."
"So if the Ann family helps, it won't take long to make up for the loss!"
Manuel thought he knew very well the mentality of The wealthy and powerful who suddenly plummeted in value: The mentality of many wealthy and powerful, in fact, is no different from that of a gambler: Once a huge fluctuation in assets, the mentality will change greatly.
The Arthur family lost 1/2 of its fortune at once: Pablo, the head of the family is bound to scratch his heart and soul, thinking of recovering this part of the loss.
However, it is easy to lose 1/2 of the family fortune overnight: But to recover this 1/2 of the family fortune, it may take 10 or 20 years or even longer.
If the Ann family slightly pulls Pablo with a hand, then he will certainly be grateful.
Manuel with this speculation can not be considered wrong, but he completely misjudged the Arthur family's situation.
If the Arthur family really lost 1/2 of the family fortune: Pablo must be racking his brains to try to make up for the loss.
But the actual situation is that the Arthur family strength did not receive any impact: On the contrary, if you count Chris's strength, his assets, and connections, the Arthur family's strength is more than doubled.
Therefore, he had little feeling about this olive branch thrown by Manuel.
So, he righteously said to him: "Manuel, we are relatives, you might think that I do not want to help you."
"let alone want to use this to negotiate with you on any terms, even if I beg him in this matter."
"It is really not within my ability, what I can do is to help you inquire, but what comes from the other side is not in my hands."
Manuel remember when Pablo is always rushing to cooperate with the Ann family: But every time it was good, the old man did not hesitate to refuse.
He did not expect, now he represents the Ann family, extends to Pablo an olive branch and he did not buy it.
When he thought that the old man was trying to catch him, thinking how to change his words, Chris gave Pablo a gesture to hang up: And Pablo immediately said to Manuel: "Manuel I have something to do, let's talk some other time."
After saying that, without waiting for Manuel's response, he directly hung up the phone.
Manuel at the other end of the phone was a bit caught off guard.
The person who hung up on him so rudely, other than the old man, it seems that there has never been another person.
When he was annoyed and uncertain, Pablo on the other side put the phone back into his pocket and said to Chris: "The Ann family is indeed used to being arrogant, they avoided me as a poor relative some years ago."
"But now that they are asking me to do something, the arrogance in their bones has not changed."
Chris lightly said, "This great uncle of mine can shout out on the spot to take away the Re-juvenation tablet with 370 billion."
"You can see that they are indeed arrogant, so arrogant that they do not put the rules set by others in their eyes."
"Always think that as long as there is enough money, any rule will be changed for them."
Speaking here, Chris smiled slightly and said casually, "It doesn't matter, since they feel good about themselves, just let them be."
Then, he said, "Right grandpa, I have to go to the U.S in a couple of days."
"I may not come back until a month or so, so it will be hard for you to take care of the affairs of the Arthur family."
Pablo asked curiously, "Chris, why are you suddenly going to the U.S?"
"You're not going to visit the Ann family, are you?"
Chris shook his head and laughed: "Why? I am accompanying Nora to attend a training."
Pablo nodded and said, "Alright, don't worry about the Arthur family, as for your uncle's side."
"I won't rush to find him anyway, if he wants to find me, I definitely won't see him either."
"Alright." Chris stood up and said, "Grandpa, it's getting late, you should rest early."
"I should also go home, when are you going back to Cliffspring, I will go to the airport to see you off."
Pablo said, "No need to toss and turn, I am an elderly person who sleeps less."
"I wake up naturally at 5 o'clock, after waking up, just eat something."
"Let Marloy Smith send me to the airport, you don't have to come to see me off."
Chris thought, 5 or 6 o'clock to the airport is still a bit early, so he nodded and said: "Grandpa, in that case, then I will not see you off, when I come back from the U.S, then I will come to Cliffspring to see you."
