Chapter 214
'How should I retort? Should I make him admit that he has some issues with us? And it's because my mother stabbed his wife's father? If I did that, 1 would rate the front page, Jenna maised. Although she was not worried it might take a toll on her acting career, public opinion could still deal a blow to her. If Charlie took publir opinion to his advantage, she wouldn't be able to fight back. Exasperated, Jenna said in a hushed tone, "Are you serious, Mr. Franco! My father already gave you a big sum of money. Why are you still going against us? If you have more terms, we can negotiate. Do you have to go this far?" Charlie regarded her with a gaze full of mockery.
As he glanced around, he met the inquisitive guze from the crowd and said, "We decided to build the graveyard and cemetery for those who sacrifice their lives for our nation on that land a long time ago. It's just we have yet to announce it to the public. I bet you must know that there aren't many graveyards available in Fayeaster, but there are many houses that no one buys. According to our custom, we bury the dead. But siner the graveyard is scarce, many can't get one for their family." "That's right
"We didn't even get a place in a graveyard for my grandfather"
Many present
echoed Charlie's words.
"It cost a fortune to have a baby. Getting a tomb is challenging. Even if we call gain access to a tomb, it's costly"
"There isn't much place for a graveyard in town."
"However, isn't it too valuable to build a cemetery there!

When he heard the last speaker's words. "Is it? When we build graveyards there, it'll cost less than others. Besides, one of them will be the largest for those who sacrifice their lives for our country.
He rested his eyes on Jenna and continued, "As its developer, shouldn't Brown Estate have gotten to know its surroundings well? Isn't its housing price too expensive considering that it'll be close to the cemetery?" When they heard his remarks, anger rose in everyone's heart.
"You're right"
"Not only is it in the neighborhood of the cemetery, but it's also so expensive. They've gone too
"The housing price in the area near the graveyard is about ten thousand per square foot, yet the housing price here is about five times higher. Brown Group has crossed the line"
"A villa here costs even more. The rich won't live near the graveyard"
"Shouldn't you people from Brown Group give us an explanation! I just paid the down payment. I want a refund?
cing their anger, Jenna was at a loss and didn't know what to do. Realizing the gravity of the situation, one of her assistants gave Sterling a call.
Sterling was in the middle of a preeting when he answered the phone. Upon hearing Charlie's presence in Chimen Garden, he ended the meeting immediately.
By the time he arrived at the sales center, there was no sign of Charlie and Kamryn. Meanwhile, those people who initially planned to purchase an estate in Chimen Garden had a change of heart and left. As for those who had paid the down payment, they asked for a refund. Moreover, learning the recent event there, those who hadn't been around and paid the down payment came over and wanted to get their money
Sterling spotted Jeana who was standing still and staring at the crowd in distress.
"What's all this?" he asked Jeuna, a bit exasperated. "Are they making trouble here?"
Jenna quickly explained the situation. "Don't get it wrong, Dad. These are our clients who have paid the down payment.
"Then why are they asking for a refund? There is no refund. They've signed a contract with us Sterling huffed.
His vouer was loud enough for everyone present to hear. His statement enraged the crowd.
"Why is there no refund?

"You people from Brown Group have gone too far?
"It's against the law for you to engage in false advertising. Besides, your stuff hasn't told us there will

the cemetery nearby
"That's right! You're in the wrong. How could you mention the contract to threaten av
For a moment, furious voices reverberated in the hall.
Their remarks made Stealing even more puzzled. "What's with false advertising? And the cemetery? I have no idea what you're talking about"
Jenna quickly explained, "Dad, here is the thing. Charlie and Kamryn were here. He announced that he is going to build the cemetery and graveyard on a land near our community in front of us."
"What did you just say?" Sterling exclaimed in utter shock. "Graveyard and cemetery will be built nearby
"Yes. Dad, I think Charlic is after ust" Jenna confirmed with a nor.
Recovering from his shock, Sterling asked seriously, "Are you sure about that?"
"Charlie said it himself," Jenna responded.
When he heard this, he looked back at the mountain on the white board and frowned. "It can't be! He is doing all this because he is bent on ruining this project. He is so cruel!"
"Isn't two billion enough for compensation? It can buy over a hundred companies like Ramsey Group. Why is he still going after me?
With these thoughts in his mind, Sterling was so angry that lie almost passed out.
Watching him clutching his chest, Jenna held him up with her hands worriedly and helped him to sit down. Stroking his chest to toothe him, she said. "Don't get worked up, Dad. It's not worth it if you fall ill for it" "Please calm down. Mr. Brown"
"Please don't be mad. Mr. Brown.
The staff tried to persuade him
Jenna continued. "We can have a good talk with Charlie. Perhaps we can get him to have a change of heart."
"I think he is bent on puiting me down, Sterling seethed. "What a ruthless man! He's trying to corner our company."
Jenna was so worried that she was on the verge of tears,
and the community
She was well aware of the gravity of the situation. It would not end up losing several billion. They had launched the project, was under construction. They couldn't stop the project or it would be an abandoned project and all their investment would be for nothing Sterling teetered on the brink of breakdown.
Jenna voiced her thoughts. "I knew it, Dad. Something is amiss with Charlie's asking for a two-billion compensation. I figured he was using that money to build the graveyard and cemetery on the mountain to mess with you!"
Her words made things worse,
Sterling was so upset that he almost fainted.
Seeing this, the assistant who had called Sterling cut in, "Miss, please don't make Mr. Brown angry!"
