Chapter: 6769

The chairman's face turned white with shock as he exclaimed: "Now...now we can only pull back the underground network? What will Steve Rockefeller do to me?"

The golden-haired man said: "Chairman, I think since Steve has publicly spoken out against us in the financial circles, it's equivalent to all of them keeping an eye on this matter. At this moment, you should quickly withdraw from the underground network and apologize to him. He shouldn't give you too much trouble if you cooperate, and his reputation will also be affected. Moreover, the fundamental logic is that you launched the underground network first and then saved Tavanna's life, so it's not intentional provocation. When he declares that he wants to save Tavanna, you should show him some face, and he shouldn't give you too much trouble either. What do you think?"

The chairman listened until his expression relaxed slightly, nodding slightly: "You make sense. I didn't know Tavanna was related to the Rockefeller family, so even if I don't go back to America, it's impossible for me to confront them."

He then immediately said: "Quickly, let's pull back from the underground network, and in addition, I'm going to call Steve. How can we get in touch with him?"

Given the status of the Rockefeller family and Steve's position as second-in-command, most people in the American financial circles do not have the qualifications to directly contact him, and it's normal that they don't have his contact information.

The golden-haired man hurriedly said: "Steve left a special hotline number when he publicly spoke out against us. You can contact him at any time."

"Quick, give me the number!"

A minute later...

Steve, enjoying his lunch, was suddenly interrupted by a secure satellite phone ringing in front of him.

He put down his fork and pressed the answer key, speaking coldly: "Who's there?"

The voice on the other end of the phone was obsequious and frantic: "Mr. Ross, I am... I am Matt Finkelstein from the Finkelstein family..."

"Ah, Finkelstein?" Steve raised an eyebrow and asked: "Are you people from Germany?"

"Yes..." Matt Finkelstein replied respectfully: "Our family came to America in 1938."

"Hmm." Steve responded with a nod and said: "Is that on Tavanna's behalf?"

"Yes..." Matt Finkelstein blushed and said: "I didn't know you were acquainted with Tavanna, so I placed the ten billion dollar bet. I'm very sorry for any offense caused. The bet is already being recalled. Please don't worry about it. In the future, I won't make any more moves that might harm Tavanna..."

Steve spoke coldly: "Wait a minute, don't hang up yet. I'll talk to you later."

Matt hurriedly said: "Okay, okay. I'll wait for you!"

Steve silenced the satellite phone call and then dialed Ye Chen on his own phone.

After one ring, he immediately told Ye Chen: "Mr. Ye, I've found the person who placed the bet, Matt Finkelstein. The bet is also being recalled. He sounded like he was on a plane with engine noise in the background. What do you want to do about this guy? Do you need me to handle it?"

Matt hurriedly said: "Okay, okay. I'll wait for you!"

Steve silenced the satellite phone call and then dialed Ye Chen on his own phone.

After one ring, he immediately told Ye Chen: "Mr. Ye, I've found the person who placed the bet, Matt Finkelstein. The bet is also being recalled. He sounded like he was on a plane with engine noise in the background. What do you want to do about this guy? Do you need me to handle it?"

Steve replied, "He's got it easy."

Ye Chen said, "By the way, this person is so anxious to kill Tavanna, I'm sure there must be huge external pressure. I advise you to protect him and maybe he'll come in handy later on."

Steve said, "Apply pressure to him? Definitely, those influential people who usually conspire with him are behind this move. The situation in Washington is chaotic, many people are in a state of panic, and I suspect they're all connected to this. This person must have grasped quite a few secrets; leaving him as a pawn isn't impossible, but I don't know if he can cooperate." JrNovels.com
