Even Aicken could hardly believe his ears, staring at Jake in stunned disbelief—let alone Stella.
Stella’s voice trembled as she asked, “How much did you say?”
Jake replied patiently, “Fifty billion.”
She blinked, utterly incredulous. “Mr. Jake, are you serious? Is this some kind of joke?”
Jake gave a calm smile. “If you don’t believe me, Ms. Cameron, we can sign the contract right now.”
Stella pressed further, “Besides the ten percent commission, does your employer have any other conditions?”
Jake shook his head with a reassuring grin. “None at all.”
After a brief hesitation, Stella asked, “Mr. Jake, may I know your employer’s name? Which corporation does he own?”
Jake’s gaze flickered briefly, almost imperceptibly, toward Joshua before he answered, “You may simply call him… Mr. J.”
Stella frowned. “Mr. J?”
Jake explained, “For various reasons, my employer isn’t able to reveal his identity at the moment. I hope you can understand.”
Stella could hardly suppress a scoff. What kind of investor refuses to even give their name or background? Was this really trustworthy? After all, we’re not talking about a few thousand dollars—we’re talking billions.
She even wondered if this was some kind of setup, a ploy by Leonard or Sellers to sabotage her.
Jake seemed to read her thoughts. “Rest assured, Ms. Cameron. There is absolutely no risk with this investment. If you’re unconvinced, I can transfer half the deposit upfront.”
Stella hesitated. “Aren’t you going to evaluate the company first?”
