Chapter 510: Chapter 510: Ancestral Skill
Even though Susan Carter silently complained about July Quinn countless times in her heart, the fact proved that July Quinn’s argument was still effective.
Look at that person who persistently believed Susan Carter was Gallup Tom and was trembling in fear, but now is a bit calmer.
"Indeed, it seems this gentleman only bears a resemblance to Gallup Tom."
"Alright, I have some matters to attend to later, let’s quickly sign the contract."
July Quinn feared that procrastinating might cause unexpected problems, so she straightforwardly urged to sign the contract as soon as possible.
"Alright, this is the casino operation contract drafted according to Miss Quinn’s requirements. Please have a look, Miss Quinn."
Rhonda Hale also worried about unexpected changes, so she urged the secretary to bring up the drafted contract.
"The contract looks good in all aspects, but I still want to add one more clause."
July Quinn quickly skimmed through the terms of the contract. Although Rhonda Hale’s draft improved the percentage by three percent compared to what July had talked about on the phone before, July Quinn still gave approval.
Therefore, when July Quinn proposed to add a clause, Rhonda Hale did not directly reject: "Please, Miss Quinn."
"I detest those who embezzle public funds, so I want to add one more clause to this agreement: if anyone privately uses money from the casino’s operating account, they must compensate a hundredfold of my investment!"
"A hundredfold? Isn’t that excessive?" Rhonda Hale’s semi-permanent unibrow slightly furrowed.
This Miss Quinn, who made it onto Angela’s members’ millionaire list, announced in the industry half a month ago that she would invest in a casino in Esteria that integrates gambling and leisure entertainment.
Casinos are the most lucrative investment projects, but they must hold officially recognized qualification certificates.
Over the years, many in Esteria saw potential in this area, yet none succeeded in opening one.
However, this Miss Quinn is quite different. Not only did she immediately obtain an officially recognized qualification certificate, but she also put forth a hundred-billion investment.
It is rumored that she resides in Aethelgard, so the casino she opens in Esteria requires a partner to help manage it.
As soon as this news spread, many targeted this big opportunity.
Rhonda Hale was one of them. After much inquiry and self-recommendation, and finding several collaborators, she finally caught Miss Quinn’s eye.
If you embezzle public funds, you must compensate a hundred billion times.
The thought of that amount makes Rhonda Hale terrified.
"Miss Hale wouldn’t embezzle public funds, what are you worried about? Or do you mean to say that Miss Hale is actually using the guise of being my partner but is actually targeting my investment fund?"
July Quinn’s expression turned cold with the latter sentence.
"If that’s the case, then forget it." July Quinn stood up to leave.
Others hurriedly tried to keep her.
"No, Miss Hale doesn’t have that kind of intention. Her father is the first Divine Doctor of Esteria, with great prestige. If she dared to do such a thing, her father would definitely beat her."
"Indeed, Miss Hale was raised single-handedly by Dr. Hale, how could she do such a thing?"
Listening to these people praising Simon Hale, July Quinn’s lips curled contemptuously in a corner others could not see.
Stealing others’ belongings in secret is practically a family tradition for the Hale Family.
If Simon Hale knew Rhonda Hale embezzled public funds, he wouldn’t beat her; he’d probably loudly applaud her.
Only these blind fools keep talking up the Hale Family!
"Miss Quinn, I don’t know which of my words just now caused you this misunderstanding, I am truly sorry. But I really don’t have any intention of embezzling public funds."
Rhonda Hale also tried to retain July Quinn.
Aside from that, to prove her innocence, she agreed to the clause that embezzling funds would lead to compensation of a hundredfold of the investment amount.
