Don't Fall For Me, CEO-Chapter 1107: Not Worth Mentioning?

"How did you know the Sea Blue Whisper is in my hands?"

Joseph was both surprised and annoyed.

This set, the Sea Blue Whisper, is a family heirloom of the Quinn Family, encrusted with large blue diamonds, and is incredibly valuable.

Back when Laura Quinn returned from Esteria, there was a time when Joseph pushed the Quinn Family to the brink, nearly causing them to go bankrupt.

To help the Quinn Group through this crisis, Quinn and Laura Quinn had no choice but to decide to sell off the Sea Blue Whisper.

The money from selling the Sea Blue Whisper got the Quinn Group through the rough patch.

Joseph was furious when he found out, but he eventually tracked down the buyer and bought it back.

However, he’d kept the Sea Blue Whisper locked in a safe, planning to give it to Laura Quinn as a wedding gift once she married him formally.

Unexpectedly, their marriage still wasn’t set in stone, and yet someone had already set their sights on the Sea Blue Whisper.

"There’s no need for you to inquire about my intelligence source." Kyle Keaton refused to disclose the source of his information.

He only asked Joseph, "Hand over the Sea Blue Whisper, and I’ll consider it."

"That set of jewelry is priceless!" Joseph felt he might need a few blood pressure pills.

He never really had issues with high blood pressure, but ever since his interactions with Kyle Keaton, his forehead had been throbbing.

"But compared to your Marsden Family, it should be insignificant, right?"

Kyle Keaton wasn’t willing to back down an inch.

"You’re practically no different from a robber."

Joseph didn’t expect that Kane, who seemed refined to the core, would have such a decisive and forceful grandson.

"That’s still better than you taking people to the estate by force."

Kyle Keaton sneered coldly.

Joseph: "..."

Was he talking about how he’d forced Laura Quinn to live in their Marsden Estate, also akin to a robber’s action?

It’s infuriating!

But it’s the truth!

He couldn’t argue against it at all.

"But I don’t think this level of public opinion is enough for you to take the Sea Blue Whisper from me without any cost."

Joseph wanted to negotiate, hoping Kyle Keaton would offer some real money for an exchange.

Although it would still be a loss-making deal, at least he would get some funds to alleviate the Marsden Family’s financial issues.

Unexpectedly, someone had even less of a bottom line when it came to exploiting others.

"If Mr. Joseph thinks this level of public opinion isn’t worth a Sea Blue Whisper, I can create more opinion for you. For instance, the recent invasion of your smart home system..."

If Kyle Keaton were merely talking about the Marsden Family’s gossip, Joseph wouldn’t be so nervous that even his knuckles gripping the phone would turn white.

Indeed, Joseph was nervous.

He’d ordered strict secrecy about the invasion of the smart home system to prevent it from leaking out.

Otherwise, the Marsden smart home system’s promise of absolute security, which previously swept across Desrozin City, would certainly be heavily criticized.

Joseph could almost foresee that if this news were spread by the Descendant of the Kanes, their Marsden Family’s digital appliance company would face a devastating blow.

"Who exactly leaked this information to you?"

Joseph nearly gritted his teeth.

The person who leaked this information was undoubtedly trying to ruin the entire Marsden Family.

Unexpectedly, the man on the other side of the phone asked in return, "You’re anxious?"

Joseph was puzzled, just before he heard the man chuckle silently, "So it seems to be true. Well, then I know how to elevate public opinion to the point where it’s worth a Sea Blue Whisper."

Joseph nearly gritted his teeth again.

Was he being tricked?

Or was it to protect the person who leaked the information?

But regardless of which, once this news got out, Marsden Family’s digital appliances and smart home systems would come under intense attack.

So, after careful consideration, Joseph could only speak, "Fine, the Sea Blue Whisper is yours. But..."
