Chapter 21 Pleasant Cooperation

"Because of me?" a touch of flush was scratched across Kelly's pretty face.

"Yes, you helped me at the hotel yesterday. So, I owe you a favor. I'll return the favor by giving you a hand today." Martin said with a smile.

"I only lent a hundred dollars for you yesterday, but now you are returning far more than that." Kelly said shyly.

Although Kelly wants to work with Gold Group, she's also having second thoughts. Because of her, Martin might lose a lot of money, she's already feeling guilty.

"It's all right. It's nothing really." Martin replied with a smiled.

"However, my company is relatively small and its production capacity may not be able to keep up." Kelly said with a worried tone.

"Well no worries, Gold Group will invest fifteen million dollars to your company. It will be used to expand your production capacity." Martin replied to her.

"Invest fifteen million dollars to us?!"

Abel and Kelly were stunned by his sudden news.

"I, I'm not dreaming, am I?" Abel gulped and felt like he was dreaming.

Kelly cannot believe Martin's words and looked at him blankly.

If they invest fifteen million dollars to their company and they cooperate well with Gold Group, then their company will eventually prosper.

"Uncle Mike, you are not dreaming about the investment. I will ask Michael's general manager to implement it as soon as possible." Martin said with reassurance.

Kelly couldn't help but ask, "Martin, can you tell me the real reason? Are you really doing this just because I paid a meal for you?"

Martin shook his head and said, "No, it's because I saw your kindness and your father's integrity, I need a partner like you."

"Thank you, Martin! Thank you so much for giving our family this opportunity. My father and I will try our best to do a great job." Kelly thanked him with a serious face.

Abel also nodded, "Yes! Mr. James, rest assured that we will not let you down, we will prove that your investment is worth it!"

Abel had always wanted to fulfill his ambition, but lack of money and connections hinders him. Now, he can finally do his best with the help of Gold Group.

Martin smiled at them, "Abel, I hope that you won't let me down now. You will be working a lot in the office and on business trips, would it be alright for you to be away and spend less time for your daughter?"

"Of course!" Abel smiled awkwardly.

Abel knows very well that many people try to be friends with Martin but fails to catch his attention. He is still stunned that Martin is helping them.

Kelly blushed when she heard what Martin said.

Martin stood up. "Well, our deal is settled then. I will ask Michael's general manager to discuss with you the specific cooperation plan."

"Yes! Mr. James!" Michael, who next to him nodded politely.

The party ended, Martin felt good for getting rid of Regan and also felt happy for meeting Kelly again, who helped him yesterday.

Martin's cellphone suddenly rang, and he had a hint that this might be Morgan.

Martin did not dare to snub and quickly answered the call.

"Hello, Grandpa." Martin greeted.

"Martin, I'm at your house right now. What time will you be back? There are some things we need to discuss in person." Morgan answered.

"Grandpa, you're in the house right now?" Martin was a little surprised.

"That's right." Morgan replied.

"Okay, I'll be right back." Martin responded and quickly made his way home.

Martin thought that his Grandpa's sudden arrival must be because of something important.

His Grandpa gave him fifteen million dollars last week. Martin originally intended to buy a villa for a change of good living environment for his mother. But his mother refused for she had lived in their house for years and her memory of her late husband lies there, so she did not want to leave. Martin bought some new furniture instead to make the house more beautiful.

As soon as he arrived, he saw his Grandpa waiting for him inside.

"Martin, come and sit down."

When he saw Martin enter the door, he got up enthusiastically and pulled him to his side and they sat down.

"Martin, how was your week? Did you have a good time?" Morgan asked with a very kind tone.

Martin grinned, "To be honest, it feels good to be rich. I had a great week."

And his week became better because his Grandpa showed up.

"That's good! That's good!" Morgan smiled and paused, he added, "Well, you know, I've been observing you this week, Morgan."

"Observing me?" Martin was surprised for he did not even notice.

"Yes, I've been watching you this week. To be honest, your performance greatly exceeded my expectations." Morgan proudly said.

"Really?" Martin asked with a wry smile.

"I'm actually surprised. As soon as you took charge of the company you were able to rule out dissidents by means of thunder and win over the hearts of the people in an ingenious way, which is a bit of my youthful style." Morgan said with a smile and a chuckle.

"Well, really?" Martin scratched his head sheepishly.

Morgan has been curious about something for a while and he finally asked, "By the way, Martin, I have a question. When you were kidnapped, how did you convince them to let you go?"

Morgan's secretary stated, "Sir, your Grandfather felt that something was going to happen to you that day, so he sent people to secretly follow and protect you in any case of trouble. They saw you get caught and they followed the car that took you. But to our surprise, you just went straight out from your kidnapper's car like it was nothing."

What Morgan is talking about is the scene where the Joseph Family ordered to kidnap and assassinate Martin.

Martin just smiled and replied, "Grandpa, is there anything that money cannot solve? I gave the kidnappers $1.5 million and they naturally let me go, they even revealed who was behind it."

"I see. There is no problem that cannot be solved by money. Good point." Morgan burst out laughing with a sudden realization.

Morgan was impressed with what Martin did; it was a lot better than he actually expected. He did not set a high expectation from Martin in the first place and just hoped that he could be able to keep the family business in the future. But it turned out that Martin's excellence is beyond his imagination.

"Martin, in view of your excellent performance, I'll give you another hundred fifty million dollars for pocket money. In addition, if you encounter any place where you need my help, just call me. Generally speaking, on the boundary of California, no one would dare to mess with you when they know my name." Morgan said with reassurance and a smile.

Morgan immediately pulled out his cell phone and transferred the said amount to Martin's account.

Martin saw the phone's notice. "The income of your commercial bank card ending with 4527 is $150,000,000"

He was shocked the moment he saw the number of zeros. It's only been a week but his Grandpa has already rewarded him millions.

Over the course of the week, Martin saw how useful money can be, so he did not refuse his Grandpa's reward.

"Thank you so much Grandpa" He said with a bright smile on his face.

"I'd like to introduce you to important people." Morgan suddenly became serious and looked towards the door and exclaimed. "Lone Wolf, come in!"

A dark shadow flashed by and a figure of a man appeared in front of Martin.

The man is thin and has a ferocious scar on his face, he has a frightening aura. It's Martin's first time to see such terrible eyes.

"Sir!" The Lone Wolf greeted with a hoarse low voice and bowed to Morgan.

"Who is he?" Martin asked Morgan
