CHAPTER 1016 WERE YOU NOT COCKY JUST NOW

Nathan summarized the incident, then said to Russell Crow and the leaders in an icy tone, "| heard that you're all closely affiliated with him and because all of you are covering for him, he's not afraid of the repercussions of not paying off his debts!"

Russell and the rest were shocked and furious when they heard that.

They knew Jonas, but they were closer with Nathan.

Russell glared at Jonas and questioned him coldly, "Jonas, since when are we that close? How come we don't know about that?" Jonas started to sweat profusely as he stammered.

Russel continued, "I won't look further into this incident for now, but you must pay off the debts you owe Cross Group immediately. Otherwise, I'll ask the authorities to freeze all your personal and company assets!"

Jonas trembled in fear as if the words struck him like lightning. If they freeze my assets, they'll definitely put them up for auction, and the selling price will be much lower than the market value. If that happens, all my efforts would be wasted!

Blood drained from his face as he begged desperately, "Mayor Crow, | owe Cross Group twenty-eight billion, so how can | pay it off immediately? Please give me another chance and extend the deadline..."

Russel snorted. "There's no use in begging me. You need to ask Mr. Cross if he's willing to give you more time." Jonas finally realized that Nathan was the one calling the shots instead of Russell and the other leaders. He stared at Nathan with a panicky expression as his voice quivered. "Mr. Cross..."

Nathan smirked. "Haha. Weren't you all that just a few moments ago? Why are you begging me now? | remember you saying that | will face the same fate as the two debt collectors whom you beat into a pulp, right?"

Thump! Overwhelmed with shock, Jonas got down on his knees instantly upon hearing that.

His entire body shivered while he pleaded, "Mr. Cross, | was wrong. Please give me a grace period given that we're both Crosses. Otherwise, they will auction off all my assets, and I'll be dead meat."

Nathan's anger subsided slightly when he saw Jonas on his knees, begging for mercy. "Alright, I'll give you another two weeks. If you don't pay up by then, you will be doomed."

Jonas agreed at once, "Sure, sure. | will pay off the debt within two weeks." After Nathan, Kylie, Russell, and the leaders had left, the only remaining people in the guest room were Jonas and his

subordinates.

He slumped into his chair in despair as he dismissed his subordinates. It took a lot of effort to scam twenty-eight billion from Cross Group! | probably won't ever make that much money in my entire life, so am | supposed to just give the money back to them?

Just as Jonas was about to give up, he had a sudden realization. Hethen muttered to himself excitedly, "I can ask the elders of the Cross Clan help me out! E pyandtornts? rood) thee ers are qualified to deal with Nathan! If Gregory Cross is willing to help me, I'll only need to fork out a few billion at most!
