Chapter 723 Barely An Entrepreneur
Despite the standing hairs on the back of John's neck, John reminded himself about how Donald wassomeone Theron had tricked into the warehouse. Hence, a person like Donald could not possibly besmart.
That was how John quickly recollected himself. With a confident smile he often used to fool the otherstudents, he said to Donald, “Not only do I know them, but they're even my students.”
“I see,” Donald muttered as he took out his phone.
The smile on John's face froze.novelbin
What is the meaning of him taking out his phone?
The next thing John saw was Donald making an international call.
By then, Theron realized something was amiss as well. He hastily asked, “Donald, who are you calling?And it's an international call too.”
“Skovos, of course. When I brought him fishing, he never told me that he studied under a teacher in ourcountry.”
What? He's calling Skovos?
John felt a stab of fear.
Meanwhile, Theron froze for a second before he put on a straight face and warned Donald grimly,“Donald, if you doubt Mr. Johnstone's identity, feel free to check his resume online. There's no need foryou to be so snarky here. Who do you think Skovos is? He's one of the top ten billionaires in
Anglandur. I'm the only one here who can contact him, so why are you taking out your phone andpretending to make a call to him?”
He was certain that Donald was only pretending to call Skovos by dialing a random overseas number.
After all, he had seen other students pulling the same move before.
If Theron were one of the gullible individuals, he would not have lasted in his line of work until then.
At the same time, Tracy mocked, “Don't say that, Darling. At the very least, Donald's the vice presidentof Dragon Fide Corporation and the abandoned son of the Campbell clan. What if he really does havea way to contact Skovos?”
Theron sneered. “If he succeeds in contacting Skovos, I'll give him five hundred thousand and ask himto teach me how to run a business instead.”
Right after those words fell from Theron's lips, the sound of a person speaking in Ustranasion traveledout of the speakers.
Donald replied in fluent Ustranasion, “Gerkin, is it? It's Donald Campbell, and I'm calling from Pollerton.I have someone here who claims to be Skovos' teacher. His name is John. Do you know him?”
The very second John heard the name “Gerkin,” he nearly went on his knees before Donald.
Skovos' butler was named Gerkin.
That was something very few people knew about. Unless Donald truly met Skovos and became goodfriends with the latter, there was no way he would have known that Skovos' butler was called Gerkin.
“When did my employer have a teacher named John?” Gerkin sounded baffled. “Can you ask him totake the call? I can verify this for you, Mr. Campbell.”
Donald passed his phone to John. “Come on. Have a talk with your student's butler.”
With the former staring at him, John had no choice but to steel himself and uttered, “It's been a while,Mr. Gerkin.”
He could only pray hard that Gerkin did not remember who he was. That way, he would be able to foolhis way through the moment.
Unfortunately, Gerkin was silent for a while after hearing John's voice.
“It's you, John Johnstone. You're a bold one, aren't you? How dare you call yourself my employer'steacher and try to fool Mr. Campbell? I remember that you have other businesses in Anglandur, right?I'll be reporting this to my employer, so you'd best offload your company's shares as soon as possible.”
Gerkin's words dumbfounded John.
In comparison to Skovos, he could barely be considered an entrepreneur.
Kicking John out of Anglandur would be a piece of cake for Skovos if that was what the latter wanted.
