The assistant chairman wore a delighted expression and dared not delay a single moment.
“However, it’s not that Kaymaroon doesn’t have any problems. We found out that they’re facing a very
high risk of getting themselves involved with a huge debt.
“First of all, each of their supermarkets closes their cyclical accounts with their suppliers every six
months, which is four months more than the standard compared to other businesses of the same
industry. Changing the period of each cycle to half a year is still in the midst of being approved by the
public. Regarding this point, because of their large sales volume and strong ability to conduct sales, all
the suppliers can only go along with it.
“Every half a year, they will have to spend at least two billion for the payment. According to our
investigation, it’ll be time for them to make their payment after another half a month, at most.”
Jasper tapped on the documents while listening and said, “You’re saying that currently, the assets in
Kaymaroon’s account are actually not adequate to make the payments to the suppliers? Even after
taking into account all of the income from all the supermarkets for this coming half a month, they’re just
barely managing?”
The assistant chairman nodded and said, “Basically that’s it. Also, they got a 600 million loan from
Commercial Bank, which they have three years to pay back. Beginning next year will be their last term
to pay back the remaining amount which is 220 million including interest.
“According to the data from the investigation, Kaymaroon also has a very serious debt to bear from the
private loans they took. The total amount of it is still under investigation, but we can be sure it’s more
than 800 million, which is a very heavy burden.”
“A company which has a market value of four billion turns out to have a debt of 1.4 billion, and from this
amount, at least 800 million were taken from private loans with high interests. Sebastian really is one
daredevil,” said Jasper calmly.
“Initially, Kaymaroon was just a huge company with a strong ability to gain profits, but the main issue
with the company lies with the person named Sebastian. He’s a gambler. He’s famous for being a
brazen boss in Owl City. He goes to Owl City once a month. Each trip he makes, he either wins or
loses billions of dollars.”
Jasper’s brow was slightly raised, and he circled the word ‘gamble’ on the information sheet.
“I remember he has someone backing him up back in Swallow Capital. Did you manage to look that
up?” asked Jasper calmly.
Ten years ago, during the battle between Dawson and Sebastian, someone from Swallow Capital
offered a helping hand to Sebastian by providing funds at the eleventh hour. Jasper would be sure to
include that point in as well.
“I’ve looked into it.”
The assistant chairman did not let Jasper down and said with a low voice, “It’s mentioned on the very
last page.”
Jasper immediately flipped to the very last page of the document. He looked at the contents on it and
an expression that no one expected to see was plastered on Jasper’s face.
“The Combe family?! Hendrik Combe?!”
The assistant chairman nodded and said, “Hendrik and Sebastian have a relationship that no one is
aware of. They’re brothers-in-law. Sebastian‘s wife and Hendrik’s wife are siblings.
“Also, it was Sebastian’s nephew, Hector, who introduced him to Owl City. They both don’t just share a
simple nephew-uncle relationship but they’re also gambling buddies. Or else, how would a brat from
the village come to know about places like Owl City?”
After more than ten minutes, the assistant chairman left the hotel suite politely. After closing the door
cautiously, he left the scene joyfully.
In the suite, Jasper gradually squinted his eyes and dialed Hector’s number.
After half an hour, Hector, with a perturbed look on his face, and Jacob slowly made their way to the
entrance of the hotel room.
“Brother, Jasper is looking for us, but what’s the reason behind it? Haven’t we settled the grudge
between us?
“Even Erick Turner was squashed by him. I heard that it was Brad Turner who showed up in the end
and paid huge compensation to Jasper. Only then was the issue resolved. I’m really scared of him
now.”
Hector said with a teary face.
Jacob was calm and said, “You’re the one who he called. How am I supposed to know when you don’t
even know the reason? Anyway, let’s just go in. Remember, we need to behave appropriately later.
Don’t go around calling him by his name. You must greet him as Mr. Laine!”
As the brothers were talking, the sound of the hotel room door being knocked on was heard.
