Chapter 182

The next morning, Robert was sitting in his office when someone knocked on the door. Jacob walked in.

"Mr. Zabinski, I have something to tell you."

Jacob greeted Robert in a respectful manner.

Robert frowned."Mr. Zahn, is there any problem with the holiday resort?"

Jacob nodded."Yes. We have problems with the funding..."

Robert frowned again."How much money do we have in our bank account?"

Jacob secretly rejoiced when he saw how exasperated Robert looked. "I just checked with the finance department. One of our projects just started two days ago. Our working capital now is less than 15 million dollars."

Robert tapped his fingers on the table."Is that all we have now? I'll find a solution to this. Don't worry. We'll have to change the supplier for the raw materials."

"Huh?" Jacob was taken aback. The currentsupplier was giving him a lot of kickbacks. He did not want to change suppliers.

Robert sighed."Mr. Zahn, you're a long-time employee of Zabinski Group. I'll be honest with you. We have limited funds now, and we can't afford to use top-grade materials anymore. Since our products are top quality, we can afford to use lower-grade materials for everything else. The design may not be as good, but that's fine as long as we don't have any issues with safety and the environment."

"Okay. I get it, Mr. Zabinski." Jacob nodded andleft the office.

However, Jacob did not walk away immediately. Instead, he pressed his ear against the door and strained to listen for any conversation inside the office.

"Hello, Mr. Somas, it's me, Robert. Yes,I wouldlike to take another loan. As you know, the holiday resort project costs 150 million dollars. I can use the shares of Zabinski Group as collateral. Yes, that's right."

Jacob heard what Robert said.

Jacob nodded, pleased with the information. He then reported what Robert said to Kendrick.

After pretending to make the call, Robert continued with his work.

When it was about time to get off work, Naomi suddenly called Robert.

"Hello, Naomi."

"Robert,I just received an invitation. It's theengagement party of Kendrick and Marilyn."Naomi sounded curious."I wasn't in Yrinas earlier and only heard about what happened to Matthew. Did you break up with Marilyn because of this matter?"

"Is it all over the grapevine?" Robert smiledbitterly.

"You smashed my bar into pieces earlierbecause of her. See what's happened now? You've broken off with her. I've suffered a loss of hundreds of thousands of dollars because of this. Where are you now? Let's have a chat."

"I'm in the office."

"Wait for me."

Half an hourl ater, Naomi appeared in the Zabinski Group, wearing a white spaghetti-strap dress and black stockings. Her long and willowy legs attracted a lot of attention. Those who saw her wished they could caress her slender limbs.

Many people turned to look at Naomi as she walked past them. The girls were filled with

envy.

All the men had one thought.

Naomi was one enchanting vixen, as Robert always described her.

Naomi was daring in the way she dressed. She was also bold and unafraid to speak her mind. Otherwise, she would not have tried to flirt with Robert blatantly when she first met him.

As the door was pushed open, the curvaceous woman appeared in front of Robert.

One's imagination could run wild seeing her in the white slip dress and black stockings.

Robert felt powerless looking at her. "Naomi, do you have to dress in such a way?"

"Don't all men like this?" Naomi spoke withouthesitation as she sat on Robert's desk.
