"Why didn't Mr. Henderson answer my calls in the early morning?" Joyce questioned.
"Why should I answer them?" Justin asked coldly in return.
"Why is Mr. Henderson answering now?" Joyce's tone wasn't too friendly either.
"Ms. Knowles, if you don't have anything important to do, I can hang up anytime." Justin grunted.
"Wait." Joyce believed that today’s Justin was cold-hearted enough to do that.
It was clear enough from his determination not to answer her calls in the early hours of the morning.
He had changed. He only cared about the people he cared about, and only cared about the things he cared about. He was so caught up in his revenge that he couldn't help himself.
That mild gentleman was gone.
"I heard you're raising $3 billion for Otis? Do you know what he needs that money for?" Joyce asked.
"Not sure. I never ask the partners, exactly what they need the money for." Justin said back faintly.
"What if he can't pay it back?" Joyce pursued.
"I don't care about a mere 3 billion either." Justin's tone was emotionless, as if the money was just numbers to him.
Joyce felt speechless. That was indeed the way those bankers talked. She changed the way, "Mr. Henderson, I know you do not care about money, 300 million for charity, and 3 billion investment in Otis, they are not the same thing at all. Have you thought about it that you might hurting someone with the money."
Justin seemed to be silent for a moment.
"It's amazing how much Ms. Knowles has cared about other people." Finally, he was sort of sarcastic.
"Can it still be stopped?" Joyce asked in a feeble voice.
They then ran towards the living room. She was already dragged inside by Luther before she could step into the living room.
"Look, the radio and TV stations have all been controlled by the military. Just now it was still some cartoon, and suddenly all the channels have been all switched to the military news room."
When Joyce heard this, she only felt alarmed and had a bad feeling.
She looked at the TV, and sure enough, it was live broadcast.
Otis was seen wearing his official military uniform. Embraced by several senior officers, he sat down in front of the live camera.
Immediately afterwards, he began to deliver an important speech to the nation, and indeed the world.
"Due to a special and unexpected situation within the military, I shall take over the military immediately."
