Emerson looked startled for a split second before he rang the call bell.
“Get the head of the patent department here.”
Several seconds later, an elegantly dressed woman in her 40s hurried over to Emerson’s office.
“This is Mr. Laine from Somerland. He wants to purchase the half of the patent the corporation owns for
MP3 players. Is there such a thing?”
Jasper felt slightly disgruntled when he heard Emerson’s question.
He had been rushing to places for the MP3 player patent and was close to using up all his tricks and
contacts.
However, in Sentel Corporation, the MP3 player patent was not even worth remembering for these
higher-ups.
The woman was skilled in her job and immediately began explaining how the patent had come about.
After understanding everything that had happened, Emerson got her to leave before he smiled at
Jasper. He said, “Sorry about that, Mr. Laine. We have tens of thousands of patents registered under
the company’s name, which is why I can’t possibly remember everything.”
“I understand.”
Jasper, who was thinking to himself that JW still had a long way to go, answered calmly.
“I’ve now understood the situation. You heard it too. The legal department has been gearing up to sue
both the patent office and Damond Golding. After all, this is a loss for the company as well.”
“I understand, which is why I’m now offering you a way to get rid of it once and for all,” Jasper said with
a smile.
“By buying it? Forgive me for being straightforward but there’s no use in buying only 50% of the
ownership as it’s not entitled to any priorities, Mr. Laine. Even Sentel Corporation would have to resolve
the situation via legal means… Or have you made an agreement of sorts with Damond Golding, Mr.
Laine?”
As the president of Sentel Group, Emerson’s train of thought was extremely sharp and agile. He only
needed a couple of minutes to come up with a hypothesis that was very close to the truth.
Jasper was not planning to hide matters as the other party would find out sooner or later. He took the
contract and showed it to Emerson.
After looking through its contents, Emerson said in surprise, “Mr. Laine, this contract is extremely
disadvantageous to you.”
“I’ve requested Damond to sign it. He had no reason to say no to such a bargain. However, you can
just think of it as preparing your bait before you fish,” Jasper said as he smiled.
Emerson laughed and said, “Thank you for your honesty, Mr. Laine. You didn’t need to tell me about
this, but I can sense your sincerity from your actions.
“To be honest, I would be happy to see Damond suffer losses too. After all, he’s considered a traitor to
the company.”
‘You were the one who kicked him out of the company during the layoffs that happened when you
suffered an economic crisis, and yet, you’re calling him a traitor.’
Jasper muttered sarcastically to himself but put on a surprised expression.
“So, do we have a deal?”
Emerson smiled and said, “In theory, there should be no problem. After all, the company is not
interested in doing much with the MP3 players, and it would take a long time to file a lawsuit. If you’re
interested, Mr. Laine, we would be happy to sell you our half of the patent.
“Since you’re a friend of Ms. Sylphie, you’ll be given special treatment in regards to the price. How
does 20 million US dollars for a buyout sound?”
In all honesty, 20 million US dollars was extremely cheap.
However, to Sentel Corporation, they would have earned 20 million US dollars for absolutely nothing.
After all, all Sentel Corporation had done to obtain this patent was provide some equipment. The
thought process and skills that went into this all belonged to Damond Golding. All they had to do was
sit back and enjoy the benefits it brought.
Jasper did not dwell too much on these problems and immediately agreed.
“Deal.”
Emerson smiled as he stood and said while shaking Jasper’s hand, “You’re a very frank person, Mr.
Laine. I’ll arrange to have the relevant information prepared as soon as possible.”
