James was left with no choice.The family was unwilling to improve themselves and just wanted to sit back to enjoy success.Knock, knock, knock!“David, go open the door,” said Gladys.David was not in the mood, so he glanced at Alyssa beside him. “Babe, you go get it.”Alyssa was lazy to get up and glanced at James. “You go, James.”James was depressed about their behavior.The whole family was so lazy. However, he did not say anything and went to open the door.At the door stood an elderly man in his 70s or 80s. He dressed very simply and was carrying a few bottles of good wine.“W-who are you?”James glanced at the man standing outside the door with curiosity on his face.“Y-you must be James. I’m Thea’s granduncle, Trevor Callahan.” “Oh, come inside.” James invited Trevor into the house.The whole family’s faces darkened as soon as they saw Trevor entering the house.“What’re you doing here?” Gladys asked coldly.“Gladys.” Trevor approached with the good wine bottle

Gladys was also tempted by his words.David said, “James, do you know how inferior the Pacific Group is to Eternality? Even though it is a big manufacturing factory, Granduncle already said it is on the brink of shutting down. Not only can’t he receive new orders, but the company is also in ten million debt. It won’t be that easy to take over, right? Plus, Pacific is Granduncle’s lifetime work. He might not sell it even if you offered him a huge sum.”Benjamin nodded. “That’s right. Besides, do you even have money?”“Money won’t be a problem. I’ll find a way to get it,” James said plainly.Gladys was already tempted. They would definitely be able to earn money if they managed to raise enough funds to take over Pacific Group. It had complete human resources and equipment to continue running. On top of that, Thea had connections with Celestial Group and Longevity Pharmaceuticals. Thus, they would surely be able to receive orders.It was much better than enduring the Callahans’ unf

“Granduncle, shall we go through the transfer procedure now?” Thea looked at Trevor.“Alright, alright, but… Thea, do you have the money?” Trevor’s excitement gradually calmed down, and he asked uncertainly.“You aren’t teasing me, right?”Thea glanced at James. “Give me the card.”James immediately took out his Black Dragon Card.“How much money is on it?” asked Thea.She knew that James went to the military court and was expelled because he messed with some money.Thus, she had no idea how much money he had inside the card.“It’s not a lot. Probably about two hundred million?” James stated a very conservative figure.Two hundred million was just enough to solve Thea’s current problems.One hundred million as acquisition funds for the company and one hundred million as capital.He did not want to scare Thea by saying a higher figure.“By the way, the card doesn’t even have a number, so how are you supposed to transfer the money?” Thea glanced at the Black Dragon card doubt

Calvin Oswald was a Cansington local and was naturally aware of Thea from Eternality. ‘Hasn’t Lex broken ties with Trevor already? So why is Thea here?’ Calvin wondered in his heart.He had gone to great lengths to acquire the Pacific Group.He agreed to lend the money after checking Pacific Group’s background. Pacific Group was almost his, but Thea suddenly showed up now.“Y-you must be Thea from Eternality?“Hello, Ms. Callahan. I’m Calvin from the Oswalds.” Calvin stood up and stretched his hand to greet Thea with a smile.“Hmm?”Thea glanced at him, and her beautiful face was full of indifference.Calvin pulled back his hand in embarrassment and said with an awkward smile, “Ms. Callahan, you’re not here to lend money to the Pacific Group, right?”“What do you mean ‘lend money’? We’re here to purchase and take over the Pacific Group,” said James.“What?”Larry’s expression changed when he heard this, and he shouted, “Dad, are you really selling the Pacific Group?” “I’m

The transfer process was smooth.Trevor had asked his secretary to draft up a transfer contract, while James logged into his online banking on the spot and transferred 100 million to Trevor’s personal account instantly.At the same time, James also transferred another 100 million to the company’s account as capital funds.After the transfer was successful, they signed the agreement.Trevor seemed to have grown older in an instant. He looked at Thea and patted her shoulder. “Thea, I’m leaving the Pacific Group in your hands. I wasn’t able to bring it to greater heights, but I hope you can lead it to glory in the future,” said Trevor.“Don’t worry, Granduncle. I’ll definitely lead Pacific Group to glory,” Thea vowed and reassured Trevor.“By the way…”Larry suddenly remembered and turned toward Thea to inform her, “The company employees are making a fuss at the factory and have shown up with a dozen trucks. They’re threatening to sell the factory’s equipment if they don’t receiv

Trevor understood the factory employees’ difficulties.He pointed to Thea beside him and announced, “Everybody, this is the company's new chairman, Thea. She will be in charge of the Pacific Group from today onward. Rest assured, everyone. The Pacific Group has the money now and will immediately issue everyone’s wages.”“What? Thea?” “Isn’t Thea working at Eternality? Why did she come to the Pacific Group?”“Are you telling the truth, Mr. Trevor?” The employees had their eyes fixed on Thea.“Yes, it’s the truth. Everyone will be issued their three months' wages that were delayed previously. On top of that, I’ve decided to give everyone an extra half month's wages as compensation. I promise everyone will have to work every day and might even have to work overtime when the company gets back on track! I will surely double everyone’s salary.”Everyone was excited to hear the news.Quill rushed over and bowed. “Nice to meet you, Ms. Callahan. I’m the deputy director, Quill.”“Hmm

The employees’ riot did not affect Thea’s mood.From her perspective, a company did not need such people.She would never plead for them to stay if they wanted to leave.For those who chose to stay, she would give them the best wages possible.“Ms. Callahan, I’ll show you around the factory.”Trevor made a gesture to invite her into the factory. “Dad, Grandpa!” Quinton finally had the opportunity to approach them. He looked at Thea with confusion. “Grandpa, what’s going on? How did the company chariman become Thea from Eternality?”“The Pacific Group is my life’s effort, and I could not bear to have it fall into an outsider’s hands. Thea isn’t an outsider. The company will surely flourish in Thea’s hands,” Trevor explained.“I’ll make sure to live up to your expectations, Granduncle.”The group entered the factory.“Ms. Callahan, the factory’s equipment had just been replaced not too long ago. We’ve invested more than fifty million dollars in replacing the equipment, which

A restaurant could also be opened on the food street.Any large enterprise was eligible to set up a store there and could enjoy countless benefits.The one-time fee to secure a spot in Transgenerational New City, such as in the food street, was also terrifyingly high.They had never dreamed about entering Transgenerational New City.“Are you serious, Ms. Callahan?” Quinton was excited.“We’ll give it a shot. It might or might not work.” Honestly, Thea was not confident.When she was in Eternality she had been preparing and working to expand the business to increase the company’s qualifications and secure a spot in the Transgenerational New City. She was less sure about the chances since Pacific Group was much more inferior to Eternality.However, it was her dream.It was also the dream of every business.Entering Transgenerational New City would mean gaining the protection of the Transgenerational Group, and there would be plenty of benefits.On top of that, she felt like she
