Chapter 1002
The entire venue of the wine party was dead silent.There was no doubt that Colton's Mr. Chase was Charlie.As head of Souz River, Charlie had jurisdiction over a dozen cities.River City was only one of them.He was also the boss of people like Damian.All in all, Charlie was the most powerful person in Souz River's government.Colton held a terrifying position as an assistant and secretary to its head.A man in such a terrifying position was so polite to Sean.Then what did that make Sean?James froze while Gordon looked shocked.Jon, Old Madam Quinn, and the rest widened their eyes in disbelief.Even Homer and Chadwick, the few people who supported Sean, were dumbfounded.It was incredible.They thought a lot about what Sean would do to fight back.However, they did not expect Sean's counterattack to be so terrifying.His sudden attack was so amazing that he overpowered River City's bosses in one go.The swiftness of his domination was staggering that it was beyond w

"Take him away."Damian waved, and Gordon was immediately escorted out.People in the room lowered their heads. No one dared stop them.No one dared offend Colton as he stood there without saying a word."I'm sorry for interrupting the wine party."You may proceed. I will come again if anything happens."Colton nodded slightly and left.Damian and Colton were gone as soon as they came.In the twinkling of an eye, it was as if they were never there.However, the wine party's atmosphere changed dramatically.Again, a guy in Colton's position would not do anything too brash.He would not speak too straightforwardly either.Though Colton made it seem simple, it was not as simple as they thought.It was just like how Colton had never expressed any firm opinions since the beginning.He had only greeted Sean. However, people automatically thought that Sean and Colton were close.Therefore, the way people treated Sean at this point was quite different from what it was earlier.

It was true that relationships among people too often depended on money.Sean was like a hot property many people sought after.Even Samuel wanted to give Sean a toast at Old Madam Quinn's behest.James and Jon could only watch. There was nothing they could do."Ahem. Mr... Mr. Lennon, here's to you too."Samuel held his glass and was going to clink it with Sean.Swoosh!However, Sean slowly moved his glass away."Do you deserve it?"Sean's blunt remark made Samuel blush.However, Sean was unprepared to give the Quinn family any face.Quinn Corporation was different from other businesses.Sean and the Quinn family's dispute could not be explained in a few words.Besides, Sean had given them many chances. He gave them another chance just before entering the wine party.However, they did not cherish it either!They wanted to trample over Sean when they saw him down and out.Seeing Sean gaining momentum, they wanted to suck up to him.Did they think Sean was that magnanim

"One more step?"Homer and Chadwick froze at that.Sean had overpowered Jen-Bond Holdings and the Zimmer family.Was that not the end of it?What else did he want to do?Sean slowly turned his head and glanced across everyone's faces.Siding with Sean when he was in trouble meant they could be trusted.He was content to have these people around him.Quality over quantity.Sean did not require his men to be powerful, just loyal.That alone was enough.The Larson family, the Summers family, and people like Flint won Sean's trust after this confrontation with Jen-Bond Holdings.However, they had no idea how much gaining Sean's trust would benefit them.Since he trusted them, Sean would not hide his plan from them.Sean slowly reached out and pointed to one of the tallest buildings in River City."I want to take over River City."The remark shocked everyone.It was the first time Sean revealed his ambition in front of Homer and the rest.Zander knew Sean wanted the River

"Alright, there are no outsiders now."We're in the same team. Just say whatever's on your mind."Jon glanced at James before saying to the crowd.However, no one spoke after he finished speaking.Many people did not even want to stay here, but they dared not offend James, so they had no choice but to bite the bullet and stay here for the time being."Since no one wants to talk, I'll talk."James stood on the stage again, facing the crowd."Firstly, Sean is a disgrace to River City's business circle. It's a fact!"He caused a lot of trouble too."It just didn't occur to me that he knew someone as important as Mr. Freeman."James watched the crowd's expression as he spoke.However, everyone present was cunning.Therefore, they stayed calm, so James would not even know what they were thinking."But I'm not afraid of him even if he knows Mr. Freeman."I must banish him from River City for River City business circle's betterment."I also believe Mr. Freeman is a man of integ

"Carry on, everyone. I've got something more exciting for you later."James waved his hand, and the atmosphere gradually lightened.However, only those ignorant knew full well how ignorant they were....At the same time.River City Larson Residence."Old Master, I... I feel like I took a big gamble today, you know?"And it's a big gamble with no chance of winning."I didn't expect Mr. Lennon to intimidate everyone in the end."Homer sat in a mahogany chair and heaved a deep sigh."Tell me all about it."Old Master Larson found it hard to believe as well.He valued affection and personal loyalty. He thought Sean had given him a second chance at life by curing his illness.Therefore, he would never leave Sean in his hour of need.However, he did not expect Sean to win the business war!After Homer elaborated, Old Master Larson slowly let out a long breath."Mr. Freeman's presence is key, but it's not the main key."Mr. Lennon nailed them by playing the video."Old Mast

Zander froze for two seconds before turning around and leading the person inside.Sean picked up a newspaper, unfolded it slowly, and put it on the table.A group of people followed Zander into the office.There were close to thirty people.However, Zander was confused at the moment.It was because they were River City's government officials.Hayden was among them.Were these the people Sean had been waiting for?However, why was Sean waiting for them?Besides that, Zander could not figure out why these people were there.Were they not attending the wine party with James?"Mr. Lennon."Hayden greeted Sean quietly.The other middle-aged men and women greeted Sean too."Have a seat."Sean calmly picked up a teacup and took a sip, still looking at the newspaper carefully.Hayden and the others looked around and met each other's eyes awkwardly.There were only two chairs in the office besides Sean's swivel chair.Two chairs. Who was going to sit, and who was not going to

Mr. Liam Zielinski left the Lennon Group building, upset.The cold breeze outside sobered Liam up.It also made him regret his impulsive decision.However, he gritted his teeth and headed for his car to save himself from humiliation.As soon as he got to the car, he ran into a group of more than twenty people.They were members of the River City government like him."Mr. Zielinski, where are you going?"A middle-aged man asked Liam immediately."Sean doesn't seem to want to talk, and I can't stand him."Liam replied with a cold face and an irritated tone.However, he still stood outside the car and did not get in."Mr. Zielinski, you're being stupid!"Beggars can't be choosers."Don't you understand what's going on?"The middle-aged man shook his head slightly and spoke."What's going on?"I don't believe Sean can rule River City."Liam's heart was still full of doubt."He might not be able to do it now, but what about later?"The middle-aged man's question made Lian
