"What do you think, Mr. Thomson?"Sean asked calmly as he sat in a chair.He disliked bickering.However, he had no choice as they were not in the army.You could solve anything in the army with a fight.However, they were out in the real world and could not avoid bickering here.After all, gossip was a fearful thing.If they did not clear this up, even Sean could not survive in River City, no matter how capable he was.Therefore, he had to sit here even though he thought it was a waste of time.James, Jon, Gordon...Many people were reluctant to speak.Sean was about to lose his reputation and become a public enemy of River City.Who would have expected Sean to do that?He turned the situation around in an instant."Sean, you're trying to divert our attention."No matter what you say, you stole Zimmer Corporation's money!"Jon panicked and began shouting in a fluster.However, the more he did it, the worse he looked."What makes you think Mr. Lennon transferred your
The crowd frowned slightly, but they said nothing.Sean glanced meaningfully at Gordon."Are you calling black as white?"Sean snorted coldly. Gordon already looked demented.Therefore, was he still going to flounder around and make himself look worse?"I saw it."Bill was the first to raise his hand in the silence."What are you?"I told you. It'll only take a minute to get rid of you!"Gordon suddenly reached out and pointed at Bill."You!"Bill gritted his teeth slightly and could not help looking down.After all, people from the underworld feared government officials the most.If Gordon flexed his identity to fight them, Flint would be the one to suffer."I saw it too."Homer slowly raised his hand."You're all with Sean. What's the point that you saw?"I'll ask my colleagues whether anyone saw me take it?" Gordon slowly turned to look at the other members of the government.Members of the government, including Hayden, frowned slightly and did not answer.Gordo
"What?"The crowd got even more confused when they heard Sean's words.With everyone watching, a middle-aged official stepped into the wine party.Two entourages also followed the middle-aged man."Director Wool?"Someone recognized the newcomer immediately.The middle-aged man was the director of the River City CIA, Damian Wool!He was in charge of various River City's government and justice departments.Damian was powerful in River City."Director Wool!"Everyone greeted him immediately.Hayden and the rest got up to greet him.Even Gordon had to greet Damian."Do you recognize me?"I thought there was something wrong with your eyes."Everyone looked awkward as soon as Damian spoke."It's clear in the video. There are images and sounds. How could you not see something so clear?"Of course, it doesn't matter whether you saw it."As director of the River City CIA, I fight such villains."It doesn't matter that you didn't see. I saw it."Many people were shocked when
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
