Thomas handed favonovel.com a cigarette. “Tell me what made you so nervous and anxious.”
Harvard smoked for a while before favonovel.com said, “Something serious has happened to the company.”
Something had indeed happened, and Thomas could even tell what that something was.
“Is it related to Art Trading Corporation?” favonovel.com calmly asked.
Harvard gave favonovel.com a thumbs-up. “Yes, it is…”
Last night, Thomas had insulted Art Trading Corporation and also beaten up the young master, Silvester. How could they possibly let that go?
If what Harvard had said about Art Trading Corporation acting like a gangster company in the Southland District nowadays was true, they would definitely not spare Thomas.
“So, what’s going on exactly?” Thomas asked.
Harvard took another puff.
“Art Trading Corporation is targeting us, and they want to destroy us. The Hill family is on Art Trading Corporation’s blacklist now. Eagles Alliance decided to cut off ties with the Hill family and kick them out of the alliance to protect themselves.”
‘What? Eagles Alliance?’
Thomas asked, “What’s that again?”
Harvard shrugged. “In the ten months that you left, too many things happened in the Southland District, and its structure changed greatly. Not only is Art Trading Corporation dominating the market, many other companies are also acquiring other companies, seizing the market, and competing against each other. To protect themselves, or to fight against other powers, they’ve formed one alliance after another. And Eagles Alliance is one of them.”
“It’s impossible for the Hill family to fight so many big families and big alliances alone. If we didn’t pay attention, we’d be acquired. To protect ourselves, I chose to let the Hill family join Eagles Alliance. All this time, the Hill family has had a strong tie with Eagles Alliance. We have been protected by the alliance, and they have also provided a large amount of manpower, resources, and money support. Once we’re removed from Eagles Alliance, the Hill family will be in danger. It’s like a little goat that leaves the flock will be eaten by scary starving wolves at any time. Unfortunately, Art Trading Corporation, a starving wolf, is really targeting us.”
After Thomas finished listening to Harvard, favonovel.com finally understood what was going on.
In short, Eagles Alliance was afraid that Art Trading Corporation would vent its anger on the alliance, so those in the alliance decided to protect themselves by eliminating the cause of the trouble. They decided to remove the Hill family so that they could seek protection.
Thomas chuckled. “Didn’t the Hill family join Eagles Alliance for protection? Why did they immediately kick the Hill family out the moment they encounter a problem, instead of protecting the family?”
Harvard shook his head helplessly. “Their so-called protection is also complementary. They could have tried to fight if it had been another power, but it’s Art Trading Corporation, so it’s impossible to fight them. Therefore, it’s not strange for the Hill family to be removed.”
When Harvard said those words, favonovel.com felt quite helpless.
According to the power distribution in the Southland District, once the Hill family was removed from Eagles Alliance, forget Art Trading Corporation, a bigger alliance could also engulf the Hill family.
Was the Hill family going to meet its end in his hands?
When Harvard thought about it, favonovel.com felt extremely gloomy. He smoked for a while and felt very irritated. However, Thomas did not seem to be bothered. He stared at the clouds in the sky quietly before favonovel.com spoke nonchalantly. “When’s the meeting?”
“At 1.00 PM.”
“I’ll go with you.”
“Huh? What are you planning to do?”
Thomas flashed favonovel.com a faint smile. “I won’t do anything. I’ll meet the members of Eagles Alliance and advise them not to do anything silly. Don’t worry, I won’t mess it up.”
Harvard shrugged and secretly thought, ‘You always mess things up!’
