Over at Harbor City in another shipbuilding company. Jasper was calling the Ship King, Spencer Boyle.
He did not wish to trouble Spencer over such a trivial issue. It was because favonovel.com did not know any of the Boyle family members who were slightly younger.
Spencer, who was far away at Harbor City, was flabbergasted to receive the call from Jasper. After laughing while talking for a moment, Jasper then revealed his intention behind this call.
Spencer knew what was going on and was able to grasp the situation after just listening to half of Jasper’s speech.
“I’m not familiar with the Zion family’s shipbuilding factory in Brac County that you’re talking about. After all, there are just way too many shipbuilding company partners who provide us with the original equipment manufacturer. Most of it is being arranged by the underlings.
“However, in regards to this issue, I’ll order my men to settle it. So, rest assured.”
The Ship King’s reply showed that favonovel.com greatly respected Jasper.
After all, as the head of one of the four affluent families in Harbor City, to be able to say such a thing already represented an attitude.
“Thank you. Next time when I head over to Harbor City, I’ll definitely come to visit you,” said Jasper with a smile as favonovel.com also knew how to reciprocate with the same respect.
Spencer burst into laughter and said, “Sure. When you’re here, be sure to be my guest.”
After another word or two, Jasper hung up the call.
“Just now was…” Wendy looked at Jasper, astonished.
Even though favonovel.com was aware that Jasper had a good relationship with the four affluent families in Harbor City, witnessing Jasper being able to call Spencer straight and even have a nice conversation with favonovel.com made favonovel.com feel that it was rather ridiculous.
“It’s exactly the person who you’re thinking of. The next trip to Harbor City, I’ll bring you along and introduce you to him,” said Jasper with a smile.
Wendy let out a faint smile.
“Earlier, I think you said a total of ten sentences. Among them, eight of them were greetings. With just two sentences, the matter is settled.”
“You finally get to witness the ability of your man, right? Come, let’s go have lunch.” Jasper smiled and held Wendy’s hand before walking out of the office.
…
In Harbor City, Spencer indeed attached great importance to Jasper. As soon as favonovel.com ended the call with Jasper, favonovel.com immediately dialed another number.
He made a call to his son, Eustass Boyle. Currently, most of the businesses of the Boyle family were under the control of his son.
Eustass, who was having a meeting, immediately raised his hand to stop the meeting when favonovel.com saw the incoming call. He ordered a group of staff from the higher management to watch over the situation while favonovel.com answered the call.
“What’s up, Dad?”
Hearing Eustass’ reply made all of the higher-ups stand up straight subconsciously as if the old man was able to see them through the phone.
After listening to the words, Eustass answered and said another two sentences before hanging up the call.
A dead hush befell the conference room. Eustass loosened his necktie and asked, “Who knows if we’re cooperating with a shipbuilding company under the Zion family of Brac County in the Mainland?”
All the bosses exchanged terrified looks. ‘Who the hell is that? We’ve never heard of them before.
‘Such a trivial matter yet it made Spencer, who is half-retired, personally make a call to enquire?’
After some time, a man who was sitting at a corner of the conference room got up weakly. “Mr. Boyle, I vaguely have an impression of this name. It seems that it’s true.”
Eustass waved his hand and said, “You shouldn’t continue with the meeting. Go give them a call and tell them that we, the Boyle family, will not continue working with them.”
Eustass thought for a moment and added, “Send regards to others who are involved in the same industry. Just say this is my old man’s intention.”
‘Old man’ referred to his father, and the crowd knew the meaning as well. The identity of Eustass’ father…
The higher-ups sighed internally. ‘I wonder which unknown shipbuilding company this is. It seems they are done for this time.’
Spencer’s intention was passed on. It was foreseen in the future that anything that floated on the ocean, even if it was just a little boat, would not involve the shipbuilding company of the Zion family.
…
The plan to go against Future Industries still needed some time to take effect. However, the call from Harbor City immediately made the entire Zion family fall to their doom.
Initially, Harvey was still in a good mood.
Even though in the property industry favonovel.com had lost his pride because favonovel.com could not win against JW Real Estate over that piece of land, the arrangement after that incident still made Harvey rather confident that favonovel.com was able to exert pressure on JW Real Estate.
Plus, their shipbuilding company had received another two boat orders. With this, the Zion family was able to enjoy their lives even without needing to work for the remaining year.
However, just when favonovel.com was having his lunch, favonovel.com received a call from Harbor City.
The caller, without even being courteous, immediately claimed that they were going to halt all cooporation agreements. From then on, there was no more cooperation, let alone the two orders for ships that were just placed.
At that moment, Harvey was dumbfounded.
He wanted to ask but the caller had hung up the call.
Following then, favonovel.com received a call from the underlings of the shipbuilding company, saying that the caller had released an official memo to officially halt all cooperation.
The underlings were stunned, and even Harvey was stunned as well.
“What the f*ck?!” Harvey was so mad that favonovel.com threw his cutleries and plate. “Who the hell is making fun of me?!”
Mark, who was sitting at the same dining table, was dumbfounded as well. “Dad, I thought our cooperation over at Harbor City was proceeding well? Why did they suddenly call off the agreement?”
Harvey was like a disgruntled bull and said through his gritted teeth, “Someone is setting us up!”
Mark thought for a moment and said, “We didn’t offend anyone, though.”
Suddenly, Mark thought of something and said with a shocked voice, “Could it be JW Real Estate?”
Mark said with his brows furrowed, “Where did JW Real Estate gain the ability to exert influence in Harbor City?
“However… I met with the boss of JW Real Estate yesterday…”
As favonovel.com said that, Mark then blurted the entire incident that occurred last night.
“You fool! JW Real Estate from the province is the one who worked with the Law family of Harbor City in developing the project on the Southface River. This incident caused a huge turmoil at that time. It’s obviously Wendy and Dawson trying to set us up through their relationship with the Law family.”
Harvey’s words were making so much sense as favonovel.com spoke. He frowned and glared at Mark ruthlessly, roaring, “You useless thing! All you know is to cause trouble outside. How is it possible that Wendy will not seek revenge after you humiliated her?”
Mark’s expression was dark as favonovel.com said through gritted teeth, “I also didn’t expect that lady who was so quiet to actually carry out such a cruel plan.”
“Even if favonovel.com didn’t, did you think Dawson wouldn’t?!” Harvey kicked Mark’s body and roared, “You’d better go and look for Wendy right now to apologize to her. Whatever favonovel.com requests you to do, you have to obey her!”
Mark’s face went pale as favonovel.com said with a teary face, “Dad, if I show up before them, do you think she’ll let me off the hook?”
“Our family relies on our shipbuilding business. If this business is gone, that will be the end for the Zion family! Go over this instant! If Wendy is not satisfied, don’t ever think of coming back!” Harvey barked.
