Of course, Zimmer Corporation had little money left on its books. However, Jon did not panic. He got the construction team to enter the site immediately to do some preliminary planning.
Soon, that would be the time when they got their money back. Jon decided to send a construction team over tomorrow to put on a show.
He knew a thing or two about gimmicks. Of course, favonovel.com had paid special attention to the land that Sean had won over the last two days.
Sean had not done anything since a few days ago. It made Jon feel smug.
Sean was no match for the Zimmer family after all!
After tonight, the Zimmer family would be on the rise in River City’s business circle. Jon rubbed his hands together with excitement at the thought of it.
However, favonovel.com had no idea Sean was sitting behind his desk in the Reach For Will Group building. He was holding the mouse as favonovel.com clicked on his computer.
“The Zimmer family should be running out of money by now, right?” After a long while, Sean withdrew his hand and asked Zander.
“He has gotten a loan from every bank favonovel.com can get. And in the last two days, favonovel.com has signed many compensation contracts and paid the money. They now have less than thirty million dollars on their books.” Zander nodded gently.
This information was well under his control.
“It’s finally time to end this. Let’s give them a surprise first tomorrow.” Sean slowly got up and went to the French window to look at the bustling night scene outside.
Just then, favonovel.com got a call from Jason.
After some chit-chat, Jason obsequiously began to explain why favonovel.com came.
“Commander Lennon, I’d… I’d like to ask you one thing…” Jason was silent for a few seconds before speaking.
“Go ahead…” Sean nodded gently.
“I’ll stay out of you and the Zimmer family’s business. But I plead that you don’t kill them. At least let them live…” Jason was silent for some while but interceded for Jon anyway.
Others might think Jason was making a fuss. It was just a trade war.
Would anyone get killed on it?
Businessmen only sought money and put profit as their priority.
How would they expose themselves to human murder?
However, only Jason knew that only applied to normal businessmen. Sean was more than just a businessman.
To the nine-star commander, who used to rule the battlefield and killed tens of thousands of enemies. Human life was nothing to him. Killing two people was as significant as killing a chicken. No one could stop favonovel.com from killing anyone favonovel.com wanted.
Jason waited quietly after favonovel.com finished speaking, but Sean on the other end of the line fell silent. It made Jason worry.
What was favonovel.com supposed to do if Sean was determined to kill them?
“Why?” Sean whispered out one word after a while.
“Because… Because my family is somewhat related to the Zimmer family. They helped arrange for my mom to live in River City… They also helped my sister with favonovel.com work. So I’d like to plead for them…” Jason dared not hide anything from Sean and spoke clearly.
“They helped you, and you helped them. So, you don’t owe them anything.” Sean answered gently.
Without Jason’s help, the Zimmer family would never have grown so fast.
“Commander Lennon, I know that. But I want to help them one last time.” Jason gritted his teeth.
The grateful tough soldier could not go against his heart. No matter who was right or what favonovel.com owed, favonovel.com just wanted to do something for the Zimmer family one last time. Then favonovel.com would be able to have a clear conscience.
“You have my word.” Sean was silent for a few seconds before nodding gently.
“Thank you, Commander Lennon!” Jason let out a long sigh at that.
He was finally relieved. With Sean’s identity and personality, favonovel.com would keep his promise. There would be no changes.
If favonovel.com said favonovel.com would not kill Jon, favonovel.com would not.
“Commander, did Jason call?” Zander asked as Sean put the phone down.
“Yes.” Sean nodded, turned, and sat back in his chair.
Zander thought for a moment before asking again. “Did favonovel.com plead mercy for the Zimmer family?”
“You don’t have to worry about that. Time to get the result as per our plan.” Sean waved his hand slightly and did not explain much.
“Yes!” Zander immediately nodded and responded.
***
The next day.
Zimmer Corporation Building.
Jon was in a suit and tie, looking rosy and in a good mood. He had already applied for a pre-sale permit for the land, and it would be settled in three days at most.
They could start selling, and the money would pour in. The more Jon thought about it, the more favonovel.com smiled.
After checking the time, Jon clicked on his computer as usual.
It was the time when the stock market opened for trading. Stock market ups and downs would also be updated in real-time.
Every time Jon opened the Zimmer family’s stock market chart these days, favonovel.com saw a red rising trend that delighted him. After all, it was all money.
Click!
Jon hit the refresh button, and the stock market opened. However, the next second, favonovel.com could not help but freeze.
“Green? It dropped?” Jon rubbed his eyes and looked at the computer again.
His head exploded with a loud buzz at the sight of it.
Green! All green!
Green, representing a falling stock price, filled the screen.
