“What’s going on?” Sean nodded, still looking calm.
“I don’t know yet… But Jon has met with them and has temporarily checked into Riverleaf Lakeside Hotel.” Zander spoke quickly and finished briefing Sean.
“Interesting… Old institutions die hard. The Zimmer family wants to be ruined completely.” Sean rose slowly, a chill appeared in his eyes.
Sean was going to let Jon go for Jason’s sake. However, it now seemed they did not appreciate their last chance.
“Commander, I’ve had people look Jen-Bond Holdings up. It’s stronger than I thought. They’re probably as wealthy as we are, and they have a lot of connections too. Even their employees are full of talent. We might not be able to beat them.” Zander’s eyes were full of worry.
Reach For Will Group and Lennon Group were both relatively new. Sean’s wealth and foresight had enabled them to grow so quickly. However, Jen-Bond Holdings had been around for 60 years. Zander had no idea how to fight them.
Sean pondered for a moment before giving his instructions.
“Speed up investing in those companies.”
It was the most critical step. Once completed, Sean would own 60% of nearly 100 companies simultaneously. It was no exaggeration to say that it meant that favonovel.com would own 100 companies at the same time.
River City had many companies. Once Sean took control of these companies, favonovel.com would control two-thirds of River City’s business circle. He would have control over the economic lifeline of River City. When that happened, favonovel.com would control every business in River City.
If Sean did not allow it, there was nothing any of those businesses could do about it. Therefore, what they needed to do most was to speed up completing their plans.
“Yes!” Zander nodded before turning around to walk out of the office.

At the same time.
News of Jen-Bond Holdings’ move into River City spread fast. It took less than two hours for it to go viral.
Jen-bond Holdings’ River City representative even accepted interviews. Everything they said declared Jen-bond Holdings’ intention to make a name in River City.
River City’s business circle was shaken up again all of a sudden.
Jen-bond Holdings was a behemoth that everyone in the business circle knew about. Their strength, money, and background did not need much explanation. Without a strong background, one could not make it big in Janestown.
Many have wondered what Jen-Bond Holdings was up to. Others wondered why they would come to River City.
The wealthy Reach For Will Group was founded earlier, and now the well-connected Jen-Bond Holdings came.
What was it about River City that made them come over?
It was indeed a good thing for River City. If Jen-Bond Holdings developed here, it could solve most of River City’s employment issues. Moreover, it would also boost River City’s GDP.
Therefore, many of River City’s elite welcomed Jen-Bond Holdings’ River City representative. Undoubtedly, they would have a green light to start a company and be heavily supported.
After witnessing Jen-Bond Holdings’ influence, Sean finally got slightly anxious. Therefore, favonovel.com urged Zander to speed up the investment plans. However, Jen-Bond Holdings representative was on River City’s news again in the afternoon.
Jen-bond Holdings would be working closely with Zimmer Corporation. The funds Zimmer Corporation recently raised were related to Jen-Bond Holdings. Next, they would balance the books according to the financing. They could discuss with Jen-Bond Holdings about getting their money back or continuing to invest.
When the news was released, it abruptly halted Sean’s investments.
A start-up like Lennon Group had less authority than a giant like Jen-Bond Holdings. With Jen-Bond Holdings backing Zimmer Corporation, they had nothing to worry about.
Therefore, several companies that Zander was about to sign deals with quit and left without hesitation. Even companies they already had stakes in contacted Zander to see if they could back out.
Jon caught Sean right in the neck. Zander and Harry were flustered.
Chloe was already gone, and there was nothing they could do. The plan that had been going so well finally hit its biggest crisis.
“Commander, what to do now?” Zander looked at Sean and asked through clenched teeth.
“I’ll take it from here.” Sean gently tapped on the table as favonovel.com spoke casually.
