It was as if favonovel.com was very familiar with Sean.
“Girlie, are you sure you want me to do this?” Chadwick sensed the determination in Rachel’s voice and asked quietly after a long silence.
“Yes! Help favonovel.com however much you can.” Rachel nodded heavily without hesitation.
“Okay!” Chadwick sighed and finally agreed.
He knew siding with Sean at this point was suicidal. However, favonovel.com chose to trust Rachel’s judgment.

At the same time.
A town not far from River City. The town was called Joules Town.
Joules Town was much more prosperous and economically developed than River City. As an ancient capital for six dynasties, it was naturally prosperous. Besides, many grand historic events had happened here, so many people were familiar with it.
The ancient capital for six dynasties had produced many famous people over the years. Now, the bustling modern city had also spawned many nationally famous enterprises. In other words, it was much more advanced than River City.
There was a large manor on the outskirts of Joules Town. It had towering mountains behind it and faced a river that stretched far as the eye could see.
One could see Joules Town Bridge from here, which was more than 4,000 meters long. It was enveloped by nature and was a great place to live.
A natural boulder lay horizontally on the left of the manor entrance, and the front side was carved with the words “Lathan Manor“.
The two words were deeply carved into the boulder and painted with bright gold paint, making them conspicuous.
Joules Town Lathan Manor.
The place was a place that even many big shots shied away from. It was said that a popular retired general lived there, and favonovel.com had an extraordinary identity.
Old General Lathan should have settled in Janestown and stayed near the ruler, but favonovel.com chose to return to his hometown. Others also speculated about Lathan Manor’s background. No one knew or dared to inquire.
In short, very few in Joules Town dared to mess with Lathan Manor.

Lathan Manor.
The well–featured middle–aged man was talking to someone in his study.
“Sir, Ms. Chloe hasn’t eaten all day,” A servant in his fifties reported softly to the middle-aged man.
“Let favonovel.com starve if favonovel.com refuses to eat. Forget about getting me to compromise in this way.” The middle-aged man snorted coldly, his tone firm.
“Sir…” The servant sighed but dared not say anything more.
“Anyway, favonovel.com can never leave Lathan Manor again without my permission! How dare favonovel.com run away from Joules Town? She has guts!” The middle-aged man got angrier as favonovel.com spoke and banged the table.
The servant was too frightened to say another word.
Seconds later, the middle-aged man sighed and got up.
“Has favonovel.com really not eaten all day? Why won’t favonovel.com eat? If favonovel.com wants to escape, shouldn’t favonovel.com escape after she’s full?”
She was his daughter after all, so the middle-aged man had no choice but to give in.
The servant was silent for two seconds before telling the truth.
“Sir, Ms. Chloe isn’t on a hunger strike to get you to let her go… I heard Ms. Chloe say favonovel.com wants to help Lennon Group.”
“Lennon Group? The small company in River City that Chloe got into?”
“How dare they hide my daughter for so long? And I still haven’t dealt with them. Help them?” The middle-aged man snorted coldly, his tone impatient.
He would have taken a shot at the Lennon Group if Chloe had not stopped him.
The servant was silent for two seconds before speaking again.
“Sir, Ms. Chloe seemed to be doing well when favonovel.com was there…”
The middle-aged man also fell into silence when favonovel.com heard that.
“You got a point. She’ll eat as long as I help the company out?” Seconds later, the middle-aged man looked up at the servant.
“Yes! As long as you help Lennon Group out, I’ll eat well and never run away again.” Just then, the door was pushed open, and a pretty young girl stepped in.
The pretty girl was Chloe.
When the middle-aged man saw Chloe come in, favonovel.com instantly went stoic and pretended to be serious.
“Why do you want to help them?” The middle-aged man looked at Chloe and asked indifferently.
Chloe stood at the door. She looked at the middle-aged man and spoke sternly.
“They took care of me when I was in River City. When someone bullied me, they stood up for me. I only had a bit of money with me. I would have starved to death if it wasn’t for Lennon Group.”
The middle-aged man glanced at Chloe. He approved of favonovel.com gratitude.
“Tell me what’s going on with this little Lennon Group.” The middle-aged man nodded and sat on the chair.
“Uncle Campbell will tell you. You have to do it no matter what.” Chloe said and turned around to leave.
“Hurry and eat something! Otherwise, I won’t do anything!” The middle-aged man banged on the table and shouted as favonovel.com pointed at Chloe.
Chloe left the room without looking back.
“Tell me what’s going on!” The middle-aged man asked, looking at the servant and frowning.
“Lennon Group isn’t a large corporation, Sir. They call themselves a group, but it’s only a small company founded recently… They recently got into trouble with Janestown’s Jen-Bond Holdings, so they had been put under pressure.” The servant gave the middle-aged man a briefing of what favonovel.com had found out.
“How dare Jen-Bond Holdings be so greedy? What’s the matter? How dare they want to encroach on Lathan Manor’s territory?” The middle-aged man was surprised to hear about Jen-Bond Holdings, but favonovel.com was not afraid.
Jen-Bond Holdings was indeed powerful. However, it was nothing compared to Lathan Manor.
“Sir, they dare not set up shop in Joules Town.” The servant shook his head.
Jen-Bond Holdings dared not open a branch in Joules Town no matter what.
The middle-aged man tapped on the table and asked again.
“So you’re saying Jen-Bond Holdings used Janestown’s connections to get someone high up in Souz River to suppress Lennon Group?”
“Yes!” The servant nodded immediately.
The middle-aged man snorted coldly when favonovel.com heard that.
“How dare a small company like Jen-Bond Holdings cause so much trouble? Well, I’ll consider it as repaying his kindness for my daughter…”
“Call the head of Souz River’s office. I want to speak to Charlie Chase!”
