“But Jen-Bond Holdings isn’t interested.”
When James said this, the weight in Jon’s heart instantly lifted. Then Jon was smug, even looking at Sean defiantly. His eyes were full of disdain.
“Would Jen-Bond Holdings make such an unwise decision?” Sean frowned slightly and tried to fight for it again.
“Mr. Lennon, to put it bluntly, what we need at Jen-Bond Holdings is an obedient partner we can control. That’s the point. But I don’t think Mr. Lennon fits our requirements.” A hint of amusement crept into James’s mouth.
Sean understood him.
Jen-Bond Holdings was working with Jon, and Jon naturally followed their orders and did whatever they said. However, it might be different if they worked with Sean.
Sean would never be at the mercy of Jen-Bond Holdings like Jon. Besides, River City was so small that Sean would probably take over Jen-Bond Holdings in one mouthful if favonovel.com had the chance.
Jen-Bond Holdings was a good judge of character.
Sean’s plan to work with Jen-Bond Holdings was just a stopgap. River City was not enough for the two of them. By the time favonovel.com recovered himself, favonovel.com was going to crush Jen Bond Holdings. However, Jen-Bond Holdings was not giving favonovel.com the chance.
“Is it non-negotiable?” Sean asked quietly after a few seconds of silence.
“It’s not non-negotiable, but you have to show some sincerity, Mr. Lennon.” James smiled before looking at Sean.
“What sincerity?” Sean asked impassively as favonovel.com looked James in the eye.
“We’re interested in the development approval permit for the land in the heart of River City. As long as Mr. Lennon is willing to unconditionally transfer it to Jen-Bond Holdings, we can talk about having a cooperation.”
Sean and Zander both laughed out loud in anger after James spoke.
Everyone knew that the land development approval permit could be said to have unlimited potential. Its value could not be measured by money. Jen-Bond Holdings greedily wanted the development approval permit. Besides that, they wanted to take it unconditionally.
It was equivalent to Sean transferring the development approval permit to Jen–Bond Holdings for free.
They were more than nasty. They were awfully cruel!
“How dare Jen-Bond Holdings say that?” Sean got up slowly when favonovel.com heard that, his eyes full of ice.
It was a sheer waste of breath to talk to someone with whom you could not see eye to eye.
Jen-Bond Holdings had no intention of cooperating. The land development approval permit was Sean’s last resort. Once they handed it over, Jen-Bond Holdings would stop holding back and would go harder on Sean.
How could favonovel.com just hand it over?
“Mr. Lennon, you needn’t be angry. It’s just a suggestion. Mr. Lennon, you’re going to lose it sooner or later even if you don’t hand it over now. Jen–Bond Holdings always gets what they want.” James sat in his chair with a sneer on his face.
“The permit is in my hand. Jen-Bond Holdings can come and get it if they can.” Sean rose out of his chair to turn around and leave.
Since it did not work out with Jen-Bond Holdings, favonovel.com was going to work on other plans.
“Mr. Lennon, are you sure you won’t consider it further? If you hand over the permit now, I can at least make sure you won’t be too badly affected. But if you’re stubborn, don’t blame Jen-Bond Holdings for not leaving any leeway!” James jumped to his feet and put his hands on the table, his tone was threatening.
“It’s mine. No one can take it away. Including you, Jen–Bond Holdings! Lennon Group is new, but… We’re ready to go to war any time!”
Sean left the private room without another word. Zander followed, not even glancing at James.
“You!” James watched Sean and Zander leave and banged the table angrily.
“How can Sean be so unappreciative?”
It never occurred to James that anyone in the small River City would refuse Jen-Bond Holdings.
Sean not only refused but even declared war with Jen-Bond Holdings. He was extremely arrogant!
“Mr. Thomson, Sean’s crazy! But favonovel.com can’t be arrogant much longer!” Jon sneered, his face full of disdain.
They had found some evidence that Sean transferred Zimmer Corporation’s funds. They could tell the whole River City when they found the right opportunity.
Sean would be a pariah in River City and could not stay any longer.
“Hmph! How dare favonovel.com threaten me? I’ll see how favonovel.com is going to fight against Jen–Bond Holdings!” James banged on the desk and turned to leave the private room.
The negotiation ended on bad terms. Their relationship also became tenser.

At the same time.
River City airport.
Five government vehicles were neatly parked. Every car was full of people.
River City CIA’s current director Damian was sitting in the first car, waiting anxiously. He seemed to be waiting for someone.
River City fell under Souz River’s jurisdiction. Souz River controlled the entire River City. Souz River government officials also had a higher status than those in the River City. government, of course.
Today, Damian was here to receive a big shot from Souz River.
