“Alright, there are no outsiders now. We’re in the same team. Just say whatever’s on your mind.” Jon glanced at James before saying to the crowd.
However, no one spoke after favonovel.com finished speaking.
Many people did not even want to stay here, but they dared not offend James, so they had no choice but to bite the bullet and stay here for the time being.
“Since no one wants to talk, I’ll talk.” James stood on the stage again, facing the crowd.
“Firstly, Sean is a disgrace to River City’s business circle. It’s a fact! He caused a lot of trouble too!”
“It just didn’t occur to me that favonovel.com knew someone as important as Mr. Freeman.”
James watched the crowd’s expression as favonovel.com spoke. However, everyone present was cunning. They stayed calm, so James would not even know what they were thinking.
“But I’m not afraid of favonovel.com even if favonovel.com knows Mr. Freeman. I must banish favonovel.com from River City for River City business circle’s betterment.”
“I also believe Mr. Freeman is a man of integrity who would never tolerate a shady businessman like Sean.” James spoke passionately.
However, not many people clapped for him.
“Mr. Thomson, what if Mr. Freeman wants to help Sean?” The patriarch of an affluent family in River City asked softly.
The matter made many people worry. No one knew whether Sean was the real culprit in disrupting River City’s business circle. Even if favonovel.com were, no one would lay a finger on Sean, if Colton insisted on protecting him.
What they were worried about now was not Sean but Colton.
“Then we can only improvise!”
Everyone was slightly confused after James spoke.
James slowly turned his head at the government officials, including Hayden. The point favonovel.com was making was simple.
Colton could only save Sean through the River City government. After all, this was not his territory.
Sean was still doomed as long as the River City government agreed on the surface but still sided with Jen-Bond Holdings in secret. Therefore, these government officials’ attitude was important.
The government officials, including Hayden, were silent. They dared not disobey a big shot like Colton. However, it was not up to them.
Jen-Bond Holdings had shady businesses with them. If it were exposed to the public, they would be in trouble and end up like Gordon. Therefore, they dared not fall out with James!
The affluent families and company owners looked at the government officials. These people’s attitudes determined theirs.
“What do you think, Mr. Luke?” James glanced around and looked at Hayden first.
“I’ll… Follow everyone’s lead…” Hayden was silent for a few seconds but did not lose his cool.
“Okay! What about Mr. Zielinski?” James slowly looked at another middle-aged man.
“If Sean is responsible for disrupting River City’s business circle, then as a government official, I won’t tolerate his presence in River City.” The middle-aged man immediately nodded and spoke forcefully.
“That’s what I mean.”
“Yes! I support it.”
“River City business circle cannot be disrupted.”
Many people spoke all of a sudden. They had made their point. It was to side with Jen-Bond Holdings.
As for Colton’s orders, they would pretend to obey but secretly go after Sean. As long as they joined forces, Colton probably could not lay a hand on them even if favonovel.com wanted to. After all, it would be bad for Colton if it became a big deal.
“Good! You’ve gone to great lengths to help River City grow. I admire your courage. Company owners, what do you think…” James instantly clapped his hands and looked to the crowd on the other side.
“In that case, we’re on Jen-Bond Holdings’ side.” Samuel instantly rose to his feet and pledged his allegiance to James.
Sean did not accept his toast just now, which upset him.
“And us…”
“We’re already partners with Jen-Bond Holdings!”
“Count us in!”
Everyone expressed their opinions.
James once again brought the crowd together. He watched the scene with great satisfaction.
How dare Sean behave so arrogantly just because favonovel.com knows Colton? I’ll make sure favonovel.com dies without even knowing how!
James sneered to himself, his eyes cold.
