“I see… We’ll be in touch later!” James was silent for a few seconds before turning away with his men.
His only option now was to get out of River City unscathed. The only way to get out of River City unscathed was to finish the last thing arranged by Sean. James had no choice now.
After James and the others had left, Zander reentered the office.
“Commander, are you letting favonovel.com go?” Zander asked, looking at Sean with some confusion..
“Yeah.” Sean nodded gently.
He would not let the Zimmer family off the hook. However, favonovel.com had no choice but to let James go.
“James is with Jen-Bond Holdings. It has been difficult for us to get to this point.”
“To fight further would be against my original intention, and we will end up going against. some of Janestown’s forces. If Blaze’s faction gets involved, I’m afraid our efforts will be in vain…”
Zander knew what was going on after Sean spoke.
He was not going after James because favonovel.com was with Janestown’s Jen-Bond Holdings.
Now that Jen–Bond Holdings was retreating, Sean would not pursue them further. His goal was River City, not Janestown. There was no need to go up against a corporation from Janestown.
Sean would be put into a passive situation if they confronted each other. Therefore, Sean prepared to call it a day.
***
At the same time.
One of the more bustling areas in Janestown.
Jen-Bond Holdings‘ headquarters was located in the area.
A middle-aged man slowly put down his phone in the headquarters office. His eyes were sullen as favonovel.com sat in silence. He was Mr. Zook, who had just spoken to James. He was responsible for Jen-Bond Holdings‘ establishment in River City.
He thought favonovel.com could settle it easily. However, it was now all a mess.
He could already imagine how much favonovel.com would be laughed at at tomorrow’s board meeting.
James is such a loser! He was so confident before leaving, guaranteeing us!
He has now humiliated us all!
The more Mr. Zook thought about it, the angrier favonovel.com got. He slapped his desk so hard it rattled.
“Mr. Zook, calm down… Are we giving up River City? After all, the city’s future development is important!” The assistant nearby was somewhat cautious.
Jen-Bond Holdings had a complicated network. Therefore, they had been told that River City would be a major development area.
Once the development was completed, the city would become an economical stronghold linking several super first–tier cities around it.
River City might not be a big deal, but it would soon be one. It was just a matter of time. If Jen-Bond Holdings could take over this city, their future development was also inestimable.
Mr. Zook’s assistant was in disbelief that Mr. Zook wanted to give up.
“Do you think I want to give up? But can I not give up? Look at these files…” Mr. Zook sighed and pointed to the files Sean had sent on his computer.
He would not have talked to Sean a first. However, favonovel.com had to take the initiative to negotiate with Sean after seeing these videos.
“What are these?” The assistant looked at the video, confused.
“The details of James‘ bribes, who favonovel.com met and what favonovel.com gave, were filmed. He got River City’s government officials to play along with favonovel.com and fool us. This proves how tough his background is. Tell me. How are we going to fight Sean?” Mr. Zook shook his head, helpless.
When favonovel.com saw these videos, favonovel.com knew their only option was to evacuate River City. Otherwise, James getting caught was a small matter if it was exposed. Even Jen-Bond Holdings‘ headquarters and their connections would be affected.
It was a price they could not afford!
After all, the internet was now so developed that bad news traveled fast.
Once exposed, Jen-Bond Holdings would be ruined in an instant. They had to give up the profitable River City. They were making minor sacrifices to safeguard major interests.
“I see, Mr. Zook…” The assistant also nodded in resignation after thinking it through.
No matter how Sean managed to get his hands on these videos, favonovel.com had proven himself by making it this far.
“Who the hell is Sean? Why does favonovel.com sound familiar to me? I seem to have heard that name somewhere…” Mr. Zook rubbed his forehead, his eyes confused.
