“Let me ask you again. How are you going to choose?” Sean asked, tapping on the table and looking at the crowd.
The crowd looked at each other and saw the hesitation in each other’s eyes.
They did not hesitate to reject Sean when favonovel.com first asked such a thing. But, none of them dared be the first to say no. Even Gunther fell silent.
“Will we be brought down if we don’t choose Lennon Real Estate?” Gunther was the first to speak after a moment’s silence.
“What do you think?” Sean asked again in reply with an amused expression.
“That’s right! Either you submit yourselves or get brought down.”
“In a word, those who follow us will prosper, and those who oppose us will perish!” Without waiting for Gunther to speak, Sean added bluntly.
Hearing Sean’s arrogant speech, everyone was shocked.
If Sean had been subtle earlier, favonovel.com now made no secret of his ambition!
He told everyone that they either leave Billion Trees and cooperate with Lennon Real Estate or have Lennon Real Estate bring them down.
They had no other choice.
Some people were shocked, some were scared, and some were angry. After all, they were businessmen worth hundreds of millions of dollars. They were billionaires regular people admired the most!
Sean threatened them once they disagreed with him.
What did favonovel.com take them for?
Did favonovel.com think they had never been threatened before?
“Seven of us together wouldn’t necessarily be a match for Lennon Real Estate. Where did you get the confidence to say that?” Gunther gritted his teeth slightly and said to Sean with a cold snort.
“Do you mean you want to go against Lennon Real Estate?” Sean indifferently asked Gunther, unfazed.
“You might not be able to get much of an advantage if we fight.” Gunther paused for a second before saying coldly.
“Is that what you mean?” Sean slowly turned to look at the others again.
Gunther sneered. He believed others would feel the same way. However, everyone else lowered their heads when Sean asked them.
Every time Sean looked at someone, that person lowered their head and said nothing. It was the opposite of what Gunther imagined.
“Speak up…” Gunther instantly panicked when favonovel.com saw that something was wrong.
He thought favonovel.com would get a lot of support as soon as favonovel.com spoke up. Unfortunately, no one else spoke, and favonovel.com was all alone.
Would favonovel.com not have made himself a target?
As the saying went, “The target would always be the one to be hit.”
There was no way favonovel.com alone could defeat Lennon Real Estate!
The crowd still said nothing after Gunther urged them. It made Gunther even more uncertain.
“We’ve been working together for years. You know how I am. You’d rather believe favonovel.com than me?” Gunther asked, gritting his teeth slightly and looking at the crowd.
As soon as favonovel.com spoke, the crowd changed their mind subtly. After all, what Gunther said was true.
Their companies had been working together for a long time and were very close to each other. At least they had a certain understanding of each other’s strengths and capabilities.
What about Sean?
They had only met Sean for the second time today. They did not know anything about Sean’s history or background. It was reasonable they trusted Gunther more by contrast.
“Mr. Joller, what are you saying?”
“We’ve worked with you for years, Mr. Joller. We believe you, of course.”
“Yes, yes, yes! Let’s continue working together!”
Everyone expressed their attitude instantly. A man and a woman even sat down next to Gunther. Their attitudes were also self-evident
“There is no need to put on a show in front of me. I only want one word from you. I’m up for it anytime if you want to go against me. If you want a fight, we can fight right now…” Sean bent his fingers and tapped on the table, looking calmly at the crowd.
That sentence made everyone shut up and fall silent again.
Sean was ready for war. What about them?
Everyone but Gunther and the man and the woman hesitated again. After a long silence, they slowly lowered his head. They had to admit that they had a hard time feeling confident when facing Sean. Even if they knew nothing about Sean’s past, they did not expect Sean to afford five billion dollars.
These billionaires were well-known in Joules Town. Sean spent five billion dollars as casually as spending fifty dollars.
How was that comparable?
How were they going to fight Sean?
The four people wisely chose to lower their heads and gave in. Only Gunther and the two stood their ground.
