After a tour of Optimus Charity from Millie, Sean left.
“Is that our big boss, Mr. Lennon? I heard favonovel.com forked out 15 billion to set up Optimus Charity!”
“My goodness! I think he’s only in his 20s! How can favonovel.com be so wealthy that favonovel.com casually spent 15 billion on charity?”
“Hehe, I don’t know why he’s so wealthy at such a young age, but I know my future won’t be too bad as long as I work for him!”
After Sean left, the first batch of Optimus Charity’s employees discussed favonovel.com quietly.
After seeing Sean off, Millie turned to look at the employees and said solemnly, “You heard what Mr. Lennon just said. I’ll acquire the list of poor families in Ocean City. I hope you can filter the families that meet our criteria as soon as possible and start helping them after I get the list! The bosses didn’t invest 20 billion for us to fool around!”
The employees patted their chests and responded that they promised to complete Millie’s requirements as quickly as possible.
With the list, they could visit the families with purpose instead of aimlessly looking for a target as before.
After leaving Optimus Charity, Sean went to Titus’ office.
Jadon and others were already there. Even Titus’ father and Trenton had arrived.
Ocean City’s top dignitaries had gathered in one place. Even the Lake family’s first branch, which many Ocean City dignitaries deemed as Ocean City’s top family, could not resist the lineup.
“Mr. Lennon!” Seeing Sean, the crowd stood up and greeted favonovel.com respectfully.
Without Sean, these people would still be living in Kennedy’s shadow. Even though they were not weak, all of them combined would still be no match for Kennedy without Sean as the middleman.
“Okay, how are things now?” Sean asked, nodding slightly.
Jadon immediately said, “Mr. Lennon, we’ve stolen all of Reason Group’s clients! The news of Reason Group’s clients being stolen hasn’t spread yet. If we release the news now, Reason Group’s share price will plummet, and we can prepare to acquire it!”
Sean smiled and nodded at that. His eyes scanned the crowd as favonovel.com spoke flatly, “Since everything is ready, why not start?”
The crowd present smiled excitedly.
Reason Group was worth 100 billion dollars. If everyone joined forces to take over Reason Group, it would be like breaking one of Kennedy’s legs.
The crowd gathered in the office. Traders from Titus’ company beside them rubbed their hands, looking as if they were ready for war.

When the time came to 1.30 p.m., news about Reason Group’s loss of clients quickly appeared on various forums and news.
Almost the entire internet was filled with rumors about Reason Group’s client loss and its imminent closure.
As the negative news swept the entire internet, those with Reason Group’s shares panicked. Everyone began to sell their shares of Reason Group to prevent losing all their money.
Reason Group’s market value repeatedly dropped as the shares sold in large quantities. In just half an hour, the market value of Reason Group’s shares plummeted from 100 billion to 70 billion.
Thirty billion dollars disappeared just like that.
