The Guardian's Sword

Chapter 1044

“What?”

Everyone froze instantly.

They also stopped taking food.

Sean casually picked up another slice of fruit again.

The private room was quiet except for the sound of Sean picking up food.

His calm demeanor was in stark contrast to the Quinn family and Jon’s panic.

“Mr… Mr. Thomson, is… is this a joke…”

A few seconds later, Jon forced a smile and said as he looked at James.

“Yes, Mr. Thomson. You…”

Samuel nodded too. He thought James must be joking too.

Jen–Bond Holdings had no reason to divest!

They had put so much money and effort into taking over River City.

Besides, the future profits of the developing River City was immeasurable.

Why would Jen–Bond Holdings want to give up such a profitable land?

Was it because Sean knew Souz River’s Mr. Freeman and was backed by Reach For Will Group?

With Jen–Bond Holdings‘ powerful financial resources and terrifying background, they should not fear

Reach For Will Group!

“I’m not kidding you.

“HQ has announced it.

“They asked me to wrap things up and return to Janestown.

“You can do whatever you want in River City. Jen–Bond Holdings isn’t getting involved anymore.”

James said, slowly rising to his feet.

Everyone finally confirmed that James was not kidding.

Jen–Bond Holdings was indeed pulling out of River City!

In other words, the Zimmer family lost their big backer, Jen–Bond Holdings.

Therefore, would the Quinn family’s plan to use the Zimmer family to get connected to Jen- Bond

Holdings has gone down the drain?

They suddenly remembered what Sean had said when he got here.

Looking at Sean’s calm demeanor, did he know this would happen in advance?

Was that why he was so confident?

“Mr. Thomson, don’t go….

“We’ve worked so hard. How can we give up?

“We’ve done so much and only missing the last step. We can’t give up halfway!”

Jon got up, his face humble and pleading.

If Jen–Bond Holdings withdrew from River City, the Zimmer family and the Quinn family would have an

unimaginable future.

“You can take the last step yourselves.

*Jen–Bond Holdings don’t want to be on bad terms with Reach For Will Group, let alone with Mr.

Lennon.”

James shook his head slightly and said calmly.

However, his calm words set off a storm in Jon and the others‘ hearts.

Did James mean they had made peace with Sean?

He did not want to be on bad terms with Sean. Did they want to be friends?

With that in mind, the Quinn family, Jon, and Quill could not help but turn to look at Sean.

Sean looked calm as he ate quietly.

He seemed to have no interest in their conversation.

*The food today tastes pretty good.”

Sean put down his spoon and fork and got up slowly.

Old Madam Quinn and the rest looked at Sean with mixed expressions.

Fion who was beside Sean even kept a distance from Sean.

She silently moved her chair toward Sean.

She wanted to say something to Sean but did not know how.

“Sean, you… you’re despicable!”

Quill pointed at Sean, his anger rising.

He thought Sean must be behind James‘ decision.

He could not lose his temper on James, so he took it out on Sean.

“Do you believe what I just told you?”

Sean gave Quill a meaningful look and slowly pulled out his chair.

Quill remembered what Sean had just said to him.

Sean said the dinner tonight was held to see how the Zimmer family got humiliated.

Sean’s words had come true.

They had invited the Quinn family over for discussion.

However, Jen–Bond Holdings stopped and got rid of the Zimmer family.

The benefits the Zimmer family promised the Quinn family had become a joke.

“Sean, actually…”

Samuel gritted his teeth, looked at Sean, and wanted to speak.

“Shut up.”

Sean glanced at Samuel and shut him up with one sentence.

Samuel turned red and lowered his head slightly.

Old Madam Quinn kept giving Kent a look.

Old Madam Quinn knew now would be the best time to suck up to Sean.

Otherwise, they would have no more chances in the future.

After all, Kent was Sean’s future father–in–law. He should give him face.

“Well… Sean…”

Kent was silent for two seconds before calling out to Sean.

“Shut up.”

However, Sean was ruthless as he looked at Kent and said.

It was not that Sean did not respect Kent. He did not want to see Kent get used by the Quinn family.

“Okay…”

Kent lowered his head and said no more.

Knock knock.

Sean reached out and tapped on the table.

“The Zimmer family’s recent fundraising has affected nearly 100 companies.

“Lennon Group owns more than 60% of these companies‘ stakes and is the largest shareholder.

“So the Zimmer family owes Lennon Group 60% of these debts.

“When is the Zimmer family going to pay back this money?”

Sean slowly turned to look at Jon.

After all this preparation, it was time to settle the score.

The Zimmer family could not get away this time.

Sean wanted to see if someone else like Jen–Bond Holdings would be involved.

“Sean! You’re gone too far!

“Don’t you know what happened to the money and who took it?”

Jon was furious and pointed at Sean, trembling.

“I do.

“I took the money.”

With a sneer on his lips, Sean admitted it without hesitation.

“What?”

Jon had no idea Sean would admit it on the spot.

The Quinn family also looked surprised.

Shocked by Sean’s method, they were also surprised that Sean would admit it.

“But do you have proof?”

Sean’s next sentence sent Jon to hell.

They had no proof.

Even if they did, with Sean’s current power, it would be hard for the Zimmer family to do anything to

him!

What were the facts?

The winner often wrote them.

Sean was the winner.

Therefore, whatever he said was facts.
