"Tina, don't do anything stupid, do you hear me?" Carol said as she stared at her daughter.
'My daughter would never get Greg if her rival is going to be Violet. Although Violet is not so much a problem, her family is not something we can handle. Once we piss her off, her father Jackson will get upset too. In this way, our family will make enemies not only in the business circle but in the military circle as well, ' Carol thought.
After returning to her room, Carol took out her phone and quickly dialed a number.
"Hello, Mrs. Carol," a woman's voice could be heard from the other line.
"Hello, Mrs. Qin, do you think it will be ok for you to talk with me now?" Carol asked with a courteous smile. In her eyes, Mrs. Qin was on good terms with all the rich ladies of the elite circle. Besides, she was her confidant. That was why Carol thought it was best if she enquired from her about the Chu family.
"Oh, yes what's up? Do you have any problem?" Mrs. Qin asked in a soft tone.
"I want to know about the Chu family and the JC Group if possible," Carol blurted frankly. In front of Mrs. Qin, she thought it was better if she talked directly.
"Are you talking about the Chu family?" Mrs. Qin mumbled in surprise. After getting over the shock, she asked,"Tell me, what do you want to know?"
"What all do you know about the JC Group? How about Jackson and Cherry? Are they difficult to talk and speak to?" Carol asked with a hesitant expression, hopeful of something pleasant to hear.
Mrs. Qin hesitated for some time, and then finally answered Carol's words.
"Carol, now that you have asked, I will tell you everything that I know off. The JC Group can be considered as the leader of four leading enterprises of the city. Nowadays many people call it the JC empire. A Few years ago, the JC Group had started its entertainment business. Besides, it has many branches overseas. Even if I didn't tell you, you should know all this information. After all, you are also a part of this circle," she replied.
"Yeah, I know that Jackson and Cherry are still in Hong Kong, aren't they?" Carol echoed.
"Yes, they are. The JC Group is very strong. Jackson is closely connected to the presidents of JS Group, ZM Group, and H King Group. I heard from my husband, that Jackson, and Derek are best friends. Besides, Mond, the CEO of ZM Group is said to be Jackson's half brother. He is a ruthless and ambitious businessman. Do you know that he never gives his business opponents any chances to strike back?" Mrs. Qin replied.
After a pause, she continued,"I don't think it is necessary that I introduce H King Group to you. You should also know Selina. She is a woman, and so she isn't as ruthless as the men with regard to business management. But she has a knack for business. It is very well known that she is a shrewd and competent leader."
