With just a few words, Brad explained clearly the current treacherous situation of Swallow Capital.
No matter which country you were in, the Olympics was a big event.
What was more, it was being held in a country that was in urgent need of improving its international status.
In order to show the greatness of their great country and let people all over the world see their achievements, the Olympics would be the best opportunity to showcase this.
Therefore, this matter became the current major domestic event under global attention.
It was because of this that all aspects of the Olympic Games, from the venue construction to the theme design, would be treated with special care.
At this critical moment, Jasper was able to pull strings and make connections. Then, with the Laws mediating from within, he was able to introduce the top rich families of Harbor City to put in their funds.
This was a great thing since the big shots wanted the Mainland and Harbor City to merge more deeply.
As such, local citizens like the Turners were panicking.
They naturally did not want all the cake to be eaten up by Harbor City, so grouping together had become the best solution for this.
After listening to Brad’s words, Erik also realized that in this situation, even a family as big as the Turners could not stay calm during a tense situation.
If they were careless, they were very likely to be overturned.
However, when Erik heard Brad asking him to deal with Jasper, he started feeling queasy.
“Dad, I-I’m not his rival.”
Although it was too embarrassing for Erik to mention this, he thought about the consequences and felt it would be better to be honest.
After being struck down several times, Erik had lost the courage to face Jasper.
