Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2348

Indeed, Warren was the one who got Mitxel Group to order Intercontinental Group to attack Linton Group.

Taking out his phone, Warren called Jared.

When the call went through, Jared was heard saying respectfully, “Yes, Master? How could I be of help?”

“I want Linton Group to go out of business in three days' time,” Warren uttered coldly. “You can manage that, right?”

Jared immediately answered, “Master, don't worry. Within three days, Linton Group will disappear from the face of the earth.”

Hearing that, Warren nodded in satisfaction. “Also, there's someone called Dawn Castaneda in Linton Group. I want you to investigate her.”

“Understood. I'll do it right now! Wait for my good news in three days' time.”

After hanging up the phone, Jared called Sheldon of Intercontinental Group.

In no time, he got through to Sheldon.

“Good morning, Mr. Jared,” greeted Sheldon respectfully.

Jared asked coldly, “What's the progress on the mission I've given to you?”

Sheldon quickly answered, “It's almost done.”

“Okay. Good job. I want Linton Group to go out of business in three days' time. Can you manage that?”

Sheldon went quiet all of a sudden.

Jared then queried, “Talk, will you? Is there a problem?”

Letting out a sigh, Sheldon responded, “Actually, yes, there is, Mr. Jared. To be honest, Intercontinental Group is not doing any better than Linton Group. We're in a dire situation. We don't have enough money to operate any longer. If we keep attacking Linton Group, we might end up bankrupt as well.”

Jared scoffed mockingly in response. “You might end up being bankrupt by attacking Linton Group, yet you call yourselves Intercontinental Group? Fine. I'll give you one hundred million to get things running. Once you guys have defeated Linton Group, Mitxel Group will help restore your company.”

Upon hearing that, Sheldon furrowed his brows. “One hundred million? Isn't that too little?”

Jared got angry, and he fumed, “What? Are you not satisfied with it? I can get you to do what I want without giving you a penny, you know? You're a successful businessman, aren't you? Look further, will you? After Intercontinental Group joins Mitxel Group in the future, I guarantee your company will become the industry's standard.”

Frightened when Jared got angry, Sheldon immediately replied, “One hundred million is enough. I'll get to work right away. Within three days, Linton Group will fall.”

“Good.”

With that, the call ended.

Sheldon was so pissed that he ended up hitting his phone.

That darned Jared! He's so petty! My company is going bankrupt, and he's only giving me one hundred million? What can I do with that?

As angry as he was, he didn't dare to go against Jared's wishes. Hence, he had to swallow his pride and anger.

While still frustrated, he picked up his phone and told his subordinates what to do.

Meanwhile, at Linton Group, Nancy and Lacey were staring at each other helplessly.

There was a pile of documents in front of them, with the employees' salary slips placed at the very top.

The situation at Linton Group was so bad that they couldn't even afford to pay their employees.

Smiling wryly, Nancy stated, “Lacey, what should we do next? We were supposed to pay the employees two days ago. Although they didn't ask us about it, I bet they're all grumbling within.”

Releasing a sigh, Lacey answered, “We have no choice but to let go of the business.”

“Lacey, why don't we think of something else? I can sell my house and car. I think we still can pay the employees their salaries. Linton Group is something you've painstakingly built. How could we just give up on it so easily?”
