Chapter 64 A Shock to Cleveque City

Triston's eyes flashed with coldness. The reason why he came here with Blake was to stall Charles and the others by keeping them staying at City Hall to avoid them making trouble outside.

Charles gradually calmed down because of the advice from his teacher who promoted him from a nobody to his current position. He believed in his teacher's foresight. Besides, Charles also knew the one who was able to destroy almost all the factories of Morgan Group overnight must be too powerful to be dealt with by him as only a head of department in Cleveque City. But such a loss wasn't what he wished for as a leader of Cleveque City for so many years.

Thinking of this, Charles sighed deeply and said with mixed feelings, "I'm sorry, Mr. Walken and Mr. Piper. But please make allowances for me since I'm the leader of the city and all I want is a better future for it. As the most influential company in Cleveque City, Morgan Group plays a vital role, so I'm afraid such a change in the leadership will give rise to negative influences."

"Well, Morgan Group ... Morgan Group ... Jason Morgan," Blake sneered with contempt, as a way of showing his contempt for Jason.

Charles frowned as he looked at Blake in confusion. "Mr. Piper, what's wrong? Do you have a point to make?"

Blake wiped his sneer off, gave a meaningful look at Charles, and then said slowly in a deep voice, "Mr. Crawford, have you forgotten something? Or do you need me to remind you of it? Do you believe Morgan Group was established by such a bastard as Jason Morgan? It's so ridiculous."

Then Blake didn't say anything else and he just kept sneering, looking at Charles as if he was a fool, his aura ascending, as well as Triston's to permeate the air in the room.

"What did you say? Wait ... what do you mean? But didn't that person who established the group die long ago? Besides, Jason was also injured in the process of rescuing him. Wait a second. Mr. Piper, do you mean the one behind you is that person?" At this moment, Charles was greatly shocked because he had heard of this legendary figure in Cleveque City seven years ago before he rose to the head of City Hall. This figure established Morgan Group as a part-time job during his sophomore year and expanded this small business into a public company, which earned him a reputation as a businessman of genius in Cleveque City's business circles. At that time, almost all the tycoons in this city had great expectations of him. But on the verge of his graduation and Morgan Group's going public, he was hunted and killed in rivers.

"Mr. Crawford, don't comment on nor probe into it since this is about someone who you and even your superiors can't afford to offend. Otherwise, you'll be just asking for trouble," Triston said meaningfully as he lowered his head, playing with the teacup in his hands. As for Blake, he was sneering at Triston's side.

Hearing his words, Charles was astounded and hurriedly nodded, thinking he would be relieved if it was that legendary figure who came back to take over Morgan Group. In that case, this company would definitely be soon restored to its former glory and even be more powerful even if it was in a terrible condition. After all, he was the real owner of Morgan Group.

From what Charles heard, he believed there must be something else going on behind that accident and it was likely to be Jason who stabbed that figure in the back.

At this time, Charles fell silent, as well as the others present in the big conference room. All of them put down their phones, as a way of not interfering in this matter anymore.

At the same time, a similar story happened in the Waldorf family's meeting hall in Cleveque City which contained nearly all the tycoons in the business circles of this city, as well as Lucas from Southpool City, Dawson and Eden from Pasoland City. As outsiders, the three of them showed no fear while confronting those tycoons.

As the lord of the Waldorf family, Bob Waldorf was seated at the head of the table and frowned deeply as he looked at the three of them seriously, asking, "Mr. Mond, Mr. Gill, and Mr. Addison, on behalf of Cleveque City's business circles, I'm asking you if you're related to what happened to Morgan Group last night. Besides, are you aiming at only Morgan Group or the Cleveque City's business circles?" As soon as he finished speaking, all the tycoons fixed their eyes on the three of them.

Seated at the end of the table, Lucas took a sip of tea casually before smiling faintly and replying, "Mr. Waldorf and the other counterparts in Cleveque City, please don't worry. We promise to only aim at Morgan Group and not to involve any other companies."

Hearing his words, Carl Bass, another lord of the Bass family asked, "Then how can you convince us that what you said is for real?"

When Carl finished speaking, the hall was instantly shrouded in a heavy silence. Everyone shared the same worry as Carl since there was no guarantee that the three of them and the force behind them would do something to other companies.

Smiling, Lucas kept silent. At this time, Dawson looked up, saying, "Well, do you think Morgan Group isn't enough for us and we're aiming at the whole business circles in Cleveque City?"

Hearing that, all the tycoons present were shocked at their ambition. It turned out that they not only aimed at Morgan Group but also the other companies. What greedy and ambitious they were. More importantly, it was far from talk since they had made their move so decisively.
