Salute to the General novel Chapter 2548

Both Zion and Jessica then entered the venue with their respective teams and started the negotiation.

While the negotiation process was underway, Jemma was also pressuring Penny, Chance, and the other bosses of Eurasian companies behind the scenes.

Chance and the other bosses of Eurasian companies gathered at Cross Group that morning, much to Penny's surprise.

She then quickly ushered them into the VIP lounge and had her secretary serve them tea.

“Mr. Fox, what brings you all here today?”

Chance let out a wry chuckle as he replied, “Jemma has been pressuring our companies into accepting Ariarica's unfair terms while the negotiation process is still underway. She insists that we make a decision by today, so we had no choice but to come to you for help. Please advise us on what we should do, Ms. Smith!”

“Everybody, please stay calm. Mr. Lucas is still in the process of negotiating with Jessica. Until they come to a conclusion, we should remain calm and refrain from causing any further trouble. We agreed to put our faith in Mr. Lucas and wait for further instructions after he completes the negotiation, remember?” Penny said.

Chance and the others kept quiet after hearing that.

Suddenly, a woman's cold voice came from the door of the conference room.

“Heh... Your precious Cross Group is on Ariarica’s list of companies to be sanctioned, Penny. It's only a matter of time before that happens! As for Mr. Fox and the others, we have to decide on whether we will sanction your companies. Whether or not that happens depends on your performance, so I suggest you all refrain from being an ally with Cross Group here. Penny, you know your company is going down, and yet you're asking others to join you in fighting till the end? Are you trying to take them all down with you? Tsk, tsk... You sure are a heartless person!”

Penny frowned upon hearing that.

Everyone else turned around in surprise, only to see Jemma coming through the door with her subordinates.

“Oh, it's you again. You are not welcome here, Jemma. What do you want?” Penny asked with a gloomy expression.
