Jen-Bond Holdings had their own connections in Souz River.
They could be putting pressure from that side and those government offices in River City naturally had to obey.
James did not come to an agreement with Sean, so he wanted to use such a dirty trick on him.
It would be best if he could obtain information to use against Sean. Even if James failed to find one, Sean would still be left to deal with this in a pinch.
Sean had been too kind in the beginning after all.
He even wondered at some point if his means of dealing with the Zimmer Corporation had been too harsh.
When compared to Jen-Bond Holdings’ tricks, it truly paled in comparison.
Jen-Bond Holdings’ ploys were truly what one would call unscrupulous.
“Do you understand?
“If you do, then please come with us.”
The middle-aged man urged again.
“If you need anything, we can talk about it here.
“There’s no need to go out, right?”
Zander stepped forward with a cold look in his eyes.
“Hmm? Are you trying to obstruct official business?”
The middle-aged man’s eyes were even colder than Zander’s.
“What!”
Zander was feeling a little stunned in his heart.
They were merely government officers in a small town. How could they be so arrogant?
When Sean was in power, he was the leader of the entire Souz River, let alone this small government office in River City. They should be well-behaved, and extremely deferential in front of Sean.
However, even a small town’s government officers were planning on taking Sean away right now.
This made Zander feel extremely resentful.
“Do you want us to get more relevant departments to intervene before you’re willing to cooperate?
“I’m telling you nicely. If you come with us now, it’s called assisting with the investigation.
“But if you insist on us applying for an arrest warrant beforehand, this matter’s going to blow up!”
The middle-aged man snorted coldly, his tone filled with threats.
Zander’s expression was getting gloomier.
Had he ever been subjected to such petty annoyances before?
Even without Sean’s identity, Zander himself had a rather high rank in the army.
He could be regarded as the same rank as a feudal vassal according to the division of local positions.
Nonetheless, the person from a puny department dared to speak to him with such an attitude.
It made Zander feel powerless in foreign territory.
“It’s alright, Zander. I’ll go with them.”
Sean spoke softly, and Zander had no choice but to abide.
“Alas. Mr. Lennon’s truly a wise man who knows the ins and outs.
“You have to understand that although River City is small, it’s not as simple as you think.
“Some things don’t just go the way you want them to.”
When the middle-aged man saw Sean being submissive to him, there was a hint of arrogance on his face.
