Summon of The Sword novel Chapter 958

The middle-aged tax officer’s party looked at each other in dismay. Although they had no clue what was going on, they all lowered their heads and remained silent.

Even Damian remained tight-lipped at this moment.

Sean was puzzled by this. He glanced at Damian, almost questioning him with his eyes.

However, Damian was merely slightly wringing his hands. He was at a loss as well and had no idea what Colton was up to.

Damian simply just happened to hear that some guys from River City’s staff administration and tax department were coming to investigate the Lennon Group today.

As for Colton, he quickly brought Damian along.

Damian did not know the reason and did not have the guts to ask what Colton wanted to do.

“I heard someone saying that things will usually go their way in River City.

“Who was the person who said this? Was it you?”

Colton slowly turned his head and looked at the middle-aged man.

“Mr. Freeman, I… I’d never. I was simply talking babbling nonsense…”

The sweat on the middle-aged man’s forehead kept gushing out, and his heartbeat continued to accelerate.

“How could you blurt out blatant nonsense as a public official?

“You surely are a brave one.”

Colton’s voice was not loud, but his stern tone was making the middle-aged man’s legs go weak.

If one were to offend Colton, even his immediate superior would lose their job, not to mention a small fry like him!

“I was wrong, Mr. Freeman! I’ll surely correct my mistakes!’

The middle-aged man wiped away his sweat with his sleeves and nodded like a chicken.

He no longer had that trace of arrogance on his face that he showed when facing Sean before.

At this time, his attitude was extremely meek, and even his words were cautious.

“I’m merely giving you a warning for now.”

Colton glared at the middle-aged man, but did not pursue it further.

After all, he did not come all the way to River City to deal with these trivial matters.

“Yes. Yes, of course...”

The middle-aged man felt as if they had been granted amnesty, and wiped the sweat from his forehead again.

As for Colton, he did not continue to say anything else.

After half a minute, Colton frowned and looked at the middle-aged man.

“Are you people planning to stay the night here?”

With that tone, Colton was clearly insinuating for them to leave!

It was just that these middle-aged people were stuck in between the decision of fleeing, and not fleeing. They felt uncertain in their hearts.

Their task was to bring Sean back to the government office.

However, it seemed like Colton was protecting Sean right now.

This placed them in a difficult situation.

“This is my name card.

“Tell your superior to give me a call and I’ll talk to him.”

Colton took out a business card and handed it over.

“Okay! Alright!”

At this point, the middle-aged personnel no longer tried to stick around. They quickly took the business card and left the building.

When Sean and Damian saw this, they finally realized that Colton seemed to be here to help Sean out.

Otherwise, Sean would have been taken away by now.

“Thank you, Mr. Freeman.”

Thinking of this, Sean raised his hand slightly and thanked Colton.

“There’s no need to thank me.

“I’m just here following orders as well.”

Colton took a few glances around the office, and then he was about to leave with Damian.

Sean did not try to urge him to stay.

He knew very well that when dealing with people of this level, it was better to get straight to the point.

By beating around the bush, it would make the other part feel displeased.

Damian shot Sean a complicated look and quickly followed Colton from behind.

“You may continue to operate your company as normal.

“As long as you don’t break the law, you’ll be fine.”

Colton said before leaving.
