“Mr. Lennon, the Old Master says that it’s true that businessmen only pursue benefits.
“However, one would still have to determine what kind of benefit they’d gain and what kind of situation they’re in.
“He asked me to tell you that even if we lose, he has no regrets.”
Homer turned around and looked at Sean intently.
“I won’t lose.
“You guys won’t lose either.”
Sean’s gaze was extremely calm. The decisive tone of his voice left no space for objection either.
“Alright!”
Homer nodded. The few of them then clinked their glasses lightly.
Soon after, more and more people entered the gala venue.
Meanwhile, everyone, the Quinn family included, joined the larger group of people.
Sean’s group consisted of extremely few people since the start.
The people on Sean’s side basically included some of the people with the highest profiles in the social circle of River City.
Sean did not know all of them, but Homer and Chadwick introduced him to each of them in soft voices.
Although the main people in charge of some companies could not attend the event personally, they had sent over their representatives.
This showed just how influential Jen-Bond Holdings was in River City.
After Jon and Quill Zimmer finished greeting all the guests, they returned to the main hall as well.
“Mr. Zimmer!”
“Young Master Zimmer!”
Suddenly, plenty of people got up to greet them.
Meanwhile, Jon simply glanced at Sean and walked over to the crowd.
Everyone greeted Jon and showered him with praise. Jon and Quill could not help but feel like they were on cloud nine.
Families that were once much more powerful than the Zimmers spoke to Jon in courteous tones.
“Please take your seats, everyone. Mr. Thomson will be here soon.”
Jon waved his hand and gestured for everyone to take their seats.
Meanwhile, Quill turned around and pointed his middle finger at Sean.
Once James arrived, Sean would become the public enemy of everyone in River City.
Therefore, Quill felt beyond overjoyed right now.
Everyone on Jon’s side was talking loudly and jovially.
Meanwhile, the people on Sean’s side were relatively quieter.
It was as if the winner had already been determined. The battle had ended before it began.
Chadwick started feeling anxious once again.
He had distanced himself from so many companies and families just because of Sean. He had even offended Jen-Bond Holdings.
Was this really worth it?
However, there was no way back right now.
He had to stay seated even if he could not sit still.
“Mr. Thomson is here!”
Suddenly, someone shouted out. Everyone got up at once.
James smiled as he slowly walked into the gala venue from backstage.
He was dressed in a luxurious Western suit. It cost at least 15 thousand dollars.
Even his tie cost at least 1500 dollars.
A luxury, limited edition watch shone brightly on his wrist.
Meanwhile, two long-legged beauties in gowns flanked both his sides as he walked in.
As soon as James appeared, the atmosphere in the hall grew heated at once.
“Welcome, Mr. Thomson!”
