Sawyer had a brooding expression on his
face. Although he was not saying
anything, he felt a deep surge of
annoyance within himself too.
Joe was the only one who was still calm.
“Calm down. The situation is what it is
now, and there’s no point in us going off i
na huff. We might as well think of ways to
resolve the problem.”
Sawyer felt even more infuriated when he
heard what Joe said…
He could not stop himself from looking at
Joe.
The old fox had sold his industries in
Harbor City to the other two families to
pay for his collaboration. As such, he had
sold off most of his domestic assets
except for his telecommunication
company.
Thus, this meant that Joe Langdon and
Fongroup had suffered the least losses
after everything JW had done in Harbor
City.
Sawyer could not help but wonder if the
old fox had long since guessed this would
happen.
“How about we seize the chance to retract
our contracts to short sell stocks in
Harbor City?” Sawyer cleared his mind of
his frenzied thoughts and made a
suggestion.
The atmosphere in the study grew even
tenser when he said that.
Kennedy said slowly, “We were sure that
the news of our joint venture would cause
a massive drop in Harbor City stocks, so w
e raised a large sum of money to short sell
our stocks in Harbor City. However, it
seems that Jasper saw through our plans.”
When Kennedy finished speaking, he
turned to Joe and said, “We still have time
to withdraw now. The stock market isn’t
open yet, so the order we submitted has
not been finalized. If we wait for the stock
market to open, it’ll be too late.”
Joe furrowed his eyebrows together
slightly as he said, “We’ve spent so much
time prepping to short sell, and we’ve
sacrificed a lot for it too. If we give up now, not only will our previous efforts all go to waste, but do you
two think that Jasper will stop whatever he’s doing in Harbor City now just because we give up o In
shorting them?”
Both Sawyer and Kennedy fell silent when they heard that question.
They were forced to admit that at this point, there was no stopping the alliance between them versus
the alliance between Jasper and the Harbor City big wigs. Giving up would not result in peace but in
even further suppression.
They could no longer afford to lose.
“The problem now doesn’t just lay in Hope Group and their real estate industry, as the Atticus family’s
rubber industry. has been impacted too. Do you know how many rubber-related companies were
established in Harbor City just one hour after the Harbor City government announced they were
lowering the criteria to enter the rubber industry? 78! A whole 7 8!”
The more Sawyer spoke, the angrier he
became. He was nearly roaring as he said,
“The rubber industry used to not be something that anyone or any company could work in. The Atticus
family called the shots in Harbor City. There wouldn’t b e anyone who dared work in the rubber industry
without gaining our approval first!
“But look what’s happening now. All sorts of people are dabbling in the business now, and even worse,
a third of the upstream and downstream companies that used to work with the Atticus family have gone
ahead and registered themselves as an import company for rubber!
“There are also people hiding in the shadows and purposely lowering the price of rubber. As they lower
the rubber prices, they use that money to locate suppliers who used to work with the Atticus family and
tempt them with the higher fees to give up their partnership with the Atticus family and work with them
instead!
“I’m willing to bet that that scumbag son of a b*tch Jasper Laine came up with these tricks. He’s the
only person who would be this shameless!”
The corners of Kennedy’s mouth twitched as he listened to Sawyer rage.
In terms of being shameless, it seemed that the three of them were no better either.
“Everyone suffered losses. It’s not just the Atticus family. What’s the point in being so angry?” Joe
asked with a frown o In his face.
