Chapter 435: Chapter 435: Undercurrents Surging!
Capital City, late at night!

In a private hospital in Capital City, Jonah Jones, whose knees were shattered by White Mitchell, is lying on a hospital bed in anger, his legs encased in cast and suspended high, making him look somewhat comical.

“White Mitchell! I swear we will never coexist! I will return today’s humiliation on you a hundredfold!” Jonah Jones grinds his teeth as he speaks, and at this very moment, the door of the ward slowly opened.

Caleb Robert walked into the ward with a subordinate, carrying bunches of gifts and a big smile.

“So, you’re Caleb Robert who just called me?” Jonah Jones gives Caleb Robert a cold glance.

After all, the Robert Family pales in comparison to the Jones Family, and moreover, Caleb is just a shareholder of the Robert Family and not the actual person in charge. So naturally, Jones didn’t have to be friendly to Caleb.

On the contrary, someone like Caleb should be respectful to him.

Caleb Robert nodded at those words and said in a flattering tone, “Yes, yes, Mr. Jones, I’m the one who called you.”

Seeing Caleb Robert behaving so respectfully, Jonah Jones nods his head and then says with some arrogance, “You came quickly. Now, tell me what you want.”

Upon hearing this, Caleb Robert scurried forward and looked at Jonah Jones’ cast-covered legs with a simulated sympathetic expression, saying, “What a shame about your legs! That bastard White Mitchell is such a brute!

He’s a total disgrace! People like him need to be brutally taught a lesson. They should clean up their act and get out of Capital City.

How could that damn White Mitchell do this to you, Mr. Jones? You are the stalwart of the Jones Family third branch, you deserve some respect. White Mitchell is a bastard, a total bastard…”

As Caleb Robert was talking, tears welled up in his eyes. He was so moved by his own words that some tears slipped down his cheeks. To a stranger, it could look like he just lost his parents.

“You also know that rascal White Mitchell!?” Hearing White Mitchell’s name reignited Jonah Jones’s temper he had just managed to suppress.

Caleb Robert pretended to nod sadly, “Mr. Jones, what you may not understand is that White Mitchell is a complete lawless man. My cousin Lincoln Robert simply got into a disagreement with him and nearly got thrown off a building of several tens of floors high.

Unfortunately, our company chairman is old and into retirement, his granddaughter Sana Robert is not only incompetent but also overly trusts the outsider from Sayon.

You don’t know this, but because of this guy’s appearance, the atmosphere in the Robert Group is very tense. Everyone is worried about being his next target.”

Caleb Robert pretended to be distressed and then switched the topic back to Jonah Jones, “Ah…It’s a shame that the Robert Group doesn’t have a dignified and respected person like you, Mr. Jones. Unfortunately, though, the Robert Group is not big in scale and, I fear, not up to your standard.”

After saying that, Caleb Robert sighed with his face covered, but peeked through his fingers to observe the change in Jonah Jones’s expression.

Jonah Jones, of course, understood exactly what Caleb Robert was trying to convey, but he pretended to ask humbly, “Caleb, isn’t that going a bit overboard? After all, the Robert’s Group is your family’s enterprise. I’m an outsider. How can I interfere with your family’s business?

Please do not mention it again, especially not in front of others. It could put your situation at risk.”

Caleb Robert, sensing a promising response, went on obsequiously, “It doesn’t matter at all. If the Robert Group could be managed by a respected person like you, it would be better than falling into the hands of a young girl like Sana.

Mr. Jones, please don’t refuse. The Robert Group really needs someone like you to take charge at this critical time.

If you could lend us a hand, you would be our savior. Steadying a collapsing building, standing against a breaking tide, this is like doing good and accumulating virtue. If it were in the past, we would have to build you a statue and a temple for the Robert Group.”

These words of flattery from Caleb Robert were exactly what Jonah Jones wanted to hear, but he still put on a modest face and said, “Ah… well, since you’ve shown such kindness, if I continue to refuse, I might come off as being ungrateful.

I suppose I could make an exception once and help out your Robert Group.”

Upon hearing this, Caleb Robert immediately cheered up and promised on the spot: “Don’t worry, Mr. Jones, our Robert Group will definitely not let you work for nothing. After all is done, we will offer 60% of our stock to you. By then, you will be the chairman of our Robert Group!”

“Caleb, aren’t you treating me like an outsider? You shouldn’t say these things.”

Seeing this, the flattering look on Caleb Robert’s face became even more obvious, and he presented all of his plans to Jonah Jones.

During this, Jonah Jones also provided some of his own opinions to ensure this cooperation couldn’t fail.

…

On the other hand, while Caleb Robert and Jonah Jones were in collusion with each other in a foreign trade company in Capital City, a man with a slick-back hairstyle and a well-fitted suit sat in an office, staring at the screen in front of him.

“Greedy Wolf, John, listen carefully. Pluto may have failed. You two will take over his duty. But, be cautious. The capabilities of the Northern Territory Command are not to be underestimated. You can’t make the same mistake as Pluto did. Are we clear?” Yama, the gang leader of Deathz, commanded.

Very soon, there was a response from the computer, “Boss, don’t worry. You will hear good news in two days!”
