Chapter 188 Business Growth Collective
The Four Great Families formed the Business Growth Collective, with the purpose of going up against the Serpent Group.
Everyone knew that Larry from the Serpent Group had an unusual relationship with Chloe. Today was the establishment of Chloe's new company, Global Nexus Group, and the Business Growth Collective was here to cause trouble.
Specifically, to cause trouble for Larry.
Everlasting Group's factory and office building sites were all rented. Thomas stood up and said, "We have a three-year lease agreement. You have no right to demand we leave even if you have the land deeds."
"Really?" Remy said, smiling smiled faintly.
"By the way, you probably don't know my name. I'm Remy Hall, a vice president of the Business Growth Collective. On behalf of the Business Growth Collective, I'm here to announce that this land belongs to us and the previous contract is void."
As Remy spoke, he glanced at Larry, who was nearby.
That fateful day at the Bennett family cemetery, he had personally witnessed members of the Hall family and other families being brutally killed by Larry.
He walked toward Larry.
"Larry, aren't you afraid of people finding out what a monster you truly are?" Remy said, staring at Larry somberly.
"You killed my family. I swear I will tear you to pieces. The real show is just beginning."
Larry looked at the murderous Remy and smiled faintly.
Remy didn't waste any more words with Larry. He turned to Chloe, Thomas, and the others.
He said in a cold tone, "Today is the final deadline. Tomorrow morning, we will level this area. If you don't want to suffer, you'd better move out by the end of the day."
Remy then turned and left, followed by other members of the Business Growth Collective.
Chloe's expression gradually became more solemn.
The Lewis family members remained silent.
William asked quietly, "Larry, what do we do now?"
"What else can we do?" Larry said calmly. "This is just the beginning. Let's leave things as they are for now. As you said, the Business Growth Collective is just one of the challenges we'll face. There are also several families from Aurora Citadel that also stand united, and now there's the Five-State Business Alliance and the Prosperity Business Alliance. The situation in Sunset City will become very chaotic. Don't act yet."
He was no longer Black Dragon and had no privileges. Now, he was just the chairman of the Serpent Group. Only a few people knew he was also the man behind the Epoch Group.
Chloe's issue was a minor one. He planned to ignore it.
Just then, Victor stood up, leaning on his cane, and walked up to Chloe. He said, "Chloe, you should quickly distance yourself from Larry. He can't even protect himself now. He's no longer Black Dragon, and those big shots won't respect him. Free won't do anything for a businessman. The Serpent Group can't compete with the Business Growth Collective."
He then turned and left with the Lewis family members. He already knew where the big shots all stood.
No big shot in Sunset City had any respect left for Larry.
Instead, the Business Growth Collective had come to cause trouble.
This was a disaster for both Global Nexus Group and the Serpent Group.
Chloe felt troubled. She looked at Larry sitting not far away, walked over, and asked quietly, "Mr. Bennett, what do we do now?"
Larry said calmly, "The Business Growth Collective is targeting me. They took down Global Nexus Group far too easily. Even if you have a rental contract, it won't help. If you want to minimize losses, do as Remy said and move all valuable machines out by the end of today."
As Larry spoke, he stood up. "I have many enemies: the Business Growth Collective formed by the Four Great Families, the nationally renowned Prosperity Business Alliance, and the Harmony Alliance Circle. I offended all these big shots when I was still Black Dragon. Now that I'm no longer Black Dragon, they will all try to take their revenge on me. It's better for you to distance yourself from me now."
After saying this, Larry turned and left. William and Sarah followed closely behind.
Soon, Global Nexus Group became a desolate place once more, with only Chloe, Thomas, and a few employees remaining.
"Do we really have to move the equipment?" Chloe said, still unwilling to do so. She had planned to develop the business. It was supposed to be a fresh start for Global Nexus Group.
However, it seemed to have ended before it could even begin.
"What should we do, ma'am?" an employee asked.
Chloe thought for a moment and said, "Immediately rent a warehouse and move the equipment there. We can start again with what we have. I also have some money of my own; we can find a new site and rebuild the factory."
"We still have many unfinished orders." Drake said, with a troubled expression. "It will be a breach of contract if we move out now and fail to fulfill them on time. What's more, we have a rental contract so we could win if we go to court."
Chloe sighed, "Do you know who we're up against? It's the Business Growth Collective, an alliance of the Four Great Families. The other three families are each as powerful as the Serpent Group even with the bankruptcy of the Hall family. Competing with the Business Growth Collective will only end badly for us."
"So, we just move out?" Tommy also said unwillingly.
"Yes. I'll talk to Everlife Pharmaceuticals and the Legion Group to see if we can terminate the contracts peacefully."With Chloe's instructions, Thomas and the others had nothing more to say.
The day marked the establishment of Global Nexus Group.
Chloe had invited many prominent figures, but none of them came. Instead, the uninvited Business Growth Collective showed up, only to cause trouble.
Outside Global Nexus Group, there were quite a few reporters, who had captured everything that had gone down.
The news spread quickly throughout Sunset City.
[Breaking news: Global Nexus Group established, only Larry from the Serpent Group attended the launch. No other prominent figures were present, but the Business Growth Collective came to cause trouble. The Business Growth Collective acquired the land deed for the Global Nexus Group's factory and demanded they move out by the end of today.]
[Shocking! Business Growth Collective competes with the Serpent Group.]
[Business Growth Collective Vice President Remy taunts former Black Dragon Larry, saying Global Nexus Group is just the beginning, and the real show is yet to come.]
Meanwhile, Larry had already returned to the Serpent Group. He sat in his chair in the chairman's office on the top floor, lightly tapping his fingers on the desk.
William asked, "Chairman, how should we respond to the Business Growth Collective?"
Larry looked at William and said, "William, from now on, you will be in charge of the Serpent Group."
William immediately refused. "I can't do that, sir."
"I just want you to manage it. You can make decisions on all matters without consulting me."
"As you wish," William said, finally agreeing.
Larry removed the mask from his face and casually tossed it aside.
He then left the Serpent Group.
He knew that things would soon turn chaotic in Sunset City.
Various forces would emerge after his resignation.
Whether it was the families from Aurora Citadel, the Business Growth Collective, the Prosperity Business Alliance, or the Five-State Business Alliance, he was not afraid.
He had nothing to fear from them.
He was waiting for the true elites from Aurora Citadel.
He hoped they would get involved. Only then could the current system of the Summer Nation be broken. Only then could the various forces be restructured.
This was the goal of the highest authority, and also his goal. He needed those top families to get involved to uncover the truth behind the Bennett family's demise.
