The Guardian's Sword

Chapter 1428

The Collins household in Joules Town.

Everyone heard about everything that had happened in the past couple of days.

Although Old Master Collins had not left the house for a long time, he was still the first to know about

everything that happened in the outside world.

Right then, Old Master Collins and his eldest son, Hubert, were seated in the study.

Both of them were equally speechless.

“I didn’t expect him to be that capable.”

After some time, Old Master Collins was the first to speak up.

He truly did not expect Sean to be capable of going against Billion Trees Real Estate to the extent that

they did not even have the opportunity to launch a counterattack.

Sean’s means of doing so shocked Old Master Collins even more.

He did everything at just the right time. He worked towards his goal step by step, and each of his

schemes built up on each other.

“However, he’s just that capable.

“Besides, I don’t think that he managed to do it just because he was lucky.”

Hubert sighed lightly and spoke up while shaking his head.

William could not bring himself to retort what Hubert had said.

Lennon Real Estate had not gone against Billion Trees Real Estate because Sean was lucky.

All of Sean’s plans seemed pretty useless at their initial phase.

However, the huge effects of his plans were finally clear to everyone today.

He took advantage of the power of public opinion by exposing Billion Trees Real Estate for delaying the

handover of their property. Billion Trees Real Estate was in a state of distress due to this incident.

He then collected evidence of Billion Trees Real Estate’s crimes behind everyone’s backs and contacted

a few important figures from the government office. He successfully took Jimmy Lidell down straight

away.

When the government office sent their men over to capture Jimmy, he was still thinking about how he

should appease the general public.

However, he did not expect Sean to set up a fatal trap without anyone knowing.

There was no way for Jimmy to escape.

“One must always hit somebody where it hurts. Sean Lennon is a genius.”

Old Master Collins could not help but let out an exclamation.

At the same time, he felt slightly uncomfortable.

If only he knew that Sean was capable of such great things in the past.

Perhaps he would have treated Sean differently back then.

Sean replied intently while nodding lightly.

“I’m curious about something. How did you get to know Mr. Zackman?

“Actually, you don’t need my help since you know Mr. Zackman.

“With a single word from him, Lennon Real Estate will naturally progress smoothly in Joules Town.”

Zane asked Sean casually after humming deeply for a couple of seconds.

“Mr. Zackman is my friend.

“You’re my friend as well.”

Sean reached out his hand and tapped the table as he gave him a simple answer.

Zane pondered on his words. He then smiled without saying anything else in return. Clever people did

not have to be too direct when they talked to each other.

Nine a.m.

The news of Billion Trees Real Estate going bankrupt had spread everywhere.

Some people did not believe in the news when it first spread out.

After all, Billion Trees Real Estate was still a superstar enterprise within the real estate industry of Joules

Town.

How could it go bankrupt just like that?

However, no one had any suspicions after the news was verified by official media.

Billion Trees Real Estate must have fallen. This was the hard truth.

Insiders within the business circle knew that the downfall of a corporation will bring forth various

negative impacts, but it might also bring plenty of opportunities and benefits.

Besides, the person that caused the downfall of Billion Trees Real Estate must be the greatest

benefactor of them all.

Lennon Real Estate had naturally taken the win.

They would definitely rise to power and success like a black horse.

He did not have the money nor did he have any connections. He also did not have a powerful

background.

Back then, the Collins family could treat Sean however they wished.

That was because they had higher statuses than Sean. They were more influential in Joules Town than

he was as well.

Sean still was not at the same level as the members of the Collins family.

However, he was now a lot of times more powerful than he had been back then. He was no longer the

same person anymore!

It would definitely be inappropriate for William to treat Sean the way he did before.

“You’re asking me to change? What is there for me to change?

“Sean Lennon was just lucky. Does he expect me to invite him over personally?”

Old Master Collins was an extremely stubborn man. He was not willing to give in to Sean at all.

“I’m not asking you to invite him over. I meant that I’d invite him over instead.”

Hubert shook his head slowly and explained to William.

“You’re going to invite…”

“You just need to give him a call, and he’ll rush over immediately.”

“Although he’s now a little more well-known among the business circle of Joules Town, he’s still nothing

in comparison to the Collins family.”

William huffed and spoke to him in an extremely haughty tone.

“Do you mean that I can invite him over?”

Hubert took out his phone while speaking.

“Pay attention to your choice of words. We’re notifying him.

“We’re not inviting him over.”

William shook his head. His haughty demeanor remained.

After all, the Collins family was of rather high status in Joules Town.

Being able to have a meal in the Collins household was something that one could boast about for a long

time.

Therefore, William thought that Sean should be honored that they were notifying him to come over.

Sean should put down everything he had on his schedule and rush over to meet with them at once.

“I got it.”

Hubert nodded. He then found Sean’s number and dialed it.

“Hey, Mr. Lennon. Hubert Collins speaking.

“We met previously.”

The call went through. Hubert immediately greeted Sean with a chuckle.
