YM778.TV Chapter 322: 322: Is Leonardo Kim in Trouble?
But he quickly adjusted himself. In his view, this was nothing more than a ploy by White Mitchell.
Did he really think that by bragging a bit, he would believe him?
How naive!
He was now in partnership with Leonardo Kim, and there is no way Leonardo Kim wouldn’t show up. What a joke.
“White Mitchell, keep bluffing. We will see if you can laugh later! Hmph!” Alan Austin snorted coldly, showing a disdainful face, and returned to the celebration of the Imperial Group with his men.
However, as soon as he returned to the celebration, Grandy Anderson approached him anxiously: “Alan, we still can’t reach Leonardo Kim. Even his men have now lost contact.”
“What? Still can’t reach him? What the hell is Leonardo Kim up to? The celebration is about to begin, and the person in charge of a construction team hasn’t arrived yet. Damn!” Alan Austin’s face became gloomy instantly, and he began to resent Leonardo Kim.
Seeing this, Grandy Anderson said nervously, “Do you think something might have happened to Leonardo Kim?”
Something happened?
Hearing this, Alan Austin immediately scolded with a dark face, “Shut up! What could possibly go wrong with Leonardo Kim, don’t be a doomsayer.
Quickly send Mr. Anderson to Kim Village, tell him to bring Leonardo Kim here. Fuck, he must have had a hangover from drinking last night.
This Leonardo Kim, how could he pull this off on such an important day? Once I secure the Nezzi New City project, I need to knock some sense into them!”
Just as Alan Austin was upset with Leonardo Kim, Messiah Anderson appeared at the celebration of the Imperial Group with a panic-stricken face.
As soon as Alan Austin saw Mr. Anderson, he couldn’t help but say, “Mr. Anderson, you came just in time. I was about to find you, what in the world is going on with Leonardo Kim? The celebration is about to begin, why has no one shown up?”
Upon hearing this, Mr. Anderson’s face became very solemn, and he hastily pulled Alan Austin to a corner.
Then, Mr. Anderson said, “Something’s gone horribly wrong, something happened to Leonardo Kim. Last night, the entire Kim Village was raided by Nezzi combat command!
Leonardo Kim was killed on the spot and the others were arrested!”
What… what?
The Nezzi combat command raided Kim Village?
Leonardo Kim was killed on the spot?
This…
Upon hearing this news, Alan Austin’s facial expression froze instantly, and he trembled involuntarily, “What the hell happened? Why would Leonardo Kim provoke the Nezzi combat command at this critical moment? Isn’t this just seeking death?”
“Ugh…” Mr. Anderson sighed with a helpless expression and said, “How would I know? I have no idea what happened.”
“Useless!” Alan Austin cursed silently, his face as dark as the bottom of a pot. The man looked very irritable.
Leonardo Kim, this bastard, why did he have to cause trouble at this critical moment? Isn’t this just adding fuel to the fire?
It’s bad enough to cause trouble, but he had to provoke the Nezzi combat command.
It’s like an old man hanging himself because he thinks he’s lived too long!
But, it’s too late to lament now. The main priority is how to make this celebration a success.
Thinking about this, Alan Austin forced down his anger and said, “Since Leonardo Kim is gone, what about the construction teams in Kim Village?
Who’s in charge of Kim Village now? Can the construction teams still show up today?”
Upon hearing this, Mr. Anderson replied with a solemn face, “It’s rumored that a man surnamed Shen has taken over Kim Village. I’m still looking into who he is.
I sent someone to contact him, and he said he would come to the hotel with his men. They should be on their way now.”
Hearing this news, Alan Austin breathed a sigh of relief. The death of Leonardo Kim was unfortunate, but as long as the construction team’s resources were still available, things weren’t too bad.
“You should quickly arrange to greet him. Make sure to maintain good relations with this Mr. Shen. We cannot afford any more mishaps!” Alan Austin instructed.
Upon hearing this, Messiah Anderson immediately gathered his team and went to the hotel lobby to greet him, not daring to be the slightest bit negligent.
At this time, construction teams that did not reside in Kim Village began to appear. Not only from the Imperial Group, but also the Jones Group had guests arriving in succession.
Seeing this, Alan Austin gritted his teeth in anger. He cursed Leonardo Kim a hundred times, wishing he could dig him up from his grave and give him a good thrashing.
If not for Leonardo Kim, would he have been so passive now?
While Alan Austin was gritting his teeth, Archer Bright, the chairman of the Bright Corporation, appeared at the ceremony with his son, Jacob Bright.
What’s more, Jacob Bright even brought his fiancée, Snowden Jones.
A construction team of the Bright family’s caliber would not normally catch the eye of Alan Austin. However, under these circumstances, Alan Austin needed someone to back him up.
So, Alan Austin personally greeted them.
Upon receiving a welcome from Alan Austin, Archer Bright and the others were visibly surprised and flattered.
In order to further curry favor with Alan Austin, Archer Bright had Jacob Bright take Snowden Jones to the Jones Group’s ceremony next door, planning to severely ridicule Sherry Jones.
Jacob Bright had a playful look on his face upon hearing this. He took Snowden Jones to the Jones Group’s ceremony.
At this time, there were some guests at the Jones Group’s ceremony, but they were few and far between, making it seem quite deserted.
Seeing this, Snowden Jones couldn’t help but ridicule: “Oh, is this our Jones Group’s partnership celebration? Look at this grand setup, how come so few people showed up?
If you need more bodies to fill the room, you should’ve said so earlier. The Bright Corporation has plenty of manual laborers they could send over. They are definitely better than these stray cats and dogs you invited!
This shabbiness is a disgrace to our Jones Group!”
The Jones Group members who were originally receiving guests could not help but grimace upon hearing Snowden Jones’s words.
Obviously, she was here to rub salt in their wounds.
“Ma’am, I can have them tossed out right now!” Elijah Bailey said indignantly.
Sherry Jones shook her head helplessly upon hearing this, “No need, causing a scene won’t do us any good. I’ll deal with them, Elijah. You go ahead and usher the guests in.”
After instructing Elijah Bailey, Sherry Jones walked directly towards Jacob Bright and Snowden Jones.
“You’ve said your piece and made your jokes, can you please leave now?” Sherry Jones asked coldly.
Leave?
Upon hearing this, Snowden Jones gave a cold laugh and retorted sarcastically, “Why should I leave? The Jones Group doesn’t belong to you alone. I’m also a Jones, so why can’t I come?
Besides, look at this sparse gathering for your celebration. If I come, you should count yourselves lucky.
What are you still doing standing there? Why aren’t you welcoming us? Is this how you, Sherry Jones, treat your distinguished guests?”
“You!”
Sherry Jones was momentarily at a loss for words. Her face turned red with anger. At this moment, White Mitchell, who had been sitting not far away, overheard the commotion. He slowly walked over and said sarcastically, “Distinguished guests? What kind of distinguished guests do you think you are?
The scale of the Bright Family is not even enough to secure a seat here. Get lost!”
Hehe… Our Bright family isn’t good enough?
Jacob Bright, who was standing to the side, was displeased upon hearing these words. He sneered and said condescendingly, “White Mitchell, be careful not to tongue-tie yourself with your big words. Look at your pitiful setup.
Who can compare with our Bright family’s scale? Can anyone dare to compete with us?”
