Chapter 331
This is a direct threat!
Connor Hampton doesn't care what anyone else thinks. He just stared at them coldly and did not hold back at all.
"Pick between the Hampton family and the Palmer Group. Once you're done selecting, you'll see the results."
How dare!
"I said I could make sure you had to stay in Fairbanks, and the Hampton family was really strong enough to do this!"
No one doubted the Hampton family's ability to do this. The Hampton family were the industry leaders in the southeast region, so even though the Palmer Group was growing rapidly, they were still a long way from the Hamptons.
They don't really need to think too hard about this.
If they chose the Hampton family, they would only betray Palmers and lose some in Fairbanks. But the Hampton family could provide access to other markets.
But if they choose the Palmer Group, then it is almost as good as choosing bankruptcy!
The Hampton family would definitely make sure they could not set foot outside Fairbanks at all.
Many people began to doubt.
It is a matter of keeping their business alive, so they cannot be swayed by clandestine attachments or agreements.
"Young Master Hampton, didn't you go too far by doing this?" Someone suddenly stood among the crowd and looked furious.
"You want us all to take sides just because you have a personal feud with the Palmer Group? But I don't think any of us offended you, did we?"
Connor Hampton looked at this man, but he didn't seem to have any impression of him.
"What are you doing? You dare to ask me?"
"I'm Axel Group chairman, David Cameron!"
David Cameron's face and ears were all red because he was so angry.
The plant was revived only because the Palmer Group was willing to open up the market and expand its model.
But Hampton's family is now asking him to betray the Palmer Group.
How could he betray the company that saved him?
If he betrays the Palmer Group, then how will he answer to all his grateful workers? They will think that Axel Group is an ungrateful company and even harms the company that has helped them a lot.
"Axel Group?" Connor Hampton said with disdain. "I've never heard of it, and I don't think I need to hear it anymore."
"You…"
David Cameron was furious and accused Connor Hampton, but he could not say a word.
"It's too late for you to choose the Hampton family now, I won't take you into account" Connor Hampton laughed coldly. "Missed. Since you support the Palmers, you can die with them."
David Cameron was so angry that he was shaking, but there was nothing he could do.
Compared to the Hampton family, he was just a small ant and the Hamptons family could easily crush him.
He angrily clenched his fists, then left without saying a word.
"Who else?" Connor Hampton stood up and slammed the table. "Anyone who still wants to support Palmer Group can get out of here too!"
Then he took his phone and made a call.
"Decide all retailers working with the Axel Group from Riverport. I want them to go bankrupt and close in one day!"
He deliberately spoke very loudly to shock everyone in the meeting room.
Anyone who dared to fight against him would end up bankrupt!
"I. I chose the Hamptons."
"I also chose the Hamptons."
"I hope Young Master Hampton can help us."
……
All of these big bosses quickly nodded and made this choice with awkward smiles even if they were unwilling.
They have no choice!
It's been hard to survive with the big players in the industry.
At least if they offended the Palmer Group, Diane was kind and would not kill them. But the Hampton family?
They would absolutely use any means and means to force them to close the shop!
Chapter 332
Connor Hampton was pleased with everyone's reaction.
He wanted to use a gentler method to take down the Palmer Group, but it seemed like he had to put in a lot of effort.
"Diane, Diane, look what happened! Who will trust you or support your company now? MUAHAHA!" Connor Hampton laughs crazy.
After he decided on all the companies that worked with Palmer Group, how would they develop from Fairbanks?
They can dream!
Trying to expand into the southeast region is just their wishful thinking. Now he would destroy them if they even tried to get out of this city.
"Young Master Hampton, they are here," one of his subordinates whispered into his ear. "Are we moving?"
An evil glint flashed across Connor Hampton's face. Skilled fighters are here!
Now not only could he deal with the Palmer Group, but he could also deal with Diane and Ethan. They can forget about having a branch in Fairbanks.
"Take action now!" Connor Hampton said. "Send Diane to my hotel!"
"Yes, Young Master Hampton!"
Connor Hampton laughed even more crazily.
He's gonna break Diane and get revenge on Ethan!
...
Meanwhile.
The Fairbanks Palmer Group branch looks more like a decent office.
Ethan and Diane come to solve some problems.
"Palmer CEO! Axel Group boss David Cameron wants to meet you, he said there is something very important to talk to you about" Ashley said as he walked in.
Diane had just finished signing a stack of documents and was stretching her neck and massaging her shoulders. He deliberately makes a lot of noise to make it sound like he's in pain to get Ethan to massage his shoulders, but Ethan continues to eat his apples on the couch and seems unaware of anything.
"Send him in."
Diane pursed her nose and glared at Ethan. He had just teased her once the night before and she had become extremely evil now.
"Palmer CEO! CEO Palmer! Bad news!"
David Cameron came in a hurry into the office. His expression was so anxious, he looked like he was about to cry.
He almost tripped at the door but did not care. She ran so fast and was really just crying.
"CEO Cameron, what's wrong? What's going on?"
Dian surprised. He had never seen David Cameron so anxious before.
Axel Group was the first supplier to cooperate with Palmer Group in Fairbanks, and Diane's impression of David Cameron was excellent. He was a very responsible businessman and even if he faced the difficulty of keeping his factory running, he would never do anything that went against his conscience.
So what could make it like this?
"CEO Palmer, Hampton's Young Master.that terrible man! He's got us cornered!" David Cameron's eyes are red. "He called all suppliers and retailers and told us to choose to follow him or the Palmer Group. If we follow the Palmer Group, then he will decide all our business and force us to close!"
Diane was a little surprised, and there was anger on her face.
"How could Connor Hampton do such a thing?"
"I refused to follow him, so he .. he immediately used his family's influence to block all my business!"
How could David Cameron not be anxious now?
David Cameron's phone suddenly rang. He picked it up and after listening to the other party, his eyes became even more teary.
"What's? All our payments are due? Our retailer has breached all our contracts? We don't have any more funds for the factory?"
He was a middle-aged man, but he was angry and anxious, so his tears would soon spill.
David Cameron's hand started shaking. "A..I'll think of a way! I'll find a way out! Entertain the staff, there will be no problems! There won't be any problems!"
"I vouch for it with my life!"
David Cameron hung up the phone, then knelt with a thud.
Dian scared. "CEO Cameron, what are you doing?!"
"CEO Palmer, we..we are really desperate this time!" David Cameron's voice raspy. The Hampton family has pushed them into a dead end.
"What's this serious problem? Why is it a matter of life and death now?" Ethan had been silent all along, and now he threw the apple core accurately into the trash and wiped his hands with a tissue while calmly continuing, "Is a $1 billion investment enough for you?"
Chapter 333
"1..1 billion?"
David Cameron was shocked. He thinks he heard wrong.
$1 billion!
The factory is not even worth $100 million and Ethan wants to invest $1 billion?
"Why? Not enough?" Ethan raised one eyebrow. "Axel Group could be a supplier of Palmer Group. As long as you keep supplying to the Palmer Group, then it is enough to guarantee your future expansion."
"Regarding $1 billion, it will be my personal investment and will have nothing to do with Palmer Group. The two companies will remain partners on paper, is there a problem?"
"No, no problem, but ..."
David Cameron stammered over his words because he still couldn't believe it. The Axel Group is on the verge of bankruptcy and really can't joke right now.
Even Palmer Group is unlikely to make $1 billion in place for investment, right?
"Why are you still hesitating?" Ethan frowned a little. "You're a grown man but you're so wishy-washy! If you want money, just say it. Otherwise, get lost!"
"I want it! I want it!"
David Cameron immediately nodded his head vigorously like a chicken picking up seeds from the ground. He was afraid to miss this opportunity. Even if it turned out to be fake, but even Diane nodded, so it couldn't possibly be fake.
But Diane nodded as a natural reaction. He didn't really realize what was going on.
If anyone asked if he wanted $ 1 billion, he would definitely nod.
"Wait what?" Diane suddenly realized what was going on. "You invested $1 billion into his company?"
"Is that too little?" ask Ethan. "I'm not sure what a good number is. Otherwise, $2 billion? Or $5 billion?"
David Cameron felt his soul was about to leave his body.
"Not too little, enough, enough!" David Cameron hastily cut. He was afraid that if Ethan said one more number, he would die from the shock on the spot.
He felt like he was dreaming.
"Then we're ready to go. Send me your company's bank account number and I'll transfer the money to you now."
"Now?"
David Cameron was shocked again. He stuttered, "I .. I haven't made an investment contract and I don't have a company stamp either."
"No need," said Ethan impatiently. "Just $ 1 billion, no need to sign any contract. As long as you know."
No one ever dared to cheat him about his money and that was nothing to Ethan at all. He was completely unperturbed by this amount.
David Cameron was still dreaming. He gives Ethan his company's bank account number and Ethan uses his phone to transfer $1 billion. But when he gets a nervous and excited and somewhat frightened phone call from his finance department, David Cameron realizes this is not at all a dream.
$1 billion!
$1 billion! How many years did he have to work for his factory to make this kind of money?
Ethan doesn't even blink an eye and decides to invest in her.
He did not bother to sign the contract or ask any further questions, as if he was donating money to her.
How much money does Ethan actually have?
How much money does the Palmer Group have?!
"Mrs. Hunt.." jakun David Cameron moved up and down and his voice trembled slightly. "Axel Group will go wherever the Palmer Group goes, and if the Palmer Group needs something, Axel Group will do everything we can to get it done, whatever it takes!"
David Cameron is not stupid. Ethan dared to give him $1 billion because he was sure David Cameron would not run away with the money.
Moreover, he had no intention of running away at all.
He will take the Axel Group to a higher level and prove to the Hampton family that they will do well without the Hampton family!
Ethan remained calm and waved his hand. "Alright now, just do what you're supposed to do and the Palmer Group will make sure you get good rewards."
"Yes! Yes, I'll make sure!"
David Cameron doesn't know how he got out of Diane's office. He only felt his legs were still a little weak and slightly drifting, and he could not even stand properly.
He could only remember how Ethan said $ 1 billion while casually wiping his finger.
He's a real tycoon!
The door closes behind David Cameron.
Diane sat in front of Ethan and she looked at him with her big eyes. He said nothing and just stared straight at her.
Chapter 334
"Zed already checked all your business partners. David Cameron has no problem. She comes from a poor family, she's responsible and she's sympathetic, so she deserves my help."
He knew Diane had a lot of questions for him.
"His factory employs many workers who have been in PHK. And the last time his company had a crisis, he had sold his house and car so he had enough money to pay their salaries."
Ethan smiled and said, "I told you before, good people will do good."
Dian nodded.
He always believed this, because Ethan told him so.
He never had an opinion on anything Ethan decided, and he always supported him.
But now he only had one question.
"Hubby, exactly how much money do you have?"
He knows Ethan's rich. When they first got married, Ethan was afraid he would get cold by driving a scooter to the office and buying him a BMW. From then on, he thought that Ethan had over a million dollars in the bank.
Then when she called at Greencliff Bank and almost made the CEO pee in his pants, Diane thought that maybe Ethan had over $10 million in the bank.
But after that Ethan gave a total of 30 cars to Brother Geoff and the rest, which amounted to $15 million. He also bought a new car for William that cost more than $2 million.
He seems to be printing money or something. He never seems to run out of money.
Then when Ethan takes over Tom Foster's company to give to his family and starts Palmer Group, the initial injection of cash to start the company is all Ethan's money as well.
And now, Ethan has made a personal investment of $1 billion to David Cameron, just like he just bought vegetables for $1!
How rich is this guy?!
"I don't know," Ethan shook his head.
He really doesn't know. Money meant nothing to him, so he never cared about money nor was he interested in money.
"What do you mean you don't know?"
Diane sneered and asked viciously, "Are you afraid I'll fall in love with your money?"
"I'd be more than happy if you fell in love with my money."
Ethan laughs as he pulls Diane's hand and she falls into his arms. Diane was so shocked that her face immediately turned red and she quickly glanced at the office door.
Thank goodness it was closed.
"I really don't know how much money I have, but either way, it should be enough" Ethan said seriously.
He did not say that if he needed cash, all the banks in the world would gladly give it to him!
Dian nodded. Ethan has a lot of money, but it's all his and it has nothing to do with him. He had no business asking about his money.
He will work hard and fight hard! One day he'll surpass Ethan!
Ethan wasn't worried about any of this. Diane was sitting on her lap right now and was still deep in her own thoughts.
He wondered if he should taste ice cream again.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the office door hurriedly and nervously.
Diane squeaks and jumps out of Ethan's arms. He straightened his clothes and his face could not help but blush.
Ethan curses. Which bastard ruined the moment?
"Who was that?"
"Palmer CEO! Brother Ethan! Someone came to make trouble!"
The door opened and Ashley stuck her head out. His expression was very anxious. "Someone beat up our security guard!"
The main door of the office has been kicked open. The door glass broke and there was a shard on the floor.
The two security guards howled in pain as they flew and fell to the floor. They can't wake up at all.
The two men who came were standing at nearly 7′ tall '. Their muscular bodies look quite scary.
Their skin was shiny and dark, and looked as strong as iron.
Their eyes were evil, vicious, and had absolutely no feelings.
Chapter 335
"Who among you is Ethan?" one of them shouted out in a loud and cold voice. "I'll break his leg! I'm gonna kill him!"
"Who among you is Diane? I'll take him away!"
Both of their voices were cold and unreasonable.
One wants Ethan dead, the other wants to take Diane away.
They just barged into the office like that. They had never seen such a powerful person before.
The staff just concentrated on doing their previous work, and now they were all pale-faced and shaking violently.
They've never seen anything like it before.
"Who ... who are you ..." One of the male staff was a bit bolder and managed to ask with gritted teeth, but his voice still shook. "Leave the place now, otherwise we'll call the police!"
The two men observed him and suddenly looked more murderous than before. The male staff froze in fear and did not dare to speak anymore.
"Don't make us kill you!"
The two of them started walking in and all the female staff started screaming in fear.
"I was so surprised that someone dared to kill me in this place."
Ethan emerged from behind the door and his expression was calm.
But he did not bother to hide the anger and humiliation in his eyes.
He knew that both of them were trained in martial arts and looked quite ruthless. They probably killed before.
After clearing Fairbanks, such people no longer existed. So both of them must have been sent here by Connor Hampton.
But does Connor Hampton not know who is the leader of the illegal Fairbanks hoop first?
"You're Ethan?"
The two of them squinted and looked at Ethan simultaneously. They were like two poisonous snakes staring at their prey.
They are trained in martial arts, so they know that Ethan knows a thing or two.
But they didn't know how skilled he was until they started fighting. From what they could feel, Ethan was extremely weak.
"Not bad."
Ethan pulls the chair to sit down. Then he waved his hand to tell the staff to stand behind, so that they would not get any blood on themselves later.
Diane didn't even come out of her office. Ethan didn't want him to witness such violence.
"Since you've already claimed to be Ethan, then prepare to die!" One of them smiled coldly. "Bro, I'll kill Ethan, you can take Diane away!"
The two exchanged looks and would move.
But Ethan continued to sit in his place without moving.
Hm? Both of them could not help but be vigilant when they saw this.
After being in this circle for a long time, being cautious was what helped them to stay alive.
When they see how Ethan doesn't seem the slightest bit nervous or worried and continues to remain calm, they can't help but suspect that Ethan has something else they don't know.
But Ethan just waved at Ashley to give her a pack of pumpkin seeds. After that, he looked back at the two of them.
"Wait a minute, what did you two just say?" He started chewing on the seeds and pointed at the two of them. "Which one said he wanted to kill me?"
"The others said he wanted to take Diane away?"
Ethan nodded and suddenly laughed out loud.
"So, you want me to deal with you personally?"
Both are confused and have no idea what Ethan is talking about.
What's with Ethan dealing with them?
Does Ethan think he can deal with them?
He would only be beaten to a pulp and die horribly!
And Diane will be tricked by Connor Hampton until she dies!
That was the price the Palmer Group had to pay for offending the Hampton family!
"This kind of trash doesn't need to be dealt with by Big Boss personally."
Chapter 336
It was Tom Foster!
He's back from the north.
Tom Foster walked confidently through the door. The way he carried himself was completely different from before.
His face now looked extremely stable, as if he had gone through a major transformation.
He looked at the two troublemakers and his gaze was ice-cold.
"Since when did the Big Boss have to deal with a bunch of stray dogs and cats?"
Tom Foster comes in and Brother Geoff and the wolves are behind him. Everything looks so murderous!
And behind them were more people.
There are so many people!
They had surrounded the entire entrance.
Everyone in the illegal Fairbanks circle has come. Each boss brought several hundred of his men to hurry as quickly as possible. There were over 2,000 people standing outside!
It was a huge crowd, it made everyone's hearts tremble.
Ethan continued to eat his lab seeds while the staff behind him held their breath and could not let out a word.
Ashley knows that Ethan has a lot of friends in Fairbanks because he has told her that he can tell her if she gets into trouble. But he didn't think he had many friends!
He's amazing!
The two men sent by the Hampton family turned to look at the large crowd behind and were startled. Even after being in the martial arts world for so long, they had never seen this many people fighting before!
There's at least 2,000 people in the back, right?
"Big Boss, you don't have to handle this kind of thing."
Tom Foster walked over and took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. Ethan saw it once and knew that Winston had Tom Foster bring this here.
Ethan nodded. Tom Foster immediately took out one, gave it to Ethan and turned it on for him.
Tom Foster then looked towards Brother Geoff. "Someone really dared to make trouble for the Big Boss in Riverport. It seems like without me, you guys really can't finish anything!"
Brother Geoff and the others did not dare to say anything.
Tom Foster finally turned to look at the two troublemakers and his voice instantly turned cold.
"Throw them out!"
BOOOMS…
Thirty wolves pounced on them without hesitation.
The two of them did not even have a chance to fight back. They were immediately dragged out of the door, and the crowd of over 2,000 people outside rushed in like waves to drown the two of them …
They had never experienced such despair in their lives. And they have no chance to experience it again.
All the staff behind Ethan were so shocked that their hair stood up.
What is this ability to rule so many people?
What kind of terrible influence is this?!
The two troublemakers would be beaten to a pulp!
Meanwhile, Ethan continues to sit in his place, squinting his eyes casually while sucking on a cigarette that he has not smoked for a long time.
Ashley and the other female staff all idolize Ethan and their eyes sparkle brightly.
Ethan is a man!
That's how a real man should be!
Tom Foster stood to the side respectfully. After this trip north, he understands more about Ethan and is even more amazed at Ethan. Ethan is like a god to Tom Foster now.
"Winston really knows me well," Ethan laughed after he finished his cigarette. He turned to Tom Foster, "After this trip north, you've improved a lot."
Tom Foster bowed slightly and did not dare to be complacent at all. "It's all thanks to Big Boss."
"Brother Winston said that he was waiting for you in the north."
Ethan laughed when he heard this.
It seemed like Winston had finally finished his preparations. So his plan to move north could now begin!
This massive cleanup will shock the world!
Chapter 337
Ethan gets up from his chair and turns to look at Ashley and the other staff. He had his usual friendly smile.
"In this company, you don't have to worry about anything, and no one dares to hurt you. Understood?"
Staff nodded.
Ethan then walks out of the office.
The scene of more than 2,000 people outside the door shocked everyone who passed by.
Everyone who walked along the street was shocked.
Ethan waved his hand and these 2,000 people stepped aside like a tide. They quickly left the place in an orderly manner. From the moment they came until they left, they only beat up two troublemakers and did not affect their surroundings at all.
The two men sent by the Hamptons were both lying on the ground and they could not move at all.
Almost every bone in their bodies was broken!
They were destroyed one by one!
Their eyes can still move and their noses can barely breathe, but other parts of themselves are just as good as porridge.
Ethan walked over and looked at the two of them.
"How much does your Young Master hate you two? You killed his father? Or steal his wife?" he calmly asked. "He actually sent you two to Fairbanks to die."
Both of them had nothing but terror on their faces. Ethan had a smile on his face, and they felt like they were seeing something scarier than the devil.
But they did not even have the strength to tremble.
Ethan doesn't care about them anymore. There are garbage trucks that will dispose of this kind of trash later.
He turned around and Tom Foster immediately reported, "I've found him. Big Boss, are you going to deal with him personally?"
Butler Zed's information network covered every part of Riverport, and there could be no information that escaped his eyes.
It's easy to know where Connor Hampton is.
Connor Hampton actually tried to attack Diane. That's the worst thing you can do to offend Ethan.
"Because he asked for a slap, then of course I have to do it myself" Ethan replied.
Several cars passed. Ethan goes in with the others and they leave.
Diane's still waiting for Ethan to come back to the office.
He doesn't see Ethan, but Ashley walks into his office with some ice cream.
"Where's Ethan?"
"Brother Ethan has to take care of some things, he asked me to give this to you."
Ashley was still trembling as she was so excited earlier.
"What's going on outside? Ethan won't let me out for a look."
"There's nothing!" Ashley remembers what Ethan told her. "Son Ethan just came out to get my men's pumpkin seeds."
Diane didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Has this guy never grown up?
But after hearing that nothing had happened outside, he did not ask any further. He has a lot of other things to watch out for.
……
The Naga Bay Hotel.
Connor Hampton has taken a bath and changed into a sleeping robe. Her hair was still a little wet and she looked quite cruel.
He has full control over all the partners and retailers that Palmer Group works with, so that's tantamount to hurting Palmer Group's hands and feet.
It was a problem for them to continue living in Fairbanks, let alone move from Riverport and to the southeast region.
"You're still too weak to fight with me!"
Connor Hampton looked at himself in the mirror and laughed coldly. "I've never failed to get what I wanted before!"
The two people he sent out were notorious as ruthless people and they had killed before. They had helped him with some fraudulent transactions.
Connor Hampton is convinced that they will kill Ethan and bring Diane to him.
It wouldn't be long before Diane would have to kneel before him to beg for mercy!
As Connor Hampton was thinking about this, someone kicked the door of his hotel room open.
Chapter 338
Connor Hampton was shocked and looked hard. "Who is that?!"
"I!"
Ethan enters with Tom Foster while the wolves stand outside the door.
Connor Hampton's eyes narrowed and he was terrified when he saw Ethan enter.
"Why ... Why are you here?"
He immediately moved back and looked around to see if he could take something as a weapon. But when he saw Tom Foster and the wolves outside, his expression instantly changed.
"What are you trying to do? I'm from the Hampton family! You won't dare touch me!"
Tom Foster pulls out a chair and Ethan sits on it.
He looked at Connor Hampton and waved at her to come over.
Connor Hampton didn't move, so Tom Foster went up and slapped Connor Hampton so hard he fell to the floor.
"God..."
Connor Hampton howled while holding his face. Tom Foster said nothing. He grabs Connor Hampton's hair and drags her to where Ethan is, then kicks the back of her knee to get her to kneel.
"You ... You dare ..."
Ethan didn't let her finish talking. He slapped him and made one of Connor Hampton's teeth fly out.
"Did I say you could talk?"
Connor Hampton was furious, but he dared not say it again. His bloody teeth had landed on the floor and it frightened him.
"The Hampton family is used to dominating because they have people in the legal and illegal circles of Castle Rock" Ethan said. "But this is Fairbanks."
Connor Hampton gazes intently at Ethan with hateful and threatening eyes, but Ethan is not at all bothered by him.
"You shouldn't be so greedy and covet the Palmer Group. And you shouldn't try to hit my woman!"
Ethan narrowed his eyes and patted Connor Hampton on the face. "I can tell you what happened to the last person who tried to joke with my wife right now."
Tom Foster pulled out his phone and opened a photo.
There was no one in the photo. There was only a flower that bloomed beautifully.
Connor Hampton looked at the flower and did not understand.
"This fertilizer is full of nutrients and makes this flower bloom very beautifully."
Connor Hampton's face paled.
He felt as if his soul had left his body.
A fertilizer?
That guy has become fertilizer?
Is Ethan the devil?!
Connor Hampton's entire body was trembling and he felt extremely cold. It was as if he was cold and even his lips were trembling.
"You can't kill me..." His voice trembled as it was filled with overwhelming fear. "I'm from the Hampton family, so if you touch me, my family won't let you go!"
"I can't wait," Ethan said calmly.
Connor Hampton felt like he was struck by lightning. What did Ethan just say?
He can't wait?
He wants the Hampton family to handle him as quickly as possible?
He's nuts! He must be crazy!
Connor Hampton is now the most frightened person he has ever experienced and now it is too late to regret. He tried to fight free, but there was no way he could get out of here.
He was so scared that he peed on his pants, and there was a disgusting smell from the floor.
His body immediately became weak as he collapsed on the floor and he trembled violently.
"I was wrong.I was wrong! Ethan, let me go! Please, let me go!"
"I'll get out of Riverport right now! I'll be out right now!"
"You can hit me! Or break my leg! Please.please don't kill me! Don't kill me!"
Connor Hampton kept crying out for mercy and did not look like the arrogant Young Master Hampton anymore. He started prostrating with great force and there was soon blood on his forehead.
But of course Ethan can't be bothered. He got up and left.
"I don't want to be a manure! I don't want to be a manure!!!"
Chapter 339
Ethan doesn't care about his plea. The next thing he heard was a terrible scream.
This is the destiny that everyone who makes trouble in Fairbanks encounters. What's more, Connor Hampton is actually stupid enough to have an idea about Diane.
It could be put to death!
Greencliff is a forbidden territory, and now, Fairbanks has become a part of it.
This is Ethan's information network headquarters, so it's a very important place to protect.
News of Hampton's disappearance quickly spread everywhere, and now the people who betrayed the Palmer Group to follow Hampton's family became fearful.
Everyone knows that the Palmer Group is not a person to be taken lightly, but all of this happened in just a span of a few hours.
Connor Hampton says he's going to destroy the Palmer Group and kill Ethan. But now?
Ethan is still healthy and alive, and someone even sees Ethan and Diane eating at a famous restaurant. And Connor Hampton?
He has disappeared!
No one can find him!
Everyone knows how things have to end.
No matter how strong the Hampton family is, this is Fairbanks.
Is there anyone making trouble in Fairbanks still alive?
They all started to panic. They are worried and afraid – is afraid that Palmer Group will settle this dispute with them one day, and are worried Diane will be unkind to them.
"Don't scare yourself anymore, CEO Palmer is a very kind-hearted person and won't take this heart."
"To be precise, we were forced to make this decision and we did not intentionally want to betray the Palmer Group. He's a good man, he'll forgive us."
"Let's all beg him. Once CEO Palmer has mercy on us, we'll be fine."
……
They all gathered together and thought of a plan.
They knew that Diane was kind, sincere, and friendly, and that was exactly why they were willing to offend the Palmer Group rather than the Hampton family.
After all, Connor Hampton is a very domineering and evil character. He was extremely cruel and acted without mercy.
But Dian's not like that.
He was very kind-hearted, so there was no way he would force them into a corner like this.
They were all waiting outside the Palmer Group's office early in the morning.
It was not that they did not want to enter, but there were some fierce-looking people outside the entrance and they did not dare to enter.
Tom Foster has arranged for these people to ensure office security. In fact, there were at least a hundred people within a one-mile radius to make sure there were no problems here.
Tom Foster has returned, so Ethan can relax. Too much interaction with Brother Geoff makes Ethan's head hurt.
There are a lot of things Ethan doesn't need to say and Tom Foster will take care of it first.
After standing outside for so long, their legs were tired. Diane has yet to come and some of the older ones find it hard to keep standing.
"Hello, young man, can we wait in the meeting room?" one of them smiled shyly and tried to offer one of them a very expensive and very polite pack of cigarettes to him.
"Without CEO Palmer's permission, anyone who tries to get in will break a leg!"
No one cared about those cigarettes and no one cared about being polite to them.
They had even heard them talk about how they would use Diane's kindness to earn her forgiveness. The fact that they didn't hit them there and then was an incredible display of self-control.
The bosses did not dare to say anything after being scolded.
These people were all ruthless and no one dared to offend them inside Fairbanks.
They had heard all about the 2,000 people who had come the day before.
After a long time, BMW arrived at the entrance. Diane was the one who got out of that car.
"Palmer CEO! CEO Palmer!"
"Palmer CEO! You're finally here!"
They all started to surround him as they looked at him and put on their most miserable, helpless and regretful faces.
It was as if they had experienced a great tragedy and were here to complain to Diane.
Chapter 340
"Have you come to the wrong place?" Diane frowned and did not seem to notice all their pitiful expressions. He calmly commented, "If I remember correctly, you all went to work with the Hampton family."
She's upset.
Ethan says nothing and just goes to the office without seeing them.
He had to let Diane handle this matter by herself. Only then will he grow up.
If he were to make the decision, these people would not even have the chance to stand around here.
"Palmer CEO! It's a misunderstanding! This is completely misunderstanding!" one of them quickly went in to explain. "We've always partnered with the Palmer Group, and this will never change."
"The Hampton family forced us! They used all sorts of means to force us to move camps!"
"That's right, CEO Palmer. We really don't have a choice. Compared to the Hampton family, we really can't fight back."
They all kept saying such things and did not hide the helplessness or suffering they felt.
Diane looked at them and felt even more disappointed.
If they had just admitted to moving the camp and apologized, he would have felt better. But now?
They have all removed the responsibility from themselves, as if it were not them who made this choice and the Hampton family have made this choice for them.
The Hampton family is indeed strong, but David Cameron of the Axel Group has dared to side with him, while they choose to give up on the Hampton family. Do they think that the Palmer Group is easily disturbed?
"Oh really? I heard you were all very happy when you agreed to work with the Hampton family."
He continued in an expressionless voice, "If nothing else, please don't disturb my work anymore. Palmer Group has a lot to look out for."
"Palmer CEO!"
"Wait, CEO Palmer!"
When they realized that Diane was angry, they exchanged glances and their tone of voice changed.
"CEO Palmer, be a little more generous to us, we really have no choice. My factory has over 600 workers who need to be fed."
"I recently raised my workers' pay recently because of our partnership with Palmer Group, which gave me the confidence to pay them more. CEO Palmer, you can't disappoint my workers!"
"That's right, CEO Palmer, this is hard for everyone. Hope you can give us a chance. Even if you don't give us a chance, then think of it as giving our workers a chance?"
They all spoke very sincerely and had pleading expressions on their faces. If Diane said she would forgive them if they kneeled, they would definitely kneel.
Diane's kindness is no secret at Riverport.
He had chosen his business partner mostly by considering this bottom rung worker.
So they were sure Diane would not reject them once they used this excuse to persuade her.
But Diane became even more disappointed.
"That's right, it's hard for everyone."
Dian nodded.
They were immediately excited by these words. Dian surrendered.
It was impossible for someone like Diane to be cruel to them after hearing about the suffering of their workers.
They guessed it right. The Palmer Group will only be angry but will not push them into a corner. Even if the Palmer Group is angry with the boss, they will not vent their anger on their workers.
With this card in their hand, they were not afraid anymore.
"But do you think it's easy for the Palmer Group?"
Before the boss could feel happy, Diane's voice became loud. "My workers have worked so hard and done so much. You think it's easy for them?"
"You all just betrayed Palmer Group like that, so who will bear the losses of Palmer Group? My workers?!"
