Chapter 283: Chapter 159 Regret is Too Late_2

After the drone arrived at the designated territorial waters, it quietly surfaced and then hid two meters beneath the sea surface, beginning to use the Quantum Radar Scan on the Bina Manor Estate perched atop the cliff. It was one o’clock local time, and in Yan Fei’s imagination, it was certain that the board members of Green Spruce Capital could not be found in the estate at this hour, as it was deep into the night and this was The United States of America, where no one would be working in the estate after hours.

Yan Fei’s plan was not to annihilate all members of Green Spruce Capital’s board. Instead, he intended to take them out one by one as they were discovered, giving them a lesson, as it would be very difficult for these board members to gather together, and Yan Fei did not have enough time to wait for them all to assemble.

However, when the Quantum Radar scanned the inside of Bina Manor Estate, Yan Fei was surprised to discover that a meeting was taking place in the manor’s conference room. And it seemed that all the members of the Green Spruce Capital board were in attendance.

———————————————————————————

Inside the conference room of Bina Manor Estate, all the board members of Green Spruce Capital were holding an emergency meeting. The reason for this meeting was because of the video Yan Fei had posted on the Internet the day before, which showed the extermination of the Assassin Sect. The video featured the CEO of Green Spruce Capital, Zeppelin, who, after being exposed by the Assassin Sect for colluding with them on behalf of Green Spruce Capital, was killed by a member of the Assassin Sect.

In that video, the Assassin Sect pointed out that Green Spruce Capital, in collusion with the Yang Family of Beijing, attempted to take over Dream Technology with unfair means. Faced with this accusation, the severely injured Zeppelin at the time could not refute it, and even if he were unharmed, he wouldn’t dare refute it. As his accomplice, Yang Wanlin from Yang Family of Beijing, who was also present, did not refute it either, which effectively confirmed Green Spruce Capital’s involvement in the devious plot to take over Dream Technology.

Unfortunately, their plot eventually encountered an unexpected complication due to the sudden interference of the Destroyer, leading to the complete failure of their conspiracy and significant personnel losses for the Assassin Sect. As a result, the assassins of the Assassin Sect kidnapped Zeppelin from The United States of America under the pretext that Green Spruce Capital’s plan had caused heavy losses for the sect, hence Green Spruce Capital had to pay for the damages, or else the sect would launch assassination attempts against the board members of Green Spruce Capital.

The board members of Green Spruce Capital were in a state of panic upon discovering Zeppelin being kidnapped and themselves subjected to death threats. Because of the hardline image of the Assassin Sect in history, which took no reason into consideration, coupled with their never-failed assassination tasks, these people were also afraid of being targeted by the sect. For their own safety, they had already started a meeting to discuss how to compensate for the losses sustained by the Assassin Sect.

But before they could finalize any resolution, they found the video online showing the Assassin Sect being exterminated by the Destroyer and were immediately relieved, no longer worrying about their own safety. However, new concerns quickly arose as the video exposed Green Spruce Capital’s shady conspiracy. This unexpected event caused a tremendous headache for Green Spruce Capital, as the company had already received a correspondence from the Chinese Embassy in The United States of America that day, asking for an explanation regarding their unlawful attempt to take over Dream Technology.

If it were in the past, faced with an inquiry email from the Chinese Embassy, Green Spruce Capital, backed by the formidable strength of The United States of America, would not have taken it seriously. However, in the last few years, China’s national strength had soared, especially in military and technology development, gaining significant discourse power internationally, and it was no longer a time when Green Spruce Capital could afford to disregard China.

Additionally, Green Spruce Capital had many investment projects in China, with vast interests at stake, they needed to secure support from China to safeguard their interests. Therefore, upon receiving the questioning email from the Chinese Embassy, they immediately convened a closed-door meeting to discuss a plan to respond to China’s reproaches.

In the conference room, all members of the Green Spruce Capital board looked dejected. They had swallowed countless high-quality enterprises through means of threats, violence, and deception, yet they never expected their scheme to falter with Dream Technology. This operation not only resulted in the death of their CEO, Zeppelin but also revealed the plot for the whole world to see, utterly tarnishing Green Spruce Capital’s reputation. In the future, other enterprises would be cautious when dealing with Green Spruce Capital’s venture investments, facing substantial difficulty and trouble in their investment activities. Moreover, they were now confronted with the most significant crisis – how to reply to the Chinese Embassy’s inquiry.

Seeing that no one was speaking, a gaunt old man said, “Gentlemen, we are strategic partners with Yang Liu of China, we’ve cooperated for many years and have controlled numerous high-quality enterprises in China, sharing mutual interests. Thus, we can contact Yang Liu, leveraging his tremendous influence in the Chinese government, to help us cope with this crisis from China.”

Another middle-aged man shook his head and said, “The difficulty of implementing this proposal is quite considerable. In that video, not only was our action against Dream Technology revealed, but Yang Liu’s brother Yang Wanlin also appeared. Under the threat of the Assassin Sect, Yang Wanlin admitted that the Yang Family had participated in the conspiracy against Dream Technology as well. Yang Liu might be facing a more difficult situation than us, so he might not have the ability to persuade the Chinese higher-ups to give us a break, especially since he may struggle to protect himself. And even if Yang Liu does have such capability, given his cold and greedy nature, he would surely take a large bite out of us, making us suffer severe losses.”
