Lord Protector Novel

“Give me a break. Do you think I would buy that? If I was really dead, you would probably be thanking him jubilantly instead of exacting revenge. Just come clean with me.”

Jared replied in a mysterious tone, “Fine. I'll speak candidly. Do you know what is it that Eurasia has in abundance?”

“Isn't it obvious? People. It is the most populous nation in the world.”

“Exactly. So, what does it mean?”

Rhett sneered, “You're really annoying. How would I know the answer to that? Does it mean they eat and poop a lot?”

“My dear brother, you truly are a terrible businessman. A huge population represents a huge business opportunity, meaning Eurasia is undoubtedly the world's biggest market. And yet, the Mitxel family's influence in Eurasia is the weakest among all. Therefore, I plan to take over Linton Group so that Mitxel Group can easily expand in Eurasia. When that happens, the company will naturally be elevated to the next level.”

That was Jared's real reason for attacking Linton Group.

As for being forced by Warren to do so, that was just a secondary factor.

Rhett replied, “Even though your plan is ruthless, I can understand why you're doing it. I don't care about what you've done previously, but going forward, I would advise you not to continue targeting Linton Group. From this moment on, leave Eurasia and never step into this country for the rest of eternity, and that includes the entire Mitxel family.”

Jared stared at Rhett in shock. “Rhett, you must have gone mad. After spending so much time and effort in Eurasia, I'm close to achieving success. But now, you're telling me to leave? What in the world is your agenda?”

Rhett replied, “The only agenda I have is to save the Mitxel family. I don't want to see it get wiped out.”

“Rhett, what are you talking about? The Mitxel family is doing fine. Why would we be eliminated?”

Staring at Jared, Rhett explained earnestly, “Jared, I'm solemnly telling you that the boss of Linton Group, Zeke Williams, is someone neither we nor the Mitxel family can afford to offend. In fact, there's barely any faction in the world powerful enough to trifle with Linton Group. Zeke is nothing but a landmine. Whoever steps on him will be blown to smithereens.”

“Rhett, you have changed. You never used to be such a coward. Truth be told, I'm aware of Zeke's capability too. Isn't he the true boss of Redwood Capital? However, doesn't Redwood Capital pale in comparison to the Mitxel family? At best, Zeke's influence is on par with us, so why do you fear him so?”

Rhett couldn't help but snigger. “Jared, you have a terrible eye. If I tell you about Zeke's true identity, it will definitely come as a shock. It's true that he's the real boss of Redwood Capital, but that's just the least impressive of all his identities.”
