Chapter 363 They Have Gathered

Julia Young wanted to ask Leon Williams for help, but soon gave up the idea.

First, because of the relationship with Leon Williams, it was impossible to ease up in a short period of time, and if they had to beg for him, they would be willingly do so.

Second, she suspected Leon's knowledge and strategy. For her, he was too smart to just be a chauffeur. He could be living the grand lifestyle in an instant, yet he chose to work for Thomas and his family. Her doubts only grew more each passing second.

Julia did not believe that Leon could save her. However, she was still too stubborn to accept it. She was totally subdued as if her name and reputation suddenly vanished. For Julia, the only thing she could do to save herself and finally gain back the pride she had lost is to "take credit" from Thomas.

Signing the agreement was an easy thing to do. But, making sure that all conditions are followed correctly can be a tough job. There are other things to consider and one must protect his or her involvement when it comes to the business industry.

Before inscribing his name, Thomas wondered. "What Mr. Williams had said was true. We have not event visited your company yet. Not one bit of information as well. How can I sign this without nothing anything?" he said.

Joy's hopeful mood was turned down again. They did not expect Leon to have such a good impact on Thomas. His insights from his experience with life was like Thomas' guidebook. He looked up to Leon very much and the way he relied on him carried a big deal into his dignity as a man who came from a great and wealthy family.

"I can send you the copy of the data as proof of our company's rising success. As for visiting, we could go there after our little tea session." Joy smiled and said. Thomas nodded as he continued sipping his tea.

The competition when it comes to the city's enterprises was way tougher than it actually sounded. Thousands of people are doing everything they can to reach the peak. Opportunities to work with prominent families were a rare thing to find and achieve. Despite of the success that each and every one had earned, there would still be feuds to watch out that are complete unavoidable. Achieving allegiance was impossible between powerful families just like with Thomas' and the Bethune family.

"If Thomas can attract an investment from J City, or if Harriman family invests personally, there would be a win-win situation for them all." Joy silently thought.

However, cooperation was not enough. Leon was one of the people who knew the land and the city very well. He had witnessed the ups and downs that Texas has experienced. For Thomas, he was the best hope that they got to create a big change and impact for the company and the people. But not everyone could see Leon the way Thomas had seen him.

"Mr. Williams, what does one think about this land?" Thomas asked him.

When Joy saw that Thomas asked Leon Williams for advice, she immediately reacted violently and seemed very dissatisfied.

"Thomas, it's no use asking him. What does he know?" Joy interrupted. "The businessmen in Texas aren't something that folks like him can understand. Don't you think it's better to consult someone else who has more knowledge about this?" he insisted.

"I can't say that what you said is not true. I may not have a ton of experience about the business industry in Texas, but I do know what a risky investment looks like. The unknown equity is one example not to trust certain companies" Leon said faintly.

As soon as these words came out, Joy was stunned with How does a man like him know about the unknown equities with their company. They looked down on him too much and now it seemed like as if karma is about to haunt them back. Leon was full of surprises and he was definitely the person they did not expect who would be taking them down to their graves.

"Oh, the equity is unknown? Mr. Williams, tell me what is going on." Thomas was immediately interested.

Although he had clearly stated that he would not be cooperating with the Bethune family, he knew the consequences if his family and theirs blindly invest in a company that they seemed to have no awareness of.

If he wanted to invest in anything, he must invest his money in real estate, stocks, cars, jewelry, and clothes. But turning a blind eye to investment without thinking, was exactly what Leon was hoping not to happen to Thomas.

Joy thought that Leon was just unaware to everything around him. After all, Strong Real Estate's shareholders could never see anything fishy. Joy nearly lost his temper before waiting for Leon to answer.

"Thomas is not the type of person who will stop and easily listen to others, this real estate was founded by my father. Apart from me, a member of the Bethune family, there are no other shareholders." Joy exclaimed.

"The control of the company may not be in the hands of Bethune. None of you are rookies in the business world." Leon said suddenly.

"There are many ways to transfer shares and the dilution of shares. but there are many examples of founders being thrown out these days, not to mention that the Bethune family are just puppets. If you take the initiative to transfer shares at that time, you will not be cheating Thomas?" Leon Williams asked theoretically.

A glimmer of anger appeared on Joy's face. "what do you mean by that? Are you saying that I, a member of the Bethune family, would be setting up a trap for the Harriman family? "

"It's easy for you to tell me you won't, but it's hard to reassure that your Father himself wouldn't try anything like that and I'm afraid your father won't easily tell you those trade secrets." Leon responded with a firm look.

"Thomas, you mustn't believe the degrading words he is speaking. He is just spreading rumors! All he is trying to do is slander! " Joy's mood started to become quite intense.

"Listen, the backers behind you are several new developers operated and funded by Carter family, Strong Real Estate would have to have signed a gambling agreement with Carter Group, otherwise Carter family would not have risked spending a lot of money." Leon said firmly.

"I now suspect that Strong real estate will win over the Wolf family to fill the hole in order to complete this agreement" Leon Williams's words are like gold coming from his mouth. But just as he finished, Joy sprang up from his seat, clenched his fists and suddenly became pale."

"How could he possibly know that the Bethune family is backed by the Carter Group? These are all trade secrets! " Leon questioned the situation intently.

"is it true that Leon is right?" Betty said, who had not participated in the confrontation, but sat in the back watching and waiting for the right time to chime in. Leon Williams had actually been following the company's developments for quite some time.

After all, Westfield and Century are competitors. He must understand his competitors and never slack off, which was related to his trial in Texas.

Thomas was furious and snapped at Joy, "is that true?" Does the Bethune family really want me to fill the hole? How disrespectful could you be? Do you have any idea the power I have? The power my family has?" At that moment, Joy softened his legs and knelt directly in front of Thomas begging him to give him another chance with the Bethune Family.

However, Thomas was extremely displeased with the situation and refused to give pity to anyone, especially Joy. Seeing this, Joy turned to Leon Williams again, kneeling and begging for mercy.

"Mr. Williams, please help me persuade Thomas to forgive the Bethune Family!"
