“Hurry up and look at the Irving family's stock price!”
Not long after Donald shot down the helicopter, the Irving family's stock price plummeted from a peak price of one hundred
twenty to just nineteen, suffering nearly a hundredfold drop.
D*mn! Donald is ruthless. This is a severe blow to the Irving family!
Initially, everyone thought Donald was joking, but now it was evident he was being serious. Moreover, he had the capability to
follow through.
What dumbfounded everyone further was that not only did the Irving family's stock price crash, but almost at the same time,
news about domestic authorities cracking down on the Irving family for business information leaks, illegal financing, and
profiteering started circulating on various media outlets.
Those people were savvy businesspeople.
If the steep fall in stock price only left the Irving family hanging by a thread, then those pieces of news were sufficient to be the
final straw that broke the camel's back for the clan.
Everyone in that circle knew bankruptcy wasn't the scariest outcome.
After all, if one's corporation went under, they would still have other companies to support their living. That was what they termed
as keeping a card up one's sleeve.
However, in the Irving family's case, they were completely doomed after being targeted by relevant authorities all of a sudden.
“Hurry up and look at the Irving family's stock price!”
Their real estate, corporate assets, and anything of value would be legally seized and confiscated, leaving them utterly
penniless.
More importantly, if the authorities uncovered any criminal activities during their investigation, the principal figures of the Irving
family might end up behind bars, facing criminal charges.
Hence, Donald's move demonstrated just how formidable he was.
Dragon Fide Corporation truly possessed great influence and extensive reach.
“The Irving family has met its downfall. Who else wants to end up like them?”
The heads of the remaining eight prestigious families looked at each other and made a decision almost simultaneously.
Pride was only useful if they could survive.
Now that they were on the brink of their demise, there was no point in preserving their dignity.
At that thought, the heads of all the eight prestigious families said to Donald, “Mr. Campbell, we'll follow your instructions and do
as you say.”
Donald nodded in satisfaction. “Very well. I want all of them to kneel and grovel at my feet.”
In the past, the eight prestigious families would never have agreed to submit to Donald, but things were different now.
The construction of Dragon Fide Villa was nearing completion, and the world's most luxurious and upscale area for the rich
would be wrapped up soon.
Their reol estote, corporote ossets, ond onything of volue would be legolly seized ond confiscoted, leoving them utterly
penniless.
More importontly, if the outhorities uncovered ony criminol octivities during their investigotion, the principol figures of the Irving
fomily might end up behind bors, focing criminol chorges.
Hence, Donold's move demonstroted just how formidoble he wos.
Drogon Fide Corporotion truly possessed greot influence ond extensive reoch.
“The Irving fomily hos met its downfoll. Who else wonts to end up like them?”
The heods of the remoining eight prestigious fomilies looked ot eoch other ond mode o decision olmost simultoneously.
Pride wos only useful if they could survive.
Now thot they were on the brink of their demise, there wos no point in preserving their dignity.
At thot thought, the heods of oll the eight prestigious fomilies soid to Donold, “Mr. Compbell, we'll follow your instructions ond do
os you soy.”
Donold nodded in sotisfoction. “Very well. I wont oll of them to kneel ond grovel ot my feet.”
In the post, the eight prestigious fomilies would never hove ogreed to submit to Donold, but things were different now.
The construction of Drogon Fide Villo wos neoring completion, ond the world's most luxurious ond upscole oreo for the rich
would be wropped up soon.
By then, Donald was very likely to become one of the wealthiest men in the world.
In addition, those Ten Prestigious Families failed to gain any benefits from Donald over the years. Instead, they'd spent a lot of
time, money, and manpower to oppose him.
At that moment, they clearly understood Donald wasn't the same person he used to be, and Dragon Fide Corporation was also
no longer a corporation they could easily manipulate.
Demanding them to grovel at his feet was considered a merciful punishment.
If Donald was displeased, he could easily blacklist all of them.
Realizing that, the heads of the eight prestigious families abandoned all reservations.
Watching the scions of the eight prestigious families kneel and uniformly grovel at Donald's feet, the business elites of New
Littbourg grew more determined than ever to pursue Donald. Bloody h*ll. If he can make the Ten Prestigious Families yield to
him, who else in Yorksland will dare to challenge him?
Considering how sensibly the eight prestigious families reacted, Donald didn't make things difficult for them and directly ordered
the financial tycoons of Dragon Fide Corporation to stop, and spared them.
After the banquet ended, Donald told Geraldine to contact him if there were any problems. Then, he immediately drove back to
Pollerton, eager to see Jennifer.
