Female Novel
Chapter 573 I Only Serve Nathan Cross
Night fell and the city lights blinked to life.
All kinds of official cars, commercial cars, and luxury cars appeared at the parking lot in front of the
White Swan hotel.
The mayor of Channing, Russell Crow, as well as Jerry Mcgrady and many other leaders had arrived.
The wealthy figures in Channing, such as Zachary Schulz and Derek Harvey had also made an
appearance.
Representatives from Channing's upper socialite families had also made it to the banquet.
The overlord of Channing's underground world, Thomas Dunn, had also brought along Jack Green and
a small group of men with him.
Other than the powerful figures from the military, all the other important people in Channing had already
arrived.
In the White Swan hotel, hundreds of well-dressed big shots stood in either groups of two or three,
whispering among themselves.
Everyone was very curious as to why the Lunds from the East had sent invitations to them asking them
to attend a banquet.
"Mr. Lund is here!" Someone abruptly exclaimed.
Then, a young man in a white suit with a group of men trailing after him appeared in the hotel lobby. It
was Joey Lund.
Joey smiled and waved towards the crowd that had gathered while murmuring under his breath to his
subordinate, Black Dragon, “Have all the important figures in Channing arrived?"
Black Dragon whispered back his report, "Major-General Wilson was reported to have gone to
Brimmopolis for a meeting and most probably can't make it. Nathan Cross and Penny Smith of the
Cross Group are not present as well. The rest of them have all arrived."
Joey felt that it wasn't surprising that Major-General Wilson couldn't make it since he had gone to
Brimmopolis for a meeting.
However, Nathan Cross and Penny Smith of the Cross Group not attending was a direct insult to him
and his family.
Joey snorted indignantly and said, "We'll settle scores with Nathan Cross and Penny Smith after this!"
Joey then went onto the stage. He swept a gaze full of arrogance at the crowd below him before
speaking, "Good evening everyone. My name is Joey Lund, and I represent the Lund family from the
East, as well as the Eastern Chamber of
Commerce."
Everyone listened attentively as he continued, "I called everyone here tonight with only one purpose in
mind. Our family will be investing in Channing in the future, so we want to get well acquainted with all of
Channing's powerful figures. If all of you are willing to connect with us and offer up your contributions
for further expansion, we can promise you that only benefits will await us in the future."
Everyone present showed skeptical expressions upon hearing Joey's words.
Everyone at the scene was experts at what they did, and they could clearly hear what Joey was
implying.
The Lund Family was seeking to take control of Channing, and Joey Lund was indirectly saying that all
of those with power and influence still had to bow before them.
Joey could see everyone discussing amongst themselves, but no one dared to express their opinions.
A smirk played on his lips and he began to force everyone to choose a side by forming two rows.
They could either submit to the Lund Family. Or they could stand against them.
He looked to the mayor of Channing, Russell Crow, and the other city officials first, casually saying,novelbin
"Mr. Crow, what's
your choice?"
Russell, Jerry, and their party of people exchanged glances before smiling compliantly. "We always
welcome anyone who wants to invest."
Their answer was very ambiguous.
They neither supported, nor opposed. At most, it was a neutral stance.
Even so, Joey deemed Russell Crow and the city officials' answer acceptable.
He immediately moved on to the others.
Many people chose to remain neutral.
"The Lunds from the East are very well-established. We Zedds look forward to doing your bidding in the
future." Content belongs to Draмa?ovеls.cом
"Yes. The Larsons are also willing to follow the Lunds. We will put our absolute faith and trust in your
family from now on."
In the end, only the Channing's underground world hadn't made their statement.
Joey looked at Thomas Dunn, squinting his eyes as he asked, "Mr. Dunn, are you willing to surrender
to us?"
