The Return Of God Of War

The Return of God of War Chapter 431

“Hahaha! What a joke! Do you really think we, the Suarez family would be afraid of anyone? Just wait and see. Soon enough, we’ll have our own territory in North Hampton.”

Zachary didn’t give a second thought to what Margaret had said.

Thus, the week-long investment promotion fair ended on a fulfilling note.

Many businesses from overseas had given their all into investing in North Hampton’s developments.

That was exactly the results Levi wanted to achieve.

However, he had heard of a few larger families forcing a few small and medium-sized corporations into handing over their companies. Within just a few days, many of those corporations had already been bought over.

“Mr. Garrison, what should we do? Should we start taking action?” The Rogers family asked.

Levi shook his head. “We’ll just observe for now. It wouldn’t be too late for us to take action only after they’ve succeeded. After all, it’s only fair for them to make contributions to the North Hampton’s economy first.”

When everyone caught sight of the smirk hanging off Levi’s lips, they understood what his true motives were.

Levi was planning to fatten them up slowly and surely. The moment they were ripe and plump enough, only then would he sink his teeth into them.

Back in the Lopez family mansion, Sebastian was looking frazzled.

He’d aged quite a bit under the stress from the recent events.

Staying put without taking revenge wasn’t his style of confrontation at all.

“What happened? Did he agree to it?” Sebastian asked.

“Yes, he did, but he asked for you to go and invite him personally,” Simon said.

“Yes, of course I will!”

“Sebastian, I never would have thought that you’d call on him.” Simon’s eyes trembled in fear.

Sebastian scoffed, “If it weren’t that urgent, would I have gone for this option?”

“It’s not a bad thing. In fact, if he takes action, then the boss behind the Morris Group has nowhere left to run!”

Murderous intent glazed over Sebastian’s gaze. “That’s right. That man is the one and only person I’ve ever feared of. If he didn’t go into hiding, would I even have the chance to be where I am today in South City? He’s the real head of Quebec!”

“That’s right. The Morris Group has been playing games for far too long. It’s high time this man appeared to stop them.”

The Suarez family had been gobbling up businesses left and right in North Hampton. So far, they’ve gotten themselves quite the collection.

“No! I can’t just let the injury my brother suffered go that easily. The Oriental Star Group must be ours.” Zachary’s gaze was chilly.

That very afternoon, Zachary brought a group of his men to the Oriental Star Group.

Zoey had no choice but to meet them.

“It’s Zoey, isn’t it? I’ll keep things short. I’m here to take over the Oriental Star Group,” Zachary said instantly.

Zoey, however, refused just as quickly. “That’s impossible. I’ve just taken over the company, and we’re developing pretty well. Why would I ever sell the company to you?”

“That’s right! Mr. Suarez, did you hear any false rumors? The Oriental Star Group isn’t up for sale. Were you expecting to buy us over?”

The other higher-ups looked at Zachary questioningly.

Zachary just chuckled. “Well, the Suarez family wishes to take over your company, so you have to sell it to us.”

“What kind of twisted reason is that? Aren’t you just forcing us to give it up to you?”

“What kind of society are we living in? I didn’t know such hegemony existed.”

The higher-ups of the Oriental Star Group all disagreed with his outlandish request.

“That’s right. The Suarez family is simply used to such methods. I’ll give you 24 hours to clean up before I come back here to take what’s mine. If you turn me down, trust me, you’ll regret it,” Zachary said coldly.

Three loud bangs resounded as one of Zachary’s men tossed three throwing knives and landed them each on the words, ‘Oriental Star Group’ that was printed on the wall behind them.

The Return of God of War Chapter 432

That was a threat.

It was a threat; plain and simple as that; laid bare for all of them to see.

That was a warning to everyone in Oriental Star Group that if they dared to go against him, they’d regret that decision for the rest of their lives.

“Remember, none of you have the right to retaliate against the Suarez family, so don’t even try,” Zachary said coldly before leaving.

In the end, the higher-ups were left staring after him in disbelief.

Was the Oriental Star Group about to get bought over right after they’d just begun developing?

“Ms. Lopez, I think it’d be for the best if we let them buy the company.”

“That’s right. The Suarez family has been buying companies left and right. The ones who tried to retaliate ended up defending themselves to death.”

“The Suarez family has way too much power in South City. We don’t have the power to fight back against them. In fact, we might end up dead, too.”

The higher-ups of the Oriental Star Group had given up completely.

Zoey, however, remained silent.

Deep within, her heart was crumbling in hopelessness.

Why did they have to get on the Suarez family’s bad side?

Zoey was ready to give up.

Based on everything that had happened recently, the Suarez family would stop at nothing to get what they wanted.

In order to force the hands of those business owners, they had used all kinds of twisted methods.

Zoey was especially terrified that her parents or her husband would get into trouble because of her.

Recently, Levi had been rather satisfied with how North Hampton was coming along.

There were a couple of obstacles along the way, but overall, everything was going smoothly.

Once he reached home, however, the first thing he saw was Zoey’s unhappy face.

“What happened, honey? Did something happen at work?” Levi asked, concerned.

Zoey shook her head. “I’m just frustrated because of the recent developments with the company.”

The next day, Zoey had just stepped foot into the company when she caught sight of Zachary strolling in with a bunch of his underlings.

Everyone else shivered at the sight of the man from the other day who had used the throwing knives with such ease.

“So, Ms. Lopez, what’s your final decision?” Zachary asked with a smirk on his face.

“You could at least try to be a little more sincere with your request. What’s your price?” Zoey asked.

Zachary was taken aback for a second before replied, “One billion!”

Everyone inhaled sharply at the sound of Zachary’s price.

The Suarez family was truly overbearing!

How dare they try to buy a company with a net worth of six billion for only one billion?

Zoey scoffed coldly, “Mr. Suarez, are you insane? How could I possibly sell it to you for a mere one billion?”

Zachary burst out laughing.

Coldly, he jabbed, “Ms. Lopez, I don’t think you know what’s going on right now. You’re in no position to make any negotiations. I named my price to save you some face. If you piss me off, you’re not going to get even a cent from me.”

Ridiculous!

How could the Suarez family be this ridiculously overbearing?!

Sadly, they could only seethe in silence.

Two days ago, someone tried to retaliate against the Suarez family. They ended up with four broken limbs and their family got dragged into it too.

Who wouldn’t be afraid of such a force?

“This is the contract. Sign it now, and the money will be transferred to you instantly.” Zachary tossed the contract to Zoey.

“If you refuse to sign this, Aaron Lopez and Caitlyn Black will be joining me for dinner tonight.” Zachary laughed chillingly as he laid his threats down.

His meaning was clear enough. If Zoey refused, he’d find a way to get rid of Aaron and Caitlyn, and it didn’t matter whether they were dead or alive.

“You’re being unreasonable!” Zoey shouted in anger.

Even after so long, she had never met such an overbearing person.

Sadly, she couldn’t do anything about it.

“Ms. Lopez, just sign it!” The other higher-ups started clamoring.

“I don’t think so.”

Right at that moment, a voice called out.

Levi was here.

He had noticed Zoey’s worrisome expression during dinner the other day. He did some investigations of his own to find out what was wrong.

To think that it was caused by the Suarez family!

“Levi Garrison? What are you doing here?”

Zachary had seen Levi in pictures before, and the very moment he laid his eyes on him, he knew he hated his guts.

The Return of God of War Chapter 433

It’s normal for enemies to want to finish off each other upon meeting. Zachary couldn’t help but want to kill Levi on sight.

With a deep frown on his face, Levi asked, “Who are you? Have we met?”

“I’m Zachary of the Suarez family. Zayn Suarez is my brother.”

Levi nodded. “Oh, that cripple!”

“You-!”

The moment he heard of the way Levi referred his brother, Zachary’s anger flared up.

“You should have stayed in South City. What are you doing here in North Hampton? Are you asking to be killed here?” Levi asked.

Zachary laughed coldly. “Don’t go thinking you’re safe with the Morris Group behind you. I’m warning you, the Suarez family is not going to stop until we’ve conquered a good part of North Hampton! You’d better sign the contract before you regret it.”

“Just screw off already.” Levi shoved Zachary away.

“You asked for it!”

Zachary’s subordinates started moving toward Levi.

Zachary stopped them.

“There’s no need for that.”

Zachary smiled at Zoey and asked, “Ms. Lopez, I hope you’ve thought about this properly. You’ll regret it if you make the wrong move.”

“I told you to leave, didn’t I?” Levi yelled.

“Okay, okay. Just you wait and see.” Zachary smiled menacingly.

“Mr. Shorts, why didn’t you just get rid of that guy?” After they exited the area, Will Brown asked Zachary in confusion. Will was the strongest fighter on Zachary’s team.

Zachary looked pissed. “You think I didn’t want to? That man has the Morris Group backing him up. Even Sebastian Lopez faced a hard time with them.”
