[Chapter 188]
Rhonda grinned and did not answer, but in her heart, she was thinking about how to teach Gunther a lesson. 'How dare you touch my woman? You must be tired of living. Do you really think that Springfield belongs to the Daniels?'
However, when she recalled that Pearl had said she had informed her boss, Rhonda decided to wait.
She wanted to see this boss whom Pearl had been talking about all this time. She wanted to see if he could suppress Gunther, the local tyrant.
Besides, it would not be too late for her to make a move even if he failed.
However, it might not be enough.
Even Gunther was nothing much, his brother Morris was one of the four young masters in Springfield.
If they wanted to suppress Gunther, they had to get past Morris.
Morris was not easy to deal with.
On the other side, David was speechless when he received Pearl's call.
He thought it was a big deal.
Wasn't it just a suspended project? Why was she was worried that she was not able to recover the money?
Even if the others were afraid, he was not.
He would not be able to finish his money anyway, so they could suspend it all they wanted.
If he could, he would also have liked to bid on eight or ten more pieces of land. If he could spend the money, it would not matter if they were suspended.
However, he could not tell Pearl this, so he decided he ought to go and have a look.
Moreover, he needed to quickly settle the matter because he still had to go to Capital City.
When David got to Springfield, he called Pearl and asked for her location.
Pearl did not expect David to arrive so soon. After telling David her address, she quickly notified the team she recruited and told them that the big boss was coming.
She also quickly made herself presentable and went to an office space she rented in Springfield.
When Rhonda heard the news, she naturally followed Pearl. She had long wanted to meet the boss Pearl had been talking about.
David took a taxi and went to the office rented by the company according to Pearl's coordinates.
It was a sixty-story office building.
Pearl rented the thirty-sixth floor, but only half of it.
There were not many people in their team and renting half a floor was more than enough for them.
When David arrived, everyone gathered to welcome him.
They were also curious about who the big boss was, as they had never met the big boss until now.
They were all elites from various industries that Pearl had spent a lot of money poaching from other companies.
They were originally disdainful toward the newly established East League International Investment Group, but Pearl's offer was too high, often times being three times higher than their original company.
Many people came in with the idea of making a lot of money. As a result, just after the team was formed, the company asked them to inspect and invest in several major projects.
In only half a month, they had spent nearly 30 billion dollars and had also paid another 30 billion dollars as a deposit for a project.
After doing the math, they had spent more than 50 billion dollars in the past half month.
This kind of performance was a bit shocking even for the elites who were used to seeing grand figures.
There was only one thought in their hearts and that was 'the boss is too rich'. With such a boss, the company would only continue to grow in the future, and they would also be regarded as veterans of the company.
This was so much better than staying in their original company.
Now, they were completely different from when they first arrived, as everyone was full of energy and extremely motivated.
When Ms. Warner said that the big boss was coming, everyone naturally made themselves look presentable and prepared to welcome the boss whilst showing their best sides.
