Chapter 943 Hidden Agendas!


    I have a great urge to drink today!" said Peter, giggling. "Life is all about eating, drinking, and having


    fun! Who cares what time it is? We should drink our life away!"


    "Liquor has made you senseless!" Jonah scolded angrily, standing up and leaving. Seeing how his


    younger son behaved, he became even more desperate to locate Kendall.


    Though thetter inherited his ruthless personality, he was upromising in his work, which was


    what Jonah appreciated.


    Jonah couldn''t help but worry about what would happen to the Lawson Family if it were handed over


    to someone hedonistic like Peter.


    The next morning, Jonah arrived at the Holdaway Golf Estate as scheduled.


    Guided by the staff, he went directly to the dedicated reception room.


    Waiting for him there was Albert.


    "Master Lawson, greetings!" Albert warmly approached and introduced himself, "I am Albert


    Radcliff, Cole Gang''s number one strategist."


    "Your name precedes you, Mr. Radcliff." Jonah returned a smile and nced around, asking,


    "Where is Mr. Cole?"


    "Mr. Cole is having a conversation with Mr. Timothy," Albert replied. "You may not know this, but


    Holdaway Golf Estate belongs to Mr. Timothy. He and Mr. Cole are good friends."


    N?velDrama.Org (C) content.


    I see." Jonah nodded. "This is my first time at the golf estate. I didn''t expect Cleapolis to have such


    a low-key wealthy figure like Mr. Timothy."


    However, the fact was that Jonah was acquainted with John. Seventeen years ago, it was John who


    sought him and others, including Felix, to coborate in the assassination of Xavier. That said, this


    fact must remain an absolute secret as John had warned them repeatedly that if anyone dared to


    leak information, they would face extermination from higher-ups.


    Jonah had long sensed that the events of seventeen years ago were far moreplex than they


    seemed. The ''higher-ups'' mentioned by John must be influential figures beyond imagination


    because, at that time, Xavier''s 24 conglomerates were systematically undermined from within and


    completely dismantled. However, Jonah and Matt only gained control of Minor Corporation and


    Frost Corporation. The other 22 conglomerates vanished without a trace!


    Someone who could efficiently deal with 22 conglomerates spreading across the Empire of Qustia


    was certainly no small fry. Hence, Jonah had to feign ignorance about his acquaintance with John,


    pretending to be subservient to Albert.


    "Master Lawson, please wait here for a moment," Albert said. "Mr. Cole will be here shortly."


    With that, he exited the room, leaving Jonah alone to contemte.


    A hint of displeasure shed across Jonah''s eyes as he sat on the luxurious couch.


    If nicely put, Jarett was the underground overlord of Sris Province, but in less polite terms, he


    was nothing more than a ruffian.


    And he thinks he''s really some big shot! It''s already agreed that we would meet at 9 a.m., but he


    wants me to wait for him!


    However, as displeased as Jonah was, he dared not leave just like that. Leaving aside the fact that


    he needed Jarett to locate Kendall, just for the sake of Lawson Group, he had to swallow his pride.


    Lawson Group''s ability to rank in the top ten in Cleapolis wasrgely due to the Lawsons''


    connections with both legal and underworld forces.


    If they lose the underworld''s support, Lawson Group''s position would likely plummet. So, even if


    Jonah despised Jarett internally and was annoyed at him for not giving him due respect, he had to


    endure it to maintain Lawson Group''s status.


    Meanwhile, Jonah''s displeasure was on full disy before Jarett, who was in the monitoring room,


    for there was an invisible camera across from where Jonah sat.


    In the control room, John chuckled. "Jarett, your guest seems quite displeased with you."


    "Huh, I knew it. People like him, in the gray area, most definitely look down on me but dare not say


    it outright," Jarett sneered. "He wouldn''t dare ignore me like Stein does, and he''s not willing to treat


    me with the utmost respect like any ordinary person from the underworld. With people like him, you


    have to be even more cautious!"
