Chapter 0516 The Jentsch family reached a cooperation agreement with the New Chesire Group, and the news spread rapidly throughout the entire northern region.
In particular, the factory costing millions went through a transformation. It became the exclusive production line for the New Chesire Group in the north.
More than a dozen of the major family's trusted bodyguards were lost in the process, and those who survived were severely injured. Even if they could be treated, they would likely be rendered crippled for the rest of their lives.
Upon receiving the news, the heads of
the Locksong, Rathbone, Saunders, Weiss, Kramer, and Laurel families were almost driven to the point of madness. "Initially, I thought it was just a rumor, hardly worth believing. It wasn't until the bodyguards returned and told me that I realized Harper had truly become a traitor!" "Harper was always a fence-sitter, a traitor by nature. If only we hadn't chosen him in the first place!" "The New Chesire Group's expansion into the north lacked factories and real estate. Now, with Harper cooperating with them, everything has fallen into place for them. We've suffered a huge loss!" The six family heads were filled with anger and urgency in the pavilion of the Laurel family's backyard. "These

We absolutely cannot allow the New Chesire Group to continue to grow and prosper... Laurel, you are the strategist of our six major families. You must handle this!" The Laurel family head, Neo Laurel, indeed had far-reaching foresight.
"Everyone, don't panic." He held a cup of hot tea, leisurely sipping it, looking confident. "Have you all forgotten? When Harper's factory was built, no procedures were followed. That's the loophole!" "The supervisor in charge of the
northern market, Larry, has always had a good relationship with us. Let's have him take his personnel to the factory for an inspection. Can you guess what will happen?" "Whatever they've taken in, I'll have them spit it out intact... No, I'll make it worse! As long as Larry thoroughly investigates the factory, the complete formula of Northern Beauty will surely fall into our hands." ""Alexander is still too young to compete with us!" That afternoon, at the factory on the outskirts of Yondere City in the north, a car bearing the emblem of the mayor's office slowly pulled up at the factory gate.
"Mister Larry."
Four supervisory personnel got out of the car, each holding a dozen or so 'Do Not Enter" inspection seals. They bowed to Mister Larry and asked, "Where shall we start?" Larry, the supervisor, smirked, his eyes filled with arrogance.
"No rush!" he said.
'Didn't Harper betray the six major families by collaborating with the New Chesire Group? And isn't Alexander powerful enough? Dare he confront the mayor? Today, we have plenty of time to play with them," he thought.
"The ground is too dirty, the production environment doesn't meet the standards. Make a note of it," Larry instructed as he swaggered into the factory gates with several supervisors.
"If the security guards don't come to salute when they see us, they're seriously derelict. Make a note of it," he continued, his face twisted into a cold smile.
"The chimney's diameter is too large, emitting too much waste gas. Without even testing, it's obvious it far exceeds the standard, causing serious pollution to the surrounding environment. Make sure to note that!" he added, his voice echoing in the yard.
"Now that we've entered, Harper hasn't even personally come out to greet us. Clearly, he doesn't regard the mayor. This needs to be headline news!" he concluded triumphantly.
Beside him, the supervisory secretary nodded, quickly jotting down notes though inwardly shaking her head.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was easy to find fault if you wanted to. Larry's accusations were baseless. It had rained last night, leaving only a few small puddles on the ground.
There was no factory wastewater, and there were no environmental issues whatsoever.
Though the chimney was distant, its diameter could not possibly exceed two meters, fully complying with cosmetic production standards. There had been no prior notification, so how could Harper be expected to greet them? "Huh, who's that young man?" Larry's eyes lit up as he spotted a figure at the workshop door.
"Tell Harper to get out here and bring the production formula of Northern Beauty with him. Your factory is shut down!" he shouted.
However, as Alexander slowly turned around at the workshop entrance, his eyes scanned the group led by Larry.
His smirk only widened, and he started chuckling.
So, this was what the six major families thought of? Seemed like they had got the wrong person.
