However, at that desperate stage when Intercontinental Group was about to collapse, the Mitxel family showed no
sign of stepping in to save it.
If the Mitxel family refused to inject funds into Intercontinental Group, it would have to close down for sure.
Sheldon did not have the courage to ask for funds from the Mitxel family. Knowing how Jared was, he knew he
would risk a verbal, or maybe even a physical thrashing from Jared if he was to ask the Mitxel family to fulfill their
promise.
At that moment, Sheldon suddenly remembered the Guardian of Mount Kush, who had possessed his father's body.
He had not paid his master, the Guardian of Mount Kush, a visit after their last meeting when it ordered him to
cooperate with the Mitxel family.
I wonder how Master is doing now? I guess I can always go to Master for help, and it will help me through this

Just as Sheldon was going through all the possible options he had in his mind, his phone rang. He fished it out and
saw it was Jared calling him.
Please tell me you're sending me the funds... Please let it be about the funds...
Sheldon prayed hard, then apprehensively picked up the call.
“How are you, Mr. Jared?” Sheldon greeted Jared respectfully.
“What's the situation like over at your end?” As usual, Jared's tone was cold and solemn.
Sheldon immediately lamented, “Oh, Mr. Jared, Intercontinental Group is on the brink of collapse! We have no
means to sustain our operations anymore, and we cannot even afford to pay our staff! If we don't get a fresh
injection of funds, we'll have to close down within the next three days!”
“So the thing you need most now is money. Am I right?” Jared asked.
“Yes, that's right!”
“If I give you a huge sum of money, can you confidently promise me you can bring down Linton Group?”
“Of course! Linton Group is in a worse situation than Intercontinental Group now. If I have some extra funds to tide
through this critical period, I can guarantee you I'll have Linton Group on its knees in no time!”
Sheldon had no idea Linton Group had successfully acquired Redwood Capital and thought it was still in a bad
financial state.
“Great! I'll transfer a sum of money to you in a while. There'll be more rewards for you after you successfully
destroy Linton Group,” Jared said.
“Oh, thank you, Mr. Jared! Thank you very much, Mr. Jared!” Sheldon was elated.
“By the way, be forewarned that Linton Group has just acquired Redwood Capital, so it's in fairly good shape now. In
other words, all your previous efforts to ruin Linton Group have gone down the drain.”

Sheldon was stunned. “You mean Linton Group is partnering with Redwood Capital again? T-This is bloody ridiculous!
How is that possible? You must be joking with me, Mr. Jared. Linton Group has one foot in the grave already, and it
has basically no hope of rebuilding itself! How did it manage to get that financing? And why would Redwood Capital
agree on that proposal?”
“I find it hard to believe too, but that is a fact. Forewarned is forearmed, so be prepared for that!”
Sheldon panicked when he sensed that Jared was about to hang up on him. “Just a minute, Mr. Jared!”
“Yes?”
“Mr. Jared, even when we were at our prime, Intercontinental Group was a league below Redwood Capital. We are
struggling badly now, so we're definitely not their match! Even if you give me a new round of funding, I can't keep
up with Linton Group, which is backed by Redwood Capital now! D-Don't you think your request is a tall order?”
Sheldon cried out.
“Backing off just when you realize you have a small problem? What a coward!” Jared sneered.
