“Your father went back home last year. I heard that your uncle fell ill seriously, and your father was expected to be the family’s successor,”Gentry stated.
“I’m confused. My father knows everything about me, and why didn’t he contact me? Is it because that I killed Ken?”Chase Chen asked.
“Your father has his concerns. The biggest problem now is that he has no influence on the family, and if even he became the heir, I assume that people won’t listen to him. The situation is very complicated, so your father didn’t want to expose you,”Gentry Yun explained.
Chase nodded and stopped struggling with this issue and asked,”Gentry, where is my family?”
Chase asked Josh about this question, while Josh didn’t tell him.
Gentry hesitated a while and said,”Your Family is in P island in Europe and controls the island. So if you don’t have absolute power, don’t go back. Otherwise, they will eat you alive.”
Chase raised his eyebrows and thought why he would come back if they were the people that Gentry described?
What surprised Chase was that his Family controlled an island in Europe, which meant that his Family was more potent than other reclusive families.
Chase understood now why his father didn’t contact him.
However…
Chase pulled a sneer at the corner of his mouth. They were influential in Europe but not in Jol City.
Chase suddenly said,”Gentry, why don’t you stay in Jol City to spend the rest of your life?”
Chase wanted Gentry to stay who had been an 80-year-old man, and there was no need to take care of his father’s business. Gentry should take a rest.
Gentry thought about it for a second and nodded,”okay. I’ll stay to teach Cassie.”
Chase’s eyes lit up and smiled,”Good idea.”
Gentry was knowledgeable and talented, and Chase learned all his skills from Gentry. It was a blessing for Cassie to have a teacher like Gentry.
Chase was excited that Gentry would stay. Other teachers only taught Cassie knowledge, while Gentry would teach Cassie various means and techniques for survival.
Although with his current achievements, his children didn’t have to worry about survival, as a father, he hoped his children would have a bright future.
The next step was to form a chamber of commerce.
The office location was chosen was a five-star hotel of the Chen family. Given that Chen’s Family initiatively agreed that the hotel could be used for public use. Chase proposed that the Chen Family was immune from handing over fees and that they also had the priority in other matters.
Although others criticized this, they didn’t discuss further.
On the day when the chamber of commerce was established, nearly half of the enterprises in the Jol City joined in. In contrast, most of the remaining half of them were firmly related to the three major families. The three major families didn’t join that chamber;neither did they.
Since the membership fees were about one million, not all businessmen were willing to pay.
These membership fees were managed by the chamber of commerce funds, which were publicly owned. Except for daily expenses, the other money was used for investment. If a profit were made, members in that chamber would get dividends, and if it lost money, everyone had to pay for that.
What could be ascertained was that these small investments wouldn’t earn a lot of money. But the chamber run properly, members of it would get their money back.
That chamber aimed to drive the economic development of Jol City and support some weak enterprises. Jay Sis Technology and the Chen Family were the leaders.
Chase was chosen as the president of that chamber, while Josh was selected as the vice president.
Carla, who had risen from power, was chosen as the general director. As for other positions, they were also selected by members.
What surprised Chase was that Jason asked Reba to be Chase’s assistant.
Jason saw Chase was staring at him and smiled,”What? She insisted on being your assistant. I help convey her message. If you don’t want, call her.”
Chase was speechless and asked back,”Why don’t you call her and refuse?”
It was okay for Chase to have an assistant, then he didn’t have to always come to the office.
He aimed to help more enterprises not to make everyone compliment him.
Jason showed a bitter smiled,”If my words work, she won’t ignore me.”
Chase added,”Okay, then let her come, but I tell you that I’m very strict.”
Jason said,”If she couldn’t stand it, the go home to learn martial arts from her grandpa.”
Before the afternoon meeting, Reba finally came.
Reba smiled at Chase and asked,”President, what should I do?”
Chase looked up at Reba wearing a professional outfit, which perfectly outlining her figure. She looked like a professional assistant.
Chase raised his eyebrows and said,”Clean the table and chairs first.”
Reba was stunned and curled her lip.
Reba was about to clean but discovered no dust in the entire office.
But she took the towel and pretended to clean.
Reba put down the towel and talked to Chase,”President, it’s done.”
Chase even didn’t raise his head and said casually,”You take a break and wait for the meeting.”
He studied the speech draft to see how to make the excellent use of this first speech and raise everyone’s enthusiasm.
He didn’t mean to embarrass Reba deliberately. He just had no time to arrange her, while Reba thought Chase deliberately embarrassed her and sat on the sofa and played with her phone with an angry look.
A half of an hour later, Chase put away the draft and found Reba was playing phone. He was a little speechless.
He didn’t say something harsh,”Let’s go to the meeting.”
