King’s Awakening - Chapter 456
Chapter 456: Chapter 456 Action!
Capital City, Northern Territory command headquarters.
After careful consideration, Andrea Jones eventually agreed to White Mitchell’s collaboration proposal, and secretly brought with her a group of powerhouses from the Jones Family, appearing in the Northern Territory command headquarters.
There were quite a few objections to Andrea’s decision within the Jones Family, including Sir Jude who was closest to her, also disagreed with her decision.
After all, this wasn’t just about Andrea, she was gambling the entire Jones Family’s future on an unknown path.
This was not a wise decision, a slight misstep could lead to the complete disappearance of the Jones Family from this world by the Deathz organization.
Andrea was not foolish; of course, she understood the risks involved.
However, compared to these risks, what Andrea valued more, were the benefits this partnership could bring to the Jones Family and herself!
If the plan was successful, the Jones Family would become the only noble family in the Imperial Capital who had ties to the White War Department.
Putting aside whether they could begin with some new ventures backed by the White War Department, just the prestige of the White War Department alone would be enough to suppress other noble families in Capital City.
Who would then dare to speak against the Jones Family?
Most likely, the Jones Family would instantly become the most sought-after noble family in Capital City.
This was Andrea’s lifelong pursuit, and also the significant reason why she had decided to cooperate with the White War Department.
Of course, Andrea also had some level of confidence, the White War Department was the White War Department after all, its internal resources were incomparable, just a single White Mitchell was sufficient to walk sideways in Capital City.
In case this collaboration indeed failed, Andrea believed that the White War Department would not abandon the Jones Family, so the threat they would face was not as large as imagined.
If the Deathz organization really had the capability to confront the White War Department head-on, they would not need to remain hidden, they could boldly face the White War Department in a fair fight.
Therefore, after careful consideration, Andrea thought this to be a collaboration that would only benefit the Jones Family without causing any harm.
“You’ve made a wise decision.” White Mitchell sat at the head seat, speaking calmly, hiding no aspect of his identity.
This was not the first time Andrea had met White Mitchell, but previously it happened at a family gathering, while now it was in the Northern Territory command headquarters.
The person was the same, but besides his face and the calm demeanor, the two versions of White Mitchell seemed almost like two different people.
While he was beside Sherry, he appeared to be a silent and overlooked character. However, right at this moment, sitting in the Northern Territory command headquarters, White Mitchell truly revealed his commanding presence developed over years of power.
Actually, the aura that radiated from White Mitchell was much stronger than any other powerful figure Andrea had ever encountered.
Even if he did nothing and just sat there, he would emit a strong oppressive aura that made one feel the compulsion to kneel before him and submit.
“Such a powerful aura!” Andrea silently thought to herself, a hint of bitterness rising within her heart.
She had originally thought that since she controlled a hundred-year-old noble family of Capital City at a young age, even if she couldn’t compete with White Mitchell, she wouldn’t have to grovel too much.
After the last family gathering, she was even more convinced that she possessed the mental fortitude to compete with White Mitchell.
However, from the looks of it now, in White Mitchell’s eyes, she was probably just a grown-up kid, not reaching the level where she could hold a conversation with him.
It wasn’t that Andrea somehow belittled herself, rather she had underestimated White Mitchell.
Only now did she realize, from beginning to end White Mitchell had never shown his real strength to her.
She feared what she saw now was just the tip of the iceberg.
How terrifying the real White Mitchell must be!
For a moment, Andrea was greatly shocked, even when she left the Northern Territory command headquarters, the complex emotions in her heart still hadn’t calmed.
Two days had passed since the collaboration was agreed upon.
Today was the final day for the noble families to gather funds for the Deathz organization, as well as the day to pay the money.
A similar scene was unfolding among all the noble families in Capital City.
The rightful heirs of each family gathered together, anxiously waiting for a phone call, a call from the Deathz organization on their mobile phones.
Almost at the same time, all the family heads’ phones rang. Cold, mechanically altered voices followed.
“The location is confirmed. Quickly, deliver the funds to the specified location immediately!”
A stream of orders flew out hurriedly from the mansions of the noble families.
Following this, vehicles full of money appeared on the streets of Capital City, heading towards different directions.
The Deathz organization was very cautious, the delivery locations for the funds raised by each noble family differed greatly, greatly reducing their chances of being captured all at once, and also significantly diverting the attention of the White War Department.
Moreover, the funds the Deathz organization demanded from the noble families were not actual cash but dispersed overseas accounts.
As long as they handed over these accounts worth ten billion to the Deathz organization, they would quickly transfer the money into their own accounts.
This process would not exceed two minutes, and thus, preventing them would be extremely difficult!
“Our location is a meat and vegetable market in the Imperial Capital suburbs, the account information and password need to be given to a blind man at the entrance.” The moment Andrea got the message, she sent it to White Mitchell first thing.
“Alright, got it. Do as they instructed.” White Mitchell replied with a simple message.
As for the details of this collaboration, Andrea didn’t quite understand, she only knew that now the elite of the Jones Family were all in the Northern Territory command headquarters, awaiting White Mitchell’s orders.
But how White Mitchell intended to use her people, Andrea was unaware.
The only thing she could do now was to act as White Mitchell instructed.
“Deliver the funds quickly. We only have an hour!” Upon receiving the message, Andrea immediately gave out instructions.
Her subordinates immediately got into action upon receiving the orders.
Cars from various noble families scattered in different directions, the whole of Capital City, seemingly peaceful on the surface, was actually swirling with undercurrents beneath.
Two current powerhouses were in the midst of an unseen chess game.
But as for who would fall, nobody knew!
