America: My Time

Chapter 758 Anxiety from All Sides

Chapter 748 Unease from All Sides
"Good that you understand. From now on, we must also be careful and avoid showing our faces. As long as things are not over, we must remain hidden behind the scenes and wait for everything to end!" Morgan sighed as he spoke. Although he had thought that John would take crazy revenge, he did not expect John's reaction to be so terrible.

What happened to Morgan also happened to others. Even Rockefeller, that old guy, was making the same arrangements, and he was doing it even faster. He didn't even return to his original residence, but chose a new place to live, just to not give any 'enemies' a chance to plot against him. After all, Rockefeller was under tremendous pressure.

Although John has outwardly agreed to end it all, they haven't given what they should have given. Now they need to hurry up and finish it. They can't keep John waiting too long, nor can they keep Old Man waiting too long, otherwise, accidents could easily happen and they could be in danger.

"Dad, did John really make a move? Those old guys all look so preoccupied. Could it be that something big has really happened in California, and John has started a fight?" On the way back, Little Bush couldn't help but ask, eager to find out the truth.

"That's right, the operation in California has already begun, but we don't know the details yet. We'll only know the situation in California when we get back to our lodgings. This time, John is really going all out, showing no mercy to those old guys. In fact, we underestimated John this time. If we hadn't shown up, if Old Martin hadn't shown up, those old guys might not have been able to give John a satisfactory explanation tonight, and they might not have seen the sun rise tomorrow!"

"No way, John would dare to make a move at Morgan's manor, or even try to kill those old guys?" At this moment, a look of shock appeared on Little Bush's face; he couldn't believe it.

"Nothing is impossible. Now that John has made his move in California, do you think he has anything left to hold back? After all, he's the victim. If those old guys refuse to compromise, it's their fault. John can kill them without consequence; he's just on the defensive. Even if he goes a bit too far, as long as he doesn't touch their assets, he'll be fine, and no one will stand up for them. They'll be respected while they're alive, but once they're dead, they'll be left with nothing. So remember, don't offend John, a guy who follows the rules, too much, or the consequences will be unimaginable. Do you think Old Martin left with them? It's because he's worried that John, that little fox, will strike again! This time, those old guys have finally played with fire and gotten themselves into big trouble. Hopefully, they won't do anything they shouldn't and can finish the deal quickly so this matter can end sooner. Otherwise, not only will New York have problems, but the whole of the United States will be in big trouble."

"Dad, are you saying John dares to wipe out their entire family?"

Old Bu Shi said in a deep voice, "Do you think it's impossible, or do you think it's unthinkable? Don't underestimate John's determination. From the moment he made the decision, Jaguar Security Company has already taken action. Most of their forces in Africa have been withdrawn back to the United States, or are on their way back, just to different destinations. It can be said that all the main branches of those families have been targeted. What do you think the worst-case scenario would be?"

"This is insane! Doesn't he worry about becoming a target himself? Such a crazy counterattack, who wouldn't be afraid? If something like this really happens, John's situation will be extremely dangerous!"

"Although it's a bit crazy, it's the best option for John. As long as he does it cleanly and efficiently, there won't be any major problems. In the end, we'll step in and smooth things over for him. This little fox has already seen through everything. They don't need to have any scruples. When that moment comes, no one will dare to oppose John because he has the American people behind him. His public image is much better than the other old guys. As long as he presents all the evidence and broadcasts it on television, what do you think the public will think? Will anyone still dare to target John? Even the US government will have to guarantee John's safety, otherwise the US will lose all face. That's his plan!"

As Old Bush and Little Bush moved towards the safe zone, John was also relocating. He wasn't staying at his original villa either, ensuring his own safety. Moreover, John was much better prepared than the others; the other side had already made comprehensive preparations. "John, do you really need to be so cautious? They wouldn't dare break the contract, much less do anything. They can't afford the serious consequences. Even Rockefeller wouldn't dare, because they know how severe the consequences would be!" Seeing John move directly to the new estate, and seeing the numerous security personnel and high-tech equipment there, Old Martin couldn't help but sigh.

“Yes, it’s absolutely necessary. I won’t put myself in danger, and I’ve prepared my original residence. If anyone has any ideas, they’ll be in for a pleasant surprise. Grandpa, from now on you will stay here. Don’t leave until this matter is over, and don’t communicate with the outside world. Our safety is the most important thing. Don’t worry about the family; I’ve made arrangements. The same goes for California. When the operation in California begins, both the family and the California side will be under the control of security personnel, and their safety will not be a problem!”

"John, what situation would it take for all this to end?"

"When those guys hand over their shares in the Federal Reserve, when they get Honest Bank on the board of the San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank, when Old Bush speaks up, and when we get news from Morgan and information from Jaguar Security, it won't end until any one side reaches an agreement. Now it all depends on the old guys' reaction and the White House's determination. If the White House moves quickly, we'll have results soon! I hope my worst fears don't come true, or things will change."

At this point, Hughes Aerospace's GPS system had already locked onto the targets he was targeting. If the situation he feared occurred, John would launch a new operation, giving those guys no chance to retaliate. Whether it would cause even bigger problems was not John's concern; he had no way out now!
"Okay, it's good that you're prepared. I hope you're right and that nothing goes wrong or any new troubles arise, otherwise things will really get out of control. Unless absolutely necessary, you shouldn't make the worst possible counterattack."

“Grandpa, I didn’t want this either, but people are often bullied when they are kind. I have no choice now. They have repeatedly ignored the rules and broken the regulations. Since they don’t follow the rules, I can do the same. Those guys don’t follow the rules themselves, yet they expect others to follow them. The agreement we made back then wasn’t just for show. If things really come to the worst, they will have to pay an even greater price for their mistakes!”

While John was talking to Old Martin, the old guys who had returned safely were trying to contact their people in California, but unfortunately, they couldn't reach any of them. This made the old guys feel terrified. They had initially held onto a sliver of hope that the old man was just joking and that the worst hadn't happened, that John, that little fox, wasn't as crazy as he seemed. But now they realized they were wrong; John was serious this time.

"Damn it, how dare this bastard be so crazy, wiping out all our forces in California? Doesn't he fear public outrage and the situation spiraling out of control? What did Rockefeller say? He couldn't have been completely unaware of this, could he? What were their losses?"

"I don't know. We haven't been able to contact Rockefeller or anyone else yet. It seems that no one has returned to their original residences and everyone has activated the emergency response. Now we can only wait for news and hope that the worst hasn't happened. However, we should also warn those guys to follow the White House's arrangements and not cause any trouble, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. Who would have thought that John, that little fox, would be so cunning as to set such a trap for us?"

"It was all because we were too careless and greedy. We underestimated John's abilities. I have to say, this guy is ruthless. He set up such a trap to scheme against us, leading us step by step into this desperate situation. If it weren't for Old Bush's intervention and Old Martin's appearance, we might not have seen the sun rise tomorrow. This guy has also laid a trap for us in New York. If we had known that this bastard was so insidious and vicious, we shouldn't have trusted Rockefeller. We wouldn't be in this predicament now. I hope things won't go wrong again."

At this point, many of the old men were lamenting that they couldn't contact each other anymore because none of them had prepared for the worst. No one dared trust anyone else at this time, as anything could happen, and betrayal wasn't out of the question. After all, greed can drive many to madness! It wasn't impossible for someone to use John, this cunning fox, or someone else to eliminate their 'opponents.' Profit is a powerful motivator, and all of these old men had enormous interests behind them, which could tempt many and lead to unforeseen circumstances!
