Chapter 782 John's Wrath

Chapter 772 John's Wrath

After a long silence, Cindy Crawford sighed, "Linda, do you think we still have a reason to ask him for help? And do you think he'll even care?" At this moment, a faint look of disappointment appeared on Cindy Crawford's face. She hadn't expected such a change to occur in such a short time, which made her feel the pressure of this world of fame and fortune.

“Cindy, I’ve noticed you’ve changed. You’re too concerned about gains and losses, or rather, you’re simply afraid to accept challenges. We’re in a much better position now than we were before. What’s there to be unable to accept? Shouldn’t you have thought about this day coming when you decided to give up? If you’re scared, I’m making this call. After all, I also received that guy’s invitation.”

The more one enjoys the benefits of fame and fortune, the harder it is to give them up. Not everyone can be like Christie Turlington, choosing to withdraw directly from the industry and follow John without any official status. Although the outcome seems good now, no one knows what the future holds.

“You’re right, I have indeed changed. How could I not change when I’m in this industry? I’m genuinely afraid of losing everything, and I truly didn’t expect this to happen, didn’t expect the changes to come so quickly! That’s why I wanted to get involved in Hollywood, because I know how ruthless this industry is!” A bitter smile crept onto Cindy Crawford’s face as she spoke. The cruelty of the industry had placed immense pressure on her. Of course, most importantly, she couldn’t bear to give up the allure of fame and fortune, couldn’t bear to give up everything she had now!
“Then you should be even stronger and tell him all this. You think this is only targeting us, but I don’t think so. I think we can tell him about the situation we are in, and I believe he will give us a satisfactory answer!” Linda Evangelista was much calmer than Cindy Crawford. Faced with this situation, she did not panic, but calmly faced everything and made the right decision.

Time was of the essence, and Linda Evangelista dared not delay any longer, fearing that Cindy Crawford might make an irrational decision. After all, she cared too much about gains and losses, and too much about the world of fame and fortune. So she picked up the phone and called John directly.

"Linda, are you sure it was Jeffrey Epstein who extended the invitation to you and Cindy?" John found this situation unbelievable. How could that guy dare to make such a provocative move? There must be some treacherous and cunning people instigating this behind the scenes, most likely the oil and gas companies. The more you understand American high society, the more you realize that they say one thing in public and another in private, and they play their games even more recklessly and shadily.

"Yes, we received an invitation from this guy. You told us not to get involved with him, so we don't know what to do. We asked you for advice on how to solve the problem, and the promises he made are very tempting!"

"I understand, I'll handle it. You don't need to pay attention to her. Just be careful during this time. Try not to attend any parties or gatherings. Let me sort this out first. Otherwise, don't blame me if something goes wrong. You're being watched now. Maybe those guys are after me, or maybe they're just after you two. Be vigilant and don't trust others too much!"

John's expression darkened at this situation. This was a provocation, regardless of who was behind them. Someone had to give him an explanation, or face his retaliation. Now it was Linda Evangelista and Cindy Crawford; who would be next? Did they really think he wouldn't dare to be ruthless, or did the events in California make them think they were easy to bully?

“Mr. Morgan, I think I need an explanation. Those guys have provoked me again and continue to provoke me. What do you think I should do? I’ve already given you face and the White House face more than once or twice, but they still don’t take my goodwill seriously and continue to test my bottom line. This time, I’m not going to compromise anymore. They want war, so I’ll give them war. This is a war they started themselves, so they can’t blame me. I will no longer accept mediation!”

As soon as John finished speaking, Morgan on the other end of the phone was shocked. He could hear the boundless killing intent in John's words. Clearly, those guys had done something they shouldn't have done again and had crossed the line again. However, Morgan dared not let John take action again, as that would make things completely out of control, especially at this time.

“John, don’t be anxious. I will give you an explanation. I will explain what they did to make you so angry.”

“Mr. Morgan, I don’t want to say too much. Go ask them yourself. The White House’s warning seems to be completely useless. Since some people can do this, I have nothing to hold back!” After saying that, John hung up the phone. Morgan, on the other end of the line, was furious. This was not only a provocation of John, but also a slap in the face to Morgan and the White House. Had those guys gone this far? “Jimmy, you investigate. I need to know what those guys have done to make John so angry. Find out the problem as quickly as possible. This time, not only John can’t stand it, but I can’t either.”

When Jimmy saw his boss's furious expression, he couldn't help but shudder. He could feel the anger in his boss's heart and immediately said, "Okay, I'll arrange for someone to investigate right away. But shouldn't we also tell the White House? They should give us an explanation, since they've already stepped in."

"You don't need to worry about the White House. I'll talk to them. Now I need to know what those guys have done this time."

“Boss, I’m trying my best, but I don’t understand why they’re so crazy and keep bothering John. Do they really think the rules are just for show, or do they think they can ignore the existence of the rules?” At this moment, Jimmy was also a little confused about whether those guys had gone crazy. They kept causing trouble again and again. Weren’t they just asking for death?
"I'm afraid this isn't their own idea. There are some guys who are unwilling to compromise, who don't want to compromise. Perhaps, as John said, we've been too lenient, making them think the rules are just for show, that they can ignore the rules, and that the United States can't do without them. If we don't teach them a lesson, these guys will never know their place! Go do your business. I'll handle the negotiations with the White House. This time, they'll have to make a move!"

Hearing his boss's words, Jimmy said nothing more and quickly left to find out what those guys had done. Now, it wasn't just John who was angry, but also Morgan. After all, these guys were not only provoking John, but also slapping Morgan in the face, and even slapping the face of the entire United States. They were breaking the rules of the United States and ignoring the rules set by the United States!
“Old man, I need an explanation. It was the White House that provided the guarantee back then, and only a few days have passed, and those guys are causing trouble again, directly provoking John, slapping Morgan in the face, and even trampling on American rules. What are they trying to do? John has already come to me today. He's no longer willing to tolerate it and wants those guys to pay the price. We've been too lenient, letting those guys become arrogant and ignorant!”

After connecting with the White House, Morgan no longer showed any mercy to President Bush, directly stating his thoughts. Repeatedly provoking Morgan's bottom line and trampling on the rules was tantamount to courting death.

"Morgan, don't be so anxious. What happened that made you so agitated? You have to tell me what happened. You can't expect me to make a decision without telling me anything. I can't decide all of this by myself!" Old Bush was also somewhat shocked at this moment. For Morgan to be so angry, it was obvious that those guys had done something wrong again. These bastards didn't know what fear was. These guys were just asking for death.

“Old man, asking me is useless. I don’t know what those guys did. All I know is that they’ve thoroughly enraged John, that little fox, this time. They’ve provoked him again and again. They’re far too arrogant. This time they’ll have to pay the price. Someone has to take responsibility for all of this. This isn’t something that can be resolved with a little profit. They’ll have to pay a bloody price. John may not care, but I, Morgan, can’t let it go either. Otherwise, everyone will think I, Morgan, am easy to bully!”

As soon as Morgan finished speaking, the old man couldn't help but gasp. If even Morgan was angry, things had really gotten out of hand. Those guys had finally provoked Morgan's wrath, and the situation was spiraling out of control.

“Morgan, don’t rush. Let me find out what happened first. Even if they did something wrong, there needs to be concrete evidence and a legitimate reason. I can’t just take action against them without any evidence, can I?”

“Old man, this is your problem, not mine. You were the ones who made the guarantee back then, along with those Rockefeller guys. You should first find out if those guys were involved. If they were, then this is no small matter, and they will pay a heavy price. I need an explanation, and John needs an explanation too. No one can make mistakes repeatedly, and no one can trample on the rules without paying a bloody price. No one can do that. This is my demand, and it is John’s demand!”
