Chapter 82: Who Knows the Simmons Co.?
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Porta, Simmons family.
“Are you serious? Is the Taylor family really willing to give 20% of their shares as dowry for Serena?” Franklin, who received Serena’s call, immediately told his father, Dylan, about this news.
When Dylan first heard it, although he wasn’t particularly happy, he still felt a little surprised.
The Taylor family was willing to give 20% of the shares to Serena as a dowry at this critical moment. To put it bluntly, they wanted to use 20% of the shares to ask the Simmons family to help.
“It seems that the Taylor family is really in big trouble this time.” Dylan narrowed his eyes and said, as if he was thinking about something.
20% of the shares of the Taylor family was neither too much nor too little. It was at least tens of millions.
Although this wasn’t a lot for the Simmons family, no one would turn down free money.
The reason why Dylan was worried was naturally because he was worried about the people that the Taylor family had offended.
Just which big shot did the small Taylor family offend?
“Dad, do you think it’s Draco?” Franklin couldn’t help but ask at this time.
When Dylan heard this, he shook his head silently and denied, “It shouldn’t be that bad. Didn’t those channel merchants of the Simmons family say that they would re-cooperate with us this morning?
This means that the money we gave to Draco has worked. If the Taylor family offended Draco, then Draco definitely wouldn’t have given our channel merchants to the Taylor family before.”
At this time, Dylan didn’t know that those channel merchants from the Simmons family were no longer the Simmons family. All of this was ordered by Bruce to be done by Draco.
With a word from Bruce, these channel merchants could be transferred from the Taylor family to the Simmons family, and with a word, they could all leave the Simmons family.
However, Dylan and his son obviously didn’t understand this point. They thought that it was because Draco had forgiven the Simmons family that the channel merchants were returned to them.
After hearing this analysis, Franklin also nodded, but he still couldn’t understand who the Taylor family had offended.
At this time, Dylan shook his head and continued, “Don’t think too much about it. Represent the Simmons family and make a trip to the Taylor family.
“In any case, those channel merchants who want to cancel the cooperation with them aren’t very capable. I believe that with the influence of the Simmons family, we can still suppress them.
“If they insist on making things difficult for the Taylor family, you can take the opportunity to drag them to the Simmons family first. Do you understand?”
Franklin immediately understood and couldn’t help but give Dylan a thumbs up.
This was simply a plan to kill two birds with one stone. Perhaps, when they took all the resources of the Taylor family, the Taylor family would become a subsidiary of the Simmons family.
This way, the strength of the Simmons family would be further expanded.
After thinking this through, Franklin also rushed to the Taylor family.
..
At this moment, almost everyone in the Taylor family was in a state of anxiety.
Zeke was pacing back and forth in the living room with his hands behind his back. His face was filled with unease.
“Zeke, calm down. We must not panic in this situation!” Old Madam Taylor warned. But at this time, how could Zeke still be calm?
Seeing him like this, Old Madam Taylor revealed a look of disappointment. She then looked at Serena and asked, “Serena, how long will it be until Franklin arrives?”
“Soon… soon…” Serena stammered. She wasn’t sure if Franklin would really come.
Seeing this, Old Madam Taylor immediately said sulkily, “Soon? You said he would be here soon ten minutes ago, and five minutes ago. It has been half an hour, but you are still saying he would be soon. What did Franklin say on the phone?!”
“Grandma, I…” Hearing this, Serena felt even more like crying.
At this moment, a burst of noise came from outside the Taylor family’s door. Some words such as termination of contract and compensation could be vaguely heard.
When the Taylor family members heard these voices, they felt even more dejected.
“Zeke, quick, follow me out. First, persuade these channel merchants. No matter what, we have to wait until Franklin comes,” Old Madam Taylor stood up shakily and said with agitation.
When she walked to Serena’s side, Old Madam Taylor still felt uneasy, so she reminded her seriously, “Serena, the Taylor family’s fate is in your and Franklin’s hands.
Count it as me begging you. No matter what, tell Franklin to come quickly. Otherwise, our family will really go bankrupt.”
After saying this, Old Madam Taylor walked out of the living room, and together with Zeke, she comforted the restless channel merchants.
“Return the goods, terminate the contract, pay the money…”
The channel merchants’ were all worked up. Even though Old Madam Taylor begged them, they didn’t buy it at all. They were determined to make the Taylor family pay back the money.
Old Madam Taylor was so anxious that she was about to kneel down for them. Yesterday, the Taylor family still had dozens of Simmons family’s channel merchants in their hands, and they had once again taken back the National Flower Company.
For a moment, they were in the limelight and things seemed to be going well for them.
But in the blink of an eye, they had become disgraced, and everyone was against them.
“Who did I offend?” Old Madam Taylor felt miserable and resentful. She only hoped that Franklin could come earlier.
But she didn’t know that Franklin had already arrived. He had been staying nearby to watch the drama, and didn’t plan to come out so soon.
He was waiting. He was waiting for the Taylor family to be forced to the edge of the cliff. He was waiting for the Taylor family to be at their most desperate moment. Then, he would appear as the savior and save the Taylor family.
This way, the Taylor family would be even more grateful to him, and would be even more loyal to him.
Franklin watched with great interest as Old Madam Taylor appeared in public and apologized to those channel merchants one by one.
A smug look appeared on his face.
Seeing that the situation was right, Franklin pretended to just arrive and appeared in the Taylor family’s villa.
The moment they saw Franklin, the entire Taylor family felt as if they had seen their savior. They were instantly excited.
When Franklin saw this scene, he felt a sense of condescension.
“Franklin, you’re finally here…” Serena said with a sob.
Franklin said gently, “I’m sorry, babe. I was stuck in traffic for a while, so I’m late.”
At this moment, Old Madam Taylor hurriedly pulled Franklin to the front of the channel merchants and said in a fawning tone, “Everyone, please calm down. This is my grandson-in-law. He’s the Simmons Co’s…
“He can vouch for the Taylor family. Please give us some time. We will definitely give everyone a satisfactory explanation.”
Franklin coughed and walked in front of the channel merchants.
“Cough cough… that’s right. My name is Franklin. Dylan from the Simmons Co. is my father. On behalf of the Simmons family, I hope that everyone won’t make things difficult for my fiancée’s family. I promise everyone that even if something happens to the Taylor family, the Simmons family can also be a good place for everyone.
“The Simmons family’s door will always be open to everyone. I hope that everyone can consider it,” Franklin said in high spirits.
Simmons Co.?
Franklin Simmons?
Those channel merchants froze and looked at each other. When Franklin saw their expressions, he thought that they knew how powerful he was, so he continued, “The Simmons family is a blue-blood family. In a few more years, we will be able to go public. We…”
Franklin proudly showed off the strength of the Simmons Co., but he didn’t notice that the expressions of those channel merchants gradually became gloomy.
Finally, one of the channel merchants couldn’t help but kick Franklin’s stomach.
“Get lost! Who knows the Simmons Co.? If you dare to show off in front of me again, I will kill you!”
“Simmons Co. actually dares to meddle in other people’s business? Do you know who you will offend? You idiot!”
“Go back and ask your father, Dylan, if the Simmons Co. really wants to get involved. If it does, we don’t mind getting the Simmons family involved too! Get lost!”
The Taylor family members who saw this scene were instantly dumbfounded.
What… What was going on? These channel merchants didn’t even pay respect to the Simmons family?
Who did the Taylor family offend?!!
