Chapter 209: Truly Bankrupt!



“Will, what’s all this racket so early in the morning about? Bankruptcy, who’s going bankrupt, is it really worth all your bellowing?”

Just as Will Jones was panicking, an unhappy voice echoed from downstairs. It was Old Madam Jones.

Will came to his senses, forgetting even to change out of his sleeping shorts, and ran directly downstairs.

“Mom, we’re in trouble, Ryan said that our Jones Group is going bankrupt!” Will stood on the stairs, and after saying this sentence, staggered, and tumbled down the staircase, presenting a sight of utmost clumsiness.

What!?

The Jones Group is going bankrupt!?

When Old Madam Jones heard this, she stood still in shock, barely able to process the information, then overrules all concern for Will’s injuries and directly demands an explanation: “What exactly is going on? Explain everything clearly!”

Will scrambled up from the floor, revealing an expression of panic: “Mom, I don’t know either. I just received the news. I’m about to return to the company.”

Upon seeing this, Old Madam Jones’s brow furrowed into a frown, her tone urgent: “Hurry up, I’ll go back with you!”

At her words, Will nodded his head, regardless of his appearance, he ran out of the door in his pajamas, jumped in the car, and rushed towards the Jones Group’s building.

About an hour later, Will and Old Madam Jones appeared at the base of the Jones Group building.

As soon as they arrived downstairs, they saw Ryan hiding in a corner, defeated and with a face covered in dirt, his appearance made him seem like he had been beaten up.

Upon seeing Ryan, Will immediately demanded, “Ryan, what’s going on? Everything was fine yesterday. How did the company suddenly announce bankruptcy?”

At this time, both Will and Old Madam Jones fixed their gaze on Ryan, their eyes filled with an air of examination and blame.

Seeing Will, Ryan instantly broke into sobs, his eyes welling up with tears: “Mr. Jones, you’ve finally come, if you had taken any longer, they might have beaten me to death!”

Hearing these words, both Will and Old Madam Jones’s faces donned a layer of dark clouds that refused to dissipate.

“Enough of your bullshit! Get to the point!” Will could not help but scold.

At his words, Ryan collected himself, and honestly began telling them: “Mr. Jones, I don’t know what happened either. This morning when I arrived at work, a group of people were forming a blockade around the company.”

“They all wanted to return their products, and not only that, all the newly established distributors stated they wanted to terminate their cooperation with us.”

“That old man, Elijah Bailey, even took all of our old employees with him. The new employees thought the company was going under and came to me for help, and I was attacked by them.”

What!?

Upon hearing this news, Will’s face darkened like the bottom of a pot and his mood became extremely irritable.

“Is that all there is to it? How is that bankruptcy?” Old Madam Jones couldn’t help but continue asking.

After looking at Will, Ryan obediently responded: “Managing Director, there’s something you may not know. Our cash flow has been interrupted. Last night, our funds were frozen by the bank, and this morning they asked us to repay our loans.”

“Now all distributors, suppliers, including our factory, have all cancelled their cooperation with us. Even those business partners who had previous dealings with the Jones family have all cut ties with the Jones Group today.”

“Not only that, I just received a call from the court that they intend to take inventory of our assets and claim that… we, the Jones Group, are bankrupt!”

This…

If Will and Old Madam Jones had any hope left earlier, after hearing these words, even that tiny glimmer of hope had dissipated utterly.

With two heavy steps, Old Madam Jones staggered and almost slumped onto the ground.

At this moment, Old Madam Jones’s face was filled with a death-like pallor.

The Jones family had worked so hard for all these years and they were beginning to see a glimmer of hope, becoming a top-tier wealthy family. Old Madam Jones had thought that she would finally be able to fulfil this long-held desire during her lifetime.

She never would have imagined that before a day could pass, her joy would be completely extinguished.

Not only that, the Jones family was unable to safeguard their ancestral business, and now the court was ordering them into bankruptcy.

“What on earth is going on?

What actually happened?

Old Madam Jones stood bewildered in place, her mind as muddled as a mush.

Next to her, Will Jones, was not faring any better. He was as restless as an ant on a hot pan, unable to sit still.

“Mr. Jones, you’d better go upstairs to check, otherwise, I’m worried about the employees. I…” Ryan continued, an expression of difficulty written on his face.

Already distressed, Will Jones, on hearing these words, lost his temper even more, scolding directly, “What do you mean ‘go upstairs’? Isn’t that walking right into their trap?

You go upstairs right now, calm the employees first, and say that the issues of the company would be sorted out by the board of directors—ask them to stay patient.

Do you hear me? What are you still doing here? Hurry up!”

I…

On hearing these words, Ryan’s face turned green. Damn, was he being sent to take the bullets for Will Jones?

Will Jones, at this moment, didn’t spare Ryan another glance and hurriedly left the scene with Old Madam Jones.

The two of them made their way to the parking lot. Once Will Jones confirmed that there was no one around, he couldn’t help but say, “Mom, you should call your old friends right away and ask them what on earth is going on!

The Jones Group can’t just go bankrupt! If we go bankrupt, the Jones family is truly done for!”

Hearing this, Old Madam Jones hurriedly took out her phone and called a few old friends she often interacted with.

These people were old acquaintances of the Jones family, having certain business dealings, and they usually kept in touch.

Unluckily, Old Madam Jones called several of them and no one picked up.

This situation undoubtedly brought a sense of despair to Old Madam Jones.

They were trying to cut all ties with the Jones family!

Old Madam Jones’ heart clenched. She persistently made several more calls.

Finally, after making more than a dozen calls, one of her old friends picked up.

But as soon as he heard Old Madam Jones’ voice, he immediately blurted, “How could I forget to block your number?”

Hearing these words, Old Madam Jones bitterly smiled, and quickly pleads, “Nathan, Nathan, don’t hang up yet, I beg you, tell me who is making you do this.

What exactly happened? I beg you, if you don’t tell me, this time, it really will be the end of our Jones family!!!”

On the other end of the phone, after hearing Old Madam Jones’ desperate voice, there was a pause. Then he spoke, “Your Jones family has messed with someone you shouldn’t have!

You’d best take care of yourself. Why did you change the general manager for no reason? You picked up a rock only to drop it on your foot. Now look, you’ve caused your company to go bankrupt.

As an old friend, let me give you a word of advice, ‘Disasters caused by nature can be forgiven, disasters caused by oneself are unforgivable!’”

“Nathan, what do you mean by this? Nathan, Nath… beep, beep, beep…”

The cold dial tone seemed to confirm Old Madam Jones’ current mood. At that moment, her mind was filled only with the words her old friend had just said.

Why change the general manager for no reason?

Picked up a rock only to drop it on your own foot?

Wham!

Old Madam Jones looked shocked, as if she had just thought of something. She immediately turned pale, and couldn’t help but murmur to herself, “Could it… could it be…”
