Chapter 2536
Sebastian made a decision. He did not recover or expand the Ford Group's business. Instead, he kept the majority of its
business under the Aino Group.
At that moment, other than Eldon and Marcus, nobody knew who was the boss of the Aino group. Therefore, he would just
continue keeping his identity a secret.
In the future, the Ford Group would slowly wither away.
"Send my word out and just say that the Ford Group is no longer the same as before," Sebastian told his subordinates.
All of his subordinates sitting in the conference room understood what Sebastian was feeling at that moment.
"Mister Ford, why?" one of Sebastian's men who had fought alongside him for more than twenty years asked him
straightforwardly.
Sebastian smiled gently and shook his head. "I'm tired. I don't wish to bring trouble to myself anymore. I'll just take it as letting my
children have a peaceful life. I have all the power now, but there are still people who will challenge me from time to time. I've
figured it out after that. The reason that the others would challenge me is that I am standing at the top of the tower. It's too
striking. From now on, I want to live inconspicuously. I don't want to attract that much attention anymore. This is considered as
giving me, my children, and also my loved ones a peaceful and quiet space. This is also me giving more chances to the younger
generations."
Sebastian's words were very calm but very resolute. Once he had made up his mind, of course, he would never change it
anymore. None of his subordinates dared to refute him. All of those subordinates who had gone through fire and water with him
for years, in particular, understood him. They knew that the reason Sebastian's so-called restraining himself and staying hidden
was not because he has really gotten old or weak.
He was just deliberately hiding his abilities. He simply no longer wanted the world's attention on him. That meant that his mind
and his personality had gotten even more mature.
All of his subordinates voted in favor of his decision. From that day on, Sebastian suddenly had nothing to do anymore. There
were plenty of rumors about him out there.
"The glory days of the Ford Group are finally coming to an end. I heard that after the war in business with the Shaw family this
time, the Ford Group's fortune has shrunk quite a bit."
"That's right. Who would always be the victor? Sebastian has dominated South City for more than a decade. His daughter is
already thirteen years old this year, isn't it? Before she was born, he was already the King of South city. If we do the math, it's
really been more than a decade. It's time for someone else to surpass him. II
"It's easier said than done. If a person wanted to surpass him, the person would still need at least another five years. I think five
years may not even be enough. You have to know that even if a powerful figure were to die, his influence would not be
completely removed, let alone the fact that this powerful figure, Sebastian, is not dead. He is still very much alive. Therefore, I This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
think if someone wants to surpass him in South City, the person would need another ten years."
"Ten years may not even be enough."
"Sebastian is very good at pretending. He may look like he is laying low and you may think that he seems very weak after he was
defeated, but he may be recuperating and preparing to make this next move.
"Just take the big battle within the Ford family more than ten years ago, for example.
"Everyone thought that Sebastian was just an illegitimate child without power, who did not even have the right to the inheritance.
Also, rumor has it that Sebastian was tortured by his half-brothers until he was on the verge of dying with only a single breath left.
"Many people had seen Sebastian looking like he was about to die. He was locked up in a run-down mansion in a remote place.
However, who would have known that he would actually take control of the entire Ford Group overnight?"
"That's right. Sebastian's comeback that time simply stunned all thirty million people in South city."
"It was not as simple as just him taking over the entire Ford Group overnight back then. Which corporate group in this world
wouldn't go through a turbulent time whenever a new person took over? They said that every new leader would have their own
aides, so there would be a lot of changes in management. However, starting from the following day Sebastian took over, the Ford
Group grew by leaps and bounds."
