The Guardian's Sword

Chapter 814

Jon froze.

He froze on the spot.

He expected to see the stock soar.

Instead, he saw green lines that represented a falling stock price.

He thought that his eyes must have fooled him.

Otherwise, how could Zimmer Corporation's stock price have changed so
dramatically overnight?

Jon's hand quivered as he reached out to turn off the stock chart.

Jon then lit himself a cigarette and took two large puffs.

“Whew! Whew!”

After taking several deep breaths, Jon reopened the stock chart with trembling
hands.

Swoosh!

Everything he saw was still green.

Besides that, the green line dropped sharply again from where it was earlier.

It dropped again!

Stock charts were generally meandering curves.

Today, Zimmer Corporation's stock trend was terrifying.

It plummeted like it was falling off a cliff.

It almost became a straight line.

Besides that, it was falling faster and faster.

“B*stard!

“Who... who's behind all this?”

Jon raised his fist and smashed the table.

Even if he was stupid, he would suspect someone was manipulating Zimmer
Corporation's stocks!

Otherwise, it would not have changed so quickly.

Before Jon could call his staff, he saw his money in the stock market shrinking
sharply.

A large number of people began to sell their shares.

They cashed out in stocks as if they agreed to do it at the same time.

Jon's eyes were about to pop out of his head at the sight of it. He was desperate
to hit the pause button to stop it.

However, there was nothing he could do when participating in such a large
market.

He could not stop the investors from selling.

Therefore, he could only look on helplessly as his stock price dropped.
“B*stard! B*stard! B*stard!”

Jon turned pale as he shuddered and pounded his fist against the table.

He could not keep his cool with what was happening.

“Sir! Sirl”

The female assistant pushed the door open without knocking and entered in a
panic.

When she came in and saw the look on Jon's face, she knew he knew what had
happened.

However, she reported it anyway.

“Sir, our stock price is plummeting fast. Investors have sold their stocks to cash
out as they're scared of having their capital getting lost.

“Sir, we don’t have enough funds to sustain our business if this goes on. We can’t
even pay our overheads.

A group of company executives entered the office again after the female
assistant said that.

There was the finance manager, operations director, board member...

“Mr. Zimmer, there is a shortage of capital that we can’t sustain our operations
any longer.”

“Our stock has plummeted and is continuing to do so.”

“Sir, our stock crashed. It crashed!”

The reports were like rubbing salt into the wound for Jon.

He had expected this to happen when he saw the stock price crash.

However, he did not expect it to come so soon.

He was given a hard slap in the face before even having time to take emergency
measures.

“Mr. Zimmer, what do we do?”

“What shall we do?”

“Mr. Zimmer, say something!”

“Didn’t you say everything's under control?”

The shareholders are going to selltheir shares if you say nothing. The crowd
gathering in the officeincreased as they urged John.John leaned back in his chair
and gawked at the crowd.The faces in front of him seemedlike demons trying to
take his life.Zimmer Corporation had had a smoothsailing time under Jason's
protection.Whatever good policies there were, they would bethe first to know and
get chosen first.Jason would also inform them of anymajor changes as soon as
possible.Xander had come back with Harry.River City only knew there was a
mysteriousbig shot in town, but they were afraidto talk about it or
speculate.Jason went out on a limb and found John to warn them.However,
Jason had not sent themany more messages these days.John did not expect it to
get in trouble so soon.He thought the Zimmer family no longer needed
Jason.Now he knew how naive he was.Jason had fended off all difficulties for
themand allowed the Zimmer family to develop smoothly.It gave John a false
sense ofhow easy it was to do business.Therefore, they now could notwithstand
stress and risk.Wu.John pondered for a long time beforepicking up his phone to
call Jason.
