Chapter 389

“I’ve prepared a few tricks to play with the Zimmer family.

“I’ve never run a company, but business is like the battlefield, and battlefield tactics are not necessarily incompatible with business warfare.

“Let’s bring down their business and cripple them first.

“Then they’ll ask others for help, but we’ll be the only one to help them.

“Block the Zimmer family from others first. And cripple anyone who dares to help them.”

Zander sealed the Zimmer family’s fate with those words.

It would take some time.

After all, the world was nothing like the battlefield.

You could not just decisively start a war right away just because you were upset.

In this world, you had to obey the law.

Even if Zander used a law–abiding way to deal with the Zimmer family, there was nothing Zander was afraid of.

“Got it, Brother Zander.

“I’ll take care of these things,” Harry replied with a nod.

Zander nodded and prepared to go downstairs.

“Brother Zander, something’s been bothering me…‘

Harry hesitated for a few seconds before calling Zander anyway.

“What is it?

“Since I’ve brought you here, you’re the one I trust most.

“You don’t have to keep secrets from me.”

Zander turned around and looked at Harry.

“Brother Zander, sometimes I wonder if you… have the wrong person?”

Harry hesitated for a few seconds before making up his mind and asking out loud.

“What do you mean?”

Zander frowned slightly at what he said.

“I had never met Commander Lennon before in the Northwest, but I had heard of legends about him.

“Anyone knows Commander Lennon is a legend. He’s masterful in war tactics and could win wars thousands of miles away.

“Commander Lennon was always referred to as the unbeatable God of War.

“They say he’s aloof, ruthless, and unstoppably domineering.

“He’s like a god in the Northwest army.

“But now…”

Harry closed his mouth slowly as he spoke of this.

Zander picked up where Harry left off.

“But now he’s ordinary and is content to be ordinary.

“He’s not as domineering and ruthless as legends said, right?”

Harry froze slightly when Zander said this. Then he gritted his teeth and nodded.

“Yes!”

Harry found it hard to identify Sean as Commander Lennon, who commanded millions of soldiers.

It was why he wondered if Zander had mistaken him for someone else?

“I understand what you’re saying.

“But what you have to understand is that you have to do things that are appropriate with your status.

“Because there are things that the Commander can’t do right now, you know?”

Harry nodded with a hazy notion after Zander finished.

“As a matter of fact, I’m glad that the Commander’s behaving this way.

“Because few people can accept a life of abjection when they used to lead a glorious life.

“But the Commander can. He has a clear sense of his current status and what he needs to do.”

Harry nodded when Zander finished speaking.

However, his honest character still could not understand it fully.

Zander shook his head in frustration. You had to keep things simple with Harry.

“Just imagine.

“The Commander’s in a wheelchair right now, and he tells everyone he’s a nine–star commander with millions of brothers under his command.

“Do you think it’s realistic? Can you do that?”

Zander said it so straightforwardly that Harry finally understood.

“Brother Zander, I got it.

“It means that even if the Commander has the intention, he isn’t as powerful as he used to be.

“So he can only endure it for the time being?”

Zander nodded once Harry finished.

“The Commander has always been very adaptable.

“Just wait and see. The Commander’s old ruthlessness will surely return after he recovers.

“By then, the entire River City and even the Souz River Province will be trembling at his feet, not to mention the Zimmer family.”

Zander then walked away after he finished.

He knew Sean’s fall from grace was only temporary.

How could someone who would slaughter one hundred thousand of the enemies‘ men just because they upset him be willing to be ordinary?

—

The next day.

Sean asked Ziegler to drive him and Willow to Riverleaf Lakeside Hotel.

Yesterday, Zander had called Sean and told him to come over and see if he needed anything else.

Sean would not say no to that, of course.

“Sean, where are you taking me?”

Willow asked in confusion as she sat in the car.

“We’re here.”

Sean smiled and pointed to Riverleaf Lakeside Hotel, which was in front of them.
