Chapter 292: Chapter 289: The Future

Arctic Fox!

This name had already caused Mountain Eagle’s ears to form calluses!

Mountain Eagle had never seen any active members of Arctic Fox, but the aid from those old Arctic Foxes not only allowed him to swiftly adapt to his new identity but also introduced him to too many reliable people.

In Russia, the relationship network was almost entirely built upon the ex-wives of Blood Fox and Mi Lu.

How Mountain Eagle would maintain it was his own business, but his initial step was inseparable from Blood Fox and Mi Lu.

In Southeast Asia, Eddie contributed his own wife, lifting AXA Insurance to challenge Fayiz, thus indirectly facilitating Mountain Eagle’s extortion plan.

The relationships here couldn’t simply be explained by favors, reciprocation, kinship, or trust.

Human nature is complex, but Blood Fox and the others laid open their most valuable and important things without reservation to Mountain Eagle!

They were seeking inheritance, pinning all their hopes on Mountain Eagle...

At all costs!

Facing the immense pressure, Mountain Eagle didn’t know whether to feel happy or honored.

Looking at Amelia’s smiling face, Mountain Eagle sighed and said, "If you are trying to up the ante to lock down my future, I think it’s unnecessary. I have already promised Blood Fox...

I’m not one to back down easily!"

Amelia looked at Mountain Eagle and nodded with a smile, "I believe it!

But I advise you not to make any unequivocal promises before fully understanding what kind of team Arctic Fox is, and don’t promise the old folks anything.

Maintain it, until the day you feel you must change it, shatter it, then rebuild it!

Some things are outdated, and they are simply outdated!

When the members of Arctic Fox start to cherish their lives, when they no longer rely primarily on high-risk tasks for income, they are no longer suited for the past distribution model."

As she spoke, Amelia looked at the complicated expression on Eddie’s face, hesitated for a moment, and then turned to Mountain saying, "Mountain, your tasks are far more complex than you can imagine!

As Eddie’s lover, as a victim of the Arctic Fox Blood Oath, I feel it much more profoundly than you do."

Mountain had anticipated difficulties and responded to Amelia’s warning with a solemn nod, "I understand, and I’m prepared.

Once I complete my current affairs, I will conduct a detailed evaluation of Arctic Fox.

A Mercenary Group is not a Fortune 500 company; no matter how bad the situation, I believe there’s always a solution.

If the problem can be solved with money, that would be great!"

Amelia looked at the confident Mountain and appreciatively nodded her head, then she stood up and hugged Mountain again...

Then the ’Big Sister’ looped her arm through Mountain’s and turned toward the interior of the office, looking at ’Great White Shark’ Sofia, who had been sitting behind a desk staring at the computer and phone, she said, "Is that kid yours?"

Mountain nodded and said, "Her name is Sofia, she’s kind of my partner."

After hearing this, Amelia nodded slightly and said, "This kid has the talent of an executor, but since she’s your partner, I won’t compete with you for her."

Mountain looked at Amelia warily and said, "Big Sister, poaching from your own people isn’t right!"

Amelia rolled her eyes at the wary Mountain and said, "In terms of career choices, sometimes missing an opportunity means missing the whole world.

If a Fortune 500 company invites you to be the CEO, would you decline?"

Mountain replied cautiously, "Then I’d have to first ask what kind of salary and power I could get. Sometimes a CEO is just cannon fodder in a boardroom struggle, a scapegoat. For my current situation, you’d have to pay extra!"

After hearing his response, Amelia curiously sized up Mountain and said with a smile, "You talk as if you know a lot about the Fortune 500..."

"A little, not much..."

To fend off Amelia’s covetous glances at Sofia, Mountain looped his arm through the wealthier older woman’s and turned around, smiling attentively, "Let me accompany you for a walk on the beach, Ao Nan actually has a lot of investment-worthy projects..."

Amelia shook her head and said, "No, there will be a boat coming for me soon. I have to rush to Bangkok to meet with legal representatives from the headquarters.

We’ve carried out many irregular operations this time and need to minimize legal loopholes as much as possible.

I need to meet with the Thai high-level officials, and you can arrange that, right?"

That was already the agreed upon condition, so he nodded and said, "No problem, the Deputy Director of the Royal Thai Police, Mondo, will explain in detail to you and the representatives from AXA Insurance headquarters the ins and outs of this cruise crisis and assist you with the following tasks.

Prime Minister Ba Yu will also meet with you at the earliest opportunity. The new government is very interested in overseas insurance groups, and they would certainly welcome you if you wish to expand your business in Thailand!"

Amelia looked at Mountain who switched to diplomatic language with ease and nodded appreciatively, "I understand..."

After speaking, Amelia glanced at her watch, and then, seemingly recalling something, she patted Mountain playfully and laughed, "You little rascal, you’ve blocked land and air traffic, forcing me to leave by boat..."

"I must say, you did a great job this time!"

Mountain Eagle nodded as if it were a matter of course: "This is to take responsibility for those poor tourists. They’ve endured a long and painful ordeal. Kamui is a quiet and leisurely place, very suitable for them to relax."

Amelia looked at Mountain Eagle who was talking nonsense without fear of being struck by lightning, and she shook her head slightly: "You should keep it up, I think you have the potential to become a politician."

Then Amelia whispered into Mountain Eagle’s ear: "There are two elderly couples on the cruise ship. I’ll send a boat to pick them up in a few days..."

Mountain Eagle asked slyly: "Who are they? How much are they worth?"

Amelia glared at Mountain Eagle and then said: "They are former board members of ITOCHU Corporation. Their children are now senior managers of the company. They are major clients of Ansheng Group..."

Upon hearing this, Mountain Eagle’s eyes widened: "We must make this known then. Corporate directors caring for the distressed tourists, ready to forgo their convalescence and rush back to their country despite their sickness. I’ll get Thai television to do an interview with them. We saved their lives, it wouldn’t be proper for them to leave without leaving something behind, would it?"

Amelia looked at Mountain Eagle who seemed eager to wring oil out of a few old bones and touched her goosebumped arm, glanced at Eddie who was drinking, and said: "I have to keep Eddie away from you, otherwise I worry you’ll lead him astray!"

Mountain Eagle looked at Amelia, not knowing where to vent his pent-up frustration...

Is there really more room for that old lecher Eddie to get worse?

The nearly sixty-year-old Big Sister glanced at Mountain Eagle and saw right through his thoughts...

She said cheerfully: "In my heart, Eddie is a simple person...

I know if anything happens to me, Eddie would be willing to go through fire and water for me! The truth is, being lecherous is the least noteworthy flaw in a man..."

Mountain Eagle looked at the astute Amelia with a bit of shock and curiously asked: "Then what do you think is the flaw that men should least have?"

Amelia walked leisurely on the not-so-clean beach, looking at the frolicking young men and women, and said: "Weakness, lack of responsibility, and constant complaining... I’ve been married four times, the first three were failures. In the end, I chose Eddie the mercenary as my husband because he is strong, loyal, and always optimistic. Compared to those faults which others find unforgivable, I find them acceptable."

Mountain Eagle looked at Amelia with admiration and said: "How great it would be if all women in the world were like you..."

Amelia chuckled and said: "Then you’d have to ensure that all women in the world have substantial assets from birth... When women don’t have to worry about survival and the greatest meaning of life is to pursue happiness and fun, everything will be different."

With that, Amelia looked at Tessa who was loudly directing an arm-wrestling competition nearby and said with a smile: "That’s an impressive girl, as passionate as fire... But would you want to marry her?"

Mountain Eagle, taken aback, eventually shook his head with a wry smile: "I’ve never considered that question..."

Amelia looked deep into Mountain Eagle’s eyes, her tone somewhat elusive: "Is it really too soon? A girl named Anna recently flew to Europe. She registered investment management firms in Germany and France and is wielding a business plan to lobby around. Eddie is very worried about his old buddy, so when he faces something he doesn’t understand, he consults me... Most people think that girl is backed by Victor Vekselberg, but only we know it is you who made her do that. Mountain, your actions in Moscow spawned a series of businesses so huge it’s unimaginable. But you might not even realize just how influential this asset management firm will be once it officially operates. You’ve leveraged far beyond what Blood Fox and those old guys can understand or bear; that’s why they were happy to recognize your leadership. I’m not sure what you’ve gained specifically, but one thing I’m certain of now is that Kamui, this small place, cannot hold your future."
