Chapter 1576 1571: The Clamor Before Dawn
Jesse Fraser had not yet arrived at the Fraser Manor, but within the manor, the condemnation and even the conviction against him had already begun.Fortunately, Jesse Fraser's supporters within the family timely stood up to defend him.
Recently, the calls for the United Consortium to sanction the Fraser Family have been growing louder, and it's not difficult to see from the business pressures and contractions that the Fraser Family's business was under siege by several families.
This is why the Fraser Family is so anxious.
Although the Fraser Family has assets of hundreds of billions, compared to the other Eight Great Families within the United Consortium, they fall far behind.
Under their siege, unless something unexpected happens, within a year, the Fraser Family will disintegrate and vanish completely.
This is something many in the Fraser Family cannot tolerate, especially the older traditionalists of the Fraser Family.
The calls for punishing and even killing Jesse Fraser within the Family Elder Council are growing increasingly loud.
If Jesse Fraser does not die, the United Consortium's assault tactics against the Fraser Family will not cease.
Even at this moment, they still fantasize that the reason the other seven families in the United Consortium are all attacking the Fraser Family is that Jesse Fraser has touched the nerves of the major families.
By affecting others' interests, it led to their fury and today's tribulation; otherwise, why could the United Consortium maintain harmony for so many years, but during Jesse Fraser's control and representation of the family, was it suppressed by others in the consortium?
"Enough said, today Jesse will return to the manor, and then I will personally question him and make him accountable to everyone!" Mickey Fraser, the head of the Fraser Family, stated grimly.
Jesse Fraser's current power is indeed closely related to Mickey Fraser.
He is Mickey Fraser's brother and a legitimate descendant of the Fraser Family, which qualifies him to be the Fraser Family's representative abroad.
Mickey Fraser places significant trust in Jesse Fraser.
Of course, this is also inseparable from Jesse Fraser's abilities, under his leadership, the Fraser Family's assets have shown exponential growth.
Under Jesse Fraser's leadership, the overall assets of the Fraser Family have grown by at least 20%.
If the Fraser Family's assets were four hundred billion, then under Jesse Fraser's leadership, they have grown to five hundred billion, and that's in US Dollar!
Obviously, this is far from all.
But now no one remembers Jesse Fraser's achievements; they only know that he offended the other families within the United Consortium.
This caused the Fraser Family to be isolated and forced to endure the joint suppression by other families.
To quell the discontent within the United Consortium members, Jesse Fraser must first resign in shame!
Moreover, some believe that what Jesse Fraser has done has already touched the sensitive nerves of other families, and if he does not die, the Seven Great Families will not easily let the Fraser Family go.
Instead of being passively dictated by others, why not take the initiative?
Use Jesse Fraser's life as a sacrifice to show the Fraser Family's sincerity!
The person saying this is simply malicious, wanting nothing less than Jesse Fraser's life!
However, this was firmly rejected by Mickey Fraser.
Jesse Fraser is his direct brother and a powerful supporter and assistant within the family.
Mickey Fraser is self-aware enough to know that without Jesse Fraser, his influence within the family might gradually diminish.
Eventually, the position of Family Head will fall into the hands of others.
Members of the Fraser Family are far from just three or five people; even the direct descendants alone exceed a hundred.
Members of the Family Elder Council are the descendants of the Fraser Family's original founders and the descendants of their brothers.
Judged by blood relations.
Members' nieces and nephews in the Elder Council also qualify for the position of Family Head of the Fraser Family.
But the reality is, the position of the Family Head of the Fraser Family has always remained within Fraser's direct descendants.
Although over the years, the Fraser Family has not produced any remarkably talented individuals.
Both Mickey and Jesse's father, this generation's Jesse, or even Jesse's grandson have shown excellent aptitude.
Jesse Fraser is nearing sixty years old.
And his grandson is already a twenty-year-old adult.
Not only that, but he is also a top student at Cambridge University.
This year, if nothing unexpected happens, he will soon be arranged to intern in the Fraser Family's industries.
In another ten or twenty years, his father will take over as the Fraser Family's representative as a transition, and in a few more years, Jesse Fraser's grandson will be fully capable.
Then the control of the Fraser Family will continuously circulate in the Fraser Family's direct descendants.
This is something the other elders in the Fraser Family's Elder Council cannot accept.
They've already missed their opportunity, and if they don't push Jesse Fraser down now, or even drag Mickey Fraser along, there might never be another chance.
But they haven't considered, even if they bring down Jesse Fraser, or even kill him directly, then what?
Now the Seven Great Families in the United Consortium are united against the Fraser Family.
With such enormous interests at stake, even if the Fraser Family concedes, or even directly executes Jesse Fraser.
The consequences will not change in the slightest, because once the action is taken, there's no reason to stop.
Hundreds of billions of US Dollar, a single Jesse Fraser cannot satisfy their appetite?
No, not at all; unless they use the entire Fraser Family as the price, they want to swallow the Fraser Family whole.
But the Fraser Family, with its hundreds of billions in assets capable of influencing trillion-dollar assets, if they fiercely resist, they might suffer big losses.
Never underestimate the terrifying destructive power a family with enough economic strength can cause.
The United Consortium has yet to completely break with the Fraser Family and start tearing the Fraser Family apart piece by piece because they fear the Fraser Family may use all its influence and engage in self-destructive attacks against the United Consortium.
Members of the United Consortium have reached a consensus to divide the Fraser Family!
And do so at the smallest cost!
While they were discussing Jesse Fraser's affairs, Su Chen and Jesse Fraser had already arrived quietly.
