Life at the Top

“Dad, this was all Jasper’s doing!

“He was the one who contacted the people at Harbor City!

“We’ve all been fooled by him!”

Jasper finally found an opportunity to yell out desperately.

He sounded miserable. It was as if he had finally gotten the chance to bed a beautiful woman but it turned out she had a thicker schlong than him.

Harvey’s eyes widened after hearing that. He stared at Jasper in disbelief.

The expression on his face and the look in his eyes looked identical to the one Mark showed just moments ago.

Then, Harvey laughed.

“Not bad. I’ve been making my way around Brac County for more than 20 years, but this is the first time I’ve had a youngster run circles around me.

“You’re Jasper Laine, aren’t you? Well done. That was wonderfully executed.”

Harvey pushed his bodyguards aside and stared straight into Jasper’s eyes as he said calmly, “You’ve proven yourself by being able to deceive me at this age. Tell me, what do you want?”

Jasper stood behind the couch, using it to rest his arms. He seemed to be smiling as he stared at Harvey and said coolly, “So, you think I’m doing all this to prove my worth to you?”

Harvey’s face fell as he said, “Young man, you were still in your mother’s womb when I took charge of the Zion family’s business. It’s worth more than ten billion dollars! I would advise you not to get too snooty.”

“Is ten billion a lot?” Jasper asked calmly.

Harvey was angry now. In a cold voice, he said, “Don’t be too arrogant. Not even Dawson would speak like that to me.”

“That means you’re not on that level yet. You might think you’re in high society, but those actually in it can’t even be bothered to look at you,” Jasper said playfully as he shrugged.

“The larger the crowd, the higher the number of idiots. You’re one of those idiots. Do you think you’re royalty after making a name for yourself in Brac County, which was just a municipality a while ago?”
