Life at the Top

Jasper merely chuckled when confronted with Ian’s anger. “I’m sorry, I don’t think I understand what you mean.”

Ian slammed his palm on the table with a loud bang, causing the snacks and wine on the table to splash and scatter all over the floor.

“Stop pretending to look innocent, Jasper. You were the one who leaked the news to the ICBS, right?! How else would they know about what’s happening in Harbor City if you didn’t tell them?!

“Now they’re asking me to repay the loan immediately too! Why else would they react so quickly if you hadn’t done anything?!”

Ian glared at Jasper ruthlessly. Fury burned bright red in his chest, and he wanted to throw Jasper into the Harpoon River to feed the fishes.

Jasper shrugged and replied coolly, “I have nothing to do with the bank and your loan.

“The bank recognizes that you broke the law and they want you to repay the loan in advance. That’s a matter between you and the bank. What does it have to do with me?”

Ian glared at Jasper coldly. If a look could kill, Jasper would have died thousands of times in Ian’s hands by now.

“Don’t be so proud, Jasper. It’s just a two billion Somer Dollar loan!

“I’m Ian Hull, there’s no way I’d be stopped by a mere two billion loan. If you think you can win me like this, then you can f*cking dream on!”

Jasper finally made a move in the face of Ian’s words.

Ian watched Jasper arrogantly, waiting for a reaction.

He saw Jasper slowly pull out a document and place it on the table.
