Life at the Top

Chapter 518

Ian’s pupils contracted. He was about to say something when Jasper spoke again.

“Maybe you don’t have to go through all that trouble. After all, even if you find a new place, who knows if you’ll get to stay there, right?”

Ian felt a wave of unease rush over him at Jasper’s subtle smile.

He could not help but feel like there was something he had forgotten, a weakness that Jasper had already gotten hold of.

Yet no matter how he thought about it, Ian still thought that everything was in his grasp.

“All you have is the ICBS’ loan, the two ships in Harbor City, and this plot of land. That’s just three axes and you think you can win me? You wish.”

Ian sneered when he was done, but his phone suddenly began to ring again.

Ian had heard no good news every time his phone rang today, and now that his phone began to ring incessantly once more, Ian did not want to pick it up at all.

However, the display on the phone stated that it was from the hospital.

Ian had no choice but to pick it up.

“Mr. Hull, I’m calling to tell you that Ben has run out of the hospital!”

A nurse’s agitated voice echoed through the speakers.

Ian was stunned for a moment before he exploded. “What do you mean he ran out?! He’s a patient, how could you let him run out? Are you stupid?”

The nurse replied indignantly, “We’re a hospital, not a detention center, Mr. Hull. The patient is in control of his own legs. Not to mention that Ben is mentally unstable and there’s no way we can watch over him every single second.

“All the more reason to watch over him if his condition is unstable! Do you think you can take the responsibility if anything happens after he has run out?!”
