Life at the Top

‘Mr. Ray?’

Jasper looked at John with confusion.

John quickly explained, “Samuel Ray. Remember Hugh? That man had some beef with you before. Hugh was crushed in the end, remember? So it was Samuel Ray who ended up taking his place in the end.

“I don’t think you know him, considering how he happened to be outstation when we went to Royce Villa that one time. His power was just slightly less that of Hugh’s, so he’s the top dog now that Hugh has fallen.”

John’s displeased tone told Jasper that this Mr. Ray was hardly an easy person to deal with.

At the same time, Kai’s call with Samuel was connected.

Kai first relayed his stand, which was met with Samuel’s chiding from the other end of the line. Samuel was so loud that both Jasper and John could hear him clearly.

“Look, Jones, logically speaking, this is your money. Whether you want to die with it or not is not my problem. But we’ve already come to an agreement, and I also counted your funds into this. We’re entering the market tomorrow and you’re telling me that you want out now?
