Life at the Top

“Is there anyone in Southeast Province who doesn’t know Jasper Laine from JW Investments?”

The general manager of PICS replied matter-of-factly. Then, he jolted back to his senses and asked, “It’s not your car that’s in trouble is it?”

Joseph’s grip on the business card tightened when he saw the horrified expression on the general manager’s face. He replied, “It’s my brother’s car.”

The general manager’s lips twitched as he turned instinctively to look at Jasper. When he saw Jasper looking back at him with an indecipherable expression on his face, he hurriedly straightened himself and instinctively took several steps backward. He increased the distance between himself and the Wagner brothers.

“You must be crazy! How dare you hit a car belonging to Mr. Laine’s friend?!” the general manager reprimanded.

Leonard said indignantly, “This b*tch rear-ended me!”

Just then, Joseph, who had started realizing that things were going wrong, glared at Leonard as he yelled in a low voice, “Can’t you be more f*cking civil?!”

Leonard had an aggrieved expression on his face. He wanted to say more, but he did not dare speak a word.

The general manager of PICS had a feeling that things were not as simple as they seemed when he looked at Leonard who had blood all over his face. He had no interest in getting involved and said hurriedly, “I’m going to take a look at what’s going on.”

Then, he turned and walked to the two cars.

He rarely needed to survey the scene of an accident as a general manager. These were all done by his staff. However, the general manager felt that these two cars were much easier to deal with than the brewing warzone that was happening behind him.

The more Joseph thought about it, the more insecure he felt. He glanced at Jasper before walking toward the general manager, whispering to him, “Tell me the truth. What’s his background?”
