Life at the Top

Jasper had just arrived at his office and sat down on his chair when Malcolm rushed in.

“Why’re you so nervous, Malcolm?” Jasper looked up at Malcolm curiously.

Malcolm sat down in front of Jasper and frowned. The man seemed rather tense.

“I received a call from Softwin ten minutes before you arrived,” Malcolm spoke.

“Softwin? Sunrise Land called?” Jasper chuckled.

Softwin’s reaction was far beyond what he had expected. He thought he would have to wait at least a few more days before they found out.

He had not expected Softwin to call this afternoon, right after his conversation with Wayne and Jose late the previous night.

Without having to even think about it, Jasper knew that Wayne had taken the initiative to inform Softwin.

This was a reasonable move.

If a businessman did not understand the concept of selling to the highest bidder, then they might as well give up on doing business.

Jasper wanted Softwin out of the equation, but there was no way Softwin would give up on Abbylon after their 20 million US Dollar investment. Their conflict was fate, and it was only a matter of time before he had to fight Softwin.

“No, it was a call from their Somerland branch’s presidential office. Their president’s name is Echo Welch, a capable young man that assumed the position in his thirties. He’s not going to be an easy opponent,” Malcolm spoke.

“What did he say?” Jasper asked.

“He wants you to make your way to Waterhoof City as fast as you can as he says he wants to meet you.”
