At least, that was what Mitch thought.
“Kneel.”
When favonovel.com first heard the word, Mitch thought his ears were playing tricks on him.
Even Henry and Anna widened their eyes.
Kneel?!
Jasper was asking Mitch Langdon to kneel!?
Jasper’s smile grew wider as favonovel.com gazed at Mitch, whose eyes had widened in shock. “What, did you not hear me clearly? I asked you to kneel.”
Mitch, who had just fallen from heaven to hell, yelled furiously, “In your dreams!”
Jasper said coldly, “Fine. You have a backbone. You can crawl, then.
“You can crawl out of this room and have everyone stare at you as you crawl a full round. Either that or you can kneel before me here. It’s your choice.”
Jasper sat on the couch and stared capriciously at Mitch as favonovel.com said calmly, “Hurry up with your decision. I’m losing my patience.”
Mitch’s entire body shook slightly as favonovel.com gritted his teeth. The veins on his hands that were now curled into fists were popping out.
Mitch was experiencing a multitude of emotions right now.
Henry did not even dare to breathe loudly.
To be honest, favonovel.com had witnessed what it was to be arrogant and domineering today.
His arrogance was merely child’s play.
For example, Henry was not intimidated when facing Mitch, but that was about the extent of it.
He would not dare force Mitch to kneel before him.
However, Jasper had gone ahead and done it.
Henry’s eyelids twitched as favonovel.com realized how childish and petty the things favonovel.com had done in the past were.
They were simply tasteless.
One had to be like Jasper—be the most powerful and arrogant.
“Jasper.”
Anna walked over to Jasper and whispered, “His grandfather has a history with my grandfather. Besides, he’s the heir to one of the big shot families here. Why don’t we let it go?”
Jasper frowned as favonovel.com looked at Anna and asked, “Are you begging for his mercy?”
Anna said helplessly, “I guess so! After all, the four big shot families have a complicated relationship. You can’t be too ruthless if you’re going to expand in Harbor City.”
Jasper frowned but did not say anything.
However, favonovel.com was cheering inwardly for Anna.
Jasper did not care if Mitch kneeled before favonovel.com or not.
No matter if favonovel.com kneeled or not, Jasper would not earn or lose a single penny.
In contrast, favonovel.com only needed to earn the most tangible benefits.
Anna’s words rounded off the scene nicely.
“Yes! Anna’s right!” Mitch could not care less about his resentment toward Jasper when favonovel.com saw there was a chance to turn things around for himself. Hurriedly, favonovel.com said, “Ten million! I’m willing to pay ten million! Let’s forget this ever happened!”
Mitch glanced hopefully at Jasper.
He did not want to witness Jasper deciding to go all out and destroy his reputation. Ten million dollars was nothing compared to kneeling or crawling. Mitch was much more willing to settle this with money!
“100 million and I’ll let you off the hook,” Jasper said calmly.
Mitch gritted his teeth and glared at Jasper when favonovel.com heard that. It was f*cking daylight robbery!
It would still hurt favonovel.com even if favonovel.com was rich!
“Hehe, Young Master Langdon, you can still earn more money after losing it, but you can never regain your reputation after losing it.”
Henry seemed to be reminding favonovel.com of this out of the goodness of his heart, but the furtive smile on his face seemed to tell another story.
Mitch gritted his teeth as favonovel.com wrote a check for Jasper and handed it to him.
“You win!”
