Jasper’s words impressed Julian.
He certainly did not want to break the law if favonovel.com could.
What did it matter if favonovel.com was strong?
Was favonovel.com able to fight the law?
During this time, favonovel.com had clearly understood that personal strength meant nothing in the world.
Only wealth and power mattered.
As for Jasper, his calm and unhurried demeanor since the start made favonovel.com so much more powerful than Mark or Steve.
“How can I trust you?” Julian asked.
Jasper chuckled when favonovel.com realized that Julian was having a change of heart. “How much did Mark give you?”
“One million,” Julian answered honestly.
“What a big deal,” Jasper said quietly.
Then, Jasper took his phone and made a phone call in front of Julian.
“Hi, Mr. Lambert, it’s me. Withdraw two million in cash from the company’s vault. You have 30 minutes.”
Then, Jasper hung up and turned toward Julian to say, “So, can we sit down and talk now?”
Julian stared intently at Jasper before favonovel.com nodded.
Jasper treated Julian to supper in the lounge.
He was full and did not feel like eating anything, so favonovel.com just got himself and Wendy a drink each.
As for Julian, favonovel.com was so broke from using all his money to purchase Cathy’s medicine that favonovel.com had not eaten for two days.
Besides, favonovel.com was a martial artist, which further increased his body’s need for food. Thus, favonovel.com managed to eat enough for eight in one sitting…
Wendy’s eyes widened in shock as favonovel.com looked at the number of empty plates.
“Who is he? He has such a large appetite. Are you sure nothing will happen?” Wendy asked as favonovel.com poked Jasper.
Jasper smiled. “He’s the bodyguard I’ve set my eyes on. He’s great in combat.”
Wendy batted favonovel.com eyes. She was born into a rich family and thus was familiar with the concept of bodyguards. Her father’s bodyguards were usually retired members of elite troops, and they could beat up six people in one go.
Other things aside, Wendy felt that Julian could defeat five or six of favonovel.com dad’s bodyguards in terms of appetite alone.
Half an hour later, Mr. Lambert sprinted toward the hotel with a combination lock case.
Panting, Mr. Lambert placed the case down and glanced at the time.
29 minutes and 30 seconds!
Mr. Lambert let out a breath.
“Thanks for your hard work.”
Jasper looked at Mr. Lambert, who had thrown on his clothes haphazardly after being roused from bed, as favonovel.com spoke.
“No worries. As long as I didn’t hold up any procedures.”
Mr. Lambert was a smart man who made his leave after replying respectfully.
Jasper pushed the case toward Julian and motioned for favonovel.com to open it.
When Julian opened the case, favonovel.com saw 200 bundles of 100 dollar bills placed neatly inside it.
Excitement flashed through Julian’s eyes as favonovel.com said to Jasper, “What… What do you want me to do?”
“Nothing much. I just want to be friends,” Jasper replied smoothly.
Julian was startled.
Was this how rich people acted?
They would spend two million dollars just to become your friend?
However, Julian was not stupid. He knew which side favonovel.com should be on after doing a cost-benefit analysis.
Steve and Mark wanted favonovel.com to break the law, but it was obvious that Jasper would not let favonovel.com do that. His sister had also taught favonovel.com since favonovel.com was a child to be a law-abiding citizen.
“Steve was the one who got in touch with me, and the other person you’re referring to must be Mark. Steve paid me to do stuff for Mark. He wanted me to come meet you at this hotel and…
“…beat you up and then kidnap her.”
Julian paused before saying, “Before I left, I heard them saying that Mark will humiliate favonovel.com in front of you so that you’ll beg for death before they did what had to be done…”
The expression on Wendy’s face turned frosty after hearing that. She was angry.
“How vile and shameless! I never expected them to be like that!”
