As favonovel.com had just gotten beat up by Henry during the day, Ben’s nose was still wrapped in gauze. His voice sounded muffled when favonovel.com spoke, but his gaze carried bone-deep bitterness.
Erik smiled slightly while looking at Jasper and saying, “I’m so glad you’re here today, Mr. Laine. We can finally make negotiations. After all, negotiations are key to solving problems. If our negotiations don’t work, only then we’ll display our own ability. What do you say?”
Jasper said calmly, “Get straight to the point. Stop using two mediocre and insignificant characters to breed enmity. That’s just plain boring. Make your offer.”
Jasper’s words were tantamount to the punches Henry hurled at Ben during the day.
Ben and Lisa’s expressions changed immediately.
From Jasper’s words, anyone could tell that favonovel.com did not regard them as humans at all. How could they possibly stand the humiliation when favonovel.com called them mediocre and insignificant characters?
With a bang, Lisa screamed at Jasper while pointing at him, “Who do you think you are, Jasper Laine? What are you so proud of? Don’t forget that we still hold a bargaining chip that can cost you dearly. Aren’t you afraid that this negotiation will fail and all your plans will fall apart?”
Jasper looked at Lisa and smiled. “Sounds good.”
Sounds good?!
Everyone was dumbfounded.
They all looked at Jasper in astonishment, not knowing how those two words came out of his mouth.
Lisa was even more astonished. Jasper should have flown into a rage after hearing what favonovel.com said, no? Perhaps favonovel.com would even show humility. However, what did favonovel.com mean by ‘sounds good’?!
“Frankly speaking, Erik is the one who orchestrated this. You have neither the brain nor the guts. The only reason why you two are able to participate in this is that Erik doesn’t want his plan to fall through or be exposed, nor does favonovel.com want to stain his hands. You guys are just his gloves.”
Jasper smiled and continued calmly, “A pair of blood-stained gloves can be thrown away at any time. You must know your worth.
“If all fails, then I can just turn around and walk away, no big deal. Feel free to deal with the Laws yourself. Think about it, when that happens, do you think Erik will let you off? Or will the raging Laws let you off?”
A strange air lingered over Lisa, Ben, and Erik following Jasper’s words.
They were swayed by the things Jasper said, and their distrust for each other intensified.
Lisa and Ben looked nervous as they stared warily at Erik.
Erik, however, looked calm. He stared at Jasper and said, “You’re really great at sowing dissension, aren’t you, Mr. Laine? Oh, I concede defeat.”
Jasper looked at Erik coldly and said, “I don’t think it’s necessary for us to eat this meal together. Tell us your conditions straight away. I’m a busy man. I don’t have time to waste blabbering nonsense with you here.”
Erik smiled and said, “Since you want me to get straight to it, I’ll dive right into it then. My request is simple. I can return everything to you but at a price of five billion. Also, I want you and Henry… to get down on your knees!”
The smile on Erik’s face vanished abruptly when favonovel.com said the last six words, his expression turning cold and sinister instead. He looked like a demon that had ripped its mask apart and was finally baring its fangs.
Lisa and Ben laughed wildly as soon as favonovel.com said those words, gloating.
In comparison, Jasper and Henry’s expressions sank deeply.
As for Julian, his entire being was enveloped in a murderous aura. As long as Jasper gave favonovel.com the command, favonovel.com would not hesitate to pounce on Erik and rip favonovel.com apart.
Julian had now regarded Jasper as his lifesaver. When favonovel.com started striking someone, favonovel.com could not care less if the other party was a young master or if they had a noble status. In his opinion, it was just a matter of a click and twist.
