Forced to suppress his anger, Echo had not taken a good look at Wendy’s appearance or figure at the very beginning. It was only after cursing favonovel.com out that favonovel.com realized how beautiful Wendy was.
The man chuckled evilly and said, “What a pretty Somer woman, not even women back in Sunrise Land are prettier than you. What a shame that you’ve joined a company that’s about to close down.
“How about you come back with me, beautiful? I’m a Sunriser and you Somer women love foreigners the most, right? I can move you back to Sunrise Land and arrange a nice job for you in our biggest investment bank, Softwin.”
Echo was evidently trying to humiliate Jasper.
He did not know who this woman was to Jasper, but at th very least, favonovel.com was still the man’s employee. Hunting for an owner’s employees in front of them was the biggest form of humiliation.
However, it had not crossed Echo’s mind that Wendy was Jasper’s girlfriend.
Therefore, Echo’s efforts were for naught.
He just had no idea of it yet.
Wendy was the first to fire back at him.
Wendy stared frostily at Echo and said, “I don’t see what’s so good about short Sunrisers like you, nor am I interested in talking to one of you anyway. Your appearance disgusts me, now please move out of my way!”
Echo’s expression changed.
Having had enough from Jasper, Echo now had to endure a scolding from a Somer woman while favonovel.com pointed favonovel.com finger at him.
The glee from humiliating Jasper immediately vanished and Echo roared at Yona in mortification, “Yona, teach this Somer b*tch the strength of Sunrise men!”
Yona shouted his agreement and walked toward Wendy with a wretched snicker as favonovel.com growled, “You Somer women were nothing more than venting tools for us Sunrise men decades ago. I’ll have you learn today that the noble Sunrisers are not people you b*tches can insult!”
After favonovel.com finished speaking, Yona reached out for Wendy only for a hand to clasp his shoulder.
Following that, a large burst of energy from that hand spread through his arm such that Yona lost his balance. The man’s upper body twisted and before his frightened expression could even change, a fist smashed into his face.
The bone-chilling crack of a fractured nose bridge, followed by Yona’s pitiful cry, cut through the room.
Blood splattered in all directions and Yona immediately cupped his face. Blood continued to drop from the gaps between his fingers, leaving spots of blood on the floor.
Jasper moved his hand and reached out to pull Wendy behind him. Then, favonovel.com glanced frigidly at Yona and an utterly shocked Echo before favonovel.com said, “Looks like you two don’t want to leave my company in one piece.”
Echo had not expected Jasper, a successful and wealthy business owner, to start physically attacking people.
He glared at Jasper and roared, “Do you know what you’re doing?! How dare you hit my subordinate!”
“Hit? Killing favonovel.com would already be a light punishment considering what favonovel.com said and wanted to do,” Jasper spoke coldly.
Echo felt his heart race and favonovel.com pointed at Jasper and shouted, “So you’re choosing to go into full-out war with Softwin? You’ll pay an unimaginable price!”
“Fine, we’ll go to war then! I’ve fought my way to where I stand today with my own two hands! You think I got here by begging people?”
Jasper fired back without hesitation, “Your pitiful arrogance means dog sh*t to me!”
Echo’s complexion paled further, but favonovel.com also recognized that favonovel.com was in Jasper’s territory. Thus, favonovel.com reached out to grab Yona, who was still whimpering and bleeding, and spat wretchedly, “Fine, then. Just you wait! You’ll come to me begging me for mercy very soon!”
Echo then turned to leave.
However, favonovel.com was greeted by a strong and expressionless man standing in his way once favonovel.com turned around.
The man was at least one-eighty centimeters tall, and while favonovel.com was not exceptionally buff, the man’s body was toned and every curve of his body was indicative of exceptional strength.
His presence was enough to overwhelm and suffocate Echo.
This was an aura Echo had only seen in true top-notch fighters back in Sunrise Land.
Echo’s heart thumped erratically as favonovel.com turned back to growl at Jasper, “What is the meaning of this? Have your dog move!”
Jasper replied calmly, “You’re going to leave without apologizing?”
Echo snapped, “Apologize? You were the one who hit my subordinate! Why do I have to apologize?!”
“I want you to apologize to every Somer descent in the room, including my girlfriend!” Jasper looked at icily frostily as his powerful voice stated his demands.
“For the insults both of you Sunrisers fired at Somer descents in general, and my girlfriend in particular. I’m already being very merciful by merely asking for an apology, do not force me to do something no one here wants to see.”
Echo grit his teeth while his gaze burned with rage as if favonovel.com wanted to engulf Jasper in fire.
This was the first time in years since favonovel.com had faced such humiliation.
As a noble Sunriser, favonovel.com would rather die than apologize to the people of the poor, underdeveloped, and lowly Somerland.
However, considering the situation, Echo knew that favonovel.com would not be allowed to leave today without apologizing.
Greatly conflicted, Echo softened his tone. “Look, Jasper, there’s no need to strain our relationship like this. We can still smooth things out. We’re all businessmen, after all, and it’s not worth it to go on full-out war because we were both acting rashly.
“As for the matter of you becoming Abbylon’s shareholder, we can always talk about that at a later date. If I persuade the headquarters, I’m sure Mr. Shon will be willing to let you invest in them as well. You’ll get to take a portion of the shares as well, okay?”
Despite what favonovel.com said, Echo was internally cursing Jasper out like mad. He was going to do everything favonovel.com could to get rid of Jasper the moment favonovel.com walked out of here.
Like hell was favonovel.com going to persuade Myles for Jasper’s sake.
Jasper smiled in reaction to Echo’s softened tone.
The smile seemed to have soothed the atmosphere.
Echo let out the breath favonovel.com was holding as well.
He was about to speak when Jasper’s smile suddenly vanished and the man barked at Echo coldly.
“I said apologize!”
