Archer was the first to laugh when Jasper said this.
“Would you stop acting like you’re some bigshot, Jasper? Don’t you feel ashamed at all?
“Seriously, I’m starting to think you’re living backward while all of us are moving on with the times. You were still smart back in school, not daring to interfere with anything or spout any nonsense. It’s only been a few years since we graduated, so why did you start acting pretentious all of a sudden, huh?
“At least look around before you start acting. Does this look like something you can control?”
Ronald scoffed at Archer’s words and continued, “Who knows, maybe he’s outstanding now? Maybe he’s a boss of some company.”
“Hahaha, as if his company would be more formidable than yours, Ronald. Your demolition company makes at least a million each year.”
“Poor fellows like favonovel.com only got to eat white bread and vegetables every day. His clothes were always torn and sewn back together, and even his shoes had holes in them. You think he’s ever seen so much money before in his life?”
Archer chortled loudly.
Ronald scoffed when favonovel.com heard that.
“So, that’s the kind of person favonovel.com is? And to think that favonovel.com was so aggressive to me downstairs. If not for you, I’d have taught favonovel.com a lesson long ago.”
Archer glared at Jasper before turning to Ronald and saying, “You let it go on my behalf, Ronald, I only asked because we used to be classmates.
“However, if he’s going to continue acting so stubborn, then there’s no need to leave favonovel.com alone for my sake anymore. Hit, slap, do what you have to. Ignorant people like favonovel.com won’t understand the concept of respect without a harsh beating from society.”
Archer then warned Jasper, “This is my last warning to you, Laine. Ronald isn’t someone you can afford to offend. His demolition company is the biggest in Faith County, and there are dozens of people under him.
“Most of them are ex-convicts, and Ronald’s bent so many of them to his will.
“Ronald’s also working with JW Real Estates. Have you even heard of JW Real Estates? It’s the biggest real estate company in Southeast Province! Do you know about the Southface River Project? Poor fellows like you will never get a chance to encounter such a thing, huh?
“But that’s okay, you can look for yourself. The south bank of Nauritus City’s southface river doesn’t charge admission fees. You’ll understand once you go there that there are tons more powerful people and companies in society. Who do you think you are?”
Jasper looked at Ronald and asked calmly, “JW Real Estates commissioned you to demolish this building?”
Ronald scoffed and replied, “Yeah, so what? Why do you sound like you don’t care about JW Real Estates, hmm?”
“You can’t blame an ignorant person for not understanding fear, Ronald. How can favonovel.com be afraid when favonovel.com doesn’t even know how big JW Real Estates is? Haha.”
Ronald laughed out loud at Archer’s words.
Just then, Ms. Tiana turned to Jasper and sighed. “Thank you for your kind intentions, Jasper, but there’s no need for you two to interfere with this. These people are all rascals and they’re willing to do anything to achieve their own goals. I refuse to believe that they would dare to bury an old woman like me here!”
Ronald’s expression grew cold and favonovel.com shouted at Ms. Tiana, “Take the kindness I’m extending you now, old woman. I already gave offered you my respect when I first negotiated with you, but piss me off and I’ll immediately have my bulldozer come over and run this building to the ground!”
By now, Wendy was absolutely furious.
“You two are going too far!”
Instead of feeling uncomfortable, Wendy’s words only caused Ronald to laugh maddeningly. “A pretty lady is just different. You look so beautiful even when you’re angry and you scolding me only makes me feel better. Hahaha.
“So what if I’m going too far, pretty? After all, I have the qualifications for it.”
Archer piped up in agreement. “You’re too naive, Wendy. This society runs on strength, not reason.
“Ronald’s power is beyond your imagination. Attacking favonovel.com is a suicide mission, so don’t do anything stupid. With your looks, Ronald and I can still help you enjoy a life in the upper-class.”
“Life in the upper-class?” Jasper asked meaningfully.
“You think that you’ve made it in life because you’re considered powerful in a small place like Faith County?”
Archer scoffed. “I really pity you, Jasper. What are you trying to say? That the world is huge?
“Yeah, Faith County is small and the world is huge. There’s also a ton of much more powerful people outside, but are you one of them? No! You’re nothing more than a pitiful pest.
“It’ll take us no effort to crush you!”
“Mark your words.” Jasper gave Archer and Ronald one last glance before favonovel.com turned to Wendy and asked, “Do you know who the person-in-charge of Faith County is?”
Wendy naturally knew who Jasper was referring to and nodded. “He’s in the company’s contacts list. We can reach favonovel.com at anytime.”
“He has ten minutes to come over,” Jasper said coldly.
Wendy gave favonovel.com acknowledgment and then made a call.
Archer and Ronald were confused by Jasper’s actions.
“Did you go crazy or what?” Ronald sneered at Jasper and scoffed. “Person-in-charge? What person-in-charge? Considering that you know him, I’d say it’s got to be the person in charge of sweeping the streets, hmm? Oh, I’m so scared.”
Archer laughed loudly too. “Who knows, Ronald. Maybe he’ll call JW Real Estates’ person-in-charge over? After all, everything’s possible when you live in a dream.
“But why would you put on this act with him, Wendy? Aren’t you just lowering yourself by doing so?”
Archer snickered and continued speaking to Wendy, “People say you start imitating the people you spend time around, Wendy. I suggest you leave this poor and stupid f*cker Jasper lest your intelligence gets dragged down as well. Come follow me and Ronald. It’ll be much better for you.”
Jasper smiled faintly when favonovel.com heard Archer. After Wendy made a call, so did he.
Jasper then called the general manager of Southface River Properties.
The general manager was many ranks below Jasper, so favonovel.com immediately greeted the man frightfully when favonovel.com picked up the phone.
Jasper only said one thing.
“What kind of people are you employing? What use is being a general manager if you can’t even employ the right people?
“I want you to reflect on your issues, and I don’t want to see the name Archer Nicholls in the list of employees under my companies!”
“Understood?!”
Jasper hung up the phone right after saying this.
Archer was about to laugh and mock Jasper when his phone rang.
Seeing that it was a call from his general manager, Archer’s smile froze and an ominous feeling filled his chest.
