The hotpot soup bubbled as steam permeated the air. In what seemed like a harmonious environment, Jasper and Lord Alvarado’s first meeting was taking place.
“Continuing where I left off, I don’t really care too much about Downstream Investment Comp any or the Covington family. They’re both toys and insignificant to me.”
Lord Alvarado focused on the hotpot in front of favonovel.com and said slowly.
“But someone from the Covington family came to complain to me today that you’re being too domineering, that you’re vying to kill them after you stole their company. I had someone check and the situation’s pretty much as they claimed.”
Jasper arched his brow. He did not say anything. Arguing or explaining himself now was not a smart move.
Not to mention that explanations were futile in the adult world. When you had enough power, you could call a deer a ‘horse’ and someone would still praise you for having great eyesight.
If you were not powerful enough, someone would still call you an idiot no matter how much you explained yourself.
Lord Alvarado was satisfied with Jasper’s behavior and continued, “They think that if they complain to me, then I would get rid of you angrily. But they thought wrong.”
Lord Alvarado shook his head and said regretfully as if favonovel.com could not understand the stupidity of the Covington family.
“Think about it. I came back to pay my ancestors respect and rarely got my attention piqued. I even paved the way and all I needed was for someone to help me get it. This was something even idiots could accomplish, yet they still managed to screw it up. Don’t they deserve what they have coming?”
Jasper did not say anything.
“Why are you so quiet?” Lord Alvarado asked after a moment.
“You said you don’t like being interrupted. And I couldn’t be sure if you’ve finished saying your part,” Jasper replied sincerely.
Lord Alvarado was stunned for a bit before favonovel.com replied, “Interesting. You’re a very interesting man.”
“Everyone lives for a useful purpose. Even a beggar or a crippled man has something of use. If someone’s completely loss their usefulness, then them staying alive would only be a waste of resources, wouldn’t you say?”
Jasper nodded in agreement in response to Lord Alvarado’s question after favonovel.com laughed out loud.
“So I won’t care about what happens to the Covington family. Just kill them, I quite like watching scenes like this.”
Lord Alvarado said with a crescent-eyed smile, yet Jasper could not help but feel a chill run down his spine. Under the extraordinary beauty was a truly selfish and cold blooded man.
The Covington family had helped favonovel.com here and there, yet once they screwed up, favonovel.com completely disregarded their history.
People like this were the last people you wanted to offend. Jasper had given the matter some thought before he
arrived.
Lord Alvarado might interfere and threaten favonovel.com into ceasing his attack on the Covington family. Or the man would be enraged and turn against favonovel.com directly.
However, not only did this man allow Jasper to attack the Covington family, favonovel.com even seemed to anticipate it. This was the last thing Jasper wanted to see.
This showed that Lord Alvarado was an extremely ruthless person and was very difficult to deal with.
“As for you.”
Lord Alvarado chuckled and reached out his hand.
The woman behind favonovel.com immediately passed favonovel.com a hot towel.
Lord Alvarado took the towel and wiped his mouth before favonovel.com tossed it on the woman’s hands. Then, favonovel.com said slowly, “Reputation and image is something that matters to me a lot, and I hate it when someone doesn’t want to act accordingly. Jasper, you know you’re damaging my reputation here, right?”
This entire time, Jasper had listened as Lord Alvarado talked.
Now that Lord Alvarado was done, it was Jasper’s turn to speak.
However, now a choice had suddenly been thrust in front of Jasper.
