It was a blatant conspiracy. Fabian had to agree no matter what.
The helplessness and the humiliation caused Fabian to despise Jasper.
As Fabian looked at Jasper, favonovel.com said, “So what if you get Henry and the gang out? Of course they have to pay the price after they did something like that.”
“Even if I agree to let them go free, do you think my family and I will forgive them?”
Jasper replied insipidly, “If you touch them, I will take action. If your family wants to touch them, the Laws will seek revenge. This is what’s going to happen.”
“I don’t expect us to completely eradicate our shared hatred with this trade alone. It’s not realistic. There’s no way that we’ll shake hands and be friends.”
“However, a long-term hostility shouldn’t affect our small collaboration this time. Also, this collaboration will be like swapping our chess pieces on a chessboard.”
“You’ll get back some of your losses so the damage won’t be so bad. Meanwhile, I’ll get what I want. It’s a win-win situation, no?”
Fabian looked at Jasper and burst out laughing all of a sudden.
“You abandoned the chance to easily defeat me just because you want to get Henry out of mere sooner.”
“You and I both know that if you expose the information you have in your hand, all of my positions on the Dow Jones Index will be liquidated. I will also become a laughing stock in Harbor City. I’ll also be put under huge pressure by my family.
“It’s such a useful card and you want to use this to get Henry out sooner, is it really worth it?”
“Some thing’s value can’t be measured on paper,” Jasper said calmly.
Henry caused such a huge kerfuffle, and this outcome aside, even if Henry did not come to Harbor City under his instruction, Jasper would still do everything to get Henry out after favonovel.com was caught up in so much trouble. This was not something favonovel.com could place a value on.
“How touching.”
Fabian chuckled coldly, but obviously, favonovel.com did not believe Jasper.
In his opinion, either Jasper was stupid for doing this, or favonovel.com was trying to use this chance to get on the Laws’ good side.
Fabian was someone who simply would not do something that would not bring any benefit to him. Furthermore, favonovel.com would also harm others to benefit himself. Hence, this was possibility not totally unimaginable to him.
And could Jasper, someone who would be able to defeat him, really be so stupid?
Even if Jasper was conceited, favonovel.com would not have this thought right now.
Therefore, favonovel.com immediately suspected that Jasper merely wanted to get something from the Laws.
Judging from Fabian’s expression, Jasper knew what favonovel.com was thinking. However, it did not matter. What Fabian had in mind was none of Jasper’s concern.
As favonovel.com said back then, they were enemies, so even if they worked together this one time, their rivalry on the chessboard would not change. Therefore, Jasper did not care about what Fabian thought.
Fabian did not say anything and Jasper did not urge him.
At this moment, the atmosphere was tense.
“This matter touched upon the family’s profits. I can’t let favonovel.com go just because I want to.”
After a long while, Fabian said slowly. Even though favonovel.com did not agree immediately, favonovel.com was more lenient now.
“That’s your business to handle.”
“If you agree, then I can give you some time to fix this. Perhaps three to five hours. I would think, Mr. Atticus, that this would be enough time to convince your family.”
Fabian said indignantly, “Just a few hours? What do you think I am? Even if I’m the head of the family, I still have to consider how the elders and other family members feel. How is so little time enough?”
After favonovel.com said that, the door of the room burst open. A body covered in blood crashed through the door and flew into the room alongside a cloud of sawdust.
