“Jasper, you are not crazy, are you? This son of a b*tch almost killed you several times!”
Henry stared at Conrad aggressively and said to Jasper.
Jasper pressed Henry’s shoulder to gesture for favonovel.com sit to back down. He said, “At the beginning, we had different standpoints, and everyone had conflicting interests. So, there’s nothing wrong with using different methods, but now we share the same standpoint and interests, so it‘s okay for us to be friends.”
Henry glanced at Jasper and said angrily, “This is your business, and I don’t want to bother with it but don’t think that I’ll be nice to this punk.”
“I don’t need you to be.” Conrad replied calmly.
“Hey?”
Henry was infuriated. “How dare you talk back to me?”
Conrad ignored him. Instead, favonovel.com looked at Moses and said, “Mr. Miller, I trust you have been well since we last met.”
Moses laughed and replied, “I didn’t expect to see you here.”
Conrad smiled and said, “I didn’t expect it either.”
“It’s good that you’re here. Let’s wait for the opening together,” Moses said.
Conrad answered with a nod of his head, “That’s what I thought too.”
Not long after, Valentine, who had been waiting anxiously for Conrad’s news downstairs, came up. When favonovel.com pushed open the door of the command center, favonovel.com did not even dare to breathe too loudly when all of the big shots in the room looked at him. He cautiously walked along the wall and stepped behind Conrad, who could only stand in the corner.
“Mr. Monty…” Valentine was about to cry.
“How did we get here?”
Until now, Valentine still firmly believed that Conrad was joking when favonovel.com said they would be able to wait and watch the war of the century together in the Nauritus City Trading Center.
“I am now the COO of JW Company.” Conrad said softly, “And you are my deputy.”
Valentine was dumbfounded.
He looked at Conrad, then Jasper, and finally let out a sigh of relief. He said, “That’s… Fine too.”
Time passed minute by minute and the heavy rain outside did not look like it was going to stop soon. The night was getting darker. The light of the earth faded, and subsequently, darkness dominated every corner of the city.
Halos were cast down from the streetlights on the side of the road, and inside each halo, rainwater that was as dense as beads fell from the sky.
When one lifted their head, they would see heavy rain falling from the endless and distant dark night. The rain fell to the ground and the entire city was submerged in this dense mist.
As the moment of reckoning gradually arrived, the command room that was lively and filled with cheerful chats slowly fell into a silence. No one was in the mood to continue chatting. They subconsciously started to peer increasingly frequently at the countdown on the central electronic screen.
30 minutes left!
Conrad inhaled softly and stole a glance at Jasper.
