Jasper’s comment made Zane recover as though he had just been suffocated. He took a deep, cold breath into his lungs vigorously.
He glared at Jasper. Zane’s eyes were gleaming with terror and astonishment.
He clenched his teeth and muttered, “Impossible… You’re just a b*stard. What rights… What rights do you have?!”
Never mind that Zane could not wrap his head around why Jasper could do so, but even Henry could not figure it out.
‘This man, why is he such a hot-tempered guy?
‘He wants to purchase another person’s listed company just because of a disagreement?
‘And he f*cking succeeded?’
Henry gulped a mouthful of saliva and looked at Jasper with a gaze mixed with shock and… terror.
“What the hell is going on? What trouble did you get yourself into outside?!”
Bob’s roar was heard coming from the other end of the call once again.
Jasper chuckled softly. He took the phone from his hand before Zane could even speak and immediately spoke up to cut off Bob’s barking.
“Come over to the private room on the top floor of Mythical Dragon Kitchen to retrieve both your company and your son!”
Jasper hung up the call and tossed the phone to Zane’s hand after he was done talking. He spun around and sat beside the dining table.
Seeing that Jasper had come over to sit, Henry’s first reaction was to stand up with a jump.
In the next second, Henry was slightly embarrassed with his lackluster performance.
Just when he was thinking of saying something to rescue his pride, Henry heard Jasper saying, “Aren’t you going to serve the dishes? I’m feeling hungry now.”
‘Serve the dishes?! Serve my foot. I’ve had enough of seeing you putting on an act. Aren’t you full after putting on such an act? Yet you still want me to serve the dishes?
‘Besides, who else at this moment is in the mood to enjoy a meal?’
“I’ll immediately relay the message.”
Henry, who was frantically cursing internally, uttered those words after successfully changing his thoughts.
At a corner, Zayden suddenly felt a sense of sorrow dwelling within him as he looked at Henry’s figure. The man was happily running out to order the waiters to serve the dishes. Stunned, Zayden then looked over at Zane who was standing at the exact spot, motionless as if he had been struck by lightning.
In the province, he had just been like a dog, serving Henry as he was scared that Henry would not be pleased. After arriving at Harbor City, he was still behaving like a dog, trying to get on good terms with Zane, afraid that he would just kick him away.
‘But how about Jasper?’
As he glanced at Henry’s seemingly delighted expression, it looked exactly like himself when he served Henry previously.
Back in the province, he had made use of both Anna and Zachary to pressure Henry. After coming over to Harbor City, he immediately made Zane nearly lose his company.
Zayden clenched his fists and lowered his head, not daring to face Jasper.
Soon, the waiters presented all the dishes. Jasper took his sweet time to taste each and every dish. Henry was famished as well and picked up his cutleries to start eating.
Zane and Zayden dared not walk nor move an inch. They just stood there like wooden poles, looking at the two men eating their meal.
“Let’s start the first lesson immediately.”
Jasper suddenly put down his cutleries, drank a mouthful of water, and said to Henry who was chewing on a piece of pork.
“Mmm?”
Henry was chewing on the piece of pork and looking at Jasper absentmindedly. His mind could not process what was currently going on.
“A successful businessman, when they’re earning money, most of them have a very bad character.”
“This phrase, it sounds rather familiar?” Henry said, puzzled.
“It was Bob Lancaster who said it!”
The corners of Jasper’s lips curled into a sneer.
“Bob relies on his family business, Megan Company, which is involved with ceiling fans, to become rich. However, after entering the capital market, they excel in purchasing other companies secretly, then blackmailing them for a large sum of money.”
“So, for today’s first lesson, there are two things to it. The first is to solve a problem starting from its root, and the second lesson is to use their evil method against them to teach them a lesson!”
Henry felt a tingling sensation on his scalp when he heard Jasper’s comment.
He could not help but look at Jasper and then at Zane, who was behind him. He even had a feeling that since the very beginning, it had all been just a plan to hunt. Jasper was the hunter, and his prey was not Zane but the person behind Zane… Bob Lancaster.
The thought of it made Henry have goosebumps throughout his body.
‘How terrifying this person is to be able to look ten steps ahead in his plan?’
