Life at the Top Chapter 2014
“What do you mean?”
Lord Alvarado was the first to lose his composure and asked directly, “Say, Laine, you are not being generous now. The boys and I did everything to take out all of our money for you, yet you’re playing mind games with us?
“You’re suppressing us when we need to show ourselves. What’s the matter? Are you afraid that we’ll take all of the credit?”
Jasper glared at Lord Alvarado and said angrily, “Do you know how to speak properly? If you can’t, just shut your mouth.”
Lord Alvarado was furious.
If it was anyone else who talked to him like this, he would have a fallout with that person on the spot.
However, this person was Jasper, so he was not confident about doing such a thing.
“Jasper, what are your plans?” The little
prince also glared at Lord Alvarado and
asked Jasper.
Jasper then replied, “Do you think I’m
afraid that you will take credit? I’m afraid
that your credit won’t be big enough!
“Is the credit for helping me complete a
successful defense big enough, or will the
praise be bigger if you work with me to
take down the enemy?”
Jasper had made this so clear, so Lord Alvarado, who still had a sullen face a second ago, suddenly beamed. “I understand what you mean!”
Before Jasper could show a relieved expression, Lord Alvarado’s next
sentence directly made his face darken.
“Are we going to wreak havoc in the United States stock market again? Good. This plan of attacking them from behind i s amazing. At this time, no one would think that we would raid the United States stock market. Their stock market is in such a poor state now, so if we just work slightly harder, we’ll be able to blow them up.”
Jasper looked at Lord Alvarado with an
incomprehensible look. He could not help
but say, “How does your brain work?”
Lord Alvarado replied proudly, “I’m also a
smart person. Don’t think that only you
are the only one who could think of this.
What do you think? Did I get it right?”
With a sigh, Jasper rubbed his eyebrows and said, “If the 160 billion went to the United States stock market at this time, I bet that the United States stock market would collapse completely… Then, the United States would have a complete fallout with us. They would directly freeze all the funds we invested before and make a market correction. Do you believe me if I said that would happen?”
Lord Alvarado’s smug expression froze on his face, and he was speechless for a while.
“Don’t think that such a thing is impossible. The performance of the United States financial market at this moment is just about the limit of what they can accept. Why else do you think the JW Foundation is dormant? If this is not handled well, you, me, and everyone here will have their assets raided by the United States. Right now, we’re at a strange balance.
“The balance point is that the United States has not yet made up its mind to completely have a fall out with us and create the biggest scandal in the history of human finance, but if we continue to crash the market, they will do absolutely anything shamelessly when they see their domestic economy going backward.
“It’s not like the freezing of funds and the stock market’s correction have never happened. If things really reach that point, who can stop the United States from doing such a thing?
“Thus, we cannot increase our funds in the United States stock market at present. Even if we do, we need to find a suitable opportunity, an opportunity within their acceptable range.
“This delicate balance is very important!”
“Then what exactly do you mean?” The
little prince asked, unable to keep his cool.
At this time, Simson, who had never spoken, suddenly said, “Mr. Laine, do you mean Harbor Stocks?”
