With just a few words, Brad explained clearly the current treacherous situation of Swallow Capital.
No matter which country you were in, the Olympics was a big event.
What was more, it was being held in a country that was in urgent need of improving its international status.
In order to show the greatness of their great country and let people all over the world see their achievements, the Olympics would be the best opportunity to showcase this.
Therefore, this matter became the current major domestic event under global attention.
It was because of this that all aspects of the Olympic Games, from the venue construction to the theme design, would be treated with special care.
At this critical moment, Jasper was able to pull strings and make connections. Then, with the Laws mediating from within, he was able to introduce the top rich families of Harbor City to put in their funds.
This was a great thing since the big shots wanted the Mainland and Harbor City to merge more deeply.
As such, local citizens like the Turners were panicking.
They naturally did not want all the cake to be eaten up by Harbor City, so grouping together had become the best solution for this.
After listening to Brad’s words, Erik also realized that in this situation, even a family as big as the Turners could not stay calm during a tense situation.
If they were careless, they were very likely to be overturned.
However, when Erik heard Brad asking him to deal with Jasper, he started feeling queasy.
“Dad, I-I’m not his rival.”
Although it was too embarrassing for Erik to mention this, he thought about the consequences and felt it would be better to be honest.
After being struck down several times, Erik had lost the courage to face Jasper.
Brad was not surprised by Erik’s reaction. He was not even angry. Instead, he said flatly, “Who said I want you to do it yourself?”
Erik pondered carefully. Then, he felt a flash of light go off in his mind, but he did not fully understand what it meant.
Upon seeing this, Brad’s face became gloomy again.
He sighed deeply. He used to think that even though his son was not that outstanding among his peers, at least he was still excellent.
However, why did he look more and more mentally challenged after Jasper’s appearance?
“You can use Lisa and Ben,” Brad reminded helplessly.
Erik’s eyes lit up when he heard this.
If he utilized these two people well, this matter would be much easier to handle.
“Besides, Ben’s second uncle is not easy to deal with. Go back and figure it out for yourself,” Brad said lightly.
The more Erik thought about it, the more interesting it became.
As long as he did not show up when executing this plan, even if he failed in the end, Jasper would not be able to trace this back to him.
The most important thing was that he would be hidden in the dark, while Lisa and Ben would be in the light. Erik could not think of how he would lose if he combined the power of the Turners with the Haddock businesspeople from the Waterhoof branch to handle Jasper.
“I got it!” Erik said with his eyes shining with excitement.
…
Although the banquet was over, Jasper had only started getting busy.
As long as he ordered someone to handle the finishing touches, his subordinates would naturally help him do it.
However, he could not find someone to help him socialize.
