Then, two employees came forth to grab Julian.
Julian frowned and turned to look at Jasper.
Jasper stood and stared at Scully as he said, “Are you going to arrest him without even clarifying the situation first? How high and mighty of you! Besides, what gives you the right to arrest him? Is it because you manage the property here, or because you work as the security here?”
Scully said angrily, “I don’t care what reason you had. No matter the situation, hitting people is never the right thing to do, and you should take responsibility for your actions! If your attitude improves after you come with me, I can choose not to phone the police. Else, you’re going to spend at least a couple of days in jail!”
Flynn became delighted and sneered as he said, “That’s right, did you think you’re God? Don’t think you can leave here intact!”
Jasper glanced coldly at Scully as he said, “Think twice before bringing me away. You’ll have to take responsibility for this.”
Scully stared at Jasper and smiled coldly as he said, “From the looks of it, I’m guessing you have some sort of powerful background? I’m dreadfully sorry, but that doesn’t mean a thing to me. I don’t care who you are. How am I supposed to lead my team in the future if I don’t teach you a lesson today?”
Scully had just finished speaking when an angered voice rang out behind him.
“Scully Herrett, just how are you going to lead your team?”
The expression on Scully’s face changed when he heard that voice. Turning around, he saw Victor walking toward him with a dark expression on his face. He hurriedly said, “Director Gul, what are you doing here?”
Scully was panicking now because he knew Victor would not have come here for no apparent reason. Could it have anything to do with the young man before him?
What power did this young man hold to be able to summon Director Gul?
Scully immediately felt that things were going to get troubling.
“You would’ve been in deep trouble if I hadn’t come!”
Victor’s finger nearly poked Scully in the nose.
He had been present the entire time Jasper was negotiating with the deputy mayor, and he knew how much the deputy mayor had praised Jasper after the latter left.
Without taking other matters into account, the whole city hall would be having a meeting tomorrow to place their support on everything Jasper had invested in Waterhoof City.
Who could receive such treatment?
It would not be an exaggeration to say Jasper was Waterhoof City’s God of Wealth now. Not even the deputy mayor would dare insult him.
Yet, Jasper was nearly arrested due to such trivial matters. Many people would be out of luck if a fuss was made over this.
“Director Gul, this is all a misunderstanding,” Scully hurriedly explained.
Flynn panicked as well when he assessed the situation and instinctively said, “Director Gul, you might not know this, but these two were causing a ruckus in my restaurant. They even hurt my guards.”
“Bullsh*t!”
As Victor yelled, Flynn received a shower of spit on his face.
“Mr. Laine has already told me what happened just now. You neglected to serve him and spoke rudely because you disliked how he only ordered a few cheap dishes. You were going to kick him out of the restaurant and have him arrested because of this. Flynn Herrett, who gave you the guts to do this? Was it you, Scully Herrett?!”
The expression on Scully’s face changed as he hurriedly said, “No, Director Gul. How would I dare to do that?”
Victor glared at the two before he turned and smiled apologetically at Jasper. “Mr. Laine, I’m so sorry you had to go through that due to our inadequate management. We will definitely take this matter seriously and ensure you’re satisfied.”
Both Scully and Flynn were stunned when they witnessed Victor’s attitude toward Jasper.
They had initially thought Victor was supporting Jasper because he was a youngster he had set his hopes on. However, they had not expected Victor to treat Jasper so respectfully.
“Who on earth are you?” Flynn managed to choke out the words as he glared at Jasper.
