“Aren’t you as pleased as Punch after your trip to the United States, Mr. Laine? Not only did you earn a reputation for yourself but you also made a fortune. The news about Sena has spread throughout the entire domestic financial circle. Well aren’t you something, Mr. Laine?”
Conrad looked at Jasper and said ambiguously.
Jasper let out a faint smile and said, “I don’t have a choice, do I? I need to earn a living for my family. Money isn’t easy to earn, so I have to do something. I’m surprised you still found the time to show up at Southface River despite your busy schedule, Mr. Monty. Are you here to give me some advice?”
“I don’t consider this advice. Judging from your reputation and status, do you think I have the guts to advise you?” Conrad said with a calm countenance.
“If that’s the case, are you here to attend Southface River Project’s topping-out ceremony then?” Jasper asked with a faint smile.
Conrad’s gaze turned icy. He looked at Jasper and said calmly, “Jasper, we can shed all pretense of cordiality. You know I will never come here to celebrate your project’s topping-out ceremony.
“However, we can make a fortune together. I’m here to partner up with you this time.”
As soon as Conrad said those words, Dawson and the rest looked at him with inquiring gazes.
Jasper and the Monty family’s strife was no longer a secret in Southeast Province. They were even so close to bringing their fight to the streets.
Following the success of Sena being listed in the United States market, everyone was speculating the amount of money Jasper had earned this time around.
Although no one knew the specific amount, everyone knew one thing at least.
Jasper had changed ever since he returned from the United States.
Many people were racking their brains thinking of ways to curry favor with Jasper.
Looking at Conrad now… Was he admitting defeat?
Was he seeking peace with Jasper?
Everyone was weirded out by that thought.
As the richest family in Southeast Province, the Monty family had been a giant sitting above the Southeast Province’s upper class circle for far too long.
Right now, this giant was about to collapse.
All of a sudden, everyone felt conflicted.
Jasper was the calmest of all.
They said that your enemy knew you best.
Jasper understood people like Conrad the most.
There was no way he could settle as an official or a general because it was absolutely impossible for him to yield to others.
A person like that would only end up in two ways—be a king, or die.
How could Conrad submit to him?
Jasper was extremely vigilant, yet his tone remained calm while revealing a hint of curiosity.
“Partner? Let’s listen. I’m really curious to know how this cooperation would work.”
