As Jake crosses paths with Jasper again, he grits his teeth. He desperately wanted to pounce on Jasper and punch him!
After returning from Law's family residence that day, Jake listens to people singing praises to Jasper while they mock him.
He wondered who the big mouth who spread the news about him being humiliated by Jasper at the Law family residence.
Thus, Jake, a rich and influential man who lives his life as if he were the main character in a novel, suddenly becomes an opposing character in a novel
He was alone in the office most of the day and didn't come out.
He knew that after this incident, he had humiliated his entire family throughout Harbor City. From then on, no one wanted to cooperate with him.
He, as a stock trader, has no funds to invest in himself, so what awaits him in the future is only death.
Jake doesn't even consider whether to go to another country to thrive.
However, at that moment, Henry's men were looking for him.
Jake doesn't have the guts not to show up in the face of Henry's call.
At this moment, he looked at Jasper who was sitting on the balcony. His back was facing the clear sky, and his casual white shirt made him look handsome under an umbrella.
Even Jake had to admit that Jasper's appearance and aura were definitely a prestigious one.
“This guy, he's from a little family from the lower classes. If only he had come from a wealthy family in the City or, perhaps he was a very successful person."
That's what Jake thought as he walked toward Jasper and Henry.
"Please sit down."
Jasper pointed to the only empty seat.
"Humiliating you?"
At that moment, Henry was displeased and said in a scornful tone, "Fuck you. Who do you think you are? Do you know how busy we are now? There are many things waiting to be resolved. Who has time to humiliate you? You're really overestimating yourself."
During the lecture, Jake gritted his teeth and roared, "Then why did you call me here? Don't tell me we're here to be friends?"
"It's not right to say that we're friends, but we can't say it's wrong from a different point of view" Jasper said, chuckling softly
Jake looked at Jasper with a hostile look. He realized that he was no longer able to see through what the person had in mind.
"City Harbor is a very important place. However, I can't possibly stay in Harbor City forever. So, I need someone in Harbor City to help me solve some business-related problems."
Jasper says it without confusion. He patted Jake and continued saying, "You're one of the candidates."
Jake finds it funny but at the same time irritated. He said, "You don't hold grudges against me and even think about putting me in a very important position? Do you think I'm a three-year-old kid who's easily deceived?"
Jasper stood up and walked to the side of the balcony.
Jake hesitated, then he followed as well and stood not far from Jasper.
At that time, if it wasn't for a group of security guards glaring from a place not far away, Jake would probably have actually pushed Jasper to end it all.
However, it was just a quick glimpse of an idea. Jake realizes that if he does that, he will be pushed down before he can even move.
Although he hated Jasper, the hatred he had did not reach the point where he would take his life.
"City Harbor is indeed a city that can amaze others. It's full of temptation, isn't it?"
Jasper faced the wind and the sky. He said those words while overlooking the entire Harbor City
