Victory in Life
Chapter 339
Erik turned to look at Jim who was lying on the hospital bed, his eyes twitching wildly.
He took a deep breath and said, "Eye change eyes, teeth change? Why don't you ask someone to beat me up?"
"That's a good idea," Henry said with a grin, "I intend to hire someone to
put you in a sack and then soak it in the ocean for a few hours to cool down, but someone refuses to let me do it."
As he said that, Henry shrugged, looking like it was embarrassing.
Erik gritted his teeth with a pouting expression, he had never seen anyone so arrogant. saying in front of his face that they were planning to immerse him in the sea?
This was just an insult to Erik!
He looked at Jasper, knowing that he was the one who would ultimately decide his fate.
Jasper, however, turned to Jim and asked, "Uncle Jim, what are you planning? If you want to get back at the blow, just say it and I'll get it over with."
Erik gritted his teeth, he could see that Jasper was serious about it, as long as Jim nodded, then he would not be able to escape the brutal blow he would get today.
Jim was lying in a hospital bed, feeling a little flattered.
He did not expect himself to one day have the power to decide Erik's life and death.
It might sound a little exaggerated to say life and death, but the brutal beating he suffered was enough to make anyone's life hanging by a thread.
He had not expected an insignificant figure like him to one day experience the highest point in this life.
For some reason, Jim suddenly realizes that nothing is constant in this world.
After thinking for a moment, Jim smiled at Jasper and said, "Forget it, Jasper."
Jasper raised his eyebrows slightly, as he was about to speak, Jim spoke again.
"Jasper, this is what I really think, when revenge breeds revenge, is there an end to it? it doesn't mean anything, it's natural for us to
retaliating after we are bullied, but we can always take another way."
"However, harmony is the most important thing in the business field, I'll let you decide specifically what you want to do, I have no opinion on this."
On the one hand, Jim had consideration about his company in the Capital Swallow, this was a small piece of land, if he pressed Erik's face to the ground and hit him, he said, he would feel happy about it but it would be difficult for him to guarantee his safety in the future.
Moreover, even if he was not afraid, what about his wife and children?
This is the most practical consideration for a middle-aged man who has experienced the harsh realities of society.
On the other hand, Jim may also have other reasons not to be too offensive to Turner.
Jasper understands Jim's good intentions.
Erik heaved a sigh of relief after hearing what Jim said.
He couldn't help but look at Jim again, Well, he wasn't really grateful, Jim was already lucky enough not to be pinched to death by a brat like Erik.
However, Jim's words had put out a thought in Erik's mind about hitting him.
After all, Jim was the least important character in this environment - a character that was under Erik's consideration.
"Five million," said Jasper.
Erik looked at Jasper in disbelief.
This grand affair could be solved with just five million?
Erik doesn't know if he should laugh at Jasper because he's stupid or if he's too lucky.
"Five million for medical expenses, this is compensation for Uncle Jim," Jasper said flatly, seemingly understanding Erik's thoughts.
Erik gritted his teeth, the excitement that had just surged through his heart gone without a trace.
The medical expenses alone are five million dollars? He demanded an exorbitant amount.
However, Erik did not care about this little bit of money, he only wanted to solve the problem now, whereas the others, he would think about it next time.
Therefore, Erik immediately nodded and agreed.
