Victory in Life
Chapter 418
Jasper sat on the couch. He looked at Henry meaningfully to ask him to leave and asked his situation when he saw Henry was already walking with a jarring expression.
Henry grabbed Mark's collar and pulled him off the floor. Staring at Mark fixedly, he growled, "Son, I won't threaten you or intimidate you.
"But whatever I ask after this, you better give me an honest answer. If you keep even the tiniest details of anything from me, I will drag your entire family up the mountain and bury them alive!"
Mark was so scared that he almost cried. What did Henry mean, that he would not use threats or intimidation?
Was this not a direct attempt to threaten and intimidate?!
Under the interrogation of everyone in the room, Mark did not hide anything and easily revealed everything he knew.
"Bro, boss, all I know is this-honest. A young man told me that in the evening, a woman would order a Pink Lady cocktail with double mint and sea salt. Guests who usually drink Pink Lady cocktails do not add sea salt, so it is considered a secret signal.
"After getting the signal, I went up to him and he gave me something. I then took him to the back door and handed him to the young man. I don't know who the two of them are, the man or the woman."
Mark trembled as he spoke, regret filling his stomach.
If he knew that he would end up like this today, just from earning that extra 1000 dollars, he would not dare to take the job even if he was beaten to death.
He thought he had made easy money, but unfortunately, there was no such thing as a free lunch.
"Bro, that guy gave me 1000 dollars. What if I give you money and you don't give me any more trouble? I'm just someone who came here from abroad to work. I can't afford to offend anyone among you" Mark pleaded with Henry as he gulped and pulled money out of his pants pocket.
Henry's expression was unpleasant. Cussing, he growled, "Damn it. Did you know that you helped someone scam me over a billion dollars yesterday? And in the end, you only returned 1000 dollars? You think I'm only worth that much!?"
After pulling Henry away, Jasper asked Mark, "Would you recognize the man you saw last night if you saw him again?"
Mark seemed to sense that Jasper was the only 'good man' there. Nodding his head as if prostrating, he replied, "I'm very good at identifying people I've been like that since I was a kid. I can definitely recognize him!"
"alright. For the next few days, you stay here then. Don't go anywhere. I might send someone to pick you up anytime." Jasper gave Mark a smile.
Jasper then got up and glanced at Jared. In a warm and friendly tone, he said, "Master Wade. As long as your employee is still useful to us in the next few days, let him rest and not go to work. We'll pay his salary. What say?"
Jared nodded hurriedly and bowed slightly, interrupting, "Master Laine, please, what are you saying? He was my employee - of course I had to pay his salary. You can't talk like that. I really don't deserve that kind of kindness from you."
As he spoke, Jared turned to Mark and said kindly, "Markie, I'm not assigning you to any shift for the next few days, so you can rest well. After you've finished helping Mr. Laine. I'll promote you to the supervisory position, so work hard, okay?"
Mark, who had just received a veiled blessing, looked both surprised and delighted. He immediately agreed.
After getting out of the bar, Jasper's party got into the car and left accompanied by Jared's very friendly and polite gaze.
On the way back to the hotel, Henry curled his lips and said, "Why are you treating them so politely? Look at that Wade-he can't wait to lick your boots."
Jasper said softly, "Dealing with others can be as simple or complex as you make it. Previously, Mr. Wade helped you handle some business because he was under pressure from Hector Combe."
"However, if you really treat him like a subordinate and command him, he won't cooperate with you, or he might even sell you to someone else. Who do you think will lose?"
