Victory in Life
Chapter 567
"This time, I came on behalf of those people. With their support, Jasper Laine can't compare to me."
Sylva's eyes twitched as she looked at her own son. He looked like a stranger to her.
Sylva sends Zayden to Harbor City because she wants Zayden to live peacefully for the rest of his life after moving to a new place.
However, Sylva had no idea what Zayden was going through in Harbor City. He had no idea why Zayden had returned this time without anyone knowing and with so much anger buried within him.
"Even with that, all the members of the Hanks family lived carefully. Furthermore, I have offended Dawson Schuler, who has now attained incredible strength. I no longer have the right to speak on behalf of our family, so I cannot help you," Sylva said with a sigh.
Zayden chuckled loudly. "Dad, do you still not believe what I just said? The Hanks family is nothing great. They have so little influence that there is almost nothing" he said.
"In addition, we can't compete with Jasper Laine while you're still in the previous position and able to use the family's resources. How can we hope to fight him now?"
"However, this time, I have the support of the Laine family."
Zayden smiled coldly. He decides to reveal the truth to his father in order to win his trust.
"Laine Family? Which Laine family are you talking about?" ask Sylvaa. He's a little dumbfounded.
Just as Zayden was about to say something, a knock on the door stopped him.
"I'll explain everything to you slowly. One of my pawns is coming now" Zayden said. He continued to open the door.
The one who entered the room was none other than Terence Laine.
"Mr Hanks!" Terence Laine greeted Zayden politely from outside the door.
"I've met him. Hmph, what a proud and commanding man. He ignored everyone other than himself!" cry Terence instantly.
"However, he's not your rival, Mr. Hanks. He's just a little ant on the ground. Meanwhile, someone like you is destined to fly into the sky like a phoenix and become a leading figure in the industry, Mr. Hanks," Terence Laine said in a flattering voice.
Zayden chuckled without denying what he said. After letting Terence into the room, he told Sylva, "Dad, this is Terence Laine. He's a distant relative of Jasper Laine. If I'm not mistaken, he's his cousin."
Terence immediately stepped forward. He bowed to welcome Sylva. "It's nice to meet you, Uncle Hanks. I'm Terence Laine, and I'm Jasper Laine's cousin,"
he said with a look of joy and adoration on his face.
"Please sit down," Sylva said in a flat tone.
Terence did not dare to sit down. Instead, he turned to look at Zayden.
"Why are you staring at me? My father asked you to sit down" said Zayden. He pretended in a sullen tone, even though he was very satisfied with Terence's behavior.
Terence nodded and leaned over to sit right on the edge of the sofa.
"Since you've met Jasper Laine, I'll tell you what to do next. Your most important task is to find a way to join one of Jasper Laine's companies. It could be an investment company or a real estate company. Join the company first, because it will be very useful for us" Zayden said.
An awkward expression appeared on Terence's face as he understood Zayden's request. "You should have told me about that before, Mr. Hanks. I had a big fight with Jasper Laine today" he said bitterly.
"I have a 200-year-old piece of wild ginseng at home, which I originally wanted to give to you. However, Jasper Laine, that bastard, asked my father to give it to him. Being a coward, my father immediately gave it to him."
"I even had a fight with Jasper Laine over this incident."
