Victory in Life
Chapter 602
"A commoner like Zayden is nothing more than a pawn for us."
"While we are pawns for the one who has climbed higher than us."
Conrad's smile was light, but his speech gave people goosebumps.
"As long as you're useful, it proves that there's meaning to life in this world, if you can't even be a pawn, then how can you be a player?"
"Jasper, oh, Jasper, you don't seem to understand this situation as clearly as I thought, but it's okay, you're young, you're, The Law family will teach you in time what you should understand as a pawn."
Jasper raised his hand to cut off Conrad and spoke in despair, "Wait, Mr. Monty, I think you misunderstood."
"I'm not a pawn, though, I'm not against mutualistic partnerships with others to reap the benefits."
"Both, me and the Law family are partners, we are alliances."
"I don't know and I don't care about what your relationship with the Langdon family is, but who am I to judge if you like being someone's pawn? I had to turn down the offer because I wasn't interested."
"And for the admission that you're my opponent? forgive her straightforwardness, but you think too deeply about this, I never had any intention of going against you at all."
Jasper's words made Conrad's smile slowly disappear from his face.
Now that Jasper had finished speaking, Conrad finally concluded calmly, "So, you don't seem to be willing to bid, Jasper?"
"About what?" jasper was confused.
"Oh, I see what you mean about Zayden?"
"simple."
Conrad's indifferent gaze fell on Dawson as he spoke calmly, "Look at his future son-in-law, Mr. Schuler, he seems to lack respect, he seems to lack respect, maybe he doesn't know what the Monty family is capable of in the Southeastern Province, I believe you have a responsibility to teach him well."
Dawson coughed and replied, "Young people today seem to have a lot of ideas, Mr. Monty, I'm an old man who's almost retired, I don't have the energy to do that anymore, so I'd better let them fight on their own."
Then, Dawson grinned and spoke straightforwardly, "Additionally, this kid didn't get this far because he had someone's support, Jasper fought hard and fierce to get to where he is today, I would say that he has no less experience than me in terms of business wars."
While Dawson's speech sounded soft, it came with a sharp impact.
His words pierced through Conrad and made the man angry.
"All right then."
Conrad got up and looked coldly at Jasper and Dawson, then, he sneered, "I guess negotiations can't be done now, this is war, then."
"Good then, this will be the end of our conversation today."
"Don't forget that the Monty family has stood strong in the Southeastern Province for decades, our roots run much deeper than you can, I'm Conrad Monty, and there's nothing I can't do in the Southeastern Province!"
Then, Conrad scoffed and walked towards the door of the study.
"Please wait, Mr. Monty," Jasper suddenly spoke.
Conrad turned around and spoke to Jasper calmly, "Now do you want to bid?"
Jasper brought a cup of coffee to his lips and took a sip of it before replying to Conrad with a cheerful smile, "I'm glad you and the Langdon family are satisfied and happy with your loyalty to them, but please don't show off how proud you are to be someone's dog in front of me."
"Because the last person to do that? he met his end a long time ago."
