Jasper raised a hand to stop Jose as the latter tried to say something, and continued grandly, “In terms of investment, I won’t give you any less than Softwin!
“At the same time, all I need is full support from Abbylon’s shareholders to fight against Softwin. I’ll do everything else. I’ll invest in you and I’ll do the legwork, while all you need to do is vote for me when the time comes.”
Wayne and Jose exchanged a look before the latter told Jasper, “Mr. Laine, I hope you can give us sufficient reason to trust you by then.
“Otherwise, forgive us for choosing Softwin, who helped us in our time of need, instead of you.”
Jasper smiled. “It’s good to repay kindness with kindness. But if you know that the other party harbored bad intentions, then why repay evil with kindness?”
Jose frowned slightly. He rather disliked Jasper’s forcefulness and had no recollection of Softwin’s so-called bad intentions.
“Mr. Laine, please allow us to discuss this for another two days.”
Jose then pulled Wayne away.
Jasper narrowed his gaze as he watched the duo leave intently…
In a hotel in Nauritus City.
Echo was currently pacing about in frustration.
Beside him, Yona looked pitiful and quite funny with bandages covering his nose.
“Is there still no news?” Echo stopped walking about to ask Yona.
Yona replied with a heavy grunt, “Not yet.”
“B*stard!” Echo cursed and said darkly, “First it was Abbylon Inc, with that Jasper jumping out to cause trouble, now we can’t even contact Byron! What is this Somer dog doing?
“Does he not know I like that woman a lot? How dare he vanish on me now?”
Just then, Echo’s laptop on the table lit up.
Yona immediately went to check it and he told Echo, “Mr. Welch, Mr. Shon’s requesting for a video call.”
“Connect it.” Echo sat before the laptop solemnly while straightening his clothes. After this, a skinny and short old man appeared on the laptop’s screen.
“Mr. Shon,” Echo greeted Myles courteously.
Myles looked at Echo calmly through the laptop and said, “Echo, I heard that something happened to Abbylon? Why didn’t you report it to me?”
Echo’s palm shook slightly from where it hid under the camera as he internally cursed this old man for not trusting him; There had to be countless spies hidden by Echo’s side. Even so, the man replied politely.
“Mr. Shon, something did happen. Someone wants to invest in Abbylon and they’re asking for a very high percentage of the shares. Their investment will threaten our position in Abbylon.”
“Have you dealt with it yet?” Myles asked expressionlessly.
