Life at The Top novel Chapter 1053

Lisa’s expression darkened when she saw the papers in Jasper’s hands.

She knew that Jasper had found a weakness and without a reasonable explanation, Jasper would surely blow the issue up. She would be put in a difficult position then.

“I don’t know,” Lisa turned her head away and replied unnaturally, “Why would I know what he has on him.

Dudley wiped the blood from the corner of his lips and scoffed. Yet he did not say a word.

It was evident that the two planned to leave the matter alone by denying and remaining silent.

Jasper looked at the two and spoke, “So you’re not going to admit it? Alright, then.”

Jasper then turned to look at the receptionist who was still dazed and frightened. He spoke, “Could you please call Mr. Gardner?”

“Huh?” The receptionist looked at Jasper blankly. Her brain had yet to catch up to what was happening.

“Tell him that if he doesn’t come over and deal with this as fast as he can, then I’ll sue his daughter on grounds of stealing trade secrets.”

Lisa jumped up like a cat who had her tail stepped on. “What nonsense is that, Jasper?!

“You have to take responsibility for your words! You can’t just accuse me of stealing trade secrets without evidence! You really think you’re on top of the world?”

“We’ll know if we investigated,” Jasper spoke calmly.

With that, Jasper turned to look at the receptionist. The latter did not dare to anger Jasper so she immediately found Norman’s number and called him.

At the same time, Lisa was also cueing Dudley with her gaze, urging him to do something.

Dudley’s expression was sour.

Lisa was the one who handed him the documents. Dudley knew that his Teo Chamber of Commerce was planning to attack Haddock’s Chamber from its Waterhoof City branch and he wanted to make a huge contribution. He had not expected to be caught red-handed at the very last moment.

The matter could potentially be blown into something huge, depending on whether people wanted to investigate it or not.

With the way Jasper acted, it was unlikely he would let the matter go.

Dudley’s eyes darted around and his expression kept changing.

“The asset forum conference held by the Teo Chamber of Commerce to attack the Haddock Chamber is about to commence. Yet the daughter of Haddock’s Chamber of Commerce’s President brought a businessperson from Teo into the Waterhoof City branch station to steal all of Haddock’s core future plans.”

“What do you think will happen if word gets out? Do you think your father, as President of the Chamber, would praise you for being understanding or hang you up and scold you for being a failure?”

Dudley’s expression darkened extremely at Jasper’s words.

“What do you want?” Dudley asked, clenching his teeth and ignoring the pain on his lips.

“Simple. Tell me what transaction you two made and I’ll let you go immediately. I also won’t hold you accountable,” Jasper replied calmly.

Dudley’s eyes flickered and asked, “Really?”

“I have no reason to lie to you,” Jasper replied.

Lisa immediately spoke, seeing how Dudley was persuaded to tell, “Mr. Ball! Don’t fall for this crafty and vile man’s lies! Who knows what bad intentions he’s got in mind!”
