Life at The Top novel Chapter 1088

Henry was disinterested when he saw that Dudley had held himself back. He mocked the latter with a pout and then ignored him.

Henry turned around only to see Perry, who he proceeded to mock with a sinister tone, “How much money did this coward give you to turn you into his dog, old baldy?”

Perry was stunned for a moment before he replied, mortified, “What nonsense is that! I’m a truly knowledgeable intellectual! A real expert! How could I be bribed? Stop defaming me! ”

“Yo, what a knowledgeable man indeed. Such formal terms even when you’re scolding people, ” Henry chuckled. “If It’s not money, then maybe it’s women? or perhaps he promised both money and women?”

Perry’s pupils contracted and he silently wondered who this young man was. This was someone that Dudley did not dare to fight back against even though he had been pushed around. Someone who seemed to be very aware of his deal with Dudley.

“My dad got tired of such immature slander years ago. What’s the point in acting like you’re some sh*t in front of me?” Henry said disdainfully.

“You know, old baldy, sometimes it’s easy to say things, earn easy money, and sleep with easy women. But these things all come with a price.

“The more you benefit, the more you have to pay. Unless, of course, you were born in a f*cking awesome family like I was. But seeing how you’re already so old, I doubt that you’ve been blessed in that area.

“Since you didn’t get born in a great family, then you should think twice before you take or sleep with anything. Think first if you can afford to pay the price, because if you can’t, then all that’s left for you is a tragic end.”

Henry patted Perry’s chubby cheeks arrogantly and snickered happily before he turned to leave.

Perry was a man reaching his sixties and this was the first time he had been humiliated so thoroughly. Mortified, he turned to Henry and scolded, “ Uneducated! How did your parents raise you for you to end up so disrespectful and undignified! You’re an eyesore and shame on your family!”

He had set himself up for trouble.

Henry’s head snapped back as he stared darkly at Perry, a storm brewing in his eyes.

Dudley’s expression paled when he heard Perry shout. The memory of Henry’s dark gaze from earlier reminded him of the fear associated with Henry, such that the man did not dare to stand in latter’s path. Thus, he could only pretend that he did not hear
anything.
