“Were you the one who caused Zoni to plummet ten minutes after the trading commenced?”
Hugh’s furious roars caused everyone’s expressions to change.
“Zoni? The one where Lantern Capital is the dealer and has the main holding shares?”
“I heard in order to make back the 50 million loss, Hugh put all of his money in it.”
“How could it have plummeted? Even though Zoni doesn’t have a huge market, it’s impossible to control the price without a few billion dollars.”
“My gosh, they’re seriously taking drastic measures to deal with a situation.”
The crowd who did not dare to speak because of Hugh were now like cats on a hot tin roof. All of their expressions started to change.
Suddenly, John was no longer panicking in the crowd.
He even took out a cigarette and lighted it before taking a drag happily.
Looking at the crowd around the table who were overwhelmed with shock, horror, or amazement, John suddenly wanted to laugh. He wanted to laugh at all of them.
These people had no idea how horrifying Jasper could be.
On the other hand, Jasper lifted his hand to remove Hugh’s hands before saying indifferently, “You’re involved with Zoni? I’m sorry, I didn’t like that company so I smashed its market. Now, I might let it lose a few hundred million dollars.”
Hugh felt as if his heart had been ripped out after Jasper said that.
He looked at Jasper with rancor and gritted his teeth. He said, “My entire fortune and life are on Zoni. If you smash it, then you’ll be taking my life!”
“Too bad, then.” Jasper chuckled lightly.
He lifted his eyes to look at Hugh who was like a mad dog. He said slowly, “Or maybe you can kneel in front of me? If I’m in a good mood, I might save a few coins for you to spend for the remainder of your life.”
“Jasper!” Hugh had completely lost his mind. He roared, “I’m going to kill you!”
“Shut up!”
Jasper roared all of a sudden.
All this while, Jasper’s tone had been neither fast nor slow. This was the first time he used his voice to completely overpower Hugh.
“If I were you, I’d be wondering what the investors will do to you after such a huge loss. Will they pluck your nerves or will they skin you alive?”
