“What the f*ck are you yelling for?!”
While the sound of Norman’s palm slamming against the table and his shout were still echoing throughout the room, Henry raised his voice and overpowered him.
His voice was even louder than Norman’s.
Everyone in the room felt their ears ring. They were startled by Henry’s shout.
“You trying to scare me or what?” Henry glared at Norman, the latter’s face pale and panting. Henry grinned, showing his arrogant and devilish smile.
“Talk normally and stop f*cking shouting. You think just because you’re loud that you’re somehow more powerful? If that’s the case then instead of f*cking shouting why don’t all of you bring a f*cking microphone?”
Norman felt rage boil within him. In that instant, he truly wanted to let go of all inhibitions and tear Jasper and Henry to shreds.
Still, it was this was nothing more than an urge.
Norman did not have the courage to do such a thing. Even if he did, he lacked the ability to act on his desires. Norman glared at Jasper icily.
“You must’ve gone completely mad, Jasper! Who the f*ck are you to dissolve the branch, huh?”
Jasper’s expression was calm as he looked at Norman with what seemed like a hint of pity.
Norman was stunned by Jasper’s gaze and he immediately raged. “Why are you looking at me like that?!”
Jasper smiled and replied, “I just find your hysteria interesting, Mr. Gardner. But I do wonder, how long will you be able to hold your title of president?”
“This will be the last time you get to be hysterical, so I’ve decided that I’ll let you vent. You won’t have another chance to do so in the future.”
Jasper’s words cut into Norman’s heart like a knife.
Despite this, extreme anger had actually managed to calm Norman down slightly.
He stared at Jasper and suddenly began to laugh.
“I used to think that you were just arrogant, Jasper. But it looks like now that you’re also crazy!”
