Life at The Top novel Chapter 1287

Almost everyone had already arrived and were seated when Jasper entered the auction venue.

There was around twenty groups of people within the hall.

Every group had around two to three members, so, coupled with the officers around the room, sixty to seventy people were currently packed into the meeting room.

The majority of people took their seats, while the most attention grabbing person was Scott.

The man sat with a high profile in the middle of the room with both arms placed over two empty chairs by his side. He also had someone pouring and offering tea as well as someone giving him massages.

Upon seeing Jasper enter the room, Scott raised his eyes lazily to glance at the man. He scoffed but did not say anything provoking.

After all, this was an auction venue and not even he dared to make a ruckus.

Not to mention that Julian was right beside Jasper, and the wound on Scott’s head had not recovered and still ached.

Scott retracted his sinister gaze once he saw Jasper sit down.

Scott took the coffee from his lackey’s hands and asked, “Did you talk to those people we asked yet?”

“Yeah. Everyone will go according to plan when the time comes,” A lackey quickly replied.

Scott nodded in satisfaction and asked, “What about that f*cker? Did you find out who he is?”

The lackey looked embarrassed and said, “Mr. Covington, we weren’t given enough time to investigate. We need more time.”

“Useless! ”

Scott glared at him and waved him off annoyedly, “You people can’t even do anything properly. Go ask the company hosting the auction later since he’s definitely registered his company if he came to participate in the auction. You’ll be able to learn about the man through them.”

The lackey’s eyes lit up and he praised, “I knew you’d have a great plan, Mr. Covington. I’m sure that’ll work”

“My life would’ve been over long ago if I had to count on you people,” Scott said with a sneer.

“The auction’s about to start so do that later. How powerful can this f*cker be anyway? Hmph, he’s got much to work on before he can beat me.”

A short moment later, the auctioneer walked up to the stage and said energetically, “Thank you for coming today. There’s only one item on the agenda today, and that’s Downstream Investment LLC!
