“Do you have a better plan?” Gerald looked at Emmet icily, “Do you plan to fight Jasper head on, or send Scott away?”
Emmett stammered but did not say anything for a long time.
Gerald sighed deeply and said, “Go prepare the car. At least the Duke of the Northwest and I have some history.”
“Instead of looking for anyone else, the Marquis came to ask our help on his trip to pay his ancestors respect in Tefa City. This means that there’s still a level of closeness to our relationship. We have no one else to turn to but the Marquis right now.”
Emmett’s eyes lit up and he replied excitedly, “Dad, are you planning to have the Marquis attack Jasper? We’d have nothing to worry about if that’s the case! We might not win against Jasper, but he’s trash in comparison to the Marquis. The Marquis would be able to get rid of him easily.”
The Covington family seemed to have completely given up on negotiating with Jasper over the following few days.
They began to fight back strongly against JW’s subsidiaries and Schuler Supermarkets’ coordinated attacks.
One had to admit that the Covington family certainly exercised a degree of power and skill as the wealthiest family in Tefa City.
However, JW Company was no longer the weak and cautious company that was too afraid to offend others anymore. In fact, a huge number of people in many industries had to make sure not to anger JW Company.
Not to mention that this fight occurred within the Southeast Province.
To quote a formidable and high status person in Southeast Province, “JW has already made a name for itself.”
The Covington family’s defense appeared strong, but everyone knew that defeat was only a matter of time. However, both attacking and defending parties had to pay a price whenever there were these business wars. JW Company had used up quite a lot of money during the past few days as well.
Not that Jasper cared.
Ignoring the benefits Jasper would earn once the Covington family was destroyed, the benefits brought by the financial license from Downstream Investment Company alone could replenish ten to twenty times the value of the money lost.
Not to mention that getting rid of the Covington family was a must if he wanted Downstream Investment Company to develop well in Tefa City. These were prices he had to pay.
