Life at The Top novel Chapter 1865

“You don’t have to talk to me like that. It

won’t work on me.”

Kayden said with a cold expression, “Who

in this world does not exist for profit? You

can get a group of people to go against

Wall Street for your benefit, and I can also

make other choices for my benefit. I can’t

be the bad guy just because I don’t want to

side with you. We’re all grown-ups so

there’s no need to be childish, right?”

“Benefits? Childish?”

Jasper chuckled. His unbothered eyes

suddenly turned sharp, and the smile on

his face also disappeared bit by bit.

“Kayden, if you said this while sitting in

front of me, believe it or not, I would have

punched you in the face.”

Kayden said coldly, “Jasper, I didn’t come

to quarrel with you today.”

“No? Then we have nothing to say. You

can enjoy your beautiful scenery abroad

while I enjoy the time of my life in

Somerland. Since we don’t have anything i

n common, let’s not waste each other’s time.”

After Jasper finished speaking, he hung u

p the video decisively.

Meanwhile, in the United States, Kayden

was dumbfounded.

Although he had foreseen that this

conversation would not be

straightforward easy, Kayden did not

expect Jasper to be so cruel.

This was very different from the

impression of Jasper that he had in his

mind.

Was it possible that when he had risen to

a higher position, he finally shed his

polite appearance and started to reveal his

fangs?

When he thought of this, Kayden smashed

the glass in his hand.

The secretary outside the door heard the

commotion and entered the room.

hurriedly to clean up.

However, the enchanting body of the

foreign lady that had previously won

Kayden’s heart only made him more upset

at this moment.

“Get out!”

After Kayden’s roar, the office fall back

into silence.

After calming himself, Kayden took a deep

breath and requested another video call

aggrievedly and helplessly.

It did not matter if Jasper had shown his

true self or whether he was purposely

toying with Kayden. After all, Kayden was

more inferior now so he could only choose

to suffer in silence.

Jasper was thrilled when he saw the video.

call request again.

It seemed that the father and son duo was

truly driven to desperation.

He did not even hesitate before he rejected

the call.

When Kayden saw that he was being

rejected, he was so mad he started looking

for more glasses to smash.

Kayden felt utterly humiliated and

insulted right now. He gritted his teeth

and started cursing, but in the end, he still

sent another request while brimming

with anger.

Jasper finally answered the call on the

third try.

“Don’t hang up!”

Kayden, who was scared that Jasper would

If you considered from a purely

commercial point of view, these industries were all hens that would lay golden eggs in the future.

Kayden inwardly praised his father when he saw that Jasper was moved.

Sure enough, his father was right about Jasper. He was a businessman through and through. As long as there was interest, there was nothing that could not be exchanged.

‘Jasper, no matter how good you are, my father can still see through you.’

Kayden felt proud.

Jasper was silent for four to five minutes.

Kayden did not rush him. Instead, he waited quietly for Jasper to make a decision and give him a reply.

Four to five minutes later, Jasper spoke.

“How long can Layman last?”

This question was beyond Kayden’s

expectations.

However, he replied, “This has nothing to

do with our transaction, but if you insist o

n knowing, I can tell you that the

foundations of Fongroup is deeper than

what outsiders think.”

“So, you’re saying that Layman’s crisis

and the risk of bankruptcy of small and

medium-sized banks are not enough to

affect Fongroup?” Jasper asked again.

Kayden’s face sank and he asked, “Jasper,

what do you want to say?”

“Since Fongroup won’t be affected, then

why did you come to me?”

Jasper chuckled and continued, “I’m

curious as to how deep the foundations of

Fongroup run. I have no other

characteristics, but once my curiosity is

piqued, I won’t be able to sleep if I don’t

get an answer.

“It just so happens that I’m having

insomnia during this period. So, in order t

o let me sleep peacefully, I’ve decided to

wait it out and see. I want to see how thick Fongroup’s flesh and blood are and why Layman can’t suck it dry.

“Mr. Langdon, what you said is right. You can make different choices for your own benefit, but at the same time, you have to understand that many things are already destined the moment you make your choice.

“I’m in the country and you’re abroad. I will be here to watch you rise and prosper. Then, finally, I will watch everything you own collapse, while you end up with nothing.”

After he said that, the video call ended.
