Life at The Top novel Chapter 2066

“Mr. Laine, this time I came here with Homer’s greatest sincerity.”

The man in front of him was talking smoothly about some extravagant embellishments but he did not say anything substantial.

“But I don’t see your sincerity.”

Jasper turned his head to look at the moonlight outside the window, ignoring the person in front of him.

However, the man was still reluctant to give up, and once again, he put the letter of intent in front of Jasper. “I understand your concerns, Mr. Laine, but the current situation is beyond our control. Since the matter has already escalated to this point, we will prepare the greatest remedy to prevent Lane Automotive from suffering even greater losses. Of course, I also hope that you can give our company a break, Mr. Laine.”

Jasper knew that although the man in front of him was not so sincere, at least he was sent by Larry, so Jasper would have to give in no matter what now. Things had already escalated to this point, and if he remained stubborn, it would not do Lane Automotive any good.

“We can cooperate, but I can’t use this letter of intent.”

“I have already asked someone to prepare the best possible letter of intent and contract. If your company agrees, we can proceed immediately.” After saying that, Jasper put the contract and the letter of intent on the table.

The man rushed to the desk in front of Jasper and picked up the contract and the letter of intent before standing in place whilst reading it carefully.

“Mr. Laine, there isn’t any major problem, but perhaps you misunderstood us. We will definitely withdraw the complaint against Lane Automotive and make up for the damage to Lane Automotive, but isn’t it too much to ask us to give up our shares if we want to collaborate with you?”

Jasper saw that the person in front of him was already furious. Thus, he gave him a half-smile and continued to ignore him.

“If you think it’s too much, then let’s not cooperate.” Jasper’s words were calm and flat, throwing the man in front of him completely off guard.

He did not expect Jasper to say this so calmly. Now he also fully understood why Jax was forced into that state.

***

“What are you doing? Stay away from me!” Jax’s face was full of surprise and fear.

He kept backing up, but there was a dead-end behind him, and soon, he had nowhere to go.

“Jax, don’t you know what are the consequences of betraying Mr. Weis? Where did you get the courage to do that? Listen, Mr. Weis is very angry and the consequences are severe right now.”

When Jax heard Larry’s name, his legs turned weak. He did not expect Larry to find him so quickly.

“Sirs, please have mercy. I really didn’t want to betray Mr. Weis, I have my own hardships and no one wants to see the current situation either!”

The few men had evil grins on their faces.

“I’m really sorry, but we were also entrusted to do this. If you continue to stand here safe and sound, it will affect Mr. Weis’s next plan, so we can’t keep you around.”

Jax was even more frightened by this, and his legs began to shake violently. He was leaning against the wall behind him and his face was pale. At the same time, his lips were trembling and he could not speak.

“You coward!”

A different voice came from the alley.

It was as if a light was shining on Jax.
