On the other side, Beckett handed the flight tickets to Jax. These were not just Jax’s tickets, they included tickets for his family members as well.
Beckett held the USB drive in his hand and said with a cold expression, “Everyone is just taking what they need. You give me evidence of Larry’s embezzlement and I will provide you with cash and guarantee your safety. Okay, no more nonsense, Mr. Laine has prepared plane tickets for you to go abroad, and you have to leave as soon as possible. When you get there, there will be people ready to receive you. We’ve also arranged temporary accommodation for you. That’s all Mr. Laine can do for you.”
After Jax thanked Beckett, he quickly left.

“F*ck!”
Inside the office, Larry pushed everything on the desk to the floor and looked at the secretary in front of him angrily.
“How could you let that punk Jax escape? Are you all a bunch of fucking trash?!”
The secretary was shivering, and she did not dare to breathe too loudly. After all, they had indeed screwed up this matter since they failed to keep an eye on Jax and he had now escaped.
“Mr. Weis, this came as a result of our negligence, and we will accept the penalty.”
“What‘s the f*cking use of punishing you?!”
Larry had realized his current situation. If he did not apologize, he would lose everything. After all, the USB drive that Lane Automotive played to him today held too many secrets… Now that things had gotten to this stage, even if he would not have a life and death struggle like Jax, it did not mean he would just lay down quietly and die.
“Mr. Weis, if it really doesn’t work, let’s apologize and let this matter rest first. We can’t let them hold this against us anymore,” the secretary said at one side.
Larry did not speak. He figured this might be the best way out for him now.
“Hold a press conference to clear this matter. I don’t want it to affect me again.”
The secretary nodded quickly and turned around to prepare for the press conference. Soon, news of the press conference was spread to various media outlets, and everyone within the company and the outside world learned about it.
Jasper naturally heard this too. He sat in the office and nodded. Sure enough, Larry chose to retreat.
At the press conference, the secretary next to Larry on stage gave a detailed exposition of the whole affair and apologized to Lane Automotive. Her attitude was not sincere, but she was loud.
Only Jasper knew how profitable the auto industry would be in the future.
In a few years, millions or even tens of millions of luxury cars would appear on the market, and the profits from the industry would be unimaginable. He had planned out the future of Lane Automotive and he wanted the company to become bigger and stronger. He wanted to build Lane Automotive Factory into a real leader of domestic auto brands and to establish his own industry kingdom too. The physical stores and the Internet industry would go hand in hand to challenge the world’s true oligarchic financial group!
At this moment, Jasper’s phone rang. It was Dean.
Jasper frowned when he recalled what Gale told him before he passed.
“Mr. Laine, where are you now?”
