“What are you planning to do?”
Kennedy looked at Bob.
There was a sinister smile on Bob’s face when he said, “What else?
“Jasper has spent more than a billion to buy Gladness and renamed it Advent Entertainment Group. It’s obvious that he needs to spend a lot of effort doing this.
“It’s not easy to succeed in one thing, but it’s extremely easy to destroy it.
“I intend to start with Joseph White. He was in Gladness for many years and knows many secrets and scandals. We’ll ask him to reveal some of it after some time. I call this controlling public opinion.
“I’ll then ask him to poach several top-notch celebrities from Gladness. I call this pulling the carpet from underneath.”
As he said that, Bob chuckled and said, “Once these are all done, we will contact Emperor Entertainment. They won’t want to see a big entertainment company backed by the Laws rise to popularity. They’re more anxious than us. How do you think Gladness is supposed to stay in business if all the industries are against them?”
The more Mitch listened, the brighter his eyes glowed. Bob did not sleep with so many female celebrities for so many years for nothing.
At least he was clearer than anyone about the entertainment industry’s rules.
“I’ll take care of this.” Mitch offered.
“I want to trample Jasper to the ground myself!” Mitch’s expression was grim, and his eyes were exceedingly sinister.
Kennedy mused on how Jasper was almost turning into a demon residing in his son’s heart. If this issue was not resolved, his son probably would not be able to get over it.
At the thought of this, Kennedy nodded and said, “Okay, I’ll leave this to you. We’ll give you a portion of our family’s resources to support you. Also, discuss this with Uncle Bob. He’s more experienced than you and can point you in the right direction.”
Mitch nodded and said excitedly, “Got it. I’ll come to you for help if I need any pointers, Uncle Bob.”
Bob laughed. “Sure. But it’s best that we start this plan a little later. We will easily alert our enemy if we act now.”
“I understand.”
Mitch gritted his teeth and stared viciously at the magazine he had tossed to the ground, saying, “I’ll let him have fun for a few more days first.”
Bob’s eyes flashed with a deep, meaningful smile. “Before Harbor City stabilizes, it’s best that you stay put. Don’t cause a stir. We’ll defeat Jasper sooner or later!”
“Yes!”
Mitch nodded. Although he was eager to end Jasper now, Jasper was simply too reputable at the moment. With the Laws as his backer, it was impossible to get rid of him alone.
He could only wait for the perfect opportunity!
…
On the other side, Jasper was done packing up his luggage and was ready to leave Harbor City.
Many things in Mainland had been put aside because he was in Harbor City for so long. Now that everything here had been dealt with, it was time for him to hurry back.
Mainland’s industry was Jasper’s top priority after all.
After his farewell this time, it would probably be a very long time before he would return to Harbor City again.
Henry and Anna came to see him off at the airport. They had spent a considerable amount of time together during this period of time and had naturally formed a much stronger bond now.
Henry was completely awake by now. What started as a dislike for Jasper in the beginning had turned into admiration today. Jasper had become his role model.
Anna had witnessed everything that Jasper did with her own eyes. An outstanding man like him had sparked the fondness in the depths of her heart.
When they were bidding farewell at the airport, Henry said to Jasper casually, “Let’s both be pompous together the next time I go to Mainland to visit you.”
“I’m not really good at being pompous, to be honest,” Jasper said sincerely.
