Erik was eager to end Jasper’s life right now.
He was clearly at an advantage every time he came to Jasper. He would try to mock Jasper and then admire the exasperated look on his face so the man would regret going against him.
Toward the end, however, he would always be the one who ends up suffering a crushing defeat.
He had indeed gotten an exasperated reaction out of someone, but that someone was him instead!
He had been warned by the elders in the family today because of the unusual jump in Motley Media’s stocks.
If news that Jasper had acquired Motley Media’s stocks from these brokers spread out…
His family would no doubt be skeptical of his ability to continue leading Motley Media.
Erik never would have expected Jasper to act so quickly and decisively, going straight to the brokers to acquire stocks.
One must know that those brokers were blood-sucking vampires who would ask for more than 10% or 20% premium or they would not sell their stocks.
However, facts had proven that Jasper did buy them!
“Are you crazy? Do you have too much money with nowhere to spend?! Why are you spending several hundred million dollars to acquire Motley Media’s stocks just to hammer the market?! Is it really necessary to cause destruction for the both of us in which you’ll have to suffer heavy losses as well?”
Erik stared ferociously at Jasper and raged.
Jasper smiled and said slowly, “Is several hundred million dollars a lot? Will the young master of the Turner family even care about the loss of hundreds of millions? Well, I certainly don’t. There are always ways to earn money, but not many opportunities to watch the fascinating expressions on Young Master Turner’s face.”
Erik gasped, feeling a malicious fire surging from the pit of his stomach. It made him feel so uncomfortable that it was like he was being pricked by needles.
