Life at The Top novel Chapter 490

At the entrance of Warsaw Community, two cars slowly pulled over on the side of the road.

Sitting in the second car, Ian glanced calmly at a few cars that were parked not far away.

These cars had uniform sequential number plates, and each car was heavily guarded by several well-trained and serious-looking men.

Norman, who was sitting next to Ian, frowned slightly. He said solemnly, “Now that’s a tiger’s lair!

“What is Jasper trying to do? Why did he ask you to come to such a strange place?”

Ian said with a sullen expression, “I don’t know, but I have a feeling that something really bad is about to happen.”

Norman sneered and said, “What? You think he’s going to kill us? He won’t do that unless he wants to kill himself.”

Ian said flatly, “I don’t think he will. No matter how fierce competitions get in business, there’s always a rule. Even if we are openly trying to give him trouble, we will eventually find ways to solve it using business solutions. The same goes for him if he wants to give us trouble.”

Norman said with a frown, “But from the look of this place as well as the men in the cars, I don’t think he’s going to play by the rules. I think I should lead the bodyguards in front and go up with you.”

Ian shook his head and said, “No, that will only cause us to sink lower. Since he wants me to arrive within half an hour, I’ll go up and see what kind of tricks he’s trying to pull.

“Okay then. I’ll wait for you here. Give me a call if something happens and I’ll lead our men upstairs. I don’t think Jasper is that bold,” Norman said.

Ian was just about to get out of the car when he thought of something and dialed a number after taking out his phone.

However, the cold and consistent voice of the operator made Ian frown.

“Still can’t get in touch with Benny?” Norman asked, knowing who Ian was calling.

Ian nodded with a sullen expression and then suppressed the unease in his heart. He said, “Not just him, but even Hans isn’t picking up his phone. It’s like the two of them have disappeared.”

Norman said with a smile, “You still don’t understand Hans’ character, do you? They must have gone somewhere to party and have fun. They’re probably still lying on top of women right now.”

Ian snorted, saying, “They’re uncle and nephew too—how ridiculous!”

Having said that, Ian pushed the door open and walked toward Warsaw Community.

As soon as Ian appeared, he immediately attracted the attention of the bodyguards Jasper had brought.

They knew the situation well. One of the bodyguards walked up to Ian and said with a faint smile on his face, “Mr. Ian, Mr. Laine wants us to show you the way when you arrive.”

“I’d like to see what sort of tricks you’re trying to pull this time,” Ian sneered and followed the bodyguards into the community.

Ordinary communities built before the 2000s were not equipped with elevators, so Ian followed the bodyguards up the stairs.

When they arrived on the second floor, Ian heard a shrill cry coming from upstairs.

The cries sounded extremely distinct because they came straight from the top of Ian’s head on the third floor.
