Life at The Top novel Chapter 622

“Haha. If you’re busy, Mr. Monty, then I shall leave you to it.”

Guilty, Colin did not dare to stay for too long and hastily told Conrad.

Conrad grabbed Colin’s hand intimately and spoke, “Then I shall trouble you with this, Mr. Walter.”

Colin bid him farewell and got into his car.

From the rearview mirror, Colin watched Benjamin speak to Conrad nervously and sighed.

Today might just be the last day Conrad treats him respectfully.

It would be a miracle if Conrad does not kill him the next time they meet.

In addition to the fear swirling in Colin’s chest, there was an inexplicable sense of pride as well.

Naturally, he knew of the situation that Benjamin just reported.

‘Benjamin’s a skilled man himself and he has precisely caught Jasper’s goal. It was a shame… that Conrad would never expect me to turn against him.

‘He probably won’t care about Jasper’s move, would he?’

Colin suddenly exhaled a long sigh. ‘Jasper’s terrifying. This was a simple plan, to have me pretend to agree to whatever Conrad requests. I’m essentially brewing a cup of poison and making Conrad drink it willingly.’

Hearing Colin fish, the driver asked curiously, “Why are you sighing, Mr. Walter?”

Colin replied calmly, “Change is coming to the Southeast Province.”

…

“So what?”

Conrad heard Benjamin’s report in the study and turned on his computer. It had already been half an hour since the afternoon market reopened.

The shares limit down had been opened but the share prices did not plummet. As if someone was trying to control the market and not let the share prices drop.

“Victory is already ours.”

Conrad was in a great mood as he thought about his agreement with Colin today and smiled. “We have 45% of the shares at hand, and with the Southeast Province Mining Co., Ltd on our side, Jasper can do whatever he wants and he’ll only have 20% of the total shares. What’s he going to do then?”

Scoffing, Conrad spoke, “This is merely his last crazed attempt.”

Benjamin was stunned and he asked instinctively, “Mr. Monty, so we’ll ignore him, then?”

Conrad laughed aloud and spoke, “He wants to buy shares, doesn’t he? Then let him. Instead of fighting for it, we’ll sell the 5% we bought with high prices over the past few days.”

“This 5% of shares had cost me more than a billion unnecessarily. Now we’ll make Jasper give me all that money back. I wonder how angry he’d look when he finds out.”

Benjamin’s eyes shone and he spoke, “I understand, sir.”

Watching Benjamin leave in a rush, Conrad realized that he liked this employee of his a lot. Ignoring everything else, this man’s sense of responsibility was a very rare trait.

Planning to promote Benjamin, Conrad walked over to the window to stare at the beautiful spring scenery. His emotions had also truly relaxed since all of this started.

…

“That’s a lot of transactions.”

Henry suddenly shouted at the computer monitor. The man sat in the study with a straw in his mouth as he drank his bottle of coca-cola.
