Damond shot a warning glare at Jasper before adding, “I won’t mind fighting an international lawsuit for two billion US dollars.”
“Don’t worry, President Golding.”
Jasper carefully tucked away his copy of the agreement and smiled as he said, “If you win, I won’t be a sore loser.”
“Hopefully.”
When Damond finished speaking, he stood and stared deep into Jasper’s eyes. ‘Such arrogance! You will pay for your words and actions. Your technology is so backward there’s no way you’ll be able to decipher and upgrade my technology within three months!’
“I’m looking forward to the day you wire two billion US dollars into my account.”
Then, Damond turned and left.
Jasper remained seated and waited until Damond had left for his office before standing up.
When he walked to the door and saw Julian, who was waiting for him, Jasper immediately took Julian to a nearby burger joint.
The food in Coreana was disgusting.
While they ate, Jasper shared what had happened during the meeting earlier like how one would share anecdotes.
Julian was a martial artist who was not sensitive to the mutual deception going on in the business industry. However, he was extremely displeased that Damond had looked down on his country.
“If I ever meet anyone like that, I’ll make sure they get firsthand experience of the beauty of Somerland’s martial arts!” Julian huffed.
Smiling, Jasper sipped on his tea and said, “It’s the same concept of them needing to drink seafood broth first thing in the morning while we drink tea instead. Everyone has their traditions and culture, but it doesn’t matter if you drink seafood broth or tea, you shouldn’t look down on anyone else.
“I have my ways of teaching such people a lesson so memorable they’ll shudder every time they hear the word ‘Somer’ in the future.
