Life at The Top novel Chapter 677

Marcus strutted into the room arrogantly with a heavily tanned man next to him who was named Ned.

The two entered the room and their eyes immediately fell on Jasper.

Seeing how calm Jasper looked while sitting, Marcus snickered and walked over to him. Marcus raised his hand to knock on the table before Jasper as he spoke, “I heard that you paid a big amount just to have this bidding meeting here with me, Mr. Laine? Is there even a point to this?

“If I want you to have it, it’ll easily be yours. But if I don’t want you to have it, you can spend as much money as you want and all you’ll be getting is trash.”

Jasper looked at Marcus and spoke, “Oh? Now I’m curious how exactly you consider 1,500 acres of land trash, Mr. Coine.”

Ned scoffed beside him. “Are you actually stupid or are you just pretending to be stupid, outsider?”

“Without Mr. Coine giving the red light, it doesn’t matter if you’ve bought it or not. There’ll be people troubling you every day and you’ll have no other choice but to leave it empty in the end.”

“Oh right, let me introduce myself. I’m Ned, the owner of Ned’s Pawn Shop. If you think that you can’t take it anymore and want to pawn the land off, I promise I’ll give you a good price. Haha.”

Ned was tall and broad, and his loud laughs resonated around the room deafeningly.

Jasper furrowed his brows slightly. “Could you laugh softer? You’re a little noisy.”

Ned glared at Jasper fiercely. “Did you just say that I’m noisy? Do you want to die?”

At that moment, Julian, who had been standing behind Jasper all this while, stepped forward. From his stance, it was evident that he would forcefully hold down the 190cm-tall Ned if he even showed a sign of starting a fight.
