Life at The Top novel Chapter 774

Jasper chuckled but neither agreed nor disagreed with the statement.

Capitalists were like vampires when it came to earning profits. They could shift from being an enemy to a friend for the sake of making a buck, but they were also just as likely to shift from a friend to become an enemy in the future.

That was why Jasper had kept Colossal Investments at a very specific distance from himself.

Not too far, but not too close either. Not too friendly, but also not too cold.

Essentially, they were both just using each other.

Their relationship was currently in its honeymoon phase, and Jasper wanted to make William’s life difficult during this period. However, he made sure not to go too far.

“You’re very right, but I do think that Colossal Investments should also reconsider whether some people are suited for their positions within the company or not. Mr. William, for example, should truly be reconsidered, considering our partnership almost ended because of him.”

Jasper’s words had the Vice President deep in thought as he repeatedly looked over at William.

William’s eyes grew red in infuriation. He did not expect Jasper to bring up past incidents during such an event and rat on him in front of the investment company’s senior executives.

Seeing how the situation was turning against him, William let go of all his inhibitions and fought back.

“What’s the point of saying all this, Jasper? You can say what you want, but it won’t change the fact that Celine has taken the blame for you. Do you really think that Sena would be getting listed so easily if not for Celine?”

Jasper replied indifferently, “I think you forgot something very important here. The only reason I came to Colossal was because of my connections with Celine. I believed that both her business prowess and other strengths could help Sena go public as quickly as possible.

“That’s why I came to Colossal. Not because of how powerful Colossal was, but because Celine was in Colossal. I could’ve gone for Merlene or Layman if all I needed was a company that could sell Sena’s shares and help Sena go public on the Nasdaq.”

William scoffed. WIping the cake off his face, he did not hold back at all. “Stop making it sound so professional. Nobody knows if you and Celine have had any secret deals behind our backs.”
