“……”
Zane was rendered speechless. Nevertheless, the jealousy on his face grew much stronger and more obvious.
“Look at how glad Law is. As a young master from Harbor City, he’s truly an embarrassment. He’s so happy being someone else’s follower. He’s acting just like their assistant–he has nothing to be proud of,” Zane huffed in annoyance.
“At least he doesn’t rely on his family’s money and managed to buy himself a private jet. Do you think we have the ability to do so?” Mitch asked him.
Zane turned around to look at Mitch. “You always tell us that they are good, and we’re worthless, Mr. Langdon. Is it really that fun to do so?” He asked Mitch in distaste.
“Do you think that I want to do it?” Mitch sneered and replied, “However, it is the truth. Let’s wait it out for a few more days. Soon, he won’t have the chance to hop around freely like this anymore. What’s wrong with that?”
All of a sudden, Zane seemed to have thought of something. He lowered his voice and asked Mitch, “Mr. Langdon, how is the plan that you previously mentioned going on? If everything goes smoothly, Jasper Laine will be out of luck today, right?”
Mitch cast a wide-eyed glance at Zane and replied to him in a low voice, “This isn’t Harbor City. Jasper Laine may have eyes and ears everywhere, so you’d better be careful with your words. If Jasper hears about any of this, you and I will be in big trouble.”
Zane curled his lips in distaste. “Who does he think he is? Even if he hears about it, what can he do to me?” He said in an irritated tone.
While Zane and Mitch were talking to each other in hushed voices a short distance away, Henry patted Jasper’s arm.
“Look over there. Why are those two fools here?” Henry remarked with a curious expression on his face.
He looked like he had finally found something that piqued his interest and amused him amidst this sea of boredom.
Jasper glanced in the direction that Henry was pointing.
A slight frown formed across his face when he caught sight of Mitch Langdon and Zane Lancaster.
Neither Bob Lancaster nor Kennedy Langdon were his friends.
Although Jasper had sent them invitations out of courtesy, he did not know if they would be attending the event since they did not notify him beforehand.
Mitch and Zane were here at the event instead of Bob and Kennedy. What were they trying to do?
