Life at The Top novel Chapter 906

Slam!

Conrad slammed the table and stood up.

“Like I said before, Jasper, you’ll lose to me one day. And something tells me that that day will come very soon.

“You think that by stopping us from leaving we won’t be able to control the market and Sena’s shares will be saved? You’re too simple-minded if that’s the case!

“I’ve never once planned to crush Sena’s share price by myself. All I needed to do is act as a catalyst, one that would trigger the market’s masses to destroy Sena. Don’t forget, you have so many enemies waiting to see your downfall.

“Let me be frank with you, Jasper. Even if you make us stay here, you still won’t be able to change what’s going to happen.

“There’s still ten minutes before the Nasdaq starts trading. If you applied for a trading halt yesterday, then fine, there’s nothing I can do. But since you applied for special procedures, then don’t blame me for what’s going to happen next.

“Your other enemies and the market’s combined power will help me achieve everything I want to do!

“All I needed to do is plant a fuse. Nothing I did mattered after that because the fuse had already been lit. Today will mark the beginning of the explosion in Sena caused that I ignited!”

Jasper remained expressionless in the face of Conrad’s hysteria as he merely rapped his fingers against the table.

Knock knock.

Two clear sounds cut through the air.

The door that had remained dormant despite the chaos Conrad and Henry had caused was suddenly pushed open.

It was Orson.

Orson kept his head down cautiously for he did not dare look at anyone in the room. Facing Jasper, he asked courteously, “How can I help you, Mr. Laine?”

“Could you bring me a laptop, Mr. Reese? I’ll need to connect to the internet as well if that’s alright?” Jasper asked gently.
