Life at the Top Chapter 339

Erik turned to look at Jim as he lay on the hospital bed, his eyes twitching wildly.

He took a deep breath and said, “An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth? Why don’t you ask someone to
beat me up then?”

“That’s a good idea,” Henry said with a grin, “I meant to hire someone to put you in a sack and then
soak you in the sea for a few hours to cool you down, but someone refuses to let me do it.”

As he said that, Henry shrugged, looking as if it was a shame.

Erik gritted his teeth with a sullen expression. He had never seen anyone so arrogant, telling to his face
that they planned to soak him in the sea?

This was simply a humiliation to Erik!

He looked up at Jasper, knowing that he was the person who would ultimately decide his fate.

Jasper, however, turned to Jim and asked, “Uncle Jim, what do you plan to do? If you want to return the
punches then just say the word and I’ll get it done immediately.”

Erik gritted his teeth. He could tell that Jasper was serious about it. As long as Jim nodded, then he
would not be able to escape the brutal beating he would get today.

Jim was lying on the hospital bed, feeling a little flattered.

He did not expect himself to one day have the power to decide Erik’s life and death.

It might sound a little exaggerated to say life and death, but the brutal beating he had suffered was
enough to leave anyone’s life hanging by a thread.

He did not expect an insignificant figure like him to one day experience this high point in life.



For some reason, Jim had a sudden realization that nothing in this world was constant.

After thinking for a while, Jim smiled at Jasper and said, “Forget it, Jasper.”

Jasper raised his eyebrows slightly. When he was about to speak, Jim spoke again.

“Jasper, this is what I really think. If revenge breeds revenge, will there ever be an end to it? That
doesn’t mean anything. It’s only natural for us to retaliate after we’re bullied, but we can always adopt
other means.

“After all, harmony is the most important thing in the business field. I’ll let you decide the specifics of
what you want to do. I don’t have an opinion on this.”

Jasper nodded when he heard what Jim said.

On the one hand, Jim had considerations about his company in Swallow Capital. This was a small
piece of land. If he pressed Erik’s face to the ground and bashed him up, he would feel great about it
but it would be difficult for him to guarantee his safety in the future.

What was more, even if he was not afraid, what about his wife and kids?

This was the most practical consideration for a middle-aged man who had experienced the harsh
reality of society.

On the other hand, Jim might also have other reasons for not offending the Turners too much.

Jasper understood Jim’s goodwill.

Erik breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what Jim said.

He could not help but look at Jim again. Well, he was not exactly grateful, though. Jim was already
lucky enough not to be squashed to death by a prodigal son like Erik.



Jim’s words had put out the thought in Erik’s mind about striking him, though.

Jim was, after all, the most insignificant character in this ward—one that was beneath Erik’s
consideration.

“Five million,” Jasper said.

Erik looked up at Jasper incredulously.

This huge affair could be solved with only five million?

Erik did not know if he should laugh at Jasper for being an idiot or if he was simply too lucky.

“Five million for the medical expenses. This is the compensation for Uncle Jim,” Jasper said flatly,
seemingly seeing through Erik’s thoughts.

Erik gritted his teeth. The joy that had just surged through his heart was gone without a trace.

The medical expenses alone were five million bucks? He was simply demanding an exorbitant amount.

Erik could not care less about this bit of money, though. He simply wanted to solve the problem now.
As for the rest, he would think about it next time.

Therefore, Erik nodded immediately and agreed.
