Life at the Top Chapter 683

Mr. Powers did not know what the two fleeing real estate owners were thinking.

All he knew was that his mind was currently blown.

Mr. Powers had not expected Marcus to actually act so well according to Jasper’s plan.

The plot of land had a starting bid of 100 to 200 million and Mr. Powers believed that it would only
come to a maximum of 300 to 400 million.

Mr. Powers had no qualms with that, for it aligned with the city government’s desire to oppress Marcus.

Yet… Jasper had just taken 950 million from Marcus in one go!

“We’re very well aware of Fortune Co., Ltd’s financial situation, Mr. Laine. The entire company is worth
around one billion only, and with how much he has to pay this time… I’m afraid it would only cause you
trouble.”

Mr. Powers’ words were extremely subtle.

Jasper smiled and replied calmly, “There’s no way I can invest in anything with Marcus still in the
picture. Plus, the city government wants to get rid of Marcus too, correct? I believe the city
government’s and my interests align on this topic. I’m sure that you wouldn’t want someone to slander
the reputation of Reed City either, right?”

With that, Jasper then clapped Mr. Powers on the shoulder. “I understand that there are many things
the city government is not in the position to do, so I’ll do them for you instead. All I hope is that the city
government is able to provide me support during necessary times.”

Mr. Powers replied sternly, “I’ll make sure to relay your message word for word, Mr. Laine.”



Jasper politely bade Mr. Powers farewell and called out to Julian before he exited the meeting room
while stretching.

Mr. Powers had a grim expression on his face as he watched Jasper vanish at the exit.

Just then, Chad walked over and whispered to Mr. Powers, “What should we do about this, Mr.
Powers?”

“What else can we do? The only option is to report this to the higher-ups and let them decide what to
do next. The situation has gone beyond what we can control.” Mr. Powers sighed.

…

“He dealt with the most complicated problem with the simplest method. What an interesting young
man.”

A middle-aged man sat in the spacious and solemn office. There were two flags on this office table,
ones that ordinary office desks were not allowed to have.

Mr. Powers stood respectfully before the table as he reported the details of the bid this morning.

He also relayed Jasper’s message without missing a detail to that middle-aged man.

After a moment of thought, the middle-aged man waved his hand. “I still have a meeting later. You’ll be
in charge of overlooking the development of this situation. Essentially, you are to make our stance on
the matter clear.

“Do not say what you do not have to and remain impartial. But you must do your part well.”

With that, Mr. Powers bade farewell and left the room while deep in thought.

…



In Reed City’s best people’s hospital, the Special Care Unit.

Ned lay on the hospital bed, his face sickly pale. He had just got out of surgery and was enduring the
pain now that the anesthesia had worn off.

“The patient’s arm has suffered a comminuted fracture. We’ve already done our best to repair it, but
there will be lifelong complications with his right hand. He’ll be able to use it as normal, but it will no
longer be able to exert extreme force or participate in strenuous activity.”

The doctor looked at the group of people who had sinister and bloodthirsty expressions on their faces.
He was too nervous to take a bigger breath.

“You piece of trash! Your entire family is made out of f*cking trash!” roared a man who looked a lot like
Ned.

“Enough. They’ve already told us this, so we’ll get the same answer no matter where we go. At least
his right hand isn’t completely crippled. That’s good enough, isn’t it?”

Len spoke expressionlessly.

“Thank you, doctor. Could you please leave us alone?”

Len’s peaceful attitude had the doctor let out a sigh of relief and he quickly excused himself.

After the doctor left, Len then grimly turned to look at Marcus who had been silent the entire time. “Talk,
Marcus. Tell me what happened.”

Marcus then proceeded to relay the incident, albeit not without exaggeration on some parts.

In the hospital room, both Marcus’s and Ned’s fathers, Len and Fletcher, darkened their expressions.



“That’s essentially what happened, Dad, Uncle Adkins.”

“That Jasper Laine! He has no respect for Ned and me just because he’s rich. We didn’t even say
anything and he immediately started yelling about a fight!

“This bid was supposed to be a fair competition, but who’d have thought that the b*stard had bribed
Chad? Even Mr. Powers favored him too. Ned and I got roped into a trap he had set up and we ended
up losing 950 million. There’s no way we’ll accept this outcome!”

After Marcus’ explanation, the situation now turned into a case of Jasper oppressing them and
disrespecting the local families. Jasper had apparently also set up a malicious trap and caused Marcus
to lose 950 million.

After Marcus was done, the hospital room fell silent.

After a long while, Len then glared at Marcus. “Do you think that just because we’re old we don’t know
how you youngsters normally act? We only choose to let you act as you wish outside, but that doesn’t
mean we’re blind to the kind of people you are.

“The part of it being a trap is true. But from what I can see, you provoked him first, didn’t you?”

Len’s words had Marcus flushing in embarrassment. He spoke up indignantly, “But it’s true that he
broke Ned’s hand! He also bribed Chad to make me lose 950 million.”

“Hmph!” Len harrumphed coldly and spoke, “I told you guys not to provoke others as you wished, didn’t
I? What about now, then? Do you finally understand how strong outsiders can be?”

“What do you want to do about this, Fletcher?” Len looked at the other man who was furious.
