Lisa’s expression darkened when she saw the papers in Jasper’s hands.
She knew that Jasper had found a weakness and without a reasonable explanation, Jasper would
surely blow the issue up. She would be put in a difficult position then.
“I don’t know,” Lisa turned her head away and replied unnaturally, “Why would I know what he has on
him.
Dudley wiped the blood from the corner of his lips and scoffed. Yet he did not say a word.
It was evident that the two planned to leave the matter alone by denying and remaining silent.
Jasper looked at the two and spoke, “So you’re not going to admit it? Alright, then.”
Jasper then turned to look at the receptionist who was still dazed and frightened. He spoke, “Could you
please call Mr. Gardner?”
“Huh?” The receptionist looked at Jasper blankly. Her brain had yet to catch up to what was happening.
“Tell him that if he doesn’t come over and deal with this as fast as he can, then I’ll sue his daughter on
grounds of stealing trade secrets.”
Lisa jumped up like a cat who had her tail stepped on. “What nonsense is that, Jasper?!
“You have to take responsibility for your words! You can’t just accuse me of stealing trade secrets
without evidence! You really think you’re on top of the world?”
“We’ll know if we investigated,” Jasper spoke calmly.
With that, Jasper turned to look at the receptionist. The latter did not dare to anger Jasper so she
immediately found Norman’s number and called him.
At the same time, Lisa was also cueing Dudley with her gaze, urging him to do something.
Dudley’s expression was sour.
Lisa was the one who handed him the documents. Dudley knew that his Teo Chamber of Commerce
was planning to attack Haddock’s Chamber from its Waterhoof City branch and he wanted to make a
huge contribution. He had not expected to be caught red-handed at the very last moment.
The matter could potentially be blown into something huge, depending on whether people wanted to
investigate it or not.
With the way Jasper acted, it was unlikely he would let the matter go.
Dudley’s eyes darted around and his expression kept changing.
“The asset forum conference held by the Teo Chamber of Commerce to attack the Haddock Chamber
is about to commence. Yet the daughter of Haddock’s Chamber of Commerce’s President brought a
businessperson from Teo into the Waterhoof City branch station to steal all of Haddock’s core future
plans.”
“What do you think will happen if word gets out? Do you think your father, as President of the Chamber,
would praise you for being understanding or hang you up and scold you for being a failure?”
Dudley’s expression darkened extremely at Jasper’s words.
“What do you want?” Dudley asked, clenching his teeth and ignoring the pain on his lips.
“Simple. Tell me what transaction you two made and I’ll let you go immediately. I also won’t hold you
accountable,” Jasper replied calmly.
Dudley’s eyes flickered and asked, “Really?”
“I have no reason to lie to you,” Jasper replied.
Lisa immediately spoke, seeing how Dudley was persuaded to tell, “Mr. Ball! Don’t fall for this crafty
and vile man’s lies! Who knows what bad intentions he’s got in mind!”
Jasper replied calmly, “I’m sure you can tell who’s more trustworthy. Me, or a woman who’s willing to
betray her Chamber of Commerce father just for her own interests.”
That sentence worked better than any vow and Dudley immediately decided.
“Lisa and I are just acquainted, we aren’t especially close. She contacted me a few days ago and told
me she could hand me a document your Chamber of Commerce has prepared for the asset forum
conference later.”
“The only request she had was for me to humiliate you harshly at the conference.”
“I thought that since we’re going to have to deal with whoever Haddock’s Chamber sends over, I’d be
gaining important internal intel without having to do more than I originally have to. So I agreed.”
Dudley completely sold Lisa out once he opened his mouth.
“Dudley! Are you even a f*cking man? Jasper just gave you a slight shock and you’re already admitting
everything! You’ve got no balls, you coward!” Lisa shrieked in mortification.
Dudley glanced at Lisa icily. He clenched his jaw quietly and turned to ask Jasper, “Can I leave now?”
Jasper waved his hand and replied with a crescent-eyed smile, “If you wish.”
Despite getting Jasper’s approval, Dudley did not leave straight away. Instead, he looked at the
document in Jasper’s hands hesitantly.
Jasper smiled before he ripped the papers in front of Dudley in half and spoke, “Does this soothe your
worries?”
Dudley let out a long breath and wiped off the blood from the corner of his mouth. He spoke grimly, “At
least you’re a man of your word. But this isn’t over, just you wait!”
There was no way people like Dudley would leave the matter alone after losing so horribly to Jasper
once. The man had thought of countless ways to kill Jasper in his mind and he turned to leave after he
said his piece.
Julian looked at Jasper as if to ask whether he should follow after the man.
Jasper shook his head and replied, “Let him go. This is just a small matter, there’s nothing we can do
even if we catch him red-handed. It’s not something we can bring up, so it won’t affect the outcome of
the situation.”
Jasper then turned to Lisa and asked calmly, “Is there anything you’d like to say?”
Lisa stared at Jasper icily and sneered. “Don’t look so proud, Jasper. You’re a dead man walking.”
“Is that so? Then please wait with me for your dad to come and deal with this.”
Jasper shrugged and turn to the receptionist. “Excuse me, but has the call connected?”
The receptionist stuttered in fear, “It-it’s connected. Mr. Gardner said, said he’ll be here shortly.”
“Alright. Could you also help me contact the other council people? Tell them to arrive in half an hour,
I’m holding a meeting.”
“One last thing, could you bring me to your most commonly used meeting room please?”
The receptionist nodded vigorously and did not dare to say anything. She glanced at Jasper secretly
through her peripheral vision and thought to herself. How this young, handsome, and wealthy man was
not only respectful and dignified but also friendly.
Her cheeks flushed the more she thought about it.
“Hello? Could you lead the way, please?”
Jasper’s voice had shocked her out of her delusions and she frantically replied in acknowledgment.
She quickly led the way, sighing as she walked. ‘What am I thinking? This isn’t a man I can dream
about…
‘But he’s so charming!’
