Roy’s expression paled when he heard this.
Standing beside him, Gerry immediately understood that Jasper’s words were actually directed at
himself. After all, he had been in working in the industry for a long time.
His expression changed and Gerry smiled wryly at Jasper. “Mr. Laine, this restaurant has quite a few
shareholders and Roy is one of them. I may hold more shares than him, but it wouldn’t be right to just
fire him.”
“Hmm. You’re right. There’s no such thing as firing a shareholder.” Jasper nodded understandingly.
Roy let out an internal sigh of relief when he heard Jasper’s reply. At the same time, he also lost a bit of
respect for the man. ‘Looks like Mr. Laine isn’t all that great. His identity’s just slightly more formidable,
but not unimaginably so.’
‘See? Isn’t Jasper also admitting that there’s nothing he can do?’
‘I’ll just need to treat him to a meal after this to apologize. Then, we can all move on from this.’
With that thought, Roy could not help but feel gleeful again.
He looked at Tiffany secretly and his chest burned with desire.
‘Turns out, this Mr. Laine isn’t even that powerful. I’ll give him room to back off then I’ll secretly make
this woman mine. There’s nothing he can possibly do anyway once I’ve had a taste of her.’
Roy felt extremely excited when he thought of that, and he felt the urge to pull Tiffany into his arms.
Yet, he did not know that Jasper was aware of every minute change in his expression and gaze.
Scoffing, Jasper said, “Since you can’t fire a shareholder, then you’ll just have to close the restaurant
down.”
Roy was stunned when he heard Jasper as he looked at the man confusedly. He wondered if he had
imagined the man’s words.
Gerry’s expression turned disgruntled, but he could not refute Jasper.
“Aren’t you going too far, Mr. Laine?” Roy grit his teeth and asked.
“A good number of shareholders invested a total of tens of millions to open this restaurant. What right
do you have to close it down just like that?”
“The fact that I own the lot your restaurant currently rents,” Jasper replied calmly.
“No way!” Roy was in disbelief.
“F*cking dumb *ss!” Gerry glared at Roy and scolded, “Forget this shop lot, more than half of Gold
Pedestrian Street is Mr. Laine’s property. Who the f*ck do you think you are? Do you know what trouble
you’re getting yourself into?”
Jasper ignored the scolding Gerry was giving Roy and continued, “I’ll pass along my instructions later,
after which, the JW Real Estate staff in charge of Gold Pedestrian Street’s property will come and
terminate the contract with you.”
“We’re not leasing this lot to you anymore, so please close your doors and move out within three days.”
Roy was stricken and he stood dumbly in place. He shouted raspily, “No, no way! We signed a
contract!”
Jasper looked at Roy’s desperate expression and answered calmly, “Everything will be in accordance
with the contract. I’ll just pay you the compensation for breaching it.”
“No, no. Don’t!” Gerry was terrified. He did not dare to take this money from Jasper. “We’ll close the
restaurant immediately. There’s no need to bring up the compensation fee at all, Mr. Laine. I’ll talk to
the other shareholders, we can’t possibly take that compensation from you.”
“We’re at fault for this, and I promise that we’ll give you a satisfactory response.”
Gerry glared darkly at Roy as he said this. It was evident that Roy would have to come up with
compensation for the shareholder’s losses.
Roy understood what Gerry had in mind and he shuddered. Fear engulfed him.
He was just a businessman with a bit of extra money. There was no comparing him with Gerry and the
others. He would go bankrupt in the blink of an eye if he had to compensate them for their losses!
At that thought, Roy exclaimed in terror, “Mr. Laine! Please forgive me, I’m really sorry!”
