This slap was both without warning and extremely forceful.
Vita had spent his life climbing up the social ladder and he had never experienced such humiliation.
Caught off guard, this slap almost had him dazed.
Vita glared at the man with extreme levels of anger. Ignoring the burning pain on his cheek, the anger
was more driven by the unjust and indignance he felt.
“What are you looking at me like that for? Be grateful that you’re still useful, otherwise beating you to
death would be too light a punishment!”
The man looked at Vita and scoffed, “You think you’re some powerful person just because you’re some
bullsh*t vice president of a bank? People like you aren’t even qualified to hold the crown prince’s
shoes!”
“Think carefully and don’t be stupid. Make the correct decision, or even death might end up being a
luxury for you.”
“The crown prince doesn’t have much patience. He’s already being exceptionally lenient with you. You
better give us a reply tomorrow. Don’t forget.”
The man then patted Vita’s reddened cheek and laughed arrogantly before he opened the car door and
left.
Vita clenched his jaw as he stared at the extremely insolent man’s back. The man got out of his car
bossily and left in the car he first arrived in. From start to finish, all of Vita ’s anger and indignance
could only be vented through his balled fists.
He punched the steering wheel and roared. Both his hands grabbed his hair and he moaned painfully
with his head kept down.
“It’s all destined to happen…”
More than ten minutes later, Vita left the car park like a zombie and returned home upstairs.
Upon opening his house doors, he heard the sound of happy chatter and looked up in confusion. He
quickly saw Jasper sitting on his sofa and looking at himself with a small smile.
Vita was stunned and was rooted in place the moment he saw Jasper.
The last thing he expected was for Jasper to appear at his house.
“Jasper had just arrived too, Vita. He’s been waiting for you to come home here, Why’d you come back
so late?”
Vita’s wife Daphne approached to greet him and squatted down to put slippers in front of Vita for him to
change into. Then, she took his briefcase with practiced ease whilst simultaneously explaining.
Vita looked at Jasper and was rendered speechless. “Why, am I not welcome, Mr. Layne?”
Jasper asked with a crescent-eyed smile.
Daphne also realized her husband’s abnormal behavior today and glared at him, facing away from
Jasper. She lowered her voice and said, “He’s greeting you. Why’re you acting like you’re dumb?”
Vita suddenly snapped back to reality.
“Oh, you’re here, Jasper. Why didn’t you tell me you were coming in advance?” Vita smiled forcibly.
“You said you had a meeting today and I just happened to be in the area. So I thought I’d come by and
visit,” Jasper replied with a grin.
Jasper looked at the clock on the wall as he spoke and continued meaningfully, “Doesn’t seem like a
long meeting at all.”
Vita felt extremely embarrassed.
The meeting was just an excuse, but he did not expect Jasper to wait for him at home.
His lie exposed, Vita did not know what to say.
Daphne must have realized the unusual atmosphere between the other two and said, “You two sit here
first. There aren’t many groceries at home, so I’ll go buy something from downstairs. Do stay for dinner,
Mr. Laine. I’ll go make the preparations now.”
Jasper did not reject her and smiled. “Thank you for the trouble, Mrs. Layne.”
