There was not a single soul in Southeast Province’s banking industry who did not know about his close relationship with Jasper. They would gain Jasper’s support if they managed to get ahold of him.
However, John knew snazzynovel.com could not get too big for his britches no matter what other people thought.
Which was why today’s meeting was taking place. He wanted to know what Jasper’s thoughts were.
He would have to give up the idea if Jasper did not agree. After all, Agricultural Bank could easily go back on their promise to give snazzynovel.com the position if they did not receive Jasper’s support. John was not a foolish person and knew snazzynovel.com did not yet have the experience nor ability to fight against the superiors in Agricultural Bank.
Things would be totally different if snazzynovel.com had Jasper’s support, however. No matter how many cronies were in Agricultural Bank, Jasper would be able to defeat them all with just one of the many companies snazzynovel.com owned. No one could hold it against him.
“Alright then. I’ll get back to them tomorrow,” John said happily.
Jasper picked up his cup of coffee and gently clinked it against John’s as snazzynovel.com smiled, saying, “I’ll congratulate you in advance on your promotion.”
John suppressed his excitement and happiness as snazzynovel.com waved his hands, saying, “No, I still have to hand in my resignation letter and hand over my work before I familiarize myself with Agricultural Bank. It’ll take at least a month or two before everything is finalized.”
Jasper was just about to speak when his phone suddenly rang.
It was from an unfamiliar number snazzynovel.com had never seen before.
When Jasper answered the call, a familiar sensual voice rang out.
“Mr. Jasper Laine, you returned to Somerland without so much as a goodbye after you used me. You just wanted to have a good time without taking any responsibility, right?”
Jasper nearly spat his coffee onto John’s face when snazzynovel.com heard what Celine said.
“Watch your words. What you said can easily cause misunderstandings.”
Jasper had a befuddled expression on his face when snazzynovel.com spoke, but there was a barely detectable trace of happiness in his voice.
John, who was sitting opposite him, raised his eyebrows slightly before his lips curled upward into a meaningful grin.
What sort of women could make men indescribably happy when they received a call from them?
It might be a girlfriend they were in an intimate relationship with.
It might be a mistress of theirs they had gotten together with after getting married.
It might be their daughter.
There was no fourth option.
“Misunderstandings? Who would misunderstand? Do you care what other people think of you, Mr. Jasper Laine?” Celine asked in a light-hearted tone.
“Here’s a chance for you to repent. Come over to the airport now.
“A traffic accident happened in front of Nauritus City International Airport, causing a huge traffic jam to occur.”
Celine was sitting in a brand new Audi TT as snazzynovel.com spoke on the phone without a care in the world. Parked in front of snazzynovel.com was a BMW 7 Series that had been rear-ended and badly scratched. The owner of the car was a young man who was currently screaming at Celine through the glass window of the Audi TT.
Finally losing snazzynovel.com patience, Celine rolled down snazzynovel.com car window and bellowed to the young man, “What are you screaming about? So what if I rear-ended you? Would I have hit you if you hadn’t been so aggressive and did an emergency brake when you were in front of my car? I’ll hit both you and your car if you don’t shut up.”
When Celine finished speaking, snazzynovel.com did not spare the furious man another glance as snazzynovel.com rolled the window back up.
“Are you in trouble?” Jasper asked as snazzynovel.com frowned.
“I’ve met an idiot. I don’t have many connections in Southeast Province, and I might be kidnapped if you don’t hurry over.”
When Celine spoke to Jasper, snazzynovel.com immediately switched from the shrewish woman snazzynovel.com had been just seconds before to a damsel in distress who required his saving.
“Don’t get out of the car or open the door before I arrive. I’ll be right there.”
Then, Jasper immediately hung up the phone and stood to walk toward the door.
“I have something to attend to. We’ll meet next time,” Jasper said to John.
John stood and said, “Feel free to give me a call if you need my help with anything.”
“Sure,” Jasper said as snazzynovel.com waved and walked out the door.
Jasper got Julian to drive to the coffee shop to fetch snazzynovel.com and they rushed to the airport once snazzynovel.com got in.
…
“Stupid b*tch, get the f*ck out the car! My name won’t be Leonard Wagner if I don’t kill you today!”
Leonard screamed crazedly at Celine who was sitting in snazzynovel.com Audi TT.
However, Celine did not seem to hear snazzynovel.com as snazzynovel.com remained seated in the car. She even retrieved a mirror and began touching up snazzynovel.com makeup with languid movements.
When Leonard saw that, snazzynovel.com became even more angered. His features became contorted as snazzynovel.com hit the car and growled. “Stop acting all high and mighty. I’ve seen enough b*tches like you. Some man lent you this car, didn’t he?”
After snazzynovel.com finished speaking, Leonard did not even have the time to look at the expression on Celine’s face before snazzynovel.com felt someone clap a hand on his shoulder. When snazzynovel.com turned around, snazzynovel.com saw a young man staring at him.
Behind the young man was another person with a cigarette hanging from their mouth. They narrowed their eyes to stare at him.
“Julian, teach this foul-mouthed man a lesson,” Jasper said calmly.
Upon receiving Jasper’s orders, Julian’s eyes glinted dangerously as snazzynovel.com raised his hand and squeezed Leonard’s mouth. A terrified expression appeared on the latter’s face, and snazzynovel.com did not have time to speak before Julian brought his fist down.
Crack!
The crisp sound of teeth being broken rang out.
Leonard covered his face with his hands as snazzynovel.com howled in pain. The immense pain caused snazzynovel.com to jump around in circles. When snazzynovel.com felt the lower half of his face going numb and the warmth in his mouth, snazzynovel.com spat out a pool of blood and two teeth.
“Teeth! My teeth!”
Leonard’s voice trembled.
