Prev Chapter Next Chapter

On the highway between Suesville and Waterhoof City, Ian told his driver to stop the car just as they

arrived at the southern entrance of Suesville. His expression was cloudy.

The man was wondering what Jasper meant by his last words.

“But tell your driver to drive a little slower and steadier on your way back from Suesville, Mr. Hull. It’d be

a shame if you died in a car accident.”

‘Was Jasper warning me?’

Ian took a long drag of his cigarette and looked up at the sky above. The highway stretched onward to

the horizon, curving from time to time like a large dragon. The unease in his chest grew.

It was like there was a sinister plan waiting to devour him somewhere under the dark night ahead.

“Motherf*cker, this b*stard! If he has no qualms playing dirty and hurting Benny and Hans, then there’s

no saying whether he’ll let me go unharmed or not.”

Ian abruptly tossed the cigarette onto the ground and looked up at the driver. “Send me to the airport

instead. I’ll fly back to Waterhoof City. You can drive over.”

The driver was stunned. “Mr. Hull, it’ll only take two more hours to drive back. If you choose to fly, with

security checks and everything, it’ll take you at least three hours. It’ll be much more expensive too—”

“Enough. Just do as I say. Am I the boss here or are you?”

Ian chided darkly. He knew how stupid his decision looked to others, but he did not dare take risks with

his life.

Especially not when he had already gotten Gale’s support. The large support would arrive tomorrow,

and he would get to start his revenge plan against Jasper by then.

He would rather act foolishly than risk his life on this highway.

If Jasper turned out to be crazy and attacked him while he was on the highway, then he would truly be

screwed.

After being chided, the driver did not dare to comment further and turned the car around, heading to the

airport instead.

At the same time, Jasper and Vita’s conversation had slowly arrived at its climax with John’s input.

“As John’s old colleague, Mr. Layne, I’d say we aren’t complete strangers. I’d like to just get this out

there. I’m very interested in the piece of land opposite where your branch sits.”

Jasper pointed at the right side of Pearl Tower, on the other shore of Harpoon River, as he spoke.

From the beautiful scenic pictures in his past life of the Harpoon River, the current view lacked a

symbolic skyscraper—the Waterhoof City Financial Tower.

Where Jasper pointed was precisely where the tower would be built.

Vita smiled. “The land does belong to our branch now, and John has already told me of your intention,

Mr. Laine. Our branch does intend to sell, but the price… It’s a little high.”

“The price, huh? We can always negotiate.” Jasper smiled.

The ICBS Waterhoof City branch had sold it at a final price of 230 million in his past life.

However, Jasper did not expect to buy the plot of land at such a price now.

After all, it only cost 230 million because the ICBS Waterhoof City branch had been searching far and

wide for buyers while the plot of land was left unsold for two years. That was the reason behind the

large reduction in prices when they sold it to a state-owned real estate company.

Even if the ICBS Waterhoof City branch was willing to sell the plot of land now, there was no reason for

the price to be so greatly discounted.

“The branch has already evaluated the plot of land and we’ve decided that it’s worth 500 million Somer

Dollars. However, since we’re doing market trade here, we also understand that we can’t just follow the

evaluated cost. As such, we’ve come to the final price of 450 million Somer Dollars,” Vita spoke after a

moment of thought.

Jasper turned to John to see the man nod almost indiscernibly.

It seemed that Vita was not playing any tricks on this issue and was speaking the truth.
