Jasper merely chuckled when confronted with Ian’s anger. “I’m sorry, I don’t think I understand what
you mean.”
Ian slammed his palm on the table with a loud bang, causing the snacks and wine on the table to
splash and scatter all over the floor.
“Stop pretending to look innocent, Jasper. You were the one who leaked the news to the ICBS, right?!
How else would they know about what’s happening in Harbor City if you didn’t tell them?!
“Now they’re asking me to repay the loan immediately too! Why else would they react so quickly if you
hadn’t done anything?!”
Ian glared at Jasper ruthlessly. Fury burned bright red in his chest, and he wanted to throw Jasper into
the Harpoon River to feed the fishes.
Jasper shrugged and replied coolly, “I have nothing to do with the bank and your loan.
“The bank recognizes that you broke the law and they want you to repay the loan in advance. That’s a
matter between you and the bank. What does it have to do with me?”
Ian glared at Jasper coldly. If a look could kill, Jasper would have died thousands of times in Ian’s
hands by now.
“Don’t be so proud, Jasper. It’s just a two billion Somer Dollar loan!
“I’m Ian Hull, there’s no way I’d be stopped by a mere two billion loan. If you think you can win me like
this, then you can f*cking dream on!”
Jasper finally made a move in the face of Ian’s words.
Ian watched Jasper arrogantly, waiting for a reaction.
He saw Jasper slowly pull out a document and place it on the table.
‘Land Ownership Transfer Agreement.’
Ian’s pupils contracted.
“I just bought a plot of land a few hours ago. Coincidentally, the commercial building for G.S. Trading
Export Limited Company happens to sit on that plot of land.”
Jasper smiled at Ian as the other’s expression pulled tautly and became horrifyingly dark. “I think I just
became your landlord.”
At that moment, Ian’s heart constricted.
The last thing he expected was for Jasper to find a way to completely uproot him.
This plot of land belonged to the ICBS, which was intending to sell it.
Ian was well aware of the fact.
A few months ago, Ian even contacted the ICBS to purchase this plot of land as he believed that this
plot of land would only appreciate.
Even if it did not appreciate, it was still the plot of land his office building sat on and he would not make
a loss.
However, the ICBS had yet to make a decision back then, nor had they agreed on a price yet, so the
matter was left alone.
Ian had planned to talk to them about it again, but he did not expect Jasper to be a step ahead of him.
“The land is mine now, and in extension, so are all the commercial buildings atop it. There are still a
few months before the lease you signed comes to an end, right, Mr. Hull? That’s okay, I’ll pay
compensation according to the lease contract.”
Jasper smiled and tapped on the contract lightly. “It’s just a few hundred thousand dollars. I can easily
pay you that amount.”
Ian flushed abnormally red, and his breathing turned heavy as he stared at Jasper. Clenching his jaw,
he spat out the words from between his teeth.
“You’re going too far, Jasper!”
Jasper waved his hand dismissively. “Now this, I don’t understand. You’re the one who did all the
horrible things. All I’m doing now is retaliate, so why are you accusing me of going too far?
“Or are you saying it’s my fault for being bullied around by you, and I should just die because you want
me to?”
Jasper flipped his palms upward. “What kind of logic is that?”
Ian glared at Jasper, the fury in his eyes bubbling over. “You’re not good enough to offend the entire
Haddock Chamber of Commerce!
“This is my last warning. If you continue to act so ignorantly, you’ll be the one dying in a f*cking ditch in
the end!”
“Have you gone mad or did I hear you wrong, Ian?”
Jasper looked up at Ian indifferently with a deep gaze.
“You’re the one standing on the edge of the cliff now, not me.
“I’d start thinking about how I’m supposed to defend myself if I were you, not sit here daydreaming.
“The moment your smuggling case is proven at Harbor City, your future will be set in place and there’ll
be nowhere for you to run. What makes you think you’re the one winning here?”
Ian chortled and replied, “That’s why I said you’re too naive, Jasper. So what if they find out? You think
that means I’ll have to pay the price?
“It’s just 600 million, I can afford to lose it! I still have the Haddock Chamber of Commerce. I’m still a
member, and I can still start all over again!”
“And as for the smuggling you’re accusing me of, I don’t know what you’re talking about. I hand every
business transaction in my company to my confidant. Of course, he’ll have to go to jail for breaking the
law. But what does that have to do with me?”
Ian stared at Jasper and tried to find even a shred of disappointment or frustration on his expression.
However, he gave up in the end, for there was no shift in Jasper’s expression after Ian’s words.
“You’re too naive, Jasper. What makes you think I’d do those things myself? I had already found myself
a scapegoat in the very beginning. So what if they find out? It won’t affect me anyway.
“Your plans… are futile!
“I am Ian Hull. I’ve been in the business world for decades. What makes you think a 20-year-old brat
like you can compete with me, huh?”
Ian suppressed the anger within him and sneered coldly.
Jasper merely smiled and took the contract on the table before stating calmly, “Please do start thinking
about moving, Mr. Hull.”
