Everyone had thought the bid would either end in Jasper clenching his teeth and calling out for a higher

bid while Marcus watched calmly as Jasper lost a large amount of money.

Or perhaps it would end with Jasper being understanding and giving up the land to Marcus at a low

price only to buy it over at a high price.

Still, the current situation was something no one had expected.

Everyone understood now as they watched Jasper show his hand.

It had been a set-up ever since the beginning, a trap where he would lure Marcus in only to end Marcus

with one strike.

The owners of the two real estate companies shared a look.

They looked at each other in confusion.

The same thought appeared in their heads, ‘Are all outsiders so fierce nowadays?’

Then, they looked at Marcus. Having lost the game and his dignity, Marcus resembled an aggravated

lion as he suddenly shot to his feet and slammed his palm on the table before him. The impact came

with a loud bang.

Following that was a roar even louder than the slam.

“How dare you trick me, Jasper?”

Jasper sat in his chair, unfazed by Marcus’ roar. He spoke calmly, “What do you mean? You were the

one who jumped out and challenged me for this plot of land. The bid was hosted by the city

government too, so how could you accuse me of tricking you?”

Jaw clenched tight, Marcus’ eyes were bloodshot. He was so infuriated he might explode.

‘This is 950 million Somer Dollars!

‘Almost f*cking one billion!

‘This one billion hard-earned money of mine is now gone! In its place is a 1,500-acre plot of industrial

land!’

The land was useless in Marcus’ hands, for he had no idea nor understanding of operating a factory.

What enraged him more was how he had stepped right into Jasper’s trap.

This had made Marcus extremely uncomfortable, as business for him had always been smooth-sailing.

In comparison to Marcus, Ned was more enraged.

Ned and the rest were such a tight-knit group of friends because they had a common interest.

While Marcus was the main shareholder of Fortune Co., Ltd, Ned had his fair share of shares as well.

This 950 million loss meant that Ned would lose a few hundred million as well.

If Marcus was already so infuriated, one could only imagine how much angrier Ned felt.

His pawnshop business did not make great profits. After all, the current social and economic

development had yet to arrive at the heights in Jasper’s past life. There were only so many things

civilians could pawn off right now. Most people were either someone’s employees or ran their own

businesses. It was rare for people to suddenly need a large sum of funds.

As such, a few tens of thousands a year was the maximum Ned could earn from his pawnshop.

There was no way Ned was willing to pay so much money in one go today.

Roaring, Ned arrived before Jasper and spoke wretchedly, “Stop pretending to be innocent, Laine.

Everyone with eyes can tell that you set a trap for us with this bid!

“You’re going to pay this 950 million whether you want to or not! Or I’ll kill you right now!”

Blinded by benefits, Ned no longer cared about the fact that they were in public as he threatened

Jasper on the spot.

Threats were not enough to alleviate his anger, so Ned reached out to grab Jasper’s lapels.

Behind Jasper, Julian had already stood up the moment Ned rushed over. Julian refused to see Jasper

get hurt, so he stepped forward in front of Jasper and reached out to grab Ned’s wrist.

Then, everyone present proceeded to watch Julian flip Ned, a broad and sturdy man of 190cm in

height, off the floor and bodyslam him onto the ground.

With a loud thud, Ned’s 100kg body hit the floor. Following this was a terrified and painful shout from

the man.
