Chapter 199
When Jake was close to getting the opportunity to humiliate Jasper, he heard four unenthusiastic words.
“Alright, I’ll do it.” Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Jasper’s four words caused Jake to have a million words in his head but he was unable to even utter one word.
“What did you say?” Jake narrowed his eyes and looked at Jasper.
“I’ll take this bet. If I win, you’ll kneel and formally become my apprentice. Of course, you have to kneel and grovel. It’ll depend on my mood if I want to take you as my apprentice.
“And vice versa,” Jasper said fully.
Jake laughed angrily and said, “Alright, you’re the one who said this. I’ll take this bet!
“Country bumpkin from Mainland, remember this, the worst mistake in your life is stealing this market rescue because you seek to impress people by taking on more than your ability. From this moment on, you’re going to have your reputation swept away!”
Jake smiled coldly and said, “The facts will tell you that Harbor Stocks is the one place where all the international capitals come together. On the other hand, a country bumpkin from Mainland like you will only be an ignorant and narrow-minded toad. You have no idea how big the outside world is!”
“I have no idea how big the outside world is, but there are a lot of idiots in society nowadays,” Jasper said insipidly.
Jake said sharply and unkindly, “Don’t think you’re all that because you’re quick-witted. I’ve seen a lot of people like you. They don’t have any talents and only know how to dupe people with their smart
mouths, but actually, they’re just lying.
“I’ve seen more than you think you know. I can even make a name for myself in a place like Wall Street, so who do you think you are?” Jake said disdainfully.
“Not bad. You’re indeed educated so that’s why you keep saying the same old stuff. Remember what you just said so you can reminisce about them when you eat your words later. It’ll help you make clear of reality.”
After he said that, Jasper did not want to pay any more attention to this simpleton. He entered the door while talking to Zachary.
Then, the group went into the house together. Nobody paid any attention to Jake.
“Mr. Cullen, shall we go in?”
The official from the government who tagged along smiled bitterly and said.
Jake gritted his teeth while feeling aggrieved. He smirked coldly and said, “Go! Let’s go now. I want to see how he’s going to fail and how he’s going to die!
“When he fails, I want him to kneel in front of me, unable to cry!
“Those people who are supporting him now will also pay the price for being hot-headed. They will know that only I can host this rescue!”
…
Still in that secluded villa.
Bob stood at one side with an awkward and angry expression. Kennedy’s face was grim, and he did not look good.
On the other side was Rogers. He lightly tapped the surface of the table with his fingertips and said coldly, “Lancaster, I think you’re very stupid. It was such an obvious trap and you couldn’t even see it. On the contrary, you even fell into it.”
Bob’s expression looked even worse.
Even though he was feeling extremely pissed, he did not try to defend himself.
He knew what everyone wanted now was results and not explanations.
The result was that he was the one who did not crash Harbor Stocks according to the initial plan, but instead, he fell into the other party’s trap and caused them to lose a few hundred million of funds.
At this moment, the more he explained, the more mistakes he would make.
Kennedy scoffed. Even though he was displeased with Bob’s useless performance, he still said, “Since it has already happened, there’s no use explaining anymore.”
“I just got the news that the Laws are going to make Jasper the host of the market rescue. Now, we can be sure that Jasper was the one behind what happened this morning.”
At this moment, a Caucasian man walked in front of Rogers with a cold expression on his face. He handed him some documents.
“Jasper Laine? That young man…” Rogers lowered his head to look through the information in his hands. Suddenly, he guffawed and said, “Interesting! I didn’t expect this young man to give everyone such a huge surprise!”
