Chapter 241

”According to what I know, there’s a vice president in Ambition Corporation who has the surname Quare. I think he’s also the biological brother of the boss of Future Industries?”

Hearing Jasper’s question made Xavier, who thought Jasper would first discuss business with him, dumbfounded.

“You’re right, Mr. Laine, but my vice president is also my friend, my brother. Even though he’s Douglas Quare’s biological brother, they’ve long since been separated.

“Initially when I got transferred back from the military, I couldn’t find a good job for a while. It was this brother of mine who brought me onto this path of building materials. I can say that Ambition Corporation was able to get to today’s scale mostly thanks to my brother.”

Xavier did not hide anything. This incident was known by everyone in Brac County. As long as one went asking around, they would be able to figure it out.

“However, Mr. Laine, does this have anything to do with the corporation between your company and Ambition Corporation?” asked Xavier.

Jasper said faintly, “Of course, there’s some connection to it because right now, JW Real Estate is choosing a reliable partner in the building materials industry. Obviously, we can’t just find someone who will end up losing his family because of his brother to cooperate with us.” Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Xavier’s expression changed drastically after hearing it.

He was quite joyful when he initially heard that JW Real Estate was having the intention to choose a reliable partner.

In Brac County, that was just a branch company to JW Real Estate. Even though there were some difficulties that prevented it from moving forth because of the pressure exerted by the Zion family,

however, in the view of the entire province, JW Real Estate was definitely an upstart in the property industry.

‘If only we can become their reliable business partner, then Ambition Corporation will be in charge of all the building materials of JW Real Estate throughout the entire province. That’ll be such a great thing!’

However, Jasper’s words made Xavier’s good mood immediately disappear into thin air.

“Mr. Laine, what do you mean by that? My relationship with my brother is not something an outsider like you can understand. How is it possible that he’ll make me lose my family? I wouldn’t be here if it’s not for him.”

Although he had changed countless jobs throughout the years, Xavier still retained the boldness of a soldier from his time in the military deep in his bones. At this moment when he saw that Jasper was trying to ‘sow discord’, he argued back ruthlessly.

“He can even betray his own biological brother, so what more you?” said Jasper immediately.

That statement left Xavier speechless for a long time.

“Mr. Johnson, honest people won’t say things behind other people’s back. You can look into it, how the siblings got into a fight in the beginning and ended up going their own pathways. Besides, go and look at your company’s account. You’ll know what I’m talking about soon enough.

Xavier’s expression became more awful as he heard Jasper’s words.

Out of trust, he had basically handed over the company’s account to his brother to manage and he would not bother with those matters.

However, Jasper’s words were like a thorn, making it hard for him to accept the words.

Jasper shook his head slightly when he saw Xavier’s expression that was changing for the worst.

‘So it means that people like Xavier aren’t suitable to run a business.

‘He’s too honest and easily trusts others.’

Take Jasper for example. No matter how good of a relationship he shared with others or how great the ability of that person was, he would never hand over the financial authority to another.

Except for Wendy.

She was different because she was Jasper’s lady.

However, for those who were not his family, Jasper would beat that person’s head into pieces with a bat if they wanted to lay a finger on the finances of the company.

“Mr. Laine, you called me over today just to talk about this matter?” asked Xavier.

Jasper said faintly, “As I said before, I’m planning to choose a building materials supplier who is reliable for JW Real Estate. Ambition Corporation is the first company that I’m considering, but if you can’t solve the problems within your company, then I won’t choose you guys.”

Xavier gritted his teeth and said, “I need to go back and have a look.”

“Since the opponent has already decided to do it, he won’t allow you to catch him red-handed so easily. I have a better idea that can help Ambition Corporation conquer the market of building materials in Brac County, and it can also make this whole incident come to light. It’s up to you whether or not you’ll give us your cooperation, Mr. Johnson.”

Xavier’s eyes sparkled, and he looked at Jasper before saying, “I’m all ears.”

Jasper said with a smile, “Strike down Future Industries.”
