Life at the Top

Chapter 255

“Do what you’re supposed to do. Tomorrow, no bank in Brac County will issue a loan to Future Industries, and they’ll start demanding payments for loans that have already been made.”

When Jasper finished speaking, he did not wait for Xavier’s surprised reply before hanging up the phone.

At that moment, Steve felt the top of his head go numb as he stared at Jasper. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

Jasper was going to kill his entire family!

“What… What are you doing?! Who did you call?!” Steve’s voice shook while he asked his questions.

“Who would most enjoy seeing Future Industries fail in the entire Brac County?” Jasper asked calmly.

Steve shuddered as he roared, “What the f*ck do you want to do?!”

Jasper ignored Steve.

It was because Harvey Zion had arrived.

Harvey had been discussing tactics with his brothers when Mark called him.

All orders for their shipbuilding company had been canceled, and Harbor City refused to give them a chance for a discussion. Harvey could not have kept it a secret from them even if he tried.

Relationships were a complex thing within a family business. Harvey might be the head of the family, but he was not yet at the stage where he could control everything.

He was furious when he heard that Mark, whom he had asked to apologize, did not bear good news. Rather, he was now being held captive at a hotel.

In his opinion, JW Real Estate was showing no respect for the Zion family at all.

The Zion family might be at fault here, but they were still one of the tyrants of Brac County. If JW Real Estate was so aggressive that they not only refused to accept their apology but even captured one of his people, would that not be a loud slap to the face?

Thus, Harvey immediately left with two of his best bodyguards.

When he arrived at the hotel room, Harvey immediately spotted Mark who had his hands wrapped around his bleeding head. He also saw Steve whose face had swollen to twice its size as he knelt before Jasper. His eyes narrowed.

“You’re Jasper Laine?” Harvey asked quietly.

Jasper replied calmly, “You’re the head of the Zion family?”

Harvey huffed, not thinking of Jasper as someone important. He said, “Where’s Dawson Schuler? I want to speak to him. Does he think I would negotiate with any runty scamps he sends my way?”

Jasper shook his head. “Negotiate? I think you’ve made a mistake.

“Besides, we don’t need to trouble him with matters like this. I can take care of it myself.”

Harvey scoffed angrily. “Dawson is too arrogant for his own good. He should know his place as the richest man in the province and me as the tyrant of Brac County. Does he really think the Zion family will sit back on their laurels as he bullies us?!”

“Dad!”

Mark yelled out desperately as he tried to tell Harvey that Jasper was the mastermind behind everything.

However, Harvey frowned and interrupted his son when he saw the state Mark was in. “Stop talking. I’ll take you to the hospital now.”

As he spoke, he got ready to take Mark with him.

Jasper’s low voice rang out. “Who dares leave this room without my permission?”

Julian, who had been standing behind him, stepped forth. He roared as he cracked his knuckles, which sounded more like he was popping corn. It caused goosebumps to appear on one’s flesh.

The expressions on the faces of the two bodyguards Harvey had brought along stiffened as they stood in front of their boss. “Boss, this is not someone we can mess with.”

Harvey had a furious expression on his face.

This was the first time he had been threatened in Brac County!
