Chapter 302

The Combe brothers were still mumbling when they heard Henry’s impatient voice from behind them.

“Are you limping? Why are you so slow?”

The brothers responded and quickly jogged over. They were holding the Laws’ suitcases and being eagerly attentive.

While following behind them, Hector was holding a big suitcase. Even though it was heavy, he was elated.

After all, this was Mr. Law’s suitcase. Not everyone was allowed to carry his suitcase.

His eyes kept shifting mischievously. Hector was thinking about how he was going to humiliate Jasper tonight.

“That’ll teach you a lesson for being so arrogant, you little idiot. Tonight will be the night you die!”

When Hector thought about his amazing fantasies, he let out a sinister laugh. He was so elated that he could not wait for tonight to come.

…

Jasper was in his hotel room looking at the report in his hand that Easy Media had handed over to him.

He was thinking about sending this report to Advent Entertainment Group over at Harbor City. After all, they were also in the entertainment industry, so they were experts compared to him.

Plus, as for the reorganization of Easy Media, he had to ask for advice from Advent Entertainment Group as well.

While Jasper was pondering about this, he received a call from Jim.

“Uncle Yapp, how is it? Did you get George’s company?” Jasper asked with a smile.

Jim answered, “Everything is done and I’m now reorganizing the staff. I owe you big time for this.”

Jasper got up and poured himself a cup of tea. He said, “Don’t be so courteous, Uncle Yapp. If I’m helping you, it means I’m helping myself. You have so many ways and information in Swallow Capital. Can you help me contact some headhunting companies? I need some professionals managing the entertainment company for me.”

Jim said, “No problem. I’ll contact you when I have news. However, I just got Hector’s call.”

Jasper lifted his eyebrow slightly. He had been waiting for a few days but Hector had been quiet this whole time. It did not seem like he was going to do anything but he had finally appeared now.

“He asked us to go to the Hoary Stock tonight. I know this place. It’s a small clubhouse founded by Hector and the members of the Residence. You can eat, drink, and have fun over there. It’s kind of like their base.

“So, I don’t think anything good is going to happen tonight since they’re asking us over.”

Jasper said insipidly after hearing what Jim said, “What else did he say?”

Jim smiled bitterly and said, “Indeed, I can’t hide anything from you. He said if we don’t show up, he’ll attack my company first and then shut me out. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

“People in my industry will certainly encounter some problems and we can’t handle an inspection. I plan to find a few friends to see whether they’ll help me muddle through this.”

Jasper could understand the bitterness in Jim’s words. He said, “Uncle Yapp, you don’t have to find someone. I don’t think your friends will offend the Combes for you. We’ll just go.”

Jim quickly said, “Jasper, this is different from last time. It’s more dangerous now. If we go, we’ll definitely suffer a loss. We can’t go!”

“Uncle Yapp, we can’t hide from this kind of people. The more we hide, the more they think we’re scared and they’ll become more intense.

“The only way to defeat them is to attack them back.”

Jim was quiet for a while. He gritted his teeth and said, “Okay, I’ll listen to you. Let’s do it! Worst comes to worst, I’ll just close down this company and go back to the province to live off your father-in-law!”

Jasper laughed and said, “I’ll wait for you to come pick me up in the evening.”

Around evening, Jim drove to the hotel to pick Jasper up.

This time, Jasper brought Julian who had nothing to do as well.

On the way there, Jim looked anxious.

“Uncle Yapp, how did you become friends with my father-in-law? He must have looked down on you.”

After interacting with each other these few days, the two had become close. As such, Jasper started making jokes with Jim.

Jim said unhappily, “I’m the one looking down on him! Who does he think he is to look down on me?”

“You two are completely different people. Uncle Yapp, you’re too cautious and it can be said that you’re a little timid and overly cautious. However, my father-in-law is bolder than you,” Jasper said.

Not much needed to be said about Dawson’s boldness. If not, he would not have hastily gone into investing and almost got all of his assets scammed off him.
