Life at The Top novel Chapter 492

Killing was always the most low-class solution to a problem for truly ambitious and ruthless characters.

Compared to killing, torturing was a more effective way.

Take for example, Jasper knew very well that when dealing with Hans and Ben, killing them would only help him vent out his anger momentarily.

After a moment of thrill, he would then face endless problems.

There were not many heroes today that could rob the rich to help the poor unlike in ancient times. It could cost him his life if he murdered someone.

Moreover, this was not in line with Jasper’s idea of putting them through utter misery.

This was the same for Ian.

Jasper could easily order Julian to cripple Ian.

What then?

The Hulls would still exist.

Ian would still carry out his revenge after that.

Therefore, Jasper had not planned to lay a finger on Ian from the beginning.

Ian was different from Hans and Ben. He was not a direct participant in this incident, nor did he have any knowledge of this incident before it happened.

Jasper was not trying to give Ian a way out, but instead, he wanted to rain blows on the Hulls via Ian.

It was only when the Hulls had nothing left that Ian and his family would finally feel pain and regret.

After hearing what Jasper said, Ian was abruptly stunned. He stared fixedly at Jasper and sneered. “Call the cops? Are you bold enough to call the cops after what you put them through?”

This was where the Hulls suffered the most disadvantage.

After weighing the pros and cons for a few seconds, Ian took a deep breath. He looked at Jasper coldly and asked, “What are you planning to do?”

He knew that there was still room for negotiations seeing how Jasper did not call the cops the first thing itself.

This so-called ‘negotiation’ was sure to cost the Hulls greatly.

In the face of Jasper’s overt plot, Ian had no choice but to jump inside despite knowing that there was a trap in front of him.

Unless he was able to bring himself to watch his brother and son getting tortured then later thrown into prison.

“Within three days, the Hulls will get lost from Southeast Province.”
