Life at The Top novel Chapter 536

John came to fetch Jasper the following day, and the two arrived at Ascendas Investment.

Ascendas Investment took up the entire top floor of an ordinary commercial building.

“Kai’s Ascendas Investment sure looks professional.”

Jasper told John as he took a glance at the pretty lady at the front desk.

John pursed his lips. “Kai doesn’t like being looked down on, so he tends to waste his money on formalities like this.”

Kai then walked out of his office to greet the both of them.

“Mr. Laine, John. Everything’s ready, should we go?”

Jasper glanced at the time, realizing that it was currently 7:40 a.m. There was still 20 minutes until the market opened, so he nodded and followed Kai into his office.

In the office, everything unnecessary had already been put away. All that was left was a large office desk with a few computers on it. The corresponding software had already been launched.

“Do you have the funds?” Jasper sat before the computer and asked.

Kai immediately replied, “All 800,000 dollars is in the account.”

Jasper was just about to speak when the office door was kicked open from outside with a bang.

Everyone in the quiet room was stunned, and Jasper’s eyes flitted over to see a sinister-looking middle-aged man enter the room.

“Samuel!” Kai shouted in shock.

Jasper leaned back on the chair and spoke with interest, “Now you’ve got me curious. How exactly do you plan to kill me?”

Samuel scoffed. “At least ask around before you start doing business here. Do you even know who I am? I’m Samuel Ray! How dare you steal my business from me?”

Kai’s expression darkened. “Samuel! You’ve been taking advantage of my need for help, wanting to take a 30% commission regardless of whether I make a profit or a loss. Since I’ve already decided against working with you, I’d appreciate it if you were more polite!”

Jasper finally understood why Samuel was so infuriated. He piped up calmly, “30% commission. Are your hands made of gold, Mr. Ray? What’s with the high charge?”

Samuel’s expression darkened. “Has no one ever taught you the rules, young man? How much I charge for commission is my issue. But you’ve got to at least consider your own skills before you dare steal my clients.”

Jasper looked at Samuel meaningfully and spoke calmly, “I might not be very capable, but I’m definitely more skilled than you.”
