Life at The Top novel Chapter 1097

Dudley struggled like mad. “Henry! F*cking let go of me!”

Yet, no matter how he struggled, Dudley could not fight out of Henry’s grip. He was like a powerless chick.

Just then, Alban walked over with a dark look on his face.

He glared at his son first. Despite how Alban had reminded him not to offend Henry, his useless offspring had still angered the man anyway, which made him extremely upset.

This was the perfect time to force Jasper to surrender, yet here his son was, getting into trouble with Henry. He was causing unnecessary issues now.

“Mr. Law, this, isn’t very appropriate, is it?”

While he did want to beat Dudley up, the latter was still his son, and many people were currently looking at them. Thus, Alban had no other choice but to suppress his anger and get his son out first.

“Hey, old man. How about you ask your son what he did first before you ask me to let him go, hmm?”

Henry patted Dudley’s face as he said. “This little sh*t’s been going on motherf*cking this and motherf*cker that, he just kept bringing my mom into the conversation. You see, my mom passed early on and she’s a taboo topic between me and my dad. But who knows how many
times this son of yours has involved her? Is this how you educate your child?”

Alban’s eyelid twitched and he looked at Dudley extremely darkly.

Dudley was currently bent at his waist while Henry kept his arms around his neck. He seemed like a stray dog that had been tied and hoisted up, making him look extremely embarrassing.

Dudley wanted to cry, but could not do so. He shouted, “It’s a habit, I didn’t mean it.”

“So what if it’s a habit? Who taught you the habit of involving mothers into your curses, hmm?” Henry sneered.

Alban took a deep breath. He knew that there was no point being reasonable with trust-fund rascals like Henry, so he could only turn to Jasper.

“Mr. Laine, isn’t this trick of yours a little too lowly?” Alban asked grimly.

Jasper chuckled and said calmly, “Publicize and release that report as you wish, Mr. Ball!”

“I wouldn’t dare to claim that all my properties are flawless, but I’m sure it can survive an investigation on the issue of its quality. If a mere evaluative report is enough to cause the downfall of my World Financial Center, then I might as well not construct it at all.”

Alban’s pupils contracted instantly at the words.

Jasper had actually spoken about this incident in front of so many pairs of eyes and ears.

It had been no more than twenty minutes and a phone call in the adjacent room between Jasper’s current stance and his sour expression from when he first received the report.

Just who had Jasper contacted, and what had been said, for this man to grow so fearless in the space of around a dozen minutes?

Alban suddenly felt lost.
