Life at The Top novel Chapter 1185

All of this had actually happened really quickly.

Only one minute had passed since Henry threw the cup at him to Prince getting slapped multiple times.

Everyone in the meeting room was stunned.

Especially the president.

He greatly disliked Prince and wanted nothing more than to throw the man out of the room.

Yet, considering Prince’s status, the president knew that he would be in great trouble if anything happened to Prince today because of Henry. On the other hand, he had no idea would happen to Henry.

He did not recognize Henry, nor did he know what family Henry came from. All he knew was that Jasper was the only person who could hold Henry back.

“Mr. Laine, I don’t think it would be good for anyone if this situation gets out of hand.”

Jasper looked at the president’s terrified expression and replied calmly, “Prince pissed my friend off so it’s only normal he pays the price. Why, Mr. President, do you think we’re going too far?”

The president smiled dryly and replied, “It’s just that I don’t think anyone here would like to see something actually bad happen over such a conflict, right?”

At that moment, Henry scoffed and told the president unkindly, “What’re you scared of? I’m the one who beat him up, this has nothing to do with you. It’s not like I need you to take responsibility for this.”

Jasper saw the president’s expression turn awkward and said calmly, “Mr. President, what of this meeting’s notion, then?”

The president seemed to wake up from his stupor and immediately replied, “It’s denied, of course. Our partnership with you will continue, as usual, Mr. Laine.”

Jasper nodded and said, “Mr. President, our partnership has always been a fulfilling one on both sides, and there’s never been an issue throughout its lifetime. Since everyone’s interests are met and have benefitted by the partnership, I would prefer if similar situations did not happen again. After all, you’re a busy man and I don’t have the time to wait for you to hold a meeting over this every other day.”

“Should you consider terminating our partnership over some small and insignificant matter again, then I see no point in further partnership with you either. Do you see where I’m coming from?”
