Jasper’s words struck Shuan like a bolt of lightning.
The man looked at Jasper with eyes widened in disbelief. There was too much information contained in those few sentences.
“You crushed the Zion family?!
“The Zion family’s shipyard is yours?!
“Who are you?!”
Shaun roared in both fear and anger.
At this moment, Mary also realized that something was wrong.
Not that she was willing to believe her gut, though.
“Don’t listen to him, Shaun, he’s just Greg’s friend. Think about it, what kind of outstanding friends can Greg have? We’d have heard of him if he’s as powerful as he claims, but we didn’t. Moreover, why didn’t Greg say anything about it before?”
“You know what kind of person Greg is. He’s willing and happy to be ordered around as long as it means he’ll have a roof over his head and food to eat.”
Jasper glanced at Mary indifferently. He did not even have to mood to explain anything when it comes to women like this.
Despite this, Shuan was evidently panicking.
Unlike Mary, Shaun was the person in charge of the Wellington family’s business. He knew the inner workings of the industry like the back of his hand.
Take the large company in Harbor City, for example. While Shaun had yet reached the level of importance to directly contact the owner of the company, he at least knew that the owner’s surname was Heath!
This was something only people familiar with the industry knew.
