At least, that was what Mitch thought.“Kneel.” When he first heard the word, Mitch thought his ears were playing tricks on him. Even Henry and Anna widened their eyes. Kneel?! Jasper was asking Mitch Langdon to kneel!? Jasper’s smile grew wider as he gazed at Mitch, whose eyes had widened in shock. “What, did you not hear me clearly? I asked you to kneel.” Mitch, who had just fallen from heaven to hell, yelled furiously, “In your dreams!” Jasper said coldly, “Fine. You have a backbone. You can crawl, then.“You can crawl out of this room and have everyone stare at you as you crawl a full round. Either that or you can kneel before me here. It’s your choice.” Jasper sat on the couch and stared capriciously at Mitch as he said calmly, “Hurry up with your decision. I’m losing my patience.” Mitch’s entire body shook slightly as he gritted his teeth. The veins on his hands that were now curled into fists were popping out. Mitch was experiencing a multitude of emotions

How could this have been accomplished by an ordinary person? “You did well in your final choice. Mitch’s grandfather is an honorable man, and we’re indebted to him due to things that happened in the past. We must let him keep his reputation.”Zachary was extremely appreciative of the fact that Jasper had not driven Mitch to the point of desperation but instead chose to settle the matter with 100 million dollars. “Of course, you didn’t have to help the Law family repay what we owe the Langdon family. However, if you want to settle in Harbor City in the future, you should take note that we’re different from other places as we take our relationships very seriously. It would have been detrimental to your development if you had offended the Langdon family.” Jasper said calmly, “I didn’t think about it that much. Respect is earned, not given.“The Langdon family’s attitude doesn’t affect me too much. I merely think that exchanging a one-time kneel for 100 million dollars is much more

“Alright, you deal with your matters in Harbor City first!” “Don’t worry, I’ll be back soon.” Jasper talked to Wendy about other matters before hanging up. However, he did not go straight to bed. He used the hotel’s computer to browse the news and make some notes in the notebook he brought along with him. Although rebirth was Jasper’s greatest advantage, it would slowly weaken over time. Jasper was not one to sit on his laurels both in this life and the previous one. Thus, he needed to study and analyze the day’s news. Hard workers would not necessarily succeed, but successful people were always hard workers. Jasper was convinced of that. The next day, Anna dropped by the hotel with a tailored suit for Jasper. “It’s for the charity ball tomorrow,” Anna said as she passed the clothes to Jasper. “How did you know my measurements?” Jasper asked in surprise. Anna said gleefully, “Besides being the second young lady of the Law family, I’m also a designer. It’s not th

As the crowd stared, the Rolls-Royce pulled to a stop at the red carpet. Someone immediately came forth to open the door. Lights immediately began flashing wildly. It was as bright as if someone was shining a large searchlight. Henry was the first one to get out of the car.The wealthy son was well-known by both the tabloids and the crowd. Then, there was a face that most people did not know. “Who’s that?” Someone asked curiously as they watched Jasper getting out of the car. Even though they had no idea who he was, everyone understood that any person who could enter a venue in the same car as Henry Law would be someone important. He would have to be at least an esteemed guest of the Law family to have such eligibility. Both Zane and Mitch’s blood were boiling as they stood some distance away. They were wishing they could charge forth and pummel Jasper to death. Under the flashing lights, Jasper turned to stand by the car door in a gentlemanly manner. He reached out

Mitch stared at Jasper’s retreating figure. He felt blood pooling at the base of his throat, but he could neither swallow it nor spit it out. He had just been gloating over the fact that Queenie was his date, and Anna Law suddenly appeared beside Jasper the very next second. Queenie was pretty and famous enough. To be honest, one could not be embarrassed bringing Queenie along to any event. She was on par with his status as Mitch Langdon too. However, one was always worried to be compared with.A man’s success was measured by the woman beside him. Queenie was fine, but could she and Anna be compared side by side? They were miles apart. Mitch felt his face burning, and that translated to him feeling annoyed as he stared at Queenie. “Young Master Langdon… You…” Spooked by the look in Mitch’s eyes, Queenie was just about to speak when she heard Mitch saying, “F*ck off!” Queenie stared at Mitch, flabbergasted. “I said, f*ck off!” Mitch turned after speaking coldl
