Victory in Life
Chapter 661
"I'll give you a check once I get the material."
Emerson Lang laughed. He knew that Jasper understood his good intentions.
20 Million US dollars is a drop of water for companies like Sentel Corporation.
Emerson could have easily chosen not to sell the patent for an MP3, but he has decided to do so at a very reasonable price. This was because he wanted to befriend Jasper, who seemed to know personally the daughter of the Sentel Corporation.
Dealing with smart people is easy. As long as they understood each other's intentions, not everything should be publicly stated.
After the two signed the contract, Jasper paid in advance a sum of 10 million US dollars. At that moment, someone barged into Emerson's office.
"Uncle, did Miss Sylphie introduce a man to the company?!"
The one who barged into the room was a young man. As soon as he entered the room, he immediately asked Emerson a question.
Emerson frowned. "Mr Jonathan, this is the office of the group's president. If you want to meet me, you must have a valid reason, and you must make an appointment through my secretary!" He rebuked the young man.
With his neat appearance, Jonathan Lang looks more like a pop star than the president of the company. He stared intently at Jasper and grumbled, "What about him? Isn't he the one that Miss Sylphie introduced to the company? Did he make an appointment?"
"Mr Jonatan! Remember position!" Emerson. He's obviously angry.
"You're just the president of one of the company's branches. You don't have the right to yell at me in the group president's office. Did I teach you to behave like this?"
Jonathan stared ferociously and enviously at Jasper. He then lowered his head and apologized to Emerson. "I'm sorry, Mr. Emerson," he said.
"Get out!!" shouted Emerson.
Jonathan clenched his fists and continued to stand upright. "I'm not going out. I need to know what the relationship is between him and Miss Sylphie" he said in a stern tone.
Jonathan's face flushed with anger. He stared intently at Jasper, then turned around and left the room furiously.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Laine. I'm sorry you had to see that" Emerson told Jasper.
"It's okay, Mr. Jonathan must have misunderstood," Jasper said in a flat tone.
"He's too spoiled" Emerson said. His voice expressed his dissatisfaction towards his nephew.
Even so, Jasper did not want to get involved in Emerson Lang's family affairs. They exchanged another greeting before Emerson's secretary reminded him that an hour had passed. Thus, Jasper said goodbye to her politely.
Both sides have decided to finalise the deal in the shortest possible time. Therefore, Jasper left Emerson's office feeling satisfied.
Jasper had not walked far from the office and was just about to enter the elevator when a hand reached out that blocked the entrance of the elevator.
Jasper lifted his eyes and looked up. Jonathan Lang had been waiting for him all along.
"What's your relationship with Sylphie?" Jonathan asked, his voice tinged with jealousy.
"We don't know each other" replied Jasper.
He would not lie to Jonathan on purpose, nor would he want to explain anything to him. He managed to get Sylphie Lang's recommendation because of Anna Law's connection.
He had never even met the Sentel Corporation's daughter.
"That's totally bullshit!" exclaiming Jonatan. Obviously, he didn't believe in Jasper.
"Everyone knows that Miss Sylphie never interfered in the affairs of the company. However, he personally asked my uncle for help because of you. However, you're telling me that you don't know him?" Jonathan screaming.
