Life at The Top novel Chapter 1429

Because he was overwhehned with emotion, Fabian started coughing before he said anything.

“Mr. Fabian…?”

The man in his fifti es came over quickly to pat Fabian’s back.

After he finally started breathing normally again, Fabian took a few deep breaths. Then, he leaned back on his bed and laughed. He said, “Jasper is here? How great! How amazing!”

“He’s indeed the rival that forced me into a dead end. I thought he would hide and stay away from all the quarrels in Harbor City. However, he has bigger balls than I imagined.”

“Mr. Atticus, you don’t have to see someone like him,” the old man said.

Fabian smirked and replied, “I’m seeing him. Of course, I am. I’ve never lost ever since I was born. However, I lost to him. How can I not meet such an interesting rival?”

When the old man heard that, he frowned slightly. However, he did not retort. Instead, he said, “If that’s the case, let me welcome this Mr. Laine, okay?”

Fabian waved his hand and said, “Fine. Thank you, Waterson.”

“It’s my duty.” Waterson bowed slightly to Fabian and then turned around to leave the room.

After a while, Jasper spotted Waterson from where he stood at the end of the corridor.

“Are you Jasper Laine?” Waterson asked with no expression on his face.

Jasper nodded and replied, “Did Fabian agree to see me?”

“Mr. Fabian agreed. However, before that, I have to tell you something,” Waterson said.

“Mr. Fabian is the successor of the Atticus family, so his safety is our priority. So after you go in, please watch your words. Don’t make him angry and don’t purposely trigger him.”

“Also, even though you caused him to suffer some disadvantages in some aspects, you have to remember that Mr. Fabian’s future encompasses the entire Atticus family. His support is unimaginable.”

“He was just fooling around. I hope you don’t feel proud because of some small achievements. This was merely child’s play to Mr. Fabian and the Atticus family.”

“Lastly, you can go in, but the person behind you can’t.”

Waterson’s last sentence was obviously aimed at Julian, who was standing behind Jasper.

Jasper scoffed and looked at Waterson. He said calmly, “Sir, I have a question for you…”

Waterson replied faintly with a frown, “Since you’re pretty polite, you can ask, but I might not answer you.”

“May I know how the Atticus family built such a huge business when they had someone like you around?” Jasper’s statement caused Waterson to lift his eyebrows instantly.

“You punk!”

Waterson roared and lifted his hand to grab Jasper.

Jasper looked at Waterson calmly and stood his ground.

Meanwhile, a gust of wind appeared from behind him. It was Julian.

Their arms touched a few times about 60 centimeters in front of Jasper. However, in the blink of an eye, they retracted their hands.

“I was wondering why a snotty kid like you would dare to come here. It seems that you have an expert with you.”

Waterson looked at Julian in shock as he said to Jasper. Only people in the same industry would know whether the other party was truly skilled.

After the small fight just now, Waterson was shocked by Julian’s ability.

Reality is not a novel and there were not so many fortuitous meetings. Therefore, the short fight just now was not enough to display any physical capability. Yet, Waterson was surprised. He had trained for decades and yet, he was not confident in besting Julian.

“Kickboxing from the Dragon’s Palm and the Twelve Road palm. Young man, who is Sid Welles from Pegasus City in the mainland to you?” Waterson asked Julian in a serious tone.

“He’s one of my masters,” Julian answered insipidly.

After Jasper said that, he did not look at the change of expression on Waterson’s face as he walked straight into the room.

Julian looked at Waterson frigidly before an extremely arrogant smile appeared on his lips.

Jasper ignored the sounds of the fight and Waterson’s grunts of pain behind him.

It would be fine so long as Julian was not disadvantaged. He knew nothing about boxing but he could tell that Julian was able to defeat Waterson.

As for those bodyguards, Julian was not worried at all. Julian was even better at fighting off a group.

On the contrary, Jasper’s meeting with Fabian might not be so easy.

While pondering, he had already lifted his hand to push open the door of the room.

After he walked into the room, he found that not only did the air not smell like disinfectant, it smelled faintly of flowers instead.

It was not like a hospital room at all. Instead, it was more like a luxurious suite.

However, there was only one bed in the middle of the room.

Fabian was looking at him icily from the bed.

Jasper and Fabian had fought numerous times. It was already clear who the winner was, but this was the first time the two of them had actually met each other.

“Jasper, you’re so courageous.”

This was the first thing Fabian said to Jasper after they met.

When he said the second sentence, his tone sounded more malevolent.

“Are you not scared that I’ll make you stay in Harbor City forever?”
