Everyone turned around, only to see a man in his fifties walking towards the scene with a frown on his face.
Seeing the man, Amelia's boyfriend's eyes widened in shock, but soon it changed to a smile, and then he left Amelia and hurried towards the man.
"Mr. Micheal, it's a pleasure to meet you, I'm Justin Wales." He said hurriedly, introducing himself.
But much to his shock, Micheal didn't even spare him a glance and just walked towards Jasper who was standing and looking at the scene with a broad smile on his face.
Seeing this, Justin was immediately happy as he thought that Michael was about to scold Jasper, but the next moment, his expression changed as he couldn't believe what happened next.
"Mr. Brennan, sorry for the delay. It's nice to meet you." Michael smiled and bowed a little to Jasper.
"You don't have to worry about that." Jasper waved his hands.
"Also, you can just call me Jasper next time," he added.
Micheal nodded, hearing what Jasper said, and then he added with a smile.
"Shall we?"
"No, wait a little; there's a brat here who happens to claim that he knows you and can order you to do what he wants with just a call." Jasper laughed, pointing at Justin, who was shivering by the side.
His eyes were wide in shock, and it was like he couldn't believe what he was seeing.
"I would like to know if that's true, so I would be able to carry out the correct measures," Jasper added. A faint hint of threat could be felt in his last statement.
Micheal was shocked when he heard what Jasper said. He knew what the latter was trying to hint at, and thus, he was covered in sweat.
Though the hotel was a five-star hotel, it was not that powerful enough, but still, the Wales family was not powerful enough to make them answer their beck and call...
The receptionist who had attended to Jasper was covered in sweat as she felt that she was lucky not to have disrespected the latter and followed the company rules.
Else she would have lost her job. Though she didn't know who Jasper was, she could tell that from the way Michael addressed him, he was no ordinary person.
Justin, on the other hand, was covered in sweat. Though his family was powerful, his father was still going to blame him if they were to fall out with Micheal.
"I don't happen to know him." Micheal chuckled, breaking the tense silence in the atmosphere.
"He's just a brat of the Wales family and I happened to have discussed some business with his father in the past," He added.
"Oh, I see," Jasper muttered, and then turned to look at Justin.
"But I thought you said you could call him anytime you wanted. Seemed like you're nothing but all fake." He sneered and then turned to look at Amelia, whose eyes were wide open as she stared at him.
"Jasper, who are you..." Amelia stuttered as she managed to say while looking at Jasper, not knowing what to say.
She was not a fool and knew that by the way Michael, who was the manager of the company, was acting, Jasper was the owner of the hotel.
Then how the heck did she not know that? Why didn't he tell her? Why did he keep it a secret from her and allow her to wallow in poverty?
Anger bred in her heart as she thought of this.
"Jasper, you lied to me!" She yelled as she finally lost it all.
"Call the security guards and ask them to throw her out, she's hurting my ears with her yells." Jasper commanded.
"Yes sir." Micheal nodded and immediately called the security guards.
But Justin was a step ahead and quickly pulled Amelia out of the hotel.
It was going to be a blow to his reputation if his woman was to be thrown out, so he acted.
"And also, those two, send them to the hospital," Jasper commanded, turning to the two bodyguards who were lying on the floor, rolling around in pain.
He had no grudges against them and thus, he was not willing to let them be in that state.
William carried out Jasper's orders almost immediately, and the two men were soon sent to the hospital.
"Sir, let's go," Micheal said respectfully, and led the way to his office.
"What a nice place." Jasper nodded, feeling rather satisfied with the layout of the office.
"Thank you, sir." Micheal smiled and offered his seat to Jasper, but the latter refused and rather sat on the couch.
"Sir, here are the accounts on how the company is faring and others." Micheal gave Jasper a stack of files as he said.
"What am I to do with this?" Jasper looked rather amused and pushed back the files to him.
"If you were not a good manager, then you wouldn't have been able to manage the state of the company's affairs up to this level, so you can rest assured." Jasper shook his head.
It was a lot of work, so he was not going to do that. So he just shook his head and refused.
"The real reason I'm here is that I want to give you a task..." He continued.
"What is that sir?" Micheal asked, looking attentive.
"I want you to list out the things that would be needed to upgrade the hotel to a seven-star hotel."
"But, Sir, that would cost a lot of money. Upgrading the hotel to a seven-star hotel in a go would cost a lot of money, and if we are not careful, we might fail." Micheal looked at Jasper worriedly.
"Don't worry about the money, just do as I've said, I'll take care of the expenses. List them out, I'll be back in two days and then we'll discuss it." Jasper waved his hands and then stood up.
"That's all for now, I'll be taking my leave." He added and stepped out of the office.

Stalemate
The fight began faster than most people expected. Bai Zhe stepped forward first. The girl stepped forward too. No one said anything. They both just stared at each other, waiting for the other to move.Jasper sat with the others. He leaned back. “This one might take a while,” he said.Bai Zhe shifted his feet. The girl did the same. She kept her eyes on him. He didn’t blink.“Ready?” she said.“Yeah,” Bai Zhe replied.The referee raised his hand. “Begin!”Bai Zhe rushed in. She blocked instantly. Their fists collided. They both paused for a second from the impact. She swung at him, but he bent back and avoided it. He tried to sweep her legs, but she jumped. She tried to kick him when she landed. He caught her leg. She twisted out of his grip.They both stepped back again.“Not bad,” Bai Zhe said.“You too,” she said.He charged again. She met him halfway. Their fists kept meeting. Every punch sounded heavy. The crowd got louder. Some people already stood up.Bai Zhe tried to grab her a
Long Day
Dinner that night was quiet in a way that felt heavier than any argument. Everyone sat around the table, eating slowly, each of them lost in their own thoughts. No one seemed eager to speak. Even Bai Zhe, who always had something to say, kept his gaze on his bowl.Jasper sat at the end. His posture was straight, his expression unreadable. He didn’t say much either. He only observed them, and the room itself, as though he was filing everything away in his head.One of the men who had lost twice cleared his throat. “Long day,” he muttered.Bai Zhe nodded. “Very long.”The girl sat two seats away. She poked lightly at her food. Her hand was steady enough, though Jasper noticed the slight tension in her shoulders.“You should eat,” Jasper said.She looked at him for a moment, then nodded and took a small bite.Another one of the men sighed. “Tomorrow will be worse.”“It won’t be worse,” Bai Zhe said. “It’ll just be annoying.”The man huffed quietly. “Same thing.”No one laughed, though a
You fought good
The clock kept ticking on the wall, each minute dragging a little longer than it should. Everyone in the arena seemed tired. Even the crowd sounded drained. After the last match ended, the referee finally raised his hand and spoke loudly enough for the room to hear.“That’s all for today. We continue tomorrow.”A few people sighed in relief. Some clapped weakly. A couple of the fighters just walked off without waiting for anything else. It had been a long day, and most of them didn’t have much strength left to pretend otherwise.Jasper stood near the side, arms folded. He didn’t react to the announcement. He just watched his men walk over to him one by one. Some of them looked embarrassed. Some just looked disappointed.Two of his men had lost twice already. Their expressions told the whole story before they even opened their mouths.“Boss,” one of them said quietly.Jasper nodded. “You did what you could.”The man didn’t look convinced, but he nodded back.The second man approached.
Withdraw
Two minutes before she stepped onto the stage, the room felt too still. She stood there with her arms folded, staring at the floor like she was trying to settle her thoughts before they spilled over.Jasper didn’t like the look on her face.He leaned closer. “You heard that announcement?”She nodded once.He let out a breath. “Don’t fight. Just step back and let it go.”She didn’t answer immediately. She kept her eyes on the ground, almost as if she was waiting for something to make the choice for her. But nothing did. She lifted her head.“I need to win one of the first three spots,” she said quietly.Jasper frowned. “You won’t get it if you’re injured.”“I still need to try.”“You don’t,” he said. His tone was steady, not harsh. “If you quit, you still have a chance later. They might let it slide. But if you get hurt now, you’re done. There’s nothing after that.”She shook her head. “No. I’m already here. I can’t step back now.”He exhaled again, slower this time. “You’re being stub
Jasper versus Roland
The referee raised his hand again. “Next match. Jasper versus Roland.”Roland stepped forward. He was one of the three men everyone already feared. He cracked his knuckles once and looked at Jasper with a calm expression. Jasper didn’t say anything. He just stood there, relaxed.People in the audience whispered.“That’s one of them.”“Jasper might lose.”“I don’t think so. He’s too calm.”“Calm doesn’t mean unbeatable.”Bai Zhe rubbed his sore arm. “He’ll be fine.”Marco wasn’t convinced. “You sure? That guy looks dangerous.”“He always looks dangerous,” Bai Zhe said. “Let’s just watch.”The referee dropped his hand. “Begin!”Roland moved first. He rushed at Jasper without hesitating, aiming a straight punch at his face. Jasper tilted his head slightly, and the punch went past him. Roland didn’t stop—he spun and aimed a kick toward Jasper’s ribs.Jasper caught the leg with one hand.The crowd gasped.Jasper pushed Roland back gently, as if he was just clearing space. Roland stumbled t
I'm still alive
Bai Zhe gritted his teeth as the kick hit his knee. He staggered back a step, steadying himself. The man came in fast again, throwing another punch. Bai Zhe dodged it this time and pushed the man’s arm aside, trying to create space.“I thought you said you were tired,” the man said.“I lied,” Bai Zhe replied.The man chuckled and rushed in again. Bai Zhe moved back, blocking a punch to his chest. The impact still made him wince. He could feel a sting in his arm. The man wasn’t holding back.Marco shouted, “Bai Zhe, move to the left! Don’t stay straight!”“I know!” Bai Zhe snapped, but he still listened. He shifted left and avoided another punch by a hair.The man kept pressing him, punch after punch. Bai Zhe blocked some, dodged the rest, but his breathing was getting heavier. The man didn’t seem tired. He kept a steady pace, like he had been waiting for Bai Zhe’s stamina to drop.“You’re slowing---” the man said.“You talk too much,” Bai Zhe replied.The man smirked. He aimed a kick
