Chapter 1457:

Brook coolly spread his hands on the table. “The meeting hasn’t started. I’ll give you an answer when it does.”

Casper snorted. “Oh, spare me the theatrics. We both know you have no choice but to sign.”

Brook’s glare would have cut glass. “As long as I refuse, you’ve got nothing.”

Casper’s smirk widened, his tone turning mockingly sympathetic. “Oh, Brook. Refuse all you want, but your family is running out of time. Without our help, the Owen Group collapses.

The mention of the deceased Enzo immediately darkened the atmosphere in the room, causing Brook’s expression to harden. “Casper Happer, watch your damned mouth,” he snapped sharply. “This isn’t the place for your disrespect.”

Casper responded with a mocking chuckle. “Still trying to lecture me? The tables have turned. Instead of begging for mercy, you dare to try and give me a lesson?”

Brook retorted with a sneer. “Even at our lowest point, the Owen family remains a formidable presence. What are you? Just a lapdog to your master.”
