There were two voice messages.

I tapped on the first one, and my heart stirred at a familiar voice – it was Marcus’. “Scar, is Ashton with you? If he… “

The message was cut off abruptly as if someone had interrupted it.

Without hesitating, I quickly tapped on the second one. I felt wrath boiling within me when I heard Holden’s provocative tone. “Well, aren’t I a courteous businessman? I showed you the proof even before we discuss business. But it depends on your sincerity whether you can listen to the rest. However, there is no need for you to worry. Even if the Taylor family masters all the communication base station’s locations, they will be smart enough not to compete with you. You have my words that White Corporation won’t be at any risk. So please make your decision well.”

If he were in front of me at that moment, I would surely have punched him. This man has no bottom line. He even uses others’ life as a bargaining chip.

Nonetheless, I admitted that Holden had made a brilliant move. Since Marcus had vanished for such a long time, the first thing he said was to ask for Ashton. This made me uncontrollably curious about it.

It took me a while to think, and I finally decided to respond with a voice message too. “So does the Taylor family always deal in such petty manner? You want to talk business, yet you only provide an incomplete voice message. Is this what you mean by courtesy?”
