Chapter 143: That Family Again?
Jason’s face turned furious after hearing that the owner was planning to evict his mother! This was the first time he was hearing about this and he couldn’t believe the landlord was actually going to throw his mother out after all the effort and time she put into this place! This restaurant had been in their family for fifteen years, so in a way, it felt almost like a part of their family! Jason wasn’t going to allow some fucking fast food joint to buy it!
"How much did they offer you?"
[It’s not about the money, Mr. Jason. In truth, they offered me less than what you offered. But I already signed the contract with them and the deal has been finalized. I’m sorry, but there’s nothing I can do.]
"What fast food joint are we talking about?"
[...Have you heard about Ulysses? It’s a new fast food joint that was started by Fredrick Cass, the multimillionaire.]
Jason’s face darkened even further. That surname was one that Jason would recognize anywhere! It was the same surname that Jared had! Didn’t that mean that this man was Jared’s father? Jason took in a deep breath as he tried to figure out what to do next. The only thing Jason could do now was to find a way to force Fredrick to let go of this restaurant, but with everything that had happened between Jason and Jared, Jason knew that it would be difficult to convince Fredrick of anything.
’I have to find something that’ll help me convince him. Something that will force him to accept my deal.’
Jason couldn’t think of anything right now because he didn’t know much about the Cass family, but with the connections he had been getting recently, Jason was sure that he would be able to find at least one thing he could use to strongarm Fredrick into a deal.
Jason would normally not use blackmail to get what he wants, but in this situation, Jason knew that there would simply be no other way to convince the Cass family. And as far as Jason was concerned he would hold nothing back to make his mother happy.
