Chapter 99
Everyone was surprised by what Jessica was saying, and some of them were even starting to believe
her.
Jessica said, “He is just a pathetic man. Just because of one opportunity, he used it to punish me, even when they had already promised me the project would be mine p>
Marcus sighed and said, “Promised you? Who did that? We didn’t promise anyone anything, and whoever told you that is trying to scam you p>
Jessica didn’t listen and scoffed. “Scam me? Is that what you’re going with now? Let me tell you, no one is scamming me! In fact, I don’t even need this nonsense branding project. I’ve already landed an investment that will make me bigger than this, and I swear you’ll regret what you did today. Even Julia won’t be on my level anymore p>
Marcus sighed heavily as he listened to Jessica rant.
Unlike everyone else in the room, he had a fairly good idea where all this confidence was coming from.
It was that mysterious Mr. Smith Travis had introduced to her.
Marcus scoffed because it was a scam. he knew.
Looking directly at her, he said, “Are you saying all this because of that man Travis introduced you to? Mr. Smith or whatever his name is p>
Jessica’s expression immediately hardened. she wondered how he knew Smith.
Marcus continued, “Jessica, that man is a scammer p>
The room fell silent.
For a second, Jessica simply stared at him before letting out a mocking laugh.
“A scammer?” she repeated. “There it is. I was wondering how long it would take for your insecurity to show itself p>
Marcus frowned.
Jessica pointed a finger at him.
“You’re jealous. That’s what this is. You’re jealous of Travis and everything he’s doing. You can’t stand seeing him getting successful p>
Jessica continued arrogantly, “Mr. Smith is not a scammer. In fact, if you don’t believe me, go ask Natalie. She’ll tell you exactly who he is. Compared to Mr. Smith, she was practically a nobody p>
Marcus couldn’t help scoffing.
The woman standing before him sounded completely brainwashed.

Whatever promises Mr. Smith had made, she had swallowed every single one without question.
“Jessica,” Marcus said firmly, “I didn’t do anything to sabotage you. And more importantly, don’t waste your money on whatever investment Mr. Smith is proposing. He’s scamming you p>
Jessica froze. A genuine surprise appeared on her face.
How did Marcus know about the investment?
Mr. Smith had specifically told her it was confidential information. A private opportunity available only to a select few people.
Then a thought entered her mind.
It had to be Natalie.
Natalie must have told Marcus everything. She must have explained the investment and its enormous potential. Now Marcus was trying to discourage her because he didn’t want her becoming successful.
The more Jessica thought about it, the angrier she became.
“You are horrible,” she snapped.
Marcus shook his head.
But Jessica wasn’t finished.
“No, you’re worse than horrible. You’re bitter, manipulative, and pathetic. You can’t stand seeing other people move forward in life. Every time someone gets an opportunity, you suddenly become an expert on why it won’t work p>
Her voice grew louder.
“You want everyone around you to stay small because that’s exactly what you are. Small-minded. Small-
hearted. Completely miserable p>
Several people looked uncomfortable.
Jessica glared at Marcus with pure contempt.
“And soon all the women you’re constantly lingering around will abandon you and realize how lonely and pathetic you are p>
with that, she stormed out of the office. the office was still on the awkward atmosphere. looking at Marcus, like he was sort of demon.
At that moment, Marcus vowed to himself, not to interfere with Jessica’s matter again. she should get herself scammed.

The old age man, they were listening to screamed in anger, “What did you mean you haven’t get the book of life already!. I gave you resources and everything you need. yet, you still haven’t find it p>
They bowed and one of them said, “We are trying our best p>
The old man slammed his table on anger.
“Fuck your try, I need this book before anyone else find it out p>
They bowed and nodded, “Okay boss, we will definitely find it p>
Then, the old man sighed and stated, “Also, it high time to finish Langtsone, you should attack the hospital he is now, and kill him. make sure you finish it up this time p>
