Rose knew that he must have gotten wind of this, so she did not hide any longer. "I gifted myself to him, which was how I got this contract." Zayne,

Jay took out his phone, typed out a line of text, and held it up in front of Zayne.

"Rose, let's meet up!"

"Alright, text me where and when."

Rose agreed easily.

"Oh, okay," as Zayne said that, Jay ended the call.

Then, he snatched Zayne's phone over and said with a forceful tone, "Lend me your phone."

Zayne reached out to snatch it back. "Then what am I going to use?"

He handed him a wad of dollars. "Go buy a new one."

Zayne felt helpless. "I have many clients on my phone. What happens if they call me?"

"I'll answer the calls for you."

"They're going to discuss job partnerships with me. Are you going to do that for me as well?"

Jay opened the contacts page, gave it a look, then gave Zayne a condescending gaze. "You must've contacted

them for a long time, but they're all ignoring you, right?"

Zayne frowned. "Please don't stab me in my wounds, alright?"

The other man replied, "Do you know why they're ignoring you?"

"Because the Severe family's reputation has dropped?"

"Unrelated."

Zayne widened his eyes. "Then, what's the reason? Don't tell me that they don't like my face? My nose is still a nose and my eyes are still eyes. I look spirited and cool, unlike someone who's not reliable... What reason do they have not to work with me?"

Jay took Zayne's phone and pocketed it. "Give me your phone and I'll tell you."

Zayne looked dissatisfied. "Could I not have given it to you? You've taken it already."

He replied, "The development time for these businesses is not long. All they want is stability, so they won't change partners that easily."

Zayne understood some of it. "Which means I can't do anything, then?"

Jay replied, "Giving up that easily? No wonder the Severes failed so quickly."

Zayne glared at him... "Can you say something useful?"

Jay then said, "Find out their network of partners, then draw it out. Find their weakness and attack them. Once their chain is broken, you can then reconstruct your own network."

Hearing this, Zayne came to a realization. "This makes a lot of sense!"

He instantly praised Jay, saying, "No wonder Angel also had a knack for business. That's because you taught her well."

Jay's face darkened. "I didn't teach her well enough."

If he knew that she would be this mischievous, then he should not have taught her all these and let her be like all the other girls who were all beauty and no brains. He should have kept her as simple as they

came.

Zayne said, "Don't be like that. Has my sister done something to make you unhappy? Be a little more patient with her!"

Jay ran through his thoughts. Ever since she came back, it seemed like she had done anything to make him happy.

However, when he thought that this was the consequence of his previous actions, he could only accept all of her wrongdoings and move on.

Zayne laughed and left.

A thought suddenly crossed Jay's mind. He called out to him, "Zayne Severe-"

Zayne turned his head around.

"Are you committed to Josephine?" Jay looked at him with judging eyes.

Zayne's eyes glowed.

In the next instant, Jay threw a punch on the other's nose. "Break up with her, immediately."

Zayne's nose was bleeding as he vengefully looked at Jay and hollered at him, "You're the husband to my younger sister. By right, you should be calling me 'Big Brother'. Is this how you treat your big brother?" "You deserved it."

"You still have to look at who you're beating up. Aren't you afraid of my sister seeking revenge on behalf of m e if she replaces out you beat me up?"

Jay retorted, "If it wasn't for her, I'd have your life today."

"Alright, alright, I promise you. When I get back, I'll break up with the Ares family's second lady. Is that alright?"

"Now leave."

After he chased Zayne away, Jay sent a text to Rose using the other's phone. '8 o'clock tonight. We'll see each other at Ray of Light.'
