Jay stared at George and said faintly, "You seem very impatient don't you, Mr. Severe?"

Jay was clearly just a guest, but his proud and arrogant bearing made him look more like an emperor looking scornfully at all living beings. He was looking down at George as though George was nothing but an insect in his eyes.

This upset the lofty and superior Severe family members greatly. Did Jay think that he was still the young master of Imperial Capital who ruled the whole world? Did he not see how terribly he had fallen off the pedestal lately due to the fall in his net worth?

He no longer held power in Ares Enterprises, whereas Grand Asia was pressured and blacklisted by major tycoons. More importantly, he could no longer use both his legs.

Here he was, refusing to accept the current predicament he was in. He was on the brink of ruin with no hopes of freeing himself from this impossible situation. Nevertheless, a starved camel was still bigger than a horse. A wealthy man who had become less rich than he was before was still richer than a poor family. No matter how bad Grand Asia was doing, at least

before it declared bankruptcy, its former glory itself still seemed too far-fetched for Severe Enterprise.

George still saw Jay as a formidable man, so he still had scruples against blatantly treating him with contempt.

His lofty and showy missus was different. Anne had always wanted to make up lost ground for her baby girl in front of Jay, so she mocked Jay like an iron fist in a velvet glove. "What are you saying, Master Ares? Severe Enterprise is able to survive the last two years all thanks to your father's support, so how could we be so bold as to treat you rudely?"

In other words, she was saying that Severe Enterprise now relied on Jack Ares, not Jay Ares. Why should they show him any respect?

Jay's thin lips tugged into a mocking sneer. "Woman, a n ignorant knows no fear."

These words had trampled Anne's prideful heart into the soil.

She was a noblewoman, but Jay criticized her for not knowing anything about business. Was he not insinuating that she was just an ignorant country bumpkin?

The look on Anne's face turned sullen at once.

Jay's patience had run out. It was as if he had cast an escape-proof net and it was finally time to close the

net.

"Mr. Severe, perhaps I should jog your memory. More than 100 of Severe Enterprise's high-end intelligent products' chip technology is patented by Grand Asia and we will now claim several years worth of patent fees from Severe Enterprise. Do you have any opinions about that?"

George could no longer sustain his indifferent and unconcerned expression. This was a substantial patent fee they were talking about.

Jay said to Finn, "Can you calculate the amount for them?"

Finn skillfully recited, "That's 58 billion a year, Mr. Ares. When do you want to start calculating Severe Enterprise's patent fee?"

As soon as Finn asked the question, George became exceedingly nervous.

In the past, Grand Asia was extremely accommodating to Severe Enterprise. Even the patented technology was provided to them for free. It had been so many years that George almost forgot that they still owed Grand Asia such a huge favor.

At this moment, he simply hoped that Jay still had some affection for Angeline and could count a few years less.

However, Jay could be an indifferent and heartless man when he was bent on being ruthless. He said leisurely, "We start collecting the day they start using i

t."

Finn said, "That's ten years ago then. If we calculate it in this way, Severe Enterprise should pay Grand Asia 580 billion in patent fees."

As soon as the substantial amount was announced, both George and Anne's complexions turned ashen.

At this moment, they realized that they still could not afford to offend the Ares family even though the Imperial Capital's young master was down and out.

Even so, the bloodthirsty and fierceness that Jay showed next further rubbed salt into their wounds.

"Also, since Mr. Severe looks down on Grand Asia so much, I think we should stop supplying Grand Asia's patented technology to Severe Enterprise from today onward."

George might not be a prodigy in business, but his intelligence had improved greatly after Jay taught him a lesson.

He knew at this moment that if Grand Asia prohibited Severe Enterprise from using their patented technology, all Severe Enterprise's products would have to be discontinued. How was this any different from bankruptcy?

After analyzing the pros and cons, George's face turned pale.
