Hearing this, Sarah too succumbed to fury. She pointed an accusatory finger at Jasper and exclaimed with fervor, “Aren't you afraid that we'll terminate our contracts due to your actions?”

Jasper casually shrugged, a nonchalant demeanor adorning his face.

"I couldn't care less about that. After all, the company has no use for disobedient dogs. But if you wish to terminate the contract, be prepared to pay the ten-million-dollar penalty. Only then can you terminate it!"

A ten-million-dollar penalty was no trifling matter for anyone. Sarah's face flushed with anger at Jasper's shameless attitude.
