Zayden was flushing red while Jasper remained unfazed as he ate his dumplings, completely ignoring him. “Jasper is my friend.”Wendy suddenly spoke, looking at Zayden impassively before Jasper could say anything. “I’d prefer if you were more polite to him.”Zayden felt the flames of fury within him burning extremely hot as he watched Wendy defending Jasper. With a scoff, Zayden spoke disrespectfully, “Everything I’m doing is to help push the Schuler Group into the market. Instead of thanking me, you’re here suspecting me?”“The financial investment department has always been under your management and I have no doubt of your abilities. However, there are still things that must be done for the sake of formality when it comes to the board of directors. So, submit an investment report for the department tomorrow to the board for analysis.” Dawson suddenly requested. “Of course… But sir, is someone on the board questioning the work of the financial investment department?” Zayde
Zayden’s expression tethered between gloomy and sunny when he hung up the phone.He felt slightly frantic.Having plotted for over two years, success was right before his eyes. Yet if anything were to happen during such a crucial time, forget about not getting any benefits, but his family would also surely doubt his ability.“Motherf*cker. It’s got to be that b*stard…”Jasper’s appearance flashed through his mind and Zayden punched his fist onto the washbasin.“Then again, so what if you’ve found out? My success is just a moment away and Schuler Group will be mine in no time. And you, Wendy… All you need to do is be my woman, and I can perhaps let you live. Don’t you dare try to die!”After returning from the bathroom, Zayden was no longer in the mood to eat so he made up an excuse to leave.Dawson did not ask him to stay and let him go as he wished.Dawson frowned as he watched Zayden drive away from the field.“He’s growing impatient. There’s no doubt that he’ll try and spee
“I must be growing old.”Dawson could not help but sigh when he found out that Jasper had indeed earned such a large sum of money from the futures market.Jasper smiled and spoke, “You shouldn’t belittle yourself, Uncle Schuler. As a person who has lived through more than I have, you have much more experience than me. There’s much for me to learn from you.”Dawson could not help but feel ashamed in the face of Jasper’s humility.Before his scam was exposed, Dawson had thought that people like Zayden were the epitome of outstanding.The thought of marrying his daughter to Zayden had indeed crossed his mind.Yet now that he thought about it, he found he was really blinded.He had completely disregarded how heinous Zayden’s greed looked on him.Jasper’s outstanding character had easily outshined everyone else he had met before.The young man had a net worth of a few billion dollars, yet he had not let money cloud his mind. Rather, Jasper had only gotten more humble and polite wit
Dawson’s net worth had never exceeded two billion dollars even when Schuler Group was at its best. Yet here Jasper was with three billion dollars in cash.It was not comparable at all.Jasper did not know of Dawson’s current mixed feelings and directly typed in the code for a specific stock.Heavenly Dragon Real Estates.Zayden’s plan had succeeded in the previous timeline, so when nosy people decided to look for leads afterward, they found that after Zayden had scammed the 600 million from Schuler Group, he took the money to buy stocks from Heavenly Dragon Real Estates.Heavenly Dragon Real Estates had a total market value of 4.9 billion dollars.Moreover, the owner of Heavenly Dragon Real Estates was the Hanks family. The real estate company could be considered as one of the Hanks family’s main assets.Under Zayden’s hard work, Heavenly Dragon Real Estates’ stocks managed to triple in value and the 600 million turned into 1.8 billion dollars. Just like that, Zayden became a le
“What? We lost 200 million?”Zayden was instantly infuriated. ‘How did we lose 200 million out of the blue?’The Hanks family was rich, and Zayden was hardly poor, but that did not mean money fell from the skies!Such a sudden turn of events had knocked the wind out of Zayden’s chest like a hammer.He did not understand how his smooth sailing plan had suddenly taken such a sharp turn.The person on the other end continued to mutter, prompting Zayden to shout at them. “Alright, enough! Shut up! Why are you so frantic, we’ll be fine!“Let me take a look first and I’ll update you.”Hanging up the phone, Zayden quickly turned on his computer.Although he had mentally prepared himself for what he would see, the sight of skyrocketing K-line followed by the downward plummet of stock prices still stunned him.Zayden’s expression darkened, and it was gloomy to the point that a storm seemed to be brewing between his brows.“Motherf*cker! Someone’s obviously out to get me!” Zayden opene
The stocks retail investors owned acted as reminders. If they end up pissing the dealer off and the dealer decided to hammer the market again, it would be over for everyone. Therefore, all the retailers decided to undersell the stocks they had, leaving some larger organizations to observe the scene. They still had no idea who this investing party that had just come in and entered a fund of over tens of millions of dollars was. As such, organizations decided to be more careful as to not act impulsively. “The other party’s raising the prices as well, Mr. Hanks. That's weird, I thought they’d continue dumping stocks.” The other person’s words from on the other end of the call made Zayden frown. “It looks like they’re targeting me, then.”Zayden clenched his jaw. “They’re accumulating stocks!” “The 80 million will be used up in no time if this keeps going on, Mr. Hanks. We’ve got to come up with a plan.”“Motherf*cker!” Zayden suppressed the urge to bring parents into
Running red lights as he sped to Hanks Residence, Zayden had yet to catch his breath when he was summoned by Sylva, his father and the head of the Hanks family, to the study.“I just received notice this afternoon that there were unusual fluctuations with Heavenly Dragon's stocks. Someone is trying to control the market price. I believe you’ve already fought them?” Sylva stated as he looked at Zayden impassively.As Zayden’s father, no one knew better than Sylva of his son’s actions.Embezzling Schuler Group, for example. Without Sylva’s permission, there was no way Zayden would have the guts or the resources to do so.As well as when Zayden did not hand over the 600 million he had taken from Schuler Group and invested it into Heavenly Dragon instead. It was something Sylva had allowed.Yet evidently, the current turn of events had exceeded the expectations of the father-son duo.Taking a big gulp from the cup a servant had brought in, Zayden then relayed the entire situation to
“You’re not going to hammer the market again?” Wendy asked, astonished.“If even you assume that I’ll hammer the market, then there’s no doubt that Zayden will think so too. He has to save Heavenly Dragon Real Estate, while all I want is to crush him.“Not to mention that I’m not interested in playing in such a small pool with him. Heavenly Dragon Real Estate is hardly any high-quality stock. It’ll only be a matter of time before inflated stock prices would plummet. He has no shot at saving this market.”Dawson agreed with Jasper’s words.Despite not understanding how the stock market worked, doing business was built on the same idea. When a company did not have so much to provide, it did not matter how people hyped it, for the company’s market price would not exceed its performance by too much.After all, investors were not fools.“Alright then. That’s it for today, we’ll deal with it again tomorrow. Come back with us for today, Jasper, you can stay at our home.” Dawson’s words
