“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

Dawson making such a suggestion was an evident act of reciprocation so that Jasper would be benefitted as well.The most crucial part of the plan was connections, for it involved the bank, the contractors, and official dealings. These were all things that Jasper could not perform as he was still a rookie in the field.Dawson, however, was different.Perhaps, Dawson was doing more than just returning the favor. Perhaps there was something deeper to it.Jasper glanced at Wendy who sat next to him. She seemed secretly elated about something he had no idea about. Slowly, he found himself understanding what his future father-in-law’s intention was.He was using his own connections to pave a path for Jasper.“Sure. We can talk about this officially another day,” Jasper replied.Dawson nodded in satisfaction. There was no need to explain himself too much when he was talking to someone smart, for they caught on pretty quickly.The car sped away, leaving the heart of the city and enteri

Watching Wendy's fleeing figure, Jasper's eyes were filled with mirth.The most fantastical period between a man and a woman was during this blurred and ambiguous time.Jasper had already regarded Wendy as his own to love, and Wendy showed no intention of rejecting. There was no way this relationship would meet the same fate as in his previous life—over the moment it began.Wendy did not reappear before Jasper until dinner, but even then she still dared not look at him.It was precisely such shyness that was akin to a lotus fluttering in the cold breeze that made Wendy look particularly enchanting.As the two talked and laughed at the dinner table, a servant interrupted them with the arrival of a guest.The message had just been relayed when the door of the villa was pushed open, and a loud couple walked into the living room of the villa."Are you back already, Wendy?" the well-dressed, heavily accessorized woman asked in surprise when she saw Wendy in the dining room.Wendy re

“Da-Dawson… You’re back.”Uneasiness bubbled in Luna and Zach’s hearts at the sight of Dawson.After all, the couple was only so well off today thanks to Dawson.“Why wouldn’t I be back? You came here to look for me, didn’t you?” Dawson spoke angrily.He understood if outsiders wanted to trouble him for their own personal gains now that there was a small issue with the group.Yet to think that it was his own family, Zach and Luna, who would be the first to come knocking on his door for money.There was no way Dawson would not be furious. Their actions had chilled his heart.Luna’s expression shifted between gloomy and bright as she clenched her jaw. “We just want to make a living, Dawson. Can’t you just pay the credit first…”Dawson threw a check at Luna’s face, interrupting her.“Here. 1,130,000! Take it and leave!”Luna picked up the check. With the money in hand, she found no need to suppress the things she wanted to say. She clenched her jaw in infuriation. “This is where

“That’s how fatherly love works, weighted and grand!”Jasper comforted Wendy, saying, “Everything will get better after this.”“It’s the final fight tomorrow… isn’t it?” Wendy stared at Jasper with a burning gaze.Jasper nodded. “Tomorrow determines whether we win or lose, whether life or death awaits us.”“We’ll win, though, won’t we?” Wendy asked seriously.Jasper smiled. “Yeah.”Wendy was greatly relieved by that reply and beamed. “Come on. I’ll bring you to your room.”The following morning after breakfast, Dawson cleared his schedule for the day and sat next to Wendy behind Jasper.“Their transfer of assets got stopped since we managed to find out about it early, so the most crucial thing now is this battle of stocks. If we lose here, then it’s over for Schuler Group. But if we manage to win, then it’s smooth sailing from here onward.”Dawson patted Jasper’s shoulder and reassured him, “No matter what happens, don’t give yourself too much pressure.”Seeing that there wer

“The bait has been bitten, now it’s time to rein in the net. Zayden’s in for a big loss this time.”Jasper stated indifferently as he stared at the screen.By his side, Wendy stared at Jasper’s side profile besottedly.It was said that a man looked the best when he was buried in work. At that moment, in Wendy’s eyes, Jasper was glowing…In just two days, the stocks in Jasper’s own account as well as both of Dawson and Wendy’s sub-accounts had arrived at a frightening amount.Coupling that with how he had cornered Zayden yesterday and pulled the stock price to its limit again just now...As of that moment, Jasper’s trap had been set.All he had left to do was give Zayden the illusion that he was here to fight to the death, that he wanted all of Heavenly Dragon Real Estate’s stocks.If that was the case, then he would become the dealer of Heavenly Dragon Real Estate’s stocks and Zayden would lose all decisive authority.That was why Zayden could not give up.It turned out just

While Jasper had taken all of Zayden’s funds, without Jasper watching over the market, Heavenly Dragon Real Estate’s stocks crashed.It was a downward plummet.Forget about the retail investors, but even organizations were stunned.No one knew what Heavenly Dragon Real Estate had done to offend such an investor that they crashed its market.“How much did you earn?” Wendy leaned over. Some unruly flyaways caressed the tip of Jasper’s nose, and they brought along the delicate fragrance of a lady.Wendy did not think that far, for she was only interested in looking at Jasper’s backstage.“Deducting the administrative costs, it’s a total of… 4,578,888,542.85 dollars.“I started with three billion in funds and ended up with around 4,570,000,000 in my account. It’s safe to say that I’ve wrung Zayden dry.”Jasper sent 600 million to Dawson’s account before transferring the rest of the money back into his own.Counting his earnings this round, he had earned almost 900 million after ex

Sylva’s roar added to the layer of sweat over Zayden’s forehead.“Someone with this kind of ability definitely has to be some big shot, Dad. I’ll find him!” Zayden frantically replied.Sylva scoffed. “The family has lost a billion dollars because of this. Even without you mentioning it, there’s no way the family will forgive this person. Stay low for the time being. Don’t linger around the province either. Go take a vacation.“Dawson is hardly an easy opponent. Our family will have to prepare to deal with his revenge. Do you understand what I’m trying to tell you?”Zayden refused to believe what Sylva was implying. “He can’t possibly think of attacking me.”“How do you think Dawson managed to make a name for himself among so many outstanding people and got a good hold on the title of the richest man in the province for so long? Let me tell you, everything you know about Dawson Schuler is only what that man wants you to know.”Not wasting more saliva, Sylva hung up on Zayden.Zay
