“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

That explained why despite them being in the province, the Bentley showroom was nearly empty and void of customersJasper and Wendy’s arrival had caught the attention of a few salesmen, but they decided to leave them alone when they realized that the two were mere youths.After all, a mere Chevrolet was hardly something any ordinary person could afford, let alone a Bentley that cost more than millions of dollars.Not that Jasper minded, for he saw the Bentley Mulsanne he had been yearning for a long time the moment he walked through the door.One of the greater things about brands like Bentley and Rolls-Royce was their classical designs.That was why the Bentley now did not look too different from the Bentley of 20 years later.From the timelessly classical cylindrical headlights to the powerful air intake grille, to the double-winged Bentley logo that represented honor and wealth, it was an iconic brand design that was unforgettable to any man.“Are you two interested in buying

Next to them, Wendy frowned at the saleswoman’s attitude and choice of words.“Isn’t your service a bit too unwelcoming? How can you even work in sales with such an attitude?”“Oh?” The saleswoman side-eyed Wendy and scoffed. “Do you not know where you are? This is the Bentley showroom! Every car in here costs a few million dollars!“I’ve got to admit that you have quite the taste, making a beeline for the Mulsanne the moment you walked in. You can’t even afford this no matter how you look at it, so why do we have to be polite to you?”“How do you know that we can’t pay for it?” Wendy was irked.The saleswoman guffawed as if she had been told a great joke. “I’ll swallow this towel if you can afford this, how’s that?”Then, the saleswoman waved her hand to shoo them away irritably. “Enough is enough. You’ve already seen it, so stop standing here like an eyesore. Seriously, how do you even have the dignity to come in here with how poor you look?”Once she was done speaking, Jasper

Since Jasper was not customizing his car with additional accessories, he was soon done with the procedure and could directly drive the car home.The automobile industry in the year 2000 was not as disgusting as it would be in the future, for bundled insurance had yet to be a thing. Once Jasper got the keys, he was allowed to drive to the DMV for his license plate right away.Jasper took the car keys from Xena and got into the car as the saleswoman trembled to stuff the towel into her mouth.Flicking on the headlights, he drove the car off its spot and left the showroom. The entire time, Jasper did not seem to check if that saleswoman had really swallowed the towel or not.Dashing across the roads in his car worthy of almost seven million Somer Dollars, Jasper was utterly exhilarated.While a car this luxurious was not well-known among ordinary people in this time and age, its aura was non-dismissible. Any discerning person could tell at a glance that it was an expensive car.Ja

Hearing Jasper’s words, Wendy asked curiously, “What does he want?”“What a professional manager whose highest ambition is to realize his ideals needs is a stage where he can display his true talents.” Jasper smiled. “Coincidentally, that’s exactly what I’m offering.”Wendy did not understand completely, but it seemed like something great.Instead of bringing Wendy to Jack’s office, Jasper went to a coffee shop with her in tow instead.Having thoroughly read Jack’s autobiography about his past life, Jasper knew that this coffee shop was the place Jack loved the most while he worked in Waterhoof City. It was a place he was sure to drop by after work every day.“A cappuccino and a Jamaican Blue Mountain, please.”After ordering, both Jasper and Wendy went to sit by the window.Wendy wanted to ask why Jasper did not go to the man’s office, but since Jasper was not saying anything, she suppressed the urge to ask.Wendy was now aware of how Jasper did things, including the fact of h
