Jasper looked at Henry and said in a mild tone, “That’s the difference between you and me."Henry was sullen, feeling very upset and itching to punch Jasper in the face, but he had to admit… Jasper had touched a sore spot.He would be nothing if he left the Laws. It was true that as soon as his credit card was canceled, he would have no way to pay for gas. It just so happened that his car was running out of gas now… When he saw Henry’s conflicted expression, Jasper tossed him a bait in a timely manner. “If you follow me and learn from me before I leave Harbor City, then I will not only turn you into your father’s right-hand man but when it comes to trading, no youngsters in Harbor City will be your match either.”"Really?" Sure enough, Henry was hooked.Trust fund babies were humans too. Henry was not naturally bad, nor did he want to be a little bug. If given the chance, he was eager to improve more than anyone.Judging from his past life, the future Henry would come to his sen
The next day, Jasper did not leave the hotel at all.He had been watching Harbor City’s entertainment news channel.Since he had decided to enter the entertainment industry starting in Harbor City, it was necessary for him to learn about this era’s entertainment news.Although he still had memories from his past life, Jasper was not God, hence it was impossible for him to recall what every celebrity did at this point in time.After a long day, Jasper was considered to have gained something because he finally had a preliminary understanding of the entertainment industry! At least his plan to enter the entertainment industry was much clearer now.In the afternoon, Henry came to pick Jasper up for lunch.It was already two o'clock. Others would be having afternoon tea by now.However, it was not strange at all for a trust fund baby like Henry to have lunch at two o'clock.When he arrived at the hotel’s entrance, Jasper immediately saw Henry's frivolous bearing as he stood next to
Although it was meant to be a private room for dining, this was actually a massive suite.There was a dining table in the center of the living room, a couch area behind it, and washrooms and lounges on both sides. This was way better than a five-star hotel’s presidential suite.Sitting on the couch inside were two young men talking and laughing with each other.Jasper was not surprised to see Zane here.Back at Mandarin Oriental Hotel yesterday, Henry had appeared immediately after Zane left. They were from the same circle and both of them disliked him, hence it was not surprising to know that they were plotting something together.However, sitting next to Zane was someone he was familiar with—Zayden Hanks!Jasper was astounded to see him here!When Zayden saw Jasper, his expression was as excited as if he was watching the national football team making it to the World Cup.Zayden had come to Harbor City with the last bit of hope and resources from Sylva, and his greatest backer
“Hey kid, don’t get so arrogant just because you’ve made a tiny achievement. This is Harbor City, not your remote and desolate Mainland. You have to pay a price for being arrogant here.”Zane narrowed his eyes at Jasper, sneering and saying unhurriedly.“You look down on rich kids, huh? You’d better listen up then. I’m a rich kid! My family has assets worth tens of billions of Harbor Dollars and four listed companies, what about you? You really think you can throw your weight around after toying with the Hanks, huh?"Standing next to him, Zayden was thrilled. He was itching to scream at the top of his lungs to express his happy feelings.It felt great to see Jasper being humiliated!“You hear that, Jasper? This is Harbor City! Young Master Zane can squash you with just one finger!" Zayden let out a burst of smug laughter.Next to them, Henry crossed his arms in front of his chest while sitting at the table and eating the fruit on the platter. He had one leg over the other as he w
“What is the b*stard doing?” Zane frowned as he asked Zayden.Zayden let out a sneer and said, “God knows. He’s just trying to seek trouble by struggling with all his means. In a while, let’s see what tricks he has up his sleeve.”After a moment, John’s slightly nervous voice was heard. “All done. Say, which stock?”“Megan Company. Set the current market price as the target price. Purchase all stocks with full positions,” Jasper ordered calmly.His voice was not just heard through the phone to John but even echoed throughout the entire room.“Megan Company? Young Master Lancaster, isn’t that your family’s property?” Zayden turned around, feeling suspicious. However, he found out that Zane was smiling as if he was about to go crazy.“Hahaha, what a joke. How dare this brat from Mainland, who has never even seen the world, think of making a move on my Megan Company? Sure, show me five billion, or else, stop humiliating yourself.”Zayden came back to his senses and said through man
Jasper’s comment made Zane recover as though he had just been suffocated. He took a deep, cold breath into his lungs vigorously.He glared at Jasper. Zane’s eyes were gleaming with terror and astonishment.He clenched his teeth and muttered, “Impossible… You’re just a b*stard. What rights… What rights do you have?!”Never mind that Zane could not wrap his head around why Jasper could do so, but even Henry could not figure it out.‘This man, why is he such a hot-tempered guy?‘He wants to purchase another person’s listed company just because of a disagreement?‘And he f*cking succeeded?’Henry gulped a mouthful of saliva and looked at Jasper with a gaze mixed with shock and… terror.“What the hell is going on? What trouble did you get yourself into outside?!”Bob’s roar was heard coming from the other end of the call once again.Jasper chuckled softly. He took the phone from his hand before Zane could even speak and immediately spoke up to cut off Bob’s barking.“Come over to
At that moment, the door of the room was being pushed open.Under the escort of a few security guards, the famous Bob, who was well known throughout the entire financial world, entered the room grandly.“Dad, you’re here!”Zane finally dared to speak out when he saw his father’s arrival. However, when he saw the exasperated look gleaming in Bob’s eyes, he could only clench his teeth and shift his gaze to Jasper.Bob glanced across the entire room. His gaze was extremely stern as it swiped past Zane. Then, he placed his gaze on Jasper’s body.The moment he saw Henry, Bob revealed an expression as if he was almost smiling. “Henry, is this your friend?”‘Bob is trying to make out Jasper’s background.’Currently, Bob was apoplectic with rage. It was always him who triumphed over others on the share market. ‘How is it possible that I’ll be beaten by others?’The rage and humiliation made him have the urge to just immediately order his security guards to throw Jasper into the ocean
”You…”Zane was terrified by Jasper’s gaze. Subconsciously, he took a step back and fixed his gaze on his father, Bob.“Young man, you’re indeed different from the other youngsters!”Bob stared at Jasper, exasperated. His eyes glittered with an icy cold layer. It had been a while since he was this disgruntled.All this while, it had always been him who looked at the mad expressions filled with grievances of the people he was blackmailing.Since when was it his turn to be in the shoes of those being blackmailed while staring at another who was sitting tall and mighty?Furthermore, it was a person whose age was the same as his son!“Director Lancaster, we’re now having a business discussion. We shouldn’t let others run their mouth.” Jasper was not fazed by Bob. Instead, he was looking at Bob calmly.Hearing him made Bob’s expression darken. His expression that was initially already angry looked even madder now.“What do you mean, young man?”Jasper said after hearing Bob’s comm
