”Stand there.”Under Zayden’s terrified gaze, Jasper walked over to him and stood still.“What are you plotting?!”Zayden was tough on the outside but weak on the inside. He had asked with a ferocious look, attempting to conceal his anxiety with his fierce expression.Smack!A slap landed on Zayden’s face.Zayden felt as if a layer of flesh on the left side of his face was about to be slashed off, leaving half of his face feeling numb.He raised his hand and covered his face. Zayden, with his gaze that was frantically brewing with a grudge, stared at Jasper while roaring, “How dare you slap me?!”“The feeling of slapping Young Master Hanks’ face is no different than slapping anyone else’s face.”Jasper flicked his wrist and said calmly.At that moment, Zayden was on the brink of going crazy.“This slap is because you intended to get your hands on Wendy when you’re not supposed to.”As soon as he was done speaking, the second slap came along.The other half of Zayden’s face

At that point, Henry was at the brink of slamming the table and jumping to his feet, feeling exasperated.‘He really is good at putting on an act!’There were three people in total. One of them had surrendered to Jasper, the other was pressurized by Jasper, and the last one was now terrified of Jasper!He was looking at Jasper, and Henry could not help but feel scared and stunned.He thought of himself who was a son from a rich family with the title of being Young Master Law. On usual days, he would court ladies and look down on others. Such a low standard of acting, when compared to Jasper, was lacking far behind—just like a kid’s show.‘When will I be able to put on a show and be able to show off? If Dad and Grandpa know about it, they’ll be sure to praise me!’“Let’s go!”Bob blurted out that comment coldly.Zane, along with Zayden who had just peeled himself from the ground, both looked at Jasper with a gaze that was gleaming with a hatred that had seeped into their bones.

After he was done talking, Henry looked at his father who was laughing out loud. He had a delighted look on his face, and even Anna was wearing a faint smile on her face. At that moment, he said with a very unpleasant feeling, “Why does it feel like both of you know what’s going on and I’m the only fool here?”“Dad, Jasper said he has won but Bob did not lose. He even said that Bob has lots of ill thoughts. What the hell does that mean?” Henry asked.Zachary smiled, and then his eyes were brewing with admiration. Hearing his son’s question, he said, “Actually what Jasper wanted to witness was Bob failing to accept his defeat and insisting to have a rumble in this business war.”Henry was puzzled.Zachary glared at Henry, apoplectic with rage. He said, “Bob has lots of enemies in Harbor City. If the business war broke out, Jasper would have lots of alliances.“At that point, Jasper would need not personally join the battle. He just has to sell off those shares and he would easily b

Jasper was surprised when he received Anna’s call.Jasper, who was having a live stream meeting with Hudson and the rest, hinted for the meeting to end. He got up and came to the balcony of the suite to answer the call.“I thought that the super-rich guy who earns one billion a day wouldn’t answer my call.”After hearing Anna’s teasing, Jasper replied with a smile, “It’s a call from the beauty of the Law family. Even if I’m earning ten billion, I still have to pick up the call!”“I already know about today’s matter. My family gave you high praises for what you did today,” said Anna.“I guess it’s all about fate. I don’t have any good points about myself, the only thing that’s worth praising is that I’m good at grasping the opportunity.”Anna lay on the bed. She twirled her hair with her fingers as she said, “I think my elder brother has changed.”Jasper massaged his forehead and said helplessly, “To be honest, perhaps the part that he’s interested in is different from what we ex

”Are you really someone who became rich via stocks? I heard from my dad that you previously earned a ton from crude oil futures,” asked Anna.“I guess so.” Jasper thought back at his entire process of becoming a successful person. He shook his head and said with a smile, “Actually, I’m not paying much attention to the current stock market, unless I think it has a huge potential, or else, I’ll just carry out a few trades. There’s not much meaning to it.”“Previously, you said that there will be a huge change in the price of Harbor City’s stocks. Is it going to happen soon?!” Anna asked earnestly.Jasper nodded his head. Then, he saw the trading center that they were fast approaching. He said, “Indeed, it’s going to happen soon. It’s just that I wonder how many people are going to go bankrupt during this wave.”At the securities exchange center of Harbor City. Earlier when computers were not widely available, ordinary stock exchanges were done via phone calls to the professionals at

Henry said with a laugh, “Of course, he’s unfamiliar to you. He’s Jasper Laine, from Mainland. He’s the most splendid stock god I’ve ever seen.”“Stock god from Mainland?”Mitch’s tone was a playful one as if he heard someone claiming themselves to be the number one rich guy from the rural area.“Hey dude, people from Mainland know how to invest in stocks as well?” asked Mitch calmly.“There are, but very few,” Jasper answered calmly.“Hahaha…”Mitch burst into laughter on the spot.Then, he waved his hand in an elegant manner and said, “I’m sorry, I really can’t take it when listening to this dude’s comment.”In Mitch’s opinion, perhaps there might be people from Mainland who knew how to play with stocks and were smart enough to earn money, but how many people actually knew how to invest in stocks? The answer was rare among the rarest!“What’s so funny about it?” Jasper looked at Mitch calmly.Mitch shrugged his shoulder and said thoughtfully, “My friend, Harbor City’s stock

Indeed, at the next moment, Mitch spoke up.“Hey Mainlander, you’re calling me childish and even said I’m faking it?!”Mitch stared at Jasper with a dark gaze, his eyes gleaming with an icy cold layer.“You’re Jasper, right? Great, very good. I admire your courage. Since you say that I’m childish and faking it, then do you have the guts to bet with me?“Right now, take out 100 million in cash. In one day’s time, before afternoon approaches, we’ll see who has earned the most.”Mitch stared at Jasper and said coldly, “Mainlander, today, I’ll let you experience that there will always be others who are better than you!”After glancing at Anna, who was just beside, Mitch realized that not only did Anna not look like she had gotten spellbound by his performance, but she was also wearing an expression as if she was worried for Jasper. That made Mitch angrier.“Jasper, don’t play along with him.”Anna came to Jasper’s side. She was not willing to let Jasper agree to it after being prov

”Prize?”Mitch was stunned and could not help but burst into laughter as if he had been made to laugh by Jasper.“Hey poor guy, do you know who I am? You’re talking to me about a prize?“Alright then, you name it. What do you want to bet on?”“Very simple, the one who loses the match will crawl one round around the hall of the exchange center!” Jasper said coldly.As soon as Jasper said it, Henry, who was looking forward to seeing Jasper putting on a show, was surprised—let alone Mitch.To rich brats like them, pride was way more valuable than money.‘Jasper’s bet is like scraping off Mitch’s dignity and pressing it hard on the ground while rubbing on it.’It was the same principle applied as well. If Jasper lost the bet, then he could just give up mingling in Harbor City in the future.However, at that moment, regardless of what bet Jasper said, the Law siblings were not in any position to offer any comment.As for Mitch, he was glaring at Jasper as if he wanted to start off
