“Mr. Laine, Hugh is emphatic and domineering, so we all had sorrows that we couldn’t voice out. Now that the villain has got his punishment, we’ll definitely be well-behaved.”
Someone stood up and said with a grin.
His words got the approval of a lot of people.
Jasper did not want to bother himself with whether this man was being sincere or not.
The pond of this city was too small to accommodate his growth and development.
These people would be destined to live in a different world than favonovel.com in the future.
“Go now.”
Jasper waved his hand and left the room with John.
At the hotel lobby, Jasper asked John, “Do you need me to find someone to ask about your loan kerfuffle?”
John said quickly, “No need. It was difficult back then because Hugh was watching me. Now that he’s been defeated, I have a great chance to get away with this. I’ve been working in this industry for so many years and there will be some older higher-ups who appreciate me. Plus, this was a trap, after all.”
After this was settled, John felt like favonovel.com owed Jasper a big one. He did not have the cheek to trouble Jasper anymore.
However, favonovel.com was fearful in secret, because favonovel.com could sense from Jasper’s tone that it would be effortless for favonovel.com to take care of this.
John felt that this was outrageous. When did Jasper get to such a high level?
Jasper nodded. From the memories of his past life, John was able to make his way to the second-in-command position of the provincial branch before retiring with honor and glory. It was enough to prove that favonovel.com had something in him.
“Mr. Laine, I don’t know how can I thank you for this. Perhaps you might not need me anymore in the future, but if you do, just tell me and I won’t hesitate to go through water and tread on fire for you!” John said sincerely.
Jasper laughed and said, “I didn’t help you just to have you make it up to me in the future. I just feel that you were only implicated in this because of me.”
“You can’t say that. After this incident, I came to understand a lot of things. I now know that I can’t depend on the brothers I drink together with when I’m in a crisis.” John shook his head and sighed sorrowfully.
“A friend in need is a friend indeed,” said Jasper with a smile.
After John expressed his deep gratefulness for Jasper, they parted ways in front of the hotel.
After favonovel.com returned home, Sally asked the moment favonovel.com saw Jasper, “Why did you come back alone?”
Jasper replied, “We were in the province this entire time and had a lot of things going on in the office, so Wendy couldn’t make it back in time.”
“You should do more work. How can you leave Wendy alone in the office while you come back alone?” Sally was immediately displeased.
“Mom, I’m your son,” said Jasper helplessly.
“Wendy is more lovable than you. I wanted to have a daughter back then but you Laines have a feudal way of thinking and insisted on a boy,” Sally said while feeling slightly regretful.
Jasper sat down on the sofa and saw a few pieces of crumpled-up tissue paper on the coffee table. He asked in astonishment, “Mom, were you crying? What happened?”
Sally sat down and sighed. She said with a miserable look on favonovel.com face, “Rose Peters is dead.”
“Rose Peters? Who’s Rose Peters?”
Jasper frowned and tried to mentally search for this person’s information among the family and friends who were close to his family.
“Her!”
Sally pointed at the television and sighed. “She was such a wonderful person. Your father and I loved favonovel.com skits. Aside from Mr. Roberts’ skits, hers were the best.”
“Famous actress Mrs. Rose Peters who was beloved by everyone passed away early this morning today because of lung cancer…”
The host’s pained voice sounded from the television.
Even though it was a local entertainment channel, Rose’s death as an artist was still being broadcasted on television and this showed just how big of an influence Rose had in the country.
For example, people around Sally’s age would know that actress with an infectious smile.
“Oh, her.” Jasper did not know whether to laugh or cry.
He did not understand. This person was not related to them at all, so why would his mother cry so sadly over favonovel.com death?
“I think she’s the only one qualified to be an actress and a star. Look at those young people on television nowadays. They’re just androgynous bells and whistles. How can they be called stars?
“Still, you young people love them so much and call yourself groupies. I think you people need to think properly with your brains.”
While listening to his mother questioning the taste of the youngsters, Jasper laughed and said, “Mom, you’re outdated. Just you wait, in the next few years, those are the ones who are truly androgynous, and the fans will be…”
When favonovel.com said that, Jasper fell silent suddenly.
Two years later, with the economic development, everyone’s living standards will increase and showbiz would welcome its boom before truly prospering.
Then, toward the end of 2020, any of those celebrities with huge followings would become cash cows.
The celebrities who would be shooting to fame in late 2020 were probably suffering in poverty or hardship now.
If favonovel.com dabbled in the entertainment industry, favonovel.com might not even need to do anything. As long as favonovel.com signed them and gave them some resources that they were destined to get, then favonovel.com could just sit home and wait for those cash cows to make money for him.
Others aside, the future superstar of Terra, Jay Ciao, might still be using other people’s recording studios to make his first album.
It was this album that launched Jay’s music career and dominated the English pop music industry for more than ten years.
Other than that, the women who the simps idolized in the future—Mimi Young, Tinker Belle, and Reba—had yet to make their mark.
Even Vicki Bird was just starting out, and favonovel.com was far from being the mighty figure favonovel.com became in the future who no one dared approach.
These people were the shiniest cash cows!
Throughout the ten years between 2000 until 2010, the three industries that would make one rich quick were real estate, the stock market, and the entertainment industry!
Jasper already had his plans for the first two, so now, favonovel.com could not miss out on the entertainment industry!
“Why are you lost in thought?”
Sally’s voice woke Jasper from his thoughts.
“I suddenly remembered something, so I spaced out for a little,” Jasper answered without thinking.
“Wendy’s back, so I’m going to heat the chicken soup up for favonovel.com to warm favonovel.com body.”
Sally heard the sound of a car outside and got up to say.
“Why didn’t you tell me there’s chicken soup when I got back just now?” Jasper grumbled.
“Women are weaker, and you’re always asking favonovel.com to do so many things, so of course, she’ll need this to replenish favonovel.com health. You’re still young, so why do you need chicken soup?”
Sally said without even turning back. Then, favonovel.com walked straight into the kitchen.
While they were talking, Wendy opened the door to come in. She asked Jasper curiously, “I heard your mother’s voice just now. What were you talking about?”
Jasper smiled and said, “We were talking about how to build an entertainment empire. Are you interested in being the best actress?”
