Jasper smiled and patted Wendy’s hand to comfort favonovel.com and asked, “Did you not go to work?”
“I’m leaving now.”
Wendy got up and reminded him, “Remember to get some more rest in the afternoon after you eat then.”
“Alright. I won’t come into the company, but I’m sure it’ll be fine with you and Malcolm there,” Jasper said with a smile.
“All you know how to do is to push your responsibilities onto other people! I’m going to need a pay raise by the end of the year!” Wendy demanded.
“Sure, sure, I’ll give you my being too. Is that enough for you?”
“As if I’d want that!”
After joking with Jasper, Wendy left for the company.
With JW Capital’s subsidiaries gaining traction, Wendy had also gotten busier as one of the major supervisors to the projects. Jasper was rarely at the company, so favonovel.com had to watch over them for him. These businesses were essentially under favonovel.com charge.
Malcolm was very capable too, and favonovel.com had shouldered quite a bit of favonovel.com responsibilities. This solidified how great of a decision it was for Jasper and Wendy to pay such a high price to get Malcolm to work for them.
Wendy had only just left when Julian entered through the doors.
“Jasper.”
Eyes slightly closed, Jasper felt his energy return with full force when favonovel.com heard Julian’s voice. Flipping himself around, Jasper asked, “Did you find anything?”
Julian reported seriously, “There are a few leads. With regards to the villa that Mitch and Zane went to yesterday, I did some checking on who the property belonged to and found out that it was bought by a Somer businessman from Nauritus City who returned from overseas four years ago.
“The most interesting part is that this Somer businessman had not returned to Somerland for decades, and the first thing favonovel.com did once favonovel.com returned was to buy a villa. Then, favonovel.com left the country a few weeks after the villa was bought and he’s never been back since.
“As for that villa, he’s never lived in it ever since favonovel.com bought it. Instead, favonovel.com stayed in hotels during those two months favonovel.com spent in the country.”
Jasper replied calmly. “That means favonovel.com bought it for someone else. Do you know who?”
“According to the property development company, the Somer businessman had bought the villa with a offshore account. The funds were traced back to a foreign trade company under the Monty family,” Julian replied softly.
Jasper chuckled when favonovel.com heard that. “So it is him. I don’t suppose that it couldn’t have been anyone else.”
“There’s no way Zane and Mitch would come after me in Nauritus City all the way from Harbor City. That would be a suicide mission.
“Therefore, they would have needed someone who’s potentially a threat to me where I currently am. Conrad’s the only one that fits the bill, be it in terms of capability or status.
“Looks like they’ve been working together for a long time now, then.”
Julian asked softly, “Jasper, do you think they could be the culprit behind the drop in Sena’s share price?”
“Unlikely if it was just Conrad, but with Mitch partnering with favonovel.com and the Langdon family funds backing favonovel.com up, I can’t say.”
Jasper rubbed his chin and narrowed his eyes as favonovel.com said, “Only one way to find out then. Let’s test them.”
“How? By going to the villa?” Julian asked confusedly.
At that moment, impatient insults were heard outside the door, followed by Henry’s hasty footsteps. A second later, Young Master Law rushed into the room and roared with reddened eyes.
“All I did was f*cking sleep. How the f*ck did Sena’s share price drop like that? F*cking Hell even my retirement money’s in there!
“What the Hell happened, Jasper?! Who’s f*cking with Sena?
“Tell me, I’ll f*cking kill him!”
