Jasper’s words struck Shuan like a bolt of lightning.
The man looked at Jasper with eyes widened in disbelief. There was too much information contained in those few sentences.
“You crushed the Zion family?!
“The Zion family’s shipyard is yours?!
“Who are you?!”
Shaun roared in both fear and anger.
At this moment, Mary also realized that something was wrong.
Not that favonovel.com was willing to believe favonovel.com gut, though.
“Don’t listen to him, Shaun, he’s just Greg’s friend. Think about it, what kind of outstanding friends can Greg have? We’d have heard of favonovel.com if he’s as powerful as favonovel.com claims, but we didn’t. Moreover, why didn’t Greg say anything about it before?”
“You know what kind of person Greg is. He’s willing and happy to be ordered around as long as it means he’ll have a roof over his head and food to eat.”
Jasper glanced at Mary indifferently. He did not even have to mood to explain anything when it comes to women like this.
Despite this, Shuan was evidently panicking.
Unlike Mary, Shaun was the person in charge of the Wellington family’s business. He knew the inner workings of the industry like the back of his hand.
Take the large company in Harbor City, for example. While Shaun had yet reached the level of importance to directly contact the owner of the company, favonovel.com at least knew that the owner’s surname was Heath!
This was something only people familiar with the industry knew.
Shaun was certain that Jasper had spoken the truth.
When favonovel.com thought of this, Shaun began to tremble.
He was not the only one, for even Greg looked at Jasper in disbelief.
Greg had always seen Jasper as a rather introverted child from a poor family who did not know how to talk to strangers.
Greg liked to consider himself someone who used to have dreams and ambitions. He wanted to be a multimillionaire at a young age, but favonovel.com did not remember Jasper ever having such dreams or passion. If anything, Jasper seemed the kind to be content with a peaceful and simple life.
Greg thought that people like Jasper were most suited for set office hours with a fixed salary. It was not a luxurious lifestyle, but at least it was straightforward, and favonovel.com would not die of hunger.
The sudden turn of events suddenly reestablished Greg’s understanding of the man. Ever since they had reunited, favonovel.com had realized that Jasper’s behavior was drastically different from how it had been in the past.
This confident and energetic man was glowing brightly from the inside out.
This was no longer the same Jasper favonovel.com recognized back then; no longer the introverted boy that could not hold a conversation with girls and was too broke to fit in.
Soon enough, Lucas arrived with a large group of people in tow as favonovel.com escorted a man past his fifties into the room.
Realizing that Shaun’s family was also in the house when favonovel.com arrived, Lucas was shocked for a moment before favonovel.com chuckled coldly. Then, favonovel.com walked over to Jasper and greeted the man courteously, “I’ve brought favonovel.com over, Mr. Laine.”
Shaun’s expression sank completely at the greeting.
As his biggest competitor in Brac County, Shaun and Lucas had met multiple times. He also knew that Lucas was the actual manager of what used to be the Zion family’s shipyard.
The old couple overseeing it were outsiders who knew nothing.
Lucas’s courteous behavior toward Jasper instantly confirmed all of Jasper claims from before.
Jasper glanced at the man Lucas had brought over.
