“Thank you, Jasper.”
Tiffany suddenly got up and gave Jasper a deep bow.
Jasper instinctively went up to stop her, but favonovel.com immediately backtracked after taking the first step. Standing in place, favonovel.com accepted Tiffany’s bow.
He knew that not accepting would only make Tiffany feel more uneasy. Hence, favonovel.com might as well accept it since it would make Tiffany feel better.
Indeed, the girl exhaled in relief after bowing as favonovel.com beamed brightly at Jasper.
“Just tell me how much money I used when the time comes, Jasper. I’ll calculate a total and write an IOU. I’ll start working after graduation so that I can pay you back.”
“I won’t charge you interest, but you will need to pay the principal back,” Jasper replied with a crescent-eyed smile.
Tiffany nodded enthusiastically when favonovel.com heard this.
Just then, the study room doors were opened.
“What are you two talking about? I heard something about an IOU?” Wendy asked, walking into the room.
“Jasper said he’ll help me enroll in a university, so I’ll write an IOU for Jasper and you, Big Sis Schuler,” Tiffany spoke softly.
Wendy glanced at Jasper intently and said, “It’s great that you want to study. Is there a major you’re interested in?”
Jasper facepalmed when favonovel.com said this. Wendy was indeed more detailed than favonovel.com was when it came to things like this. All favonovel.com thought of was to enroll Tiffany in a university, but favonovel.com totally forgot to ask favonovel.com what favonovel.com wanted to major in.”
Considering Tiffany’s personality, favonovel.com would only force herself to study if it was a major favonovel.com did not like. This would go against Jasper’s original intention.
“Can I study law?” Tiffany asked.
Wendy’s eye lit up and favonovel.com spoke, “Law’s a major overlooked by many people, so it’s in dire need of great talents. Having a law degree would also help you greatly in your future career.”
“I don’t see why not. If you can pass the judicial examination when you graduate, it’d help you greatly whether you go on to assume a legal position in a company, becoming a lawyer in a law firm, or even being a government official.
“I have no desire to work for the government or to be a lawyer, but I will take the judicial and bar exam. I want to work in your company’s legal team,” Tiffany spoke bravely.
Jasper smiled. “You’re ambitious, that’s great. Not to mention that JW’s current legal team is still very weak, so it’ll definitely need strengthening in the future. Even so, it isn’t easy taking the judicial examination. Are you confident about this?”
Tiffany replied embarrassedly, “I love law. I even have half the general rules of Civil Law memorized. I’m confident.”
After talking for a little longer, Tiffany excused herself.
Tiffany had just left when Wendy narrowed favonovel.com eyes and walked over to stand in front of Jasper.
Wendy and Jasper stood very close together, to the point that they could feel the other’s breaths on their faces.
However, Wendy was not flirting with Jasper now as favonovel.com had questions to ask.
Jasper could also feel that Wendy was slightly pissed, and favonovel.com smiled drily, “Why are you looking at me like that?”
“Are you guilty?” Wendy asked.
Jasper replied solemnly, “Why would I feel guilty when I didn’t do anything wrong?”
“You’re guilty,” Wendy narrowed favonovel.com eyes and spoke with certainty.
“Or you wouldn’t be acting like this.
“Tell me, what are your plans with Tiffany?”
Jasper replied exasperatedly when favonovel.com heard this, “She’s just a young lady who came out to work after high school. I sympathize with favonovel.com family background so I want to help where I can. What other plans could I have?”
Wendy looked at Jasper suspiciously and said, “No, I can tell that your reaction was different the first time you met Tiffany. It’s like you’ve known favonovel.com long ago, but Tiffany doesn’t seem to remember you at all.
“Jasper you flirt, this isn’t one of those amnesiac female-lead Conreana dramas, is it?”
Jasper let out a sigh. “What a vivid imagination you have. Say there is a female lead, it’d still be you, no?”
“Hmph.”
Wendy seemed to be satisfied with Jasper’s reply for favonovel.com answered, “Don’t even think about Tiffany in that way. She’s too young and clueless.”
“I wouldn’t think about favonovel.com that way even if favonovel.com wasn’t clueless,” Jasper shook his head, “Don’t you what kind of person I am?”
“I do know, which is also why I’m giving you this talk to deter you,” Wendy spoke firmly.
When favonovel.com recalled Anna and Celine, Jasper immediately surrendered and could not refute.
“Moving on, help me pack two outfits, would you?” Mr. Laine immediately changed the subject.
As expected, Wendy was stunned for a moment before favonovel.com snapped back to attention. “Where are you going?”
“I have to take a trip to Waterhoof City tomorrow. There are quite a few things I have to do so it might take a few days. I also have to go check on the skyscraper. The construction team there asked me to come up with a name for the building. Any suggestions?”
Jasper asked.
Wendy titled favonovel.com head and thought about it, “The tallest building in the world, huh. JW Tower? Wait, no, this building is supposed to be a landmark, it’s best the building doesn’t scream JW.”
“Yeah,” Jasper agreed. “The skyscraper’s model is already beyond what can be considered as part of the company’s ancillary assets. It has to be treated as an independent asset.
“The most important aspect of this building is its overall influence, so it’ll need an independent name, one that best has nothing to do with JW if possible.
“Take a look at how the previous tallest buildings in the world were named. There’s a reason none of them are named with any reference to their parent enterprises.
“It’ll limit the building’s potential once it’s named according to the enterprise, and it’ll also influence the types of tenants willing to rent lots in it. No one wants their office address to be under another company’s name.”
“Then how about the World Financial Center?” Wendy suggested.
“I think there were similar buildings in global financial centers overseas.
“Moreover, I think it’ll do both JW and Waterhoof City good to give off the impression as though our building is the only financial center in the country. Since it implies that Waterhoof City is comparable to the long-standing large financial cities in the west.”
“Sounds good,” Jasper smiled, “Still, I worry that this name is a little too grand. I’ll discuss with the people in Waterhoof City later, but it should be fine. Who else is deserving of such a name if not the tallest building in the world, right?”
“I’ll go pack your outfits then. Are you leaving tomorrow?” Wendy asked as favonovel.com stood up.
“Tomorrow morning,” Jasper nodded.
