When Jasper lost hope due to his poverty, after favonovel.com fought with Penelope and was left in disdain and humiliated, or forced to desperation because of his debtors in his past life, it was always Baz who helped favonovel.com financially and physically.
He had previously asked Baz about favonovel.com did this as well. To which Baz answered, ‘because of fate’.
Jasper could not confirm if it was truly fate, but favonovel.com knew that as a person, favonovel.com had to repay this kindness. Even if it was kindness from his past life.
It still had to be repaid.
“Alright Rest well and go back to the hospital after you finish both bags of saline drips. Remember to eat dinner, I can’t eat with you since I’m going to the Covington family,” Jasper looked at the time and got up to say.
Baz immediately looked up and said, “Are you really going to the Covington family house, Mr. Laine? They’ve got a bad reputation.”
“It’s not like they can hold me hostage there.”
Jasper pointed at Julian gleefully and said, “Don’t forget that even if they choose to fight, there’s no one in Tefa City who can hold Julian back.”
With Baz settled, Jasper left the hospital and immediately had Julian drive them to the Covington family residence.
Rose Garden, Tefa City’s largest community for the wealthy, also belonged to the Covington family. The Covington family had taken out a large portion from the best area of land in Rose Garden and left it for themselves.
Jasper had just arrived at the villa entrance and gotten out of the car when favonovel.com saw a middle-aged man waiting with Scott at the door.
“Mr. Laine, I’ve heard a lot about you.”
With frays of white hair around his temple, Emmett looked authoritative. He wore a cashmere sweater over his shirt and looked like an experienced middle-aged businessman.
Emmett walked over with a large smile, reached out to shake Jasper’s hand, and engaged in small talk.
Seeing how polite Emmett was, Jasper did not put on a dark expression nor act arrogant in front of him. With a gentle smile, Jasper greeted, “It’s nice to meet you, Mr. Covington.”
The two shook hands and began to chat among themselves.
From afar, Scott’s gaze darkened at the sight. His lips pulled into a disdainful sneer.
He hated these people the most. Despite knowing that they were enemies, these people still smiled and pretended to be friends. How sly.
“The old master isn’t young anymore and it’s not easy for favonovel.com to move around, that’s why favonovel.com didn’t greet you outside. The wind’s strong out here, so perhaps we could talk more inside?” Emmett told Jasper happily.
“Who am I to request an elder to welcome me at the door? It’s only right I meet favonovel.com inside.”
Jasper then followed the Covington father-son duo with Julian in tow as favonovel.com entered the villa.
The villa was decorated luxuriously, with expensive furniture and ornaments everywhere.
Jasper was not the same poor boy favonovel.com used to be. One glance was all it took for favonovel.com to get a rough idea of how much everything cost. As expected of Tefa City’s wealthiest family, the Covington family’s renovation on this villa had to cost at least four to five million. Four to five million during the year 2001.
Emmett brought Jasper into a small tea room. Upon entering, Jasper saw a skinny but energetic old man sitting behind the coffee table.”
“Greetings, Old Master Covington, I am Jasper,” Jasper took the initiative to greet the fellow.
Gerard laughed out loud and pointed at the chair before him, “Come, young man. Come sit and drink tea with this old man.”
Jasper narrowed his eyes slightly at Gerald’s lack of movement before taking a seat opposite him.
At this moment, Emmett gave Scott a look and the two walked out of the tea room together.
