“You think that he’s too powerful and I have no other choice but to surrender to him.”
Jasper had a playful smile on his face.
“It might seem like that, indeed.”
“But what I’m about to do might result in a very severe outcome, and I alone can’t affect the entire market.”
“If not him, I thought about asking the little prince instead. I just didn’t have an opportunity before.”
“But now that we have Lord Alvarado willing to join in, someone just as powerful as the little prince. It might seem like I’m surrendering to him, but aren’t we also using his strengths at the same time?”
Jasper patted Julian’s shoulder again and said intently, “Things are rarely as simple as they seem.”
“Think about it. Sometimes taking a step back and enduring it doesn’t mean I’ve surrendered and admitted defeat. Maybe I’m just leaving more room to run up so I can jump even higher heights.”
Julian fell into thought when favonovel.com heard Jasper. After a long while, favonovel.com suddenly realized something.
“I don’t understand these things, but if you say it’s good then it’s good.”
Jasper felt helpless.
…
Since Jasper’s and Lord Alvarado’s dinner, the situation in Tefa City had immediately changed drastically.
The Covington family continued to lose in every fight against JW, and they did not seem to have any ability to defend themselves.
Unlike what passer-by expected, the Covington family’s resistance was not effective, and no one even tried to help them.
The Covington family that once dominated and controlled Tefa City was now facing grave danger with no one to support them.
People more attentive on the matter realized that Scott, the fuse leading to this conflict, had disappeared.
Some said that Jasper had employed hitmen to kill Scott, while some others said that the Covington family had decided to send Scott away to safety. After all, even if the Covington family was defeated, they still needed Scott to continue the bloodline.
Outsiders continued to guess and create rumors of what happened, but no one knew the true specifics.
This conflict lasted for an entire half month.
The Covington family was still fighting with everything they had, but everyone could see that they were doomed to fail. It was only a matter of how soon.
This day, Downstream Investment Company resumed business. More accurately, it should be JW Financial Investment Co., Ltd.
This company was established with JW Capital as its parent company and would take on all investment businesses from JW Capital. Thus leaving JW Capital to be in charge of fundamental businesses like angel funds and risk investment.
“With the establishment of the financial investment company, you’ll be responsible for all JW’s investments in the financial industry, including stocks, securities, funds, bonds, futures, and more.”
In the meeting room, Jasper looked at the group of confident senior executives of the new company in front of favonovel.com intently.
A majority of these senior executives were capable employees transferred from the investment department in Nauritus City. The others were talents brought over from hunting companies.
After a short pause, Jasper continued, “You all should know how much money the company spent for this, so I have high expectations for all of you.”
“I hope that under Mr. Willis’ lead, you are all able to truly make this company into something great in the future. As I said before, everyone present will benefit from having good business. But if the company makes a loss, there’s not much of a point making do with basic salaries, correct?”
The meeting seemed to affect the people positively on the first day this new company was established.
After a few simple sentences, Jasper handed the stage to Baz.
He was the newly employed person in charge of this new company. Logically and emotionally speaking, Jasper had to give the man enough respect and power. How the company would actually develop depended on Baz now.
Jasper walked out of the meeting room and planned to return to rest when Julian reported something to him. The Covington father-son duo had asked to see him.
Jasper chuckled before favonovel.com had Julian bring them to the receptionist room.
