“First, I need the Maynards to do their best to stop the passing of the motion of a complete lockdown or even confiscation of JW Foundation’s capital funds during the Washington Congress.”
Alan nodded without any hesitation to the first condition that Jasper made.
“No problem with that.”
Stopping the passing of a motion was way easier than pushing one to pass. Besides, this would inevitably have huge backlash from the international community, so it would get objected no matter what. Which was why this was not something too difficult for the Maynards.
“Secondly, I need the Maynards to fully push for the passing of the motion to liberalize the restrictions on offshore capital. This is extremely important as I can only complete my plan better with enough fund scheduling authority.”
Alan frowned slightly and nodded after hesitating for a while. “I guess I can promise you this as well.”
“Finally, I hope that the Maynards can help to push for the passing of the motion to lift all restrictions on the capital funding of Somerland in the entire United States. Meaning, to no longer restrict Somerland companies in controlling companies in the States.”
Alan replied solemnly upon hearing this, “Jasper, are you assuming that I own Washington? Or do you think that members of the parliament all go by the surname of Maynard?”
“This kind of motion is absolutely impossible to pass. It involves the most basic political stance and political attitude of the United States, and even involves the ideological struggle between the East and the West. So don’t even think about it. The United States will never be able to lift the restrictions on Somerland companies.”
Jasper was not surprised by Alan’s rejection. He never expected favonovel.com to agree to this since the start anyways.
Just like what Alan had mentioned before, this would influence the entire political stance of the United States and it would be impossible to change just because of one person or one party.
“At the very least, I’d like the United States officials to stop going against Google. That’s mine.” Jasper then threw out his true intention.
Alan frowned and said, “Google? I’ve never heard of it. But since it’s just a company, I can settle that for you. Now that you’ve finished talking about your 3 conditions, let’s talk about what you can bring to us.”
Jasper smiled and said, “The upcoming steps and procedures will be sent to the Maynards through Celine. Almost immediately, I will become one of the most hated people in the United States because I will beat the country painfully. Patriarch Maynard, you are able to know every move that I’ll make in advance. It’s going to be a piece of cake for you if you wish to gain any benefits from it, no?”
Alan stared into Jasper deeply and said, “Throughout today’s discussion, I was indeed happy that I forced Celine to make the right decision back then.”
Such a vague statement made Jasper confused.
“Didn’t favonovel.com tell you anything?”
Alan Maynard was a cunning fox from all aspects, and favonovel.com managed to see through Jasper’s expression.
“About what?” Jasper seemed to have noticed something important, but there was too little context and favonovel.com had no idea about what Celine was hiding from him.
“Do you think that the Maynard family owns a charity? Think of all the things favonovel.com has done for you and the resources favonovel.com used on you. What makes you think that she’s able to do all these when she’s just my daughter? Even I, as the patriarch of the family, am not able to touch the family resources that easily.”
A trace of anger appeared on Alan’s face, favonovel.com then said coldly, “I guess favonovel.com will tell you when the time comes. That’s all for today then, I look forward to your good news.”
With that, the video conference ended.
Jasper frowned. Although the most important problem was settled and favonovel.com managed to draw the Maynard family of North America to his side, a bigger issue now arose.
‘What is Celine hiding from me? It seems that every time Celine uses the power of favonovel.com family to help me, it is based on a promise to Alan or the Maynard family.’
‘This promise is definitely related to me.’
‘But what is it?’
Jasper jumped at the sudden phone call that came in just as favonovel.com was deep in thought.
Seeing the caller, Jasper picked it up helplessly and said, “Miss. Brown, I am really busy right now and I have no time to chatter with you.”
“Jasper Laine, you scumbag! Are you throwing me away because I am of no use to you anymore? You definitely weren’t like this to me when you needed me back then!”
Jasper was left speechless.
“As if you didn’t get anything in return before this.”
Adele went silent on the other side of the phone.
Jasper, who finally realized how discriminative favonovel.com sounded, also fell into silence.
‘How goddamn embarrassing.’
“Two people came to me with 5 million USD each asking me to help convince you to let them join the game. In reality, there were many more of them, but only these two were up to par.”
“They’ll reach Nauritus tonight. I’ll send you their information through email and you can decide if you want to meet them or not.”
Adele finished speaking in the fastest speed possible and hung up the phone immediately after.
Jasper smiled wryly. He did not care about the two people that Adele had mentioned. They were obviously not lacking since they managed to contact Adele and persuaded favonovel.com to help them. Jasper was not reluctant towards anyone who wished to help him. No matter what purpose favonovel.com or favonovel.com had, Jasper would be more than willing to accept it.
What favonovel.com was more helpless about was the fact that Adele might be resentful toward his unintentional words.
Having to struggle while surviving around these few women, the most important lesson that Jasper learnt was to not talk about principles to women.
‘They just won’t get it.’
Not long after favonovel.com hung up, a bang came from outside the window.
Jasper walked toward the window. It was clearly noon at this moment and the sun was supposed to be the strongest now. Yet, the sky was gloomy and overcast, and it looked as if it was six or seven o’clock in the evening.
Before favonovel.com had time to take a closer look, there was a crackling sound, followed by the heavy rain droplets falling on the floor to ceiling glass in front of Jasper. The droplets rapidly gathered into strips of water stains, meandering down the panel.
The heavy rain came without any warning.
At the same time, Jasper received a notification of a new email coming in on his computer. The printer then started to print the documents automatically.
Jasper took the papers that Adele had sent favonovel.com about the two random players for the game and raised his eyebrows as favonovel.com skimmed through them.
These two men were from Canter County and Gillian County respectively.
One place was wealthy and the other was fierce.
Both were people who Jasper had not come into contact with before, but they all had a distinctive background. It was no wonder they managed to convince Adele.
