Zayden smiled through his rage. “Alright, alright, nobody in the entire province dares to talk to me like
that,” he said in a level tone.
“Zayden,” Dawson said, “Young people shouldn’t act so rashly. It’s the same anywhere you sit. Come
here, sit beside me,” he added.
Although Zayden was extremely displeased, he could only suppress his anger since Dawson had told
him off. Anyway, it was more embarrassing for him to stand there.
After taking his seat beside Dawson, Zayden raised his gaze and pinned it on Jasper.
“Given your arrogance, you must not be an ordinary person. How dare you talk to me like that? Tell me,
which family are you from?” Zayden asked.
“The Laines,” Jasper replied curtly.
“The Laines?” Zayden pondered upon it. There were not any prestigious families called the Laines in
the province. No one in the province would dare to talk against him like that. Was he from overseas?
“Don’t think about it anymore. My family isn’t prestigious or wealthy. We’re just an ordinary family,”
Jasper said nonchalantly.
The expression on Zayden’s face changed immediately. “Are you making a fool of me?” he asked
angrily.
“How am I making a fool of you?” Jasper questioned him.
Zayden glared at Jasper and sneered. “Don’t be too arrogant, you b*stard. It takes skills, not slick-
talking, to make it in this society. If you act so rashly, be careful of not even knowing how you fell to
your doom in the end.” He was seething in anger.
“Also, know your place and leave Wendy immediately. She’s not someone meant for a lowly b*stard
like you. Why don’t you take a look at yourself instead?
“You should go and ask around, then you’ll know what kind of family the Hanks are in the province.
You’re just a mere ant in front of me,” he added.
“That’s enough!” Wendy burst out suddenly.
“Zayden Hanks, there isn’t any sort of relationship between us. Who I choose to befriend isn’t any of
your concern either.”
Wendy looked at Zayden who had an overcast expression on his face. “You tricked my father into
investing in the financial sector. Where did all the money go?” she questioned him at once. Zayden
remained impassive, but waves were crashing against his heart.
Wendy’s reaction did not surprise him. However, Dawson was remaining silent without saying anything
either. This made him feel all the more cautious.
In a logical sense, his plan was flawless. It was impossible for anyone to find out about it. He was so
close to succeeding.
By then, Schuler Group would be his. Wendy Schuler would belong to him as well.
However, Dawson’s attitude was ambiguous right now. He simply watched Wendy, who was
interrogating him, without saying anything. He was obviously waiting for Zayden to give him an
explanation.
Zayden immediately suppressed his thoughts and said, “Wendy, you’ve misunderstood. What do you
mean by ‘trick’?”
“Uncle Schuler is the best businessman in the province. What makes you think that I have the ability to
trick Uncle Schuler?
“Or do you think that it’s easy for someone to trick your father since he’s old now?”
“Don’t change the topic. Answer me. Where did the invested money go?!” Wendy said coldly, still
staring straight at Zayden.
The smile on Zayden’s face gradually vanished. “As you said, the money has been invested. Of course,
it’s being used to fund some projects,” he said matter-of-factly.
“Those so-called projects are simply the paper companies you created. You simply handed in a project
plan and transferred all the money to your paper companies, right?” Jasper suddenly chimed in.
Zayden was not a fool as well. He was capable of coming up with such an extensive scheme and had
even succeeded in fooling Dawson.
He came back to his senses at once.
It was impossible for Dawson to be suspicious of him all of a sudden. Besides, Wendy was clueless
about all the internal details. The only person who could have done so was the rash, arrogant young
man sitting beside Wendy.
“Hey, are you the one spreading lies to everyone? Are you seeking death?! Huh?!”
All of a sudden, Zayden stood up and yelled at Jasper angrily while pointing at him.
