As long as Jasper was still staying in Marriott Hotel and was in Brac County, he was not worried that he
would not have the chance to seek revenge.
Jasper did not even see Mark leave and grabbed his room card from the attendant’s hand. When he
walked to the elevator, Jasper said to Wendy, “Get Brac County’s real estate company’s person in
charge here.”
Wendy replied and started making a call.
They had just taken a two-hour car ride to Brac County, and after encountering this incident, Wendy
was no longer in the mood to go out and enjoy herself.
After taking a shower in the hotel, Wendy and Jasper waited for the person in charge to come over.
The person in charge took his big boss’ orders very seriously and merely took a little over half an hour
to get to Jasper.
“Ms. Schuler, Mr. Laine.”
The person in charge, Mr. Lambert, was a shrewd and capable middle-aged man in his early 40s. He
was previously the backbone for Schuler Group, a competent worker. As such, he was transferred by
Dawson to the real estate company to help with opening up new markets.
In Brac County, however, not just his but all of JW Real Estate’s projects had now sunken in a
quagmire.
“Tell me all about JW Real Estate’s situation in Brac County.” Jasper grabbed a bottle of red wine and
poured two glasses, motioning Mr. Lambert to take a seat before speaking.
Mr. Lambert responded to him. Despite Jasper’s young age, Mr. Lambert, who had just left Schuler
Group, knew that the Mr. Laine who was sitting across from him was not only JW Real Estate’s second-
largest shareholder but also Dawson’s future son-in-law.
The real estate company aside, even the entire Schuler Group would belong to him in the future.
In addition to that, Jasper was mostly acquainted with the upper-class social circle. His aura was
growing stronger and stronger every day. It was nothing like what he used to be anymore.
With those two things in mind, Mr. Lambert dared not let his guard down anymore.
“Currently, JW Real Estate is mainly doing a real estate project in Brac County called Landscape City.
“This land has been auctioned off to JW Real Estate before this. It’s located by the sea. The plan is to
build a high-end residential building in Brac County, focusing on the concept of sea view properties.
“There’s a problem though. When the land was first auctioned off, JW Real Estate’s main competitor,
Majestic Real Estate which is also the core industry of Brac County’s Zion family, started using all sorts
of means to hinder our development when they failed to auction for the land.
“They even arranged for a bunch of households to refuse to move from the property, and that hindered
our demolition work greatly. Then there are also local thugs coming over to give us trouble every now
and then. We simply can’t start the project.”
As Mr. Lambert spoke, he wore a wry expression. “Otherwise, we wouldn’t have sought help from the
headquarters in the province either. The Zions are too powerful here. They said that JW Real Estate
will either have to take out 50% of the profits to give them a bonus or do nothing at all.”
“They want half of the profits? Is Brac County’s last name Zion? They’re simply asking for too much!”
Wendy raged.
“What’s Mark’s position in the Zion family?”
Jasper asked suddenly.
He recalled the man he met in the lobby today who happened to be called Mark. Moreover, he had also
mentioned that he was a Zion!
He seemed really confident. It looked like the Zions were really influential in Brac County.
Mr. Lambert replied, “He’s Harvey Zion’s only son, the head of the Zion family. He’s arrogant and
domineering and doesn’t care about the law. No one in Brac County is bold enough to offend him.”
Jasper nodded, then discussed the progress and work arrangements of the entire project with Mr.
Lambert before sending him away.
“Jasp, never condone forces like the Zions!” Wendy said to Jasper.
Jasper smiled and said, “Temple is small but evil winds heavy, the pond is shallow yet wicked cuckolds
too many. The smaller a place, the easier it is to encounter rebellious people. It’s okay, I’m great at
dealing with all sorts of people who refuse to cooperate.”
It was nearly evening after their discussion, hence Jasper took Wendy downstairs to have dinner at a
restaurant.
“We’ll fill our tummies first then go to the beach to have a walk after dinner,” Jasper said to Wendy,
taking a seat at the table.
“And beach barbeque too!” Wendy said with a sweet smile.
“We can’t forget that, can we?” Jasper said with a smile.
The two were still talking when Mark returned. He was standing at the entrance of the restaurant. This
time, he brought two tall and hunky bodyguards with him.
As soon as he entered the restaurant, Mark saw the duo engaging in a delightful conversation. He let
out a vicious and smug smile.
Mark swaggered over to Jasper and Wendy’s table, displaying an insincere smile. “Hey, kid. Having
dinner?”
