Honestly, in terms of schemes and means, Conrad was by far the most powerful peer whom Jasper
had ever encountered.
If Gale and the Laws had not backed him up this time, he might not have had trouble bringing down the
Hanks family, but he would have had trouble subduing Conrad.
Jasper had a hunch that Conrad would be a huge problem to him.
After suffering a massive blow this time, Conrad was not going to attack rashly anymore, but when he
would attack, it was bound to be an earth-shattering one.
“What are you afraid of? When the soldiers arrive, we’ll use a general to keep them off!”
Dawson patted Jasper on the shoulder and laughed. “If you can beat him once, you can beat him
twice.”
Just then, the office door was pushed open and Wendy walked in.
“Dad, I’m having dinner with Jasp tonight.” Wendy finished her sentence and was about to drag Jasper
out the door.
“We are? I didn’t know that!” Jasper exclaimed in surprise.
“You’ve been working your tail off. Didn’t Julian tell you yesterday that he and his sister wanted to invite
us to dinner?” Wendy was exasperated.
Jasper smacked his forehead and said, “Oh, right! Julian wants to introduce his martial artist friend to
us. I plan to hire a female bodyguard to protect you.”
Wendy used to be very resistant to bodyguards but had now learned her lesson and did not object. She
knew that her safety was no longer her own affairs. She had to think about Dawson and Jasper too, at
least to reassure them.
Wendy said helplessly, “I hope she isn’t the nosy kind.”
After a quick conversation with Dawson at the company, Jasper and Wendy went downstairs together.
Julian and Cathy were already waiting downstairs.
“Mr. Laine, Ms. Schuler.”
Cathy took the initiative to greet them with a bright smile.
“Looking good.” Jasper laughed.
Cathy was recuperating really well after her surgery. Now that her leukemia had cured, coupled with
her stable job, Cathy felt as though her life had changed completely.
She had put some effort into dressing up, and though she did not look gorgeous, at least she looked
healthy and ruddy—like a completely different person.
“Thanks for taking care of me, Mr. Laine, Ms. Schuler.” Cathy thanked them from the bottom of her
heart.
Jasper got into the car and waved his hand with a smile, saying, “You’re more than welcome. You can
call me Jasper. I’m just two months older than you, so it doesn’t really matter.”
“Okay, Jasper,” Cathy said with delight.
“What sort of dinner are you treating us to today?” Jasper asked Julian who was currently driving.
“Now that your earnings have increased, I can finally eat the food you’re treating me to in peace, so
don’t be stingy, okay?”
Julian could detect the humor in Jasper’s words and said with a smile, “I’m sorry to disappoint you
then, Jasper. I’m not planning to take you to a high-end hotel.”
“Oh, please don’t.” Jasper waved his hands, looking appalled. “The food in hotels may be exquisite but
I’ve gotten tired from eating it every day. I’m hoping to eat something ordinary right now.”
“Well Jasper, Ms. Schuler, have you eaten crayfish before?” Julian asked.
Jasper’s eyes lit up.
This was 2001, and crayfish had yet to become popular.
Two years before his reincarnation, around the year 2017, crayfish started becoming insanely popular.
“Let’s eat that, then,” Jasper said.
“What’s crayfish?” Wendy asked Jasper, tilting her head.
She had eaten all kinds of fish and lobster but not crayfish.
“An exquisite supper. In the world of supper, crayfish skewers can be considered the King of Supper.”
Jasper chuckled.
