“You kid, Mr. Marlon. Who is this?” Jasper waved him off and turned to look at the young man standing
silently beside Wayne.
“Jose Salazar, Abbylon Inc.’s current CFO,” Jose introduced himself to Jasper politely, oozing with an
air of intellect and strength.
Jasper smiled and shook hands with the Abbylon Group’s greatest hero and said, “It’s nice to meet
you.”
If one were to mention Abbylon Inc in the future, one would immediately think of two people. Wayne
Marlon, and Myles Shon.
Wayne was the founder of Abbylon, while Myles was the President of Softwin Investments who
invested the first large sum to kickstart Abbylon.
This was a relationship between an investor with a keen eye and a promising entrepreneur.
However, everyone seemed to have forgotten that Jose also played an important role in developing
Abbylon. Hailing from a family of lawyers in Nawait, Jose graduated from one of the top ten universities
in the world and obtained a bar license in New York.
It could be said that Abbylon had it only grown to be as successful as it was because of Wayne and
Jose.
This was why Wayne entrusted Jose with the position of Abbylon’s first chief financial officer, CFO. JW
Capital’s own CFO was Wendy, which was a testament to how important the financial officer was to a
company.
Jose was also the reason behind Abbylon adopting the framework of a more modern enterprise at the
very beginning.
“I’ve heard of you, Mr. Salazar. I heard how you gave up the annual pay of 700 thousand US Dollars for
Abbylon’s monthly salary of 500 Somer Dollars,” Jasper said with a smile.
Jose and Wayne were shocked that Jasper knew of such a thing.
“I’m impressed by Mr. Marlon’s charisma,” Jose nodded with a small smile.
Jasper immediately gave up on the idea of pulling an outstanding man like Jose over to his company
when he saw the latter’s expression.
Some people and things were meant to be. Jose and Wayne, for example, were fated to be partners
which no one could pull apart.
Not that it mattered though. With Wayne under JW Capital, Jose would technically be working for
Jasper too.
“It’s the middle of the night, so let’s not stand by the doors. Come on, we’ll talk inside,” Jasper invited
the two into the office.
Instead of using the company lobby, Jasper made a beeline for his own office.
There was no way any employee was still working at this hour, so Jasper made the two tea himself.
After sitting down, Jasper did not waste any time as he began to read the investment report that Wayne
had handed in in advance and which Wendy had placed right in the middle of his office desk.
“You require a financing of 500 million, right, Mr. Marlon?”
Jasper raised an eyebrow and glanced at Wayne when he read the financing request on the first page.
He asked this with a subtle smile.
Wayne immediately replied with confidence, “Mr. Laine, you’ll earn at least ten times this amount.”
“Should we do a VAM then?” Jasper asked.
Wayne was instantly embarrassed.
He had persuaded countless people before, and even Softwin’s Myles Shon had ended up investing 20
million US Dollars after his sales pitch. However, Wayne had never met someone like Jasper, who
acted so unexpectedly.
Everyone could tell that he was bluffing, but there was no way a founder would first trash-talk his own
company when he was asking for investments.
When Jasper suggested a VAM, Wayne realized that there was nothing he could respond with despite
his arsenal of speeches that he had prepared beforehand.
“Mr. Laine, I believe you can take a look at our company’s situation first before we discuss further,”
Jose chimed in understandingly.
“With Abbylon Inc.’s current situation, we fulfill the legal conditions for a VAM.”
Jasper chuckled and said, “As expected, Mr. Salazar. Being brought up in a family of lawyers makes
you rather different. Going straight to legal terms, I see. Alright then, let me take a closer look.”
This was a small win for Jasper in his first clash with Wayne.
