“No matter what, you can say no to this, so I am grateful for you,” Jasper said with a smile.
“Really? Since you said that, I want you to treat me to a candlelight dinner. It’s not too much to ask,
right?” Lorelai was gorgeous, and she looked so charming in everything she did.
When she said that, no one at the scene could handle it.
“Ms. Bigelow, you’re so sentimental. Of course, a meal will be fine. When the time comes, I’ll ask the
servers to light candles around us so that everyone here can express our gratitude to you.”
Jasper was the first to come back to his senses, and he answered Lorelai’s question cleverly. All of
them would go to the dinner, not just him. With that, this candlelight dinner would just be a formality.
Jasper managed to avoid ambiguity and awkwardness. At the same time, he also managed to express
his gratitude to Lorelai cleverly.
Lorelai smiled when she heard that. “I always heard that Jasper Laine is a rare genius in Somerland.
He developed the enormous JW at a young age and became the richest man among the younger
generation of Somerland. It seems that you do live up to your name.”
Lorelai was even more interested in Jasper now. “I changed my mind. We don’t have to go to a
candlelight dinner. As for how I want you to thank me, Mr. Laine, I still have to think about it. I’ll tell you
next time.”
“You’re too kind, Ms. Bigelow. You can name anything as long as it’s within my power,” Jasper replied
with a smile.
At the same time, he shook Lorelai’s hand gently.
Jasper did not know if Lorelai did that on purpose or not, but he could feel Lorelai scratching his palm
with her finger. It was ticklish. Moreover, Lorelai’s hands were fair and smooth. After she did this, even
a man like Jasper felt a little shy.
“I’ll go back now. You can contact me if you need anything else, Mr. Laine. I still need to stay a few
days in Harbor City.” Lorelai got up with a smile, leaving a beautiful shadow to the rest of them in the
room.
“Have a safe journey, Ms. Bigelow.” Jasper got up and sent Lorelai off.
After Lorelai left, Henry walked over and said, “Jasper…”
“Stop! Business only.” Jasper knew what Henry was like.
If he allowed Henry to add fuel to the fire, even rumors would soon become fact.
Jasper turned to Lord Alvarado and asked, “How did the talk with your uncle go?”
When Lord Alvarado heard Jasper talking about business, he stopped himself from joking around and
answered, “It went well, Jasper. He agreed immediately when I asked him last night… He and the
deputy director of the Southeast Terra International Bank will help us. That way, we can make sure Half
the Harbor Langdon won’t detect any flaws.”
Jasper nodded and said once he heard that, “Let’s go back then. We only have to wait patiently for
news from your uncle.”
Jasper knew this plan was already perfect. As for whether Half the Harbor Langdon would jump into the
trap, it all depended on fate. He was an old man experienced in the business world, so he had seen
everything. it would not be easy to scam him.
Lord Alvarado and Henry left immediately. After that, Jasper also left after putting on his cap and mask.
***
At this moment, Half the Harbor Langdon went back to his courtyard.
“Joe, you’re back. How was it?” Sawyer asked from the reclining chair in the courtyard.
“I’ve verified that Sangtel does want to invest in this project, but we need to take out another 50 billion
at least to get in.”
Once he said that, the air around them became quiet.
It was such a huge amount, and the current Langdon family and the Atticus family would need to take
out all of their money for this.
