Jasper sat unmoving in his seat even after Conrad had left.
Wendy arrived soon after. After he stood and exchanged seats with her, Jasper beckoned to a waiter to
order a table’s worth of food.
“Conrad has pretty good taste. The food at this restaurant is quite good.”
As Jasper spoke to Wendy, he ladled a helping of her favorite chicken onto her plate.
Wendy blinked as she gazed at Jasper, asking, “How did the discussion go?”
Jasper smiled and said, “It went just as I expected it to, but there were also some surprises.”
He did not keep anything hidden from Wendy as he relayed the details about the conversation he had
with Conrad, making sure to emphasize the request Conrad brought up.
Wendy had a solemn expression on her face as she nodded and said, “The request for a loan must not
be agreed to!
“After all, no matter who is responsible for applying for the loan, the bank will have to assess the
company’s assets regardless. Once the loan is approved and becomes an overdue loan, the bank will
seek out the lender and legal representative, which would be you and the new company.
“Both parties need to repay the loan, but Conrad Monty would not have to shoulder even an ounce of
responsibility.”
“That’s right,” Jasper said calmly as he spat out a bone. “This is where Conrad’s schemes came into
play.
“It might seem as if he’s given me all the power, but with great power comes great responsibility. By
becoming the legal representative, I’ll be able to manage the company.
“However, I’ll also be the first to be blamed if anything were to happen to the company. If he takes out a
loan of 2.5 billion dollars and fails to make the repayments, the bank will come looking for me instead of
him.”
Wendy said angrily, “What a despicable person he is! We must not make any promises to him.”
“I didn’t reject him. I told him I needed to send some professionals over to conduct some field research
and he said he would take good care of them,” Jasper said with a smile.
Wendy said angrily, “How could you have made a blunder at such a critical stage? If he’s already made
that many preparations, there’s no way your experts can find anything when they arrive at the scene.
They’ll tell you that everything is perfectly fine.”
Jasper shrugged and said, “I know, but I’m only doing this to placate him.”
Wendy stared confusedly at Jasper as she frowned and asked, “What are you planning to do?”
Jasper chuckled and said, “Conrad’s plans are about to be revealed at this point.
“He first obtained fake aluminum ore, which he’s using to swindle my funds from me. Everything will
seem fine at first when I’ve invested enough money to set up the new company. We’ll even be making
huge profits.
“However, as time goes on, I’ll suddenly discover that the mine has run out of ore to be mined. Thus,
that would cause a breach of contract, and the state-owned enterprises who have already signed
contracts with us will file a lawsuit against us. Then, the bank will also file a lawsuit when the loan
repayments are overdue.
“When that happens, I either have to swallow the bitter truth of having to pay the state-owned
enterprises for breach of contract and the bank interest on the loan principal, or I can deny everything
and fight a lengthy legal battle with both parties. However, I will be on the losing side no matter which
option I choose.
“As for Conrad, he’ll end up becoming the winner with the 2.5 billion dollars he loaned.”
Wendy gritted her teeth as she listened to Jasper. “How can such despicable people exist in the
world?! Jasp, we should ignore him and make his plans fail!”
“I won’t cough up a single cent, but this scheme…”
Jasper had a meaningful look on his face as he placed a drumstick on Wendy’s plate. Smiling, he said,
“We’ll take things one step at a time.”
At that very moment, Conrad had already arrived home.
He was sitting in the study and having a video call with Kennedy who was in Harbor City.
“Things are about 80% complete at this point.”
A look of delight appeared on Kennedy’s face when he heard what Conrad said.
“Not bad. I knew things would go well with you in charge.”
However, Conrad shook his head when he heard the praises and said, “Mr. Kennedy, we can’t get too
excited just yet. We must wait for Jasper’s funds to be processed.”
Kennedy nodded and said, “Alright. One must not be impatient if one wants to achieve big things. I’ll be
accompanying my father to America in two days. Thus, you’ll be reporting any updates regarding this
matter to Mitch.”
Conrad frowned slightly as he said, “Maybe I should report directly to you instead, Mr. Kennedy?”
Kennedy said softly, “Conrad, Mitch has made progress since the last time. We’ve already planned
everything out, so all he needs to do is follow the instructions I’ve given him. Nothing will happen. Get
in touch with me if you need any difficult decisions made.”
When Conrad heard that, he sighed softly and said, “Alright, I understand.”
After hanging up, the corners of Conrad’s lips curled upward into a cold smile as he muttered to
himself, “Stupid. The dad is just as stupid as his son.”
Then, Conrad took his phone and dialed another number.
“Start buying out Sena’s shares now, and remember to take each step carefully. This time, I’m going to
turn on Jasper and cause him to suffer his most major loss yet!
“Who cares about the W. Langdon family? They’re just bait for me to tempt Jasper Laine with.
Everyone will only realize they’ve been fooled by me when I reveal everything!”
