Far away in the center in Nauritus City where everyone’s attention was directed.
Jasper sat in his chair and stared blankly a t the big screen as the Harbor Stocks Index dropped
gradually.
Outside, the team that had been busy for almost half a year was now free on a trading day today. It
was such a rare sight.
Some people were mindlessly fiddling with the materials at hand while some were anxiously looking at
the market. However, these people would involuntarily look at the closed office door every ten seconds
or so.
The attitude of the man in the office would determine whether they would save Harbor Stocks or not.
At this moment, Jake and Baz, who came over, were standing in front of Jasper.
“I can decide with one word, but the price to pay is bound to be heavy.”
Jasper finally opened his mouth slowly. H e looked at his two right-hand men and said slowly, “So now,
please give me some advice.”
Baz looked at Jake instantly.
Baz did not dare to speak indiscriminately on such a huge issue.
Jake took a deep breath and replied in a low voice, “Mr. Laine, no one can give you advice.
“The current situation is very clear. There will be sufficient reason and also ample dangers whether we
save it or not. For such a big matter, no one can intervene except yourself.
“But Mr. Laine, there is something I want to say.”
Jake looked at Jasper with scorching eyes that were full of mad admiration. Then, h e said in an
excited tone that he had never used before, “The first time I interacted with you was at Harbor Stocks.
“At that time, you were in charge of the market rescue. I didn’t believe that a person who came from the
mainland in a place where modern finance was not yet popular had the ability and power to
undertake the market rescue. “It was not just me, many people felt the same way too. It could also be
said that
nobody believed in you.
“But what happened in the end? You still
did it.
“Although you said that the ending was not perfect and Rogers still managed to deceive you, it was the
best result in that situation.
“I can say that it was the first time that you showed your strength and talent in front of international
capital.”
“The current situation is the same as the one back then. There is the same danger, the same dilemma,
and the same butterfly effect.
“But why are you afraid now?
“Is it because you have a huge business
now?
“Is it because too many people’s lives and hopes have been entrusted to you?
“Is it because your strength has declined? Or has your talent faded?
“No, not at all.
“It’s because… You’re afraid.”
Under Baz’s horrified gaze, Jake took a step forward, stared at Jasper, and said, ” Mr. Laine, in my
mind you are a living god. This is not blind worship, nor is it because you are the boss who’s paying my
salary, it’s because you always manage to turn defeat into victory again and again in sheer defiance of
the natural order. That’s how you convinced me.
“Right now, you are not the god in my
mind anymore because you have concerns
and are afraid.
“In truth, it doesn’t matter whether you save the market or not, but if you can’t figure this out, you will
never be able to overcome this hurdle.”
The more Baz listened, the more frightened he became. He frantically pulled on Jake’s sleeve, but it
seemed that Jake could not feel it at all. Baz could not bear it anymore and said in a low voice, ”
Jake, what nonsense are you spewing?”
“I’m not spewing nonsense!”
Jake answered in his loudest voice.
“Mr. Laine is just scared. What’s so hard t o admit about this? He’s so scared that he can’t even make a
decision!
“Yes, I joined JW halfway through, but I have studied JW’s growth and development more thoroughly
than anyone else. What did JW rely on to achieve the success it has today?
“It didn’t depend on anything, it’s all because of Mr. Laine’s ability and strategic vision that surpasses all
others by y at least 10 years and his courage to earn a big payoff for a small effort. However, if you lose
this courage, Mr. Laine, what’s JW’s future going to be like?
“The seemingly huge JW actually has a very weak and even shallow foundation. If there is no Mr.
Laine, or rather, if there is no Mr. Laine who was like a god before, JW’s downfall will be just around the
corner!”
If Jake’s previous words were just unruly, then the latter sentence would be a complete overstep of
authority.
Baz’s face turned pale with fright. In JW, who had the courage to tell Jasper
that JW would crash and burn? However, not only did Jake say that, but hi
e also almost shouted it out.
Jasper looked at Jake and said nothing.
However, it was the kind of silent gaze from a superior that put people under immense pressure.
At first, Jake was able to meet Jasper’s
eyes without looking away, but after a
while, Jake’s eyes began to flicker and he
could not help but want to avert his gaze
from Jasper.
At this time, Baz rushed over and said, “M r. Laine, don’t stoop down to his level. This guy is probably
too exhausted, that’s why he’s a little muddleheaded.”
Jasper shook his head, relaxed his body, and leaned back on the chair. He said, “I don’t think he’s
muddleheaded. He’s
soberer than anyone else.”
After taking a look at the big screen, Jasper said, “There are still 100 points to the breakdown point,
you guys should go out first. I’ll contemplate it more.”
Baz almost dragged Jake out.
When the office door was closed, Baz took his hand away from Jake’s back. He grinned and said,
“Jake, your back is soaking wet.”
Jake said angrily, “Try letting Mr. Laine stare at you like that for a minute.
“I think you’ll pee your pants.”
“I know.”
Baz lamented, “Mr. Laine’s prestige is getting stronger day by day. It wasn’t so powerful before, but
when I looked into his eyes just now, I felt as if my heart was being squeezed.”
Jake sighed and said, “I wonder what his decision will be.”
Baz shook his head and answered, “It’s not something we should worry about, let’s just wait.”
Time passed slowly. At this time, even Jake and Baz joined the team that were looking at the office
door every ten or so seconds.
On the big screen, the Harbor Stocks Hansel Index reported position was 8098 points.
The defensive support at 8100 points was broken.
Five minutes later, the Harbor Stocks Hansel Index reported location was 8050 points.
At this final juncture, Harbor Stocks was struggling to survive. It was like someone who was about to
drown and was desperately trying to grab onto the last straws. At the same time, it was also like a
struggling beast, letting out its last wail.
Harbor Stocks was flooding with victims. The blood that was spilled was the blood o f Harbor City
capitalist.
Just when everyone’s heart was feeling restless, the door of the office was finally opened.
Jasper stood in front of everyone.
