Gale was evidently not in a good mood, so he hung up the phone right after.
It was almost time to clock out once the two calls were done.
Jasper went to fetch Wendy and the two soon returned home together.
Dawson was also home when they arrived at the house.
“You’ve helped me a lot with that 1 billion worth of funds, Uncle Schuler. But I might still need a little longer before I can pay you back next month,” Jasper spoke as he walked into the house with Dawson.
In reality, Jasper had borrowed the 1 billion investment into Abbylon from his future father-in-law…
Dawson waved him off and replied, “Take your time. You know how it is with the supermarket industry. The last things we lack are stores and cash. Not to mention that this money is going to belong to you two one day. I’m just handing it to you early.”
Jasper chuckled and did not decline. “Alright, then I’ll take this as an investment. Give me another month and I’ll make some big money. I should be able to pay you back two-fold if nothing goes wrong.”
While Dawson did not mind giving Jasper 1 billion Somer Dollars, his eyebrows still arched when he heard the younger man’s claim.
Dawson knew how Jasper had made his first fortune, so he immediately understood what Jasper meant by making big money.
“Be careful. The financial capital industry is no different from a huge legal gambling table. No one can promise to win forever,” Dawson reminded.
Jasper smiled and said, “I know. I won’t act without absolute certainty.”
Dawson nodded when he heard this. “Good. I’ve never had to worry about this when it comes to you.”
The family of three and Tiffany soon had dinner together.
After dinner, Jasper then called Tiffany to the study.
“I still have to wash the cutlery, Jasper,” Tiffany spoke softly.
Jasper replied with a crescent-eyed smile, “That can wait. You seemed preoccupied over dinner, as though you had something on your mind. You can always talk to me about it if you want, or your big sis Schuler if you’re uncomfortable talking to me about it.
“Also, have you decided on the thing I suggested to you last time? About going to university?”
Tiffany’s finger gripped her clothes when she heard him and she replied softly, “This is actually what I’ve been thinking about… I want to go to university, Jasper.”
Tiffany mustered up the courage to say the last bit.
“But I feel like I’m owing you too much, Jasper. I, it makes me feel uneasy.”
Jasper sighed lightly at Tiffany’s words.
“I understand what you are feeling, but I told you before, I’m just lending the money to you, and you’re going to have to pay me back in the end. Therefore, you don’t have to feel like you owe me.”
Tiffany replied in a conflicted tone, “But why are you so good to me when you have no reason to, Jasper?”
“Would you believe me if I said you reminded me of someone from the past?” Jasper asked.
Tiffany was stunned and she blinked in slight confusion.
“Don’t overthink it. Since you’ve already decided, then I’ll arrange it for you. I’ll be taking a trip to Waterhoof City tomorrow anyway, and I’ll be in contact with Hoofmorn University. So, I’ll help you contact them for your enrolment,” Jasper smiled.
Tiffany gaped in shock. “Hoofmorn University? That’s the fifth-best university in the country, Jasper. Is that even possible?”
“Superpowers exist in this world, and one of them is called having money.” Jasper chuckled.
