Mitch shrugged when he heard Fabian and said, “Mr. Atticus, maybe we really are being too sensitive. After all, Jasper isn’t some god, and he can misinterpreted the trend. Didn’t we also think that he had some ulterior motive before as well?
“But there’s no way war could break out in the United States right now, and unless aliens attack tomorrow and causes the global financial system to crash, there’s no way he’d get to turn the tides.”
“We’ve investigated for so many days but came up empty handed. Not only us, but even the people on Wall Street are confused as well. Maybe it’s really as the others’ think, maybe he did go crazy.”
“Misinterpreted the trend?”
Fabian scoffed and said, “If the situation was a complicated one, then I’d believe you if you tell me he made the wrong decision. But even an idiot can tell that the market is booming. There’s no way this can be explained as a simple mistake.”
Mitch was stunned for a moment too and asked instinctively, “Then, what should we do now?”
“Nothing.” Fabian’s expression turned indifferent.
“We continue with the original plan. If he invests more, then we’ll follow. I’d like to see how much money he can take out!”
It was 9th September 2001 when Fabian and Mitch decided on this plan. It was a sunny day and there were no clouds in the clear sky.
The following day, Henry arrived at Southeast Province.
“Hey hey hey! Young Master Law is here!”
Henry stood in the airport in high spirits.
When he saw Jasper standing far away and looking at him with a crescent eyed smile, elation graced Henry’s features and he immediately grabbed his bag before running over.
“Don’t say anything, here is all my money!”
Henry handed Jasper a bank card excitedly.
“There’s 100 million inside.”
Jasper was shocked. “100 million? How did you get your hands on so much money?”
It was an open secret how ‘broke’ Henry was, so Jasper was shocked to discover that he could amass 100 million.
“Hehe, I mortgaged my plane, yacht, and a house,” Henry said with a grin.
Jasper could not help but ask, “And you’re not afraid that you’ll lose your money with me?”
“What’s there to be afraid of?” Henry did not care and waved Jasper off generously, “I bought the plane with the money I earned from you. If anything happen, I’ll just pretend I never made any money with Sena before. If that’s not enough, then I’ll start working in my family businesses. I’ll leech off my dad.”
“Not bad. This mindset is commendable, ” Jasper praised.
Henry’s expression immediately fell and his true natured showed, “I’m just saying that for the sake of it. Don’t you dare make me lose my money, or I’ll be mocked to death by others when the bank takes my plane.”
“Don’t worry. There’s no way I’d let you lose your money when you’ll be needing it to marry the love of your life,” Jasper joked.
Henry shook his leg as he sat beside Jasper in the car.
“I heard my dad say that Fabian’s been causing you trouble?” Henry asked.
Jasper nodded and replied, “His methods are crueler than I thought.”
“Don’t worry. After this is over, I’ll screw him over with you,” Henry said energetically.
Jasper replied heavily, “Fabian’s not like other people. Don’t act rashly.”
Henry arched his brow and said, “What’s with that? Are you looking down on me? I’m known in Harbor City as a n evil trust-fund child, but ordinary people don’t hate me. Do you know why that is?”
“Why?” Jasper was curious.
Harbor City’s gossip did not follow the mainland’s strict guidelines, so Harbor City reporters confidently dared to report every bit of news they could get their hands on. Scandals involving wealthy families were always more interesting than the last.
Yet, it seemed like Henry had never been put in a bad light by these entertainment reporters.
“Because while the other trust-fund children bully ordinary people, I only bully these trust-fund children. Hahahaha…”
