Jasper never liked to be escorted whenever he went out as he found it very troublesome. Moreover, they were in Nauritus City in Somerland, so there was n o need to arrange bodyguards to follow them.
Because of this, Jasper let Julian drive. Fallon sat in the front while he while Wendy sat in the back, and the four of them boarded one car to Julian’s house.
If Julian and Fallon could still run into
danger in Nauritus City, then having a
team of bodyguards would be useless.
To shorten his daily commute, Julian lived in a residential area that was not far from the company; it was only three to five kilometers away.
However, the environment of the
residential area…
“Why do you live here?”
Jasper asked with a frown as he looked at
the trash all over the place and old buildings in the community.
Julian said embarrassedly, “I usually won’t be home too much, so a place with a bed that can keep out the wind and rain will suffice as a home for me.”
“What nonsense. You used to be alone, but now you have a family. How can you make your wife suffer with you?”
“Well, yes, I’m also discussing buying a new house with my wife. I’ll leave these matters to her. I don’t care about that,” Julian replied quickly.
Jasper thought for a while and said, “You can choose one of the properties developed by our own company. You can choose a villa, high-end residence, or even a penthouse. I will go back and tell the people managing this so that they will save some good ones for you to choose from.”
“Thank you, Jasper,” Julian replied. Having been with Jasper for so long,
Julian was already used to this.
If Jasper wanted to give him something, o r extend him any benefit or convenience, i t would be useless for Julian to refuse if Jasper was serious about it. In this
scenario, would be better to accept it with peace of mind.
What was more, in Julian’s view, this favor would just allow him to select a better house and purchase it at staff price, which this was completely in line with the rules.
He did not expect that after Jasper informed the real estate company of this, that the company would not dare to ask for the payment.
Julian had already told his wife about the visit in advance, so when the car arrived downstairs, the four people in Julian’s wife’s family were already standing downstairs waiting.
Looking at the car approaching from the distance, Julian’s wife’s younger brother whispered, “Ginny, Julian’s boss should just come over if he wants to, why do you want us to come downstairs to greet him? You even asked our parents to come downstairs. Was this really necessary?”
Julian’s wife, Ginny Monroe, glared at her brother and said, “His boss is a real VIP. How would a kid who just graduated from a university like you know how rich and powerful he is? Don’t talk when you see him later. Just stand by the side
obediently and don’t upset him,
understand?”
Ginny’s younger brother snorted and remained unconvinced. “So what if he has money? I want to start a business in the future, and I will definitely be a big boss.”
Ginny shook her head as she looked at her confident younger brother. When she first graduated from university, she knew that she would earn a lot of money from starting a business, and was certain that she would be sought after and envied by people with an annual salary of at least several hundred thousand. After being worn down by society, she no longer had such ignorant thoughts.
She knew very well that her younger brother would understand this truth
within the next two years.
By this time, the car had stopped in front o f Ginny’s family.
Julian got out of the car first. After he nodded to Ginny, he did not even bother greeting her before immediately trotting to the back of the car to open the door.
Upon witnessing this scene, Ginny’s younger brother was even more upset.
“Hmph, I originally thought that Julian was a man with backbone and ability, but i In the end, he’s just a henchman.”
“Shut up!”
Ginny gave her brother a stern look and scolded him.
At this moment, Jasper and Wendy had gotten out of the car.
Ginny, who was also an employee in JW, approached them hurriedly and greeted in a low voice, “Mr. Laine, Ms. Schuler, hello.”
Even though she was an old employee of J W who had been working there for several years, it was impossible for Ginny to have access to Jasper and Wendy with her current position. After she established her relationship with Julian, she had only met Wendy once.
At this moment, Ginny was still very nervous when she saw Jasper, the boss who was rumored to be almost godlike in the company with countless of adoring fans looking up to him.
Jasper could sense Ginny’s nervousness at a glance. He smiled and said, “You don’t have to be so courteous, and you don’t have to call us Mr. Laine or Ms. Schuler, You are Julian’s wife so you can just call m e by name, just like Julian.”
“Uh-huh…”
Ginny nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. At this moment, she almost fainted with excitement.
“The boss actually asked me to call him by name… If I tell my colleagues in my department this, they would never believe me. Even the manager would not believe m e!’
At this time, Jasper asked a question that petrified everyone at the scene.
“You’re Ginny Monroe, right? Julian told me your name, did I get it right? Where do you work?”
Ginny, “…”
Julian, “…”
Fallon slapped her forehead, and her face was flushed as she was trying to hold back laughter.
Jasper looked confused, not knowing what he had said wrong.
Wendy could not stand it any longer and she reminded him in a low voice, “Did you already forget? I told you that Ginny is an employee of our company and she’s been working with us for several years already.”
Jasper finally remembered and said
embarrassingly, “I’m sorry, I forgot.”
“Mr. Laine, it’s okay, I will strive to work hard and use my abilities to make you remember me as soon as possible!”
Ginny’s answer caused Jasper’s eyes to light up; Even Wendy was nodding her head in secret. This girl had a high EQ, and she was much better than that piece o f wood Julian.
That sentence dismissed Jasper’s awkwardness, and at the same time, it showed that she was not trying to use Julian’s position to curry favors. She only wanted to work hard by herself, which was undoubtedly a way to increase their fondness toward her.
“Okay. The reason I came today was to visit you and your family. After all, I interrupted your honeymoon. I’m so sorry about that,” Jasper said with a smile.
As Ginny was about to say something, a
voice sounded next to her.
“Are you JW’s boss Jasper Laine? You don’t look much older than me. I’ll not be inferior to you in the future!”
“Gus! Shut up!”
Julian was the first one next to Jasper to react to this. He glared at Gus with an extremely stern gaze while his tone was similarly cold.
Ginny’s face turned white from shock. She did not know what to say.
“Haha!”
However, Jasper guffawed, and he was not mad at all. Instead, he spoke to Gus with interest, “I’m JW’s boss, and yes, I’m not much older than you. I accept your challenge, but before that, you have to make yourself stronger. For example, you’re not my opponent at all at this current moment. It’s not that I’m showing off my ability in front of you, but that’s the truth. When you also have a net worth of 50 billion, you can also say that sentence to me with a prideful chest.”
