Jasper was not surprised by what Old Master Law said.
He could already have predicted this when Old Master Law sent Henry to him.
Surely, as the one and only third-generation son who had inheritance rights to the Law family, Henry was not going to keep fooling around.
In the future, Henry did learn as silver tried in a furnace.
Jasper’s appearance, however, had caused the Laws to change their initial plan.
Therefore, Jasper did not hesitate to accept Old Master Law’s request.
“Okay.”
Jasper answered straight away.
Henry was moved to tears.
“Do you believe in me so much?”
This was the first time Henry had ever felt Jasper’s kindness.
“Old Master Law, if there’s really no way around this, then ask Uncle Zachary to give birth to another son. He’s still young anyway… Or maybe you can let Anna be the heiress instead.”
No ordinary person would ever have the guts to sit in someone else’s home, especially not in front of Old Master Law, and tell them what to do.
This was an absolute taboo in every family. Outsiders had no right to comment on their family.
Jasper, however, did it ever so casually.
Not only did Old Master Law not take it to heart, but he even laughed and said, “You’ve hit the nail on the head. I’ll consider it.”
Henry erupted on the spot.
“Believe me, Grandpa. I know I was wrong now. What I’ve been doing in the past was nothing but a waste of time. I only fooled around all the time. I’ve repented and turned over a new leaf…”
When he got to this point, Henry glanced at Jasper and then said in a very serious tone, “That’s because Jasper taught me that a true man is absolutely dope! And those who only rely on their family to gain status and power are simply using their powerful connections to intimidate others.”
Old Master Law did not understand what Henry meant by dope, but he knew it was something good.
For the first time ever, Old Master Law did not lecture Henry like he always did.
Instead, he said earnestly, “Grandpa is getting older. I don’t know how much longer I can live. Once I leave, I can foresee great changes befalling the family. Young people like you need to grow up quicker.”
Both Henry and Anna put on a stony resolve. Henry said, “Grandpa, you’ll definitely live to a ripe old age.”
Anna added, “Why are you saying these things all of a sudden, Grandpa?”
Old Master Law smiled and said, “Do you think I’ll never die? Am I supposed to turn into an old fairy or something?”
As he said that, Old Master Law waved his hand and said, “I’m tired. I’m going upstairs to get some rest. Jasp, stay for dinner tonight.”
“Okay.” Jasper got up and sent Old Master Law upstairs.
Zachary also took the opportunity to have dinner at home.
At the dinner table, Zachary and Jasper talked in detail about certain projects that they were working on together.
“Real estate is the best way for the government of Harbor City to recover its economy quickly. With that being said, real estate will soon usher in great development.”
Zachary agreed with Jasper.
No matter which country or region, the real estate industry was definitely a pillar industry that could drive the economy. Although real estate in Harbor City was still in a downturn, it would soon flourish.
“My plan is to establish a real estate company in Harbor City in the future. Although market competition over here is fierce enough, I may still have a chance.”
Jasper said while smiling at Zachary, “Are you interested, Uncle Zachary?”
Zachary smiled and said, “A large part of the Law family’s properties are in real estate, so of course, I’m interested. But Jasp, are you planning to buy the property for hoarding or buy a piece of land to develop it yourself?”
