Mark said coldly, “If Wendy is Dawson’s daughter, then we can’t force our way tonight. However, not to fear. No matter how powerful Dawson is, can he provide a helping hand over at Brac County? If he dares lend a helping hand, I’ll just chop it off!”
Mark chuckled and put on a devilish expression as he said, “I’m still hoping that Wendy is his daughter!”
“Young Master Zion, do you mind elaborating on that?” asked Steve.
“JW Real Estate used up so much money to buy that land. Without the permission of the Zion family, will he dare to start developing it? Impossible. If Wendy is his daughter, then he has to make Wendy come to me to negotiate.
“Hehehe, if I can be Dawson’s son-in-law, there’s no harm letting him develop that land because that’s going to be mine as well!”
Steve looked at Mark who was laughing maniacally. His eyes sparkled, and he buried his greed for Wendy deep within his heart. He raised his thumb and said, “What a splendid strategy you got there, Young Master Zion. Everyone will just plan things as they march forth, but you look a few steps ahead into the future with every move you make.
“Even after taking the entire province into consideration, who can be better than you, Young Master Zion, let alone here in Brac County?”
Marriott Hotel was just at the beach, and there was a large area of their own private beach.
Even though it was a private beach, as long as they were guests of Marriott Hotel, they were free to be there.
Even if that was the case, the environment over here was much better compared to public beaches.
They were holding hands and walking on the beach. Wendy took off her shoes. Her fair feet stepped on the beach which had been drenched by the tides, leaving behind a trail of footprints.
The waves washed up to the beach but did not go over Wendy’s feet. The chilly and exciting experience made the smile on Wendy’s face never once fade away.
“The air here is so nice,” said Wendy, feeling touched.
Jasper let go of his hand, allowing Wendy to jump up and down as she stepped on the waves. He answered with a smile after hearing her, “If you like this, we’ll choose a quiet place, buy it, and build a holiday villa there.”
Wendy tilted her head and looked at Jasper. She said, “Why are you being just like someone who got rich overnight? You’ll just buy everything now. You weren’t like that in the past.”
“It was the period of starting a business previously, so every penny had to be spent carefully. But now that we have a little bit of capital, we should make our lives better. What’s the point of earning so much money if you don’t use it to enjoy life?”
Wendy shook her head after hearing Jasper’s reply and said, “I don’t want to. There’s no meaning to building a holiday villa. It’s enough if we come here occasionally for a trip.”
“As long as you like it,” said Jasper with a soft smile.
Wendy spun around and walked backward. She glanced at her footprints on the beach while pulling Jasper along, insisting he took off his shoes as well.
Jasper would never reject Wendy on such a trivial issue. He immediately took off his shoes and socks before strolling the beach with Wendy.
As such, the beach had a long trail consisting of two pairs of big and small footprints.
“It’ll be winter after a few more months. Let’s make a trip to Capital City during this coming winter.” Wendy suddenly suggested.
Even though Jasper was very surprised to hear this suggestion, he still replied with a smile, “Sure.”
“Let’s choose a time when it’s snowing and visit the Forbidden City,” said Wendy softly.
She would never tell Jasper that she had heard from others that the ancient palace was only called the Forbidden City when it snowed. Legend had that if one accompanied their loved one and walked around the Forbidden City under the snow, without one realizing it, they would have become old together…
After they were tired from the walk, they lay on the lounge chairs that were set up on the beach nearby the hotel. They ordered the waiters to serve them drinks. Both Jasper and Wendy were feeling very relaxed.
“What do you plan to do to those two disgusting people?”
“In three days, I’ll make them both kneel before you and admit their mistakes!”
