Exiting Swallow Capital University, Jasper returned to the hotel to rouse Henry from his sweet dreams.
“Hey! What the f*ck man, f*ck you! I was having a nice f*cking dream there!”
Henry growled, angry and bleary-eyed.
Jasper took a look at the hickey left on his neck and huffed. “You’ve been spending these few nights drowning in women, haven’t you? The moment Anna left, you completely let go and do whatever you want.”
Henry’s pissed expression froze and he immediately denied. “Hey, I’m innocent, okay! I didn’t…”
Then as he spoke, he watched Jasper pick up a black bra with a trendy design by the bed with two fingers…
Henry immediately shut his mouth and tried to recall his memory. ‘Who did I bring over last night? Was it the innocent Annie, the sexy Angela, or the intellectual Catherine?
‘F*ck! That’s too many women, I can’t even tell them apart anymore!’
As such, Henry decided he would not think about it and just block all of them. He could not believe he made a fool of himself in front of his future brother-in-law.
Jasper ignored the embarrassed expression Henry wore and decided to ask in seriousness, “Do you have a way to contact your grandfather?”
Henry was stunned. “My grandfather? I mean I have his assistant’s phone number, but why do you want to contact my grandfather?”
Jasper smiled. “I was hoping to invite him to the celebratory banquet next week.”
Henry shuddered, and the thick drowsiness muffling his mind immediately vanished. He instantly became filled with vigor as he roared, “Calling my grandfather over? Do we need to kill someone? The Turners? Yeah, man, let’s do it! I knew you wouldn’t just let the Turners go so easily. We’ll f*ck those motherf*ckers up so bad! The moment my grandfather is involved in this, they can kiss their wealth and status goodbye!”
Jasper took Henry’s phone and spoke exasperatedly, “Is your every thought just filled with bullsh*t like that? I might as well admit my loss if I have to involve Old Master Law just to fight someone.”
Henry was stunned. “Not at all. That’s how we all do things. We go to our parents when people bully us.”
As he dialed the number, Jasper spoke, “Seems like you’ve bothered him quite a bit for things like this, then.”
Henry looked embarrassed as he scratched his head. “No way. Others like to ask their parents for help, but I just turn to Anna instead. It’s embarrassing… but you know how it is in my family. My dad would break my legs and I don’t want to imagine what my grandfather would do.”
While Henry spoke, Jasper’s call with the old master’s assistant was connected. The phone was then passed to Old Master Law.
“Old Master Law. It’s me, Jasper,” Jasper greeted politely.
Old Master Law’s bright laughter echoed through the speakers. “You’re calling about the banquet, aren’t you, Jasper? Zachary told me about it yesterday. I was just about to have him tell you when you called me yourself.”
Jasper replied sincerely, “I’ve been thinking about it, and I realized that even though it’s only right I tell Uncle Law in advance, I should still discuss this with you myself regarding inviting you to the banquet.”
Old Master Law was extremely pleased with Jasper’s detailed thoughtfulness and smiled. “Don’t worry, I’ll be there. One, to support you so that people won’t look down on you, and two, there are also some things about the family that I have to talk to them about in Swallow Capital.”
Jasper knew that he was referring to the Olympic Village. ‘It seems like Old Master Law is planning to take the project for sure.’
“Alright then. I’ll pick you up from the airport,” Jasper replied happily.
Old Master Law chuckled. “No need. We’ll get there ourselves. You don’t need to fetch us at all. Aren’t you busy enough right now? Just focus on your own things and push everything else to the side.”
“I’ve already put a word in with Spencer, Joe, and Wallace for you. They’ll be there too, so you don’t have to call them,” Old Master Law spoke gently.
Jasper was stunned. Old Master Law was doing more than just standing on his side. He had also gotten the rest of Harbor City’s major rich families to support him.
