Jasper felt that Wendy made some sense.
Moreover, he did not want to force Wendy to stay at home in light of her insistent stance.
Wendy was one who could be persuaded by reason, but she definitely would not yield to a forceful approach.
After learning that someone was stalking her, there was no way that she would hide at home just because of it.
Dawson had previously told Jasper about an incident that took place when Wendy was sixteen years old. Back then, one of Dawson’s business competitors intended to hire someone to kidnap Wendy in order to threaten him.
However, sixteen-year-old Wendy Schuler had insisted on continuing to attend classes with a taser and a knife in her bag.
At that moment, Jasper knew in his heart that although this young lady looked soft, gentle, weak, and appeared like an easy target for bullies, she was definitely not an ordinary woman who could be easily provoked.
If he were to draw a comparison between Anna Law and Wendy Schuler…
Anna Law was just like a poppy flower–she was beyond enchanting and charming. However, she had her means of poisoning others when they least expected it.
On the other hand, Wendy Schuler resembled a rose. She was breathtakingly beautiful, but there were thorns concealed under the fragrant scent of her petals. Anyone who dared to approach her without thinking twice were likely to get pricked till blood ran down their hands.
Jasper felt that he was a pretty lucky man. In front of him, Wendy had always hidden away her thorns and transformed them into a soft and silent layer of gentleness.
“No problem. Julian, you should stay by Wendy’s side for the time being. Don’t let her out of your sight,” Jasper ordered.
“Alright, Jasper,” Julian agreed with a nod.
However, Wendy had a different opinion. From her point of view, Jasper was in a position that was much more dangerous as compared to her.
If someone was following her around, it was likely that those people would make a move on Jasper as well.
However, just as she was about to express her thoughts, she caught sight of Jasper’s stern gaze, which was directed at her. She instantly swallowed all the words that she had intended to counter him with.
She knew that Jasper would listen to her most of the time. However, once he made a certain type of decision, nobody was allowed to question it.
“Alright,” Wendy said in exasperation.
After deciding on the plan, Jasper left together with Wendy.
Julian left with them as well.
Although Cathy needed someone to look after her during her recuperation period, Julian knew his priorities.
At the hospital, Jasper had arranged for a team of experts to observe and oversee the entire process of Cathy’s recovery. In addition to this, a few of the best nurses in the hospital were looking after her 24 hours a day.
Therefore, Julian did not need to worry about Cathy at all.
The three of them left the ward and soon returned home. Jasper and Wendy did not tell Dawson about this incident.
There was no need to add to his worries.
Jasper now had the ability to handle all the impending problems and crises that he faced. He did not need someone else’s protection anymore.
On the contrary, he now needed to bear the brunt of all the problems in order to protect the people by his side.
The next day, Jasper and Wendy were just about to leave the house after having their breakfasts when Jasper received a call from Sean Tucker.
“Mr. Laine, we have a problem!”
Jasper frowned upon hearing what he said.
Sean then proceeded to explain the situation to him. There was a problem with the supply of building materials.
“I’ll head over to the company at once.”
Jasper arrived at JW Real Estates. The real estate company was yet to have a formal independent working space. Therefore, it currently worked from a temporary office that occupied two floors of Schuler Group’s office building.
