Jasper shook his head and said, “We both gained some benefits. Without the Law family, I wouldn’t be
earning this much as well. At the end of the day, without the help from the Law family, I’m afraid that I
wouldn’t even have the opportunity to show my talents as well!”
Zachary nodded his head with satisfaction when facing Jasper’s humbleness. He said with a smile,
“Regardless, you’ve indeed done a huge favor for the Law family in this matter. The Law family shall
always remember this.”
Jasper waved his hand and said with his expression suddenly becoming much more serious, “Uncle
Law, please allow me to say something on my mind. Just keep these words in your heart after hearing
this.”
Seeing that Jasper was speaking in such a manner, Zachary became all serious as well. He said, “Spit
it out. I’m all ears.”
“At the very last moment, I was actually planning to set up a trap for the opponent. Once he was in the
trap, he would be within my control. With that, we could have gobbled up the main funds for a short
sale, at least half of it!”
“I know about this. You mentioned it previously,” said Zachary.
“But at the eleventh hour, we just lacked that one step. The opponent was very decisive and backed off
instead. I’m suspecting that there’s a spy among us.”
Hearing this made Zachary’s expression become extremely stern.
“We can be absolutely sure that the main force doing the short sale has its funds from the western
countries. However, the investigation about who the leader is is still ongoing. You’re saying that among
us, there’s a spy who’s helping out the western countries?”
Zachary’s tone was extremely serious.
Earlier, there had been lots of people in the hall. They could exclude Zack and the trading team. Since
two days ago, they had been staying together under the tight surveillance of the security guards.
Even if they had the intention of leaking out information, they would not have had that opportunity to do
so.
Next up were the heads of the four affluent families, along with the two officials with the government of
Harbor City, and… Jake Cullen!
“Who do you think is the most suspicious?” Zachary asked.
“I’ve got no idea.” Jasper shook his head. “Actually, the conclusion that there’s a spy among us is also
my own guess without any concrete proof. So as for who’s the most suspicious, currently I only have
very little information to go on. I can’t say for sure.”
“Alright, I’ll conduct an investigation on this matter,” said Zachary with a dark expression.
At this point, being a spy for the funds to the western countries was no different than selling one’s own
country to others.
Zachary despised people who betrayed their country for their own luxury.
“There’s something that you might need to consider.”
Zachary said to Jasper, “The financial weekly magazine that’s the biggest and most famous throughout
Harbor City, Terra’s Financial Weekly, hopes to have a special interview session with you.”
Jasper waved his hand and said, ‘I’ve got lots of work to do. I might not be free.”
It was an opportunity to integrate Gladness Entertainment Movies when Harbor Stocks were still in a
recovery phase. He got to enter rapidly in those potential stocks that might rise in the future. There
were tons of things awaiting for Jasper to accomplish.
“It won’t do you any harm to spare some time to go over. They can follow your schedule. Besides, you’ll
still be able to gain some benefits from this weekly magazine. Regardless of what happens, Harbor City
is a place that emphasizes reputation. There are many times where reputation might be more useful
than benefits.”
Zachary’s thoughtful words made Jasper change his mind. “Alright then. Then please ask them to get
in touch with me.”
…
In a quiet study room in a villa.
Smack!
A slap landed across Mitch’s face.
Due to that slap, Mitch stumbled and took two steps back. He nearly fell hard with his bottom hitting the
floor.
The burning pain on Mitch’s face made him clench his fist, but he dared not retaliate or vent out his
frustrations. He knew that his father, Kennedy, had a temper that was much worse than himself. Hence,
he did not have the guts to speak even a word.
“You scumbag!”
Kennedy’s exasperated roar exploded in Mitch’s ears.
“It’s one thing if you lost your mind and lost some money. But how dare you be so daring, even
dragging Zane along and selling the family’s assets, tossing all of it away?!”
“Do you two fools know that you guys are the sons of affluent families? If news were to spread out
about you guys doing short sales and trying to earn the hard earn monies of Harbor City during the
financial crisis, do you guys think that you’ll be able to raise your heads high in Harbor City?
“Even the family’s business will be affected as well!”
