The next day, Celine’s team went to Sena’s headquarters at Swallow Capital as well as its branch office
at Waterhoof City to conduct a comprehensive review of its accounts, just as they had planned.
Celine had a lot of time on her hands now that everything had been delegated to her subordinates. She
dragged Jasper to accompany her to go sightseeing all around Waterhoof City. She was seemingly
delighted to have found some time in her busy schedule to let off steam.
The two seemed almost like a couple as they strolled through every road and alley in Waterhoof City.
Although Celine was a woman with beautiful looks and a wonderful temperament, Jasper was not a
lustful person. However, he needed to ensure he was on good terms with Celine during a critical time
like this.
Thus, Jasper gifted Celine a wristwatch that was priced at six figures. Although Celine teased Jasper
about openly bribing her, she later gifted him a tailored suit that was equally expensive.
On the evening of the third day, the two were sitting in a restaurant. Celine swirled her glass of red wine
and said to Jasper, “I heard you’re planning to construct the tallest tower in the world here in Waterhoof
City?”
“Colossal Investments has a great source for insider news,” Jasper replied.
Although the project had officially commenced and was about to begin construction, the news was only
circulating among a very small circle. It had not been publicized yet.
Celine smiled as she said, “That depends on who the person is. You’re one of my most important
clients, so it’s only natural that I would consolidate more information on you. I gather it’s true judging
from your reaction?”
“Of course, it is.”
Jasper nodded. He did not plan to hide it from her. After all, even if he did not admit to it now, the news
would have to be publicized for Waterhoof City’s advertising needs in the future.
Since this news would be announced sooner or later, Jasper was willing to share the news with Celine.
Celine’s eyes brightened slightly as she said to Jasper, “To be honest, I would be more than willing to
assist your parent company in going public. Believe me, you would have secured the position as the
richest man in Terra if that business deal went well.”
Jasper shook his head, showing his apparent disinterest in gaining wealth through market inflation.
Frankly, he would never have considered putting Sena on the market if the tower project had not
caused him to be strapped for cash.
Born into a family of farmers, Jasper had always taken the concept of ‘ownership’ very seriously. He
would never allow the risk of his businesses being out of his control, which was why Jasper had
ensured he had total ownership over Sena even as he allowed it to be listed publicly.
“What if Colossal Investments was interested in investing in your company?” Celine asked abruptly.
“The rewards are far greater than you can even imagine. I promise that you’ll immediately earn more
than ten billion Somer Dollars if you agree to sell 40% of your shares. Moreover, Colossal Investments
will absolutely never interfere in your rights to operate and manage the company.”
Jasper could not help but smile when he heard these familiar statements.
Had he not said the same thing to ‘befuddle’ Hudson Moore before?
Of course, all capitalists were equally corrupt.
“Oh? Wouldn’t that be giving me money for nothing?” Jasper asked teasingly.
“Of course.”
Celine propped her face up with a pale hand as she tilted her head and gazed at Jasper. This posture
caused her to look a little less mature and slightly more playful and spunky.
“Colossal Investments would have to send over at least three people to sit on the board of directors. Of
course, that can still be discussed…”
“Never mind,” Jasper said as he shook his head. “Miss Celine, I will never consider splitting the rights
to my parent company. That’s my bottom line.”
“What a stingy person you are.”
Celine glared at Jasper as she rebuked, “You must understand that the reason so many companies are
making it big now is because they’ve received help from the capitalists. How long would it take for a
company looking to expand to reach a market price of 100 billion dollars if they do not receive aid from
the capitalists? Or are you saying you’re satisfied with owning a company that’s only worth tens of
billions of dollars?”
Jasper chuckled as he said, “I’m more of a backward thinker, and my poor background has made me
particular about such things. The thing I despise most is people trying to leech benefits from me.
Moreover, who’s to say I’ll only have several billion dollars to my name in a year?”
Celine was startled.
True. In her process of researching Jasper’s journey from rags to riches, she had nearly forgotten he
had amassed his fortune within a year.
That was not just a shocking fact but a horrifying one.
“Alright, but please let me know if you ever change your mind. Both I and Colossal Investments will
always have our door open for you.” Celine smiled elegantly as she changed the topic wisely.
