Life at the Top

Wendy put her arms around Dawson’s neck and said coquettishly, “Dad, you’re the best.”

Dawson patted the back of Wendy’s hands, which were crossed in front of his body, and said, “You’re my one and only daughter. Who else would I do all of this for, if not you?”

“The shares of JW Real Estates are already in your name. In the future, I’ll entrust the management team of the entire real estate company to you.

“Is this appropriate though?” Wendy betrayed some hesitation.

“I’m giving it to you as a gift, so of course it’s appropriate. Jasper’s a smart man, he understands my intentions.”

Dawson pondered for a moment, then continued, “Jasper is an outstanding young man. His future won’t be limited to just this province. The entire country, or an even larger stage—that’s where he should go.

“I want to seize the opportunity now to arrange a large dowry for you so that no matter where Jasper ends up in the future, you will always have sufficient authority to speak up.”

Wendy frowned and said, “Dad, I haven’t even thought this far ahead yet. What’s more, Jasper isn’t that kind of person.”

“I don’t think he is either,” Dawson commented, smiling.

“However, given he’s such an excellent young man, do you think he’d ever have a shortage of philanderers and lascivious women around him? Even if he does remain faithful to you till the end, you won’t lack for rivals. The shares of the JW Estate, as well as the future Schuler Group are the bargaining chips I’m giving you.
