Life at the Top

Jasper remained calm as he tapped Wendy on the arm, signaling for her to calm down.

“I’ll take care of these two,” Jasper said.

Wendy nodded and said angrily, “Jasp, you must teach them a lesson this time.”

“Teach them a lesson?”

Jasper smiled as he said slowly, “I’ve already taught them a lesson, but it seems that they aren’t in touch with reality yet. Lessons… aren’t enough for people like them.”

Jasper was smiling, but Wendy, who knew him like the back of her hand, knew he was furious.

Wendy knew Jasper was this angry because Mark had malicious intentions toward her. Her heart glowed with the warmth of that knowledge.

“I’m going to have to trouble you with something.”

Jasper said to Julian, “Call them and tell them that your plan has succeeded.”

Julian did not understand what was going on, but he could sense the iciness hidden within the calm expression on Jasper’s face.

Without asking more questions, he nodded and took his phone out to make the call.
