Life at the Top

“Do what?” Wendy asked curiously.

She did not even notice that Jasper had said ‘Mom and Dad’ instead of ‘my mom and dad’, giving Jasper the chance to take advantage of her.

When Wendy noticed Jasper’s smirk, she realized what was going on. She said angrily and embarrassedly, “Ugh, stop it! Can you judge the situation before you get into mischief?!

“Your son needs to be disciplined, Aunt Sally, Uncle Charlie!”

When Sally saw Wendy protesting like a child to her, she chuckled and said, “Jasp did a great job this time.”

Wendy was both embarrassed and mad, itching to punch Jasper, that idiot, to death.

“I’m serious about the things I say. I’m not joking.”

Jasper stroked his chin and said, “Actually, Mom and Dad, you’re not that old yet. Besides, you have been busy working all these years and probably don’t feel comfortable having so much free time all of a sudden. So I’m just thinking if I should bring you to Brac County?”

Wendy was a quick-witted woman. She reacted instantly, asking, “Are you referring to the shipyard in Brac County?”

Jasper laughed. “Not bad. You know me best.”

The shipyard was the Zions’ property that Jasper had previously acquired for 50 million. Jasper sat by the bed and explained it to his curious-looking parents.

“I acquired a shipyard at Brac County previously. It’s a factory that makes ships. I have too many businesses to handle right now so I don’t plan to focus too much energy on that for now. But it’s still a factory with huge assets, so it’ll be such a pity to abandon it!

“Therefore, I’ve decided to send you there to take care of the shipyard. Doing so will keep you busy and it’s not even that tiring to do. You’re mainly supervising production and managing workers. It’s not going to be tedious work.”

Jasper liked his arrangement, though as soon as Charlie and Sally heard what he said, they quickly shook their heads in unison.

“No way, I don’t know anything about that.” Charlie refused.
