Life at the Top

Henry already thought that it was shameless to ask his father for help.

Because of this, he did not expect Jasper to go straight for the ultimate move. However, having spent so long with Jasper, Henry knew that the man had his own reason behind everything he did.

Thus, Henry did not waste any time and immediately pulled out his phone. After dialing his grandfather’s private number, he tossed his phone to Jasper.

It was late at night, but the phone was connected in no time.

“Is this Henry?” The old master’s voice sounded from the other end of the line. Jasper replied softly, “It’s me, Jasper, Old Master Law. I’m sorry for disrupting your rest so late at night.”

Old Master Law’s laughter echoed through the line and his tone turned even more gentle. “It’s alright. Go ahead and tell me what’s wrong.”

Old Master Law knew that Jasper would not seek him out lightly without a good reason. Something troublesome must have arisen if Jasper was looking for him.

With that, Jasper recounted the essentials of the whole situation.

Old Master Law muttered softly after Jasper was done, “It’s quite troublesome indeed. How do you want me to help?”

Jasper replied grimly, “I can’t give in, Old Master Law. If I do, then I’ll be placed in a completely passive stance after this.”

The old master agreed with Jasper and he said, “You’re right. Standing firm now means you’ll still be able to turn this game around. If you give in, then they will have control over whether you live or die.”

“The construction of the World Financial Center cannot be halted if this report gets released to the public, Old Master Law,” Jasper said.

Old Master Law chuckled and replied, “Don’t worry. Do as you wish.”

Jasper let out a sigh of relief when he heard the old master’s assurance. Jasper then said rather remorsefully, “I’m really sorry I have to trouble you for help all the time, Old Master Law.”
