“You’re not going to hammer the market again?” Wendy asked, astonished.
“If even you assume that I’ll hammer the market, then there’s no doubt that Zayden will think so too. He has to save Heavenly Dragon Real Estate, while all I want is to crush him.
“Not to mention that I’m not interested in playing in such a small pool with him. Heavenly Dragon Real Estate is hardly any high-quality stock. It’ll only be a matter of time before inflated stock prices would plummet. He has no shot at saving this market.”
Dawson agreed with Jasper’s words.
Despite not understanding how the stock market worked, doing business was built on the same idea. When a company only had so much to provide, it did not matter how people hyped it, for the company’s market price would not exceed its performance by too much.
After all, investors were not fools.
“Alright then. That’s it for today, we’ll deal with it again tomorrow. Come back with us for today, Jasper, you can stay at our home.” Dawson’s words were shocking.
Wendy made a small sound and began to shuffle on her seat. She glanced at Jasper then back at Dawson.
The more conservative part of Wendy told her that it would not be very ‘ladylike’ of her to have Jasper stay over at their house.
However, Wendy’s heart did not reject the notion.
In fact, her thoughts began to spiral in a fanciful direction… ‘Isn’t this… cohabitation?’
Wendy’s cheeks flushed greatly at the word that drifted through her head and she turned her face away so that no one would see the ripple of emotions in her eyes.
“It would be my pleasure.” Jasper gave a small smile as he took in Wendy’s embarrassed yet charmingly unrestrained appearance.
Dawson laughed aloud and brought the two of them downstairs.
