Life at The Top novel Chapter 695

Jasper took the Law family’s private plane back to Nauritus City.

“I’ve been thinking of getting ourselves a private plane as well once my cash flow isn’t as tight anymore.”

Jasper turned to tell Wendy as he sat in the comfortable interior of the private plane’s compartment.

Wendy pursed her lips and smiled. “I heard that it costs two to three million a year just to maintain a private plane. That’s a waste of money.”

Jasper shrugged. “A normal car needs maintenance too, but you wouldn’t choose not to buy a car just because you have to maintain it, right? It comes with much more convenience that outweighs the cost, and we have to think of the benefits it brings as well. It’s the same with a private plane. It’s safer, more comfortable, and more convenient—very much worth that few million Somer Dollars worth of maintenance.”

Sitting in front of them, Henry turned his head excitedly and asked, “How about you get me one too while you’re at it? Kayden is the only rich kid in Harbor City with a private plane and the rest of us are very envious.”

“This isn’t yours?” Jasper was surprised.

“As if my dad would be so generous.” Henry scoffed with an indignant expression.

“Forget buying me a private plane, he won’t even let me borrow this one here when I ask. He only had someone fly this plane over for me because he heard that you got hurt. The only other time I get to sit in this plane is when I tag along on his business trips.”

“Yeah, he really shouldn’t get you a plane.” Jasper attacked him mercilessly, saying, “You’d definitely have those ridiculous parties up in the sky if you got one, wouldn’t you?”

Henry’s expression darkened, but he was not going to give up so easily. “Both of us can share a plane, then? You’ll be the first Mainlander with a private plane while I’ll be the second Harbor City trust-fund baby with a private plane. Don’t you think that sounds cool?”

“I’ll think about it when the time comes. Definitely won’t be this year, though. I’ve invested in too many projects and I’m broke.” Jasper sighed.

Construction of Waterhoof Tower would cost him at least 16 billion, and the patented MP3 player technology as well as the electronics factory would cost another 700 to 800 million.
