Life at The Top novel Chapter 875

“Do you think I’m blind? Your dad is a man, I’ve been through this and I know it better than you do.

“There’s nothing wrong with men having flings outside, as the worst thing would actually be the inability to attract flings. Jasper at least has the capital and qualifications to do so.”

“But you are my daughter so I’ve hesitated for a long time over this. I don’t want you to end up suffering from this relationship in the future.

“I’ve watched him for a while, and I can say that Jasper still knows his limits. He knows that you’re the most important one and I can be certain that no matter how much JW Capital grows, no other woman will be able to tamper with its core!

“You’re the only exception in all of this. Didn’t you realize that he gave you have one of the main powers at the very beginning, and has slowly shifted the resources and authority over internal affairs over to you?”

Wendy was stunned for a moment before responding dumbfoundedly, “No? All I know is that I do my work every day. It is true that I’m getting busier though.”

“Silly girl, had it not been for Jasper, you’d be helping whoever scammed you now!” Dawson said in disappointment.

“Look at all those heads of the families onstage. Tell me who among them doesn’t have at least a few secret wives?

“Jasper’s only just started, but considering his growth and speed of development, it won’t be long before a whole new Laine family makes a name for itself. With an enterprise as huge as JW Capital and its subsidiaries, no one could possibly ignore its existence.

“While Jasper will spend the first twenty years trying to grow his enterprise, he’ll be spending the next twenty on how to continue the business and ensure that someone inherits it after him.

“You two will have children, and with children comes the issue of inheritance. Fights for authority and control will arise the moment the family grows bigger.

“These are all problems that you two will have to worry about in the future, but it’s obvious now that Jasper’s already made his choice. When it comes to his official wife, he chose you.”

Wendy waved him off and spoke nonchalantly, “You think too much, Dad!

“Jasp told me that he doesn’t like the family business idea, nor does he plan to hand his business to his children unless they’re outstanding enough and have won his approval. Otherwise, he’d much prefer the western model with plenty of professional managers, whereby he can spread out the authority and managerial rights… basically it’s not what you think.”

“Silly girl.” Dawson shook his head.

He was about to say something else when he was interrupted by the celebratory pop of confetti. He looked up to see Jasper, standing at the center of everyone’s gaze with a mature and confident smile. The man oozed an indescribable charm.

Dawson suddenly smiled and muttered to himself, “Perhaps. Maybe he trusts you with this because you’re so innocent and pure that you’ve never thought of such things.”

Meanwhile, among the crowd stood two pairs of eyes that reddened with envy as they glared at Jasper.

“What the f*ck! Why! Why!” Zane held his heart gnaw maddeningly as if there were seven to eight crabs trampling over it with their pointy feet. It itched and it hurt, but as a whole, he felt sour.

“What the f*ck does he think he is? He’s just a country bumpkin, a dog from the farms! How dare he walk all the way up there while all I can do is stand here and watch?”

Mitch’s gaze was stormy and his slightly shaking balled fist betrayed the unease within him.

Just then, Jasper’s gaze swept over the crowd. It fell on Mitch and Zane for a short moment before he averted his gaze.

Zane could barely hold back their anger when they spotted this.

“What the f*ck was that look from that son of a b*tch? Is he looking down on us?
