Life at the Top

Chapter 49

“That’s how fatherly love works, weighted and grand!”

Jasper comforted Wendy, saying, “Everything will get better after this.”

“It’s the final fight tomorrow… isn’t it?” Wendy stared at Jasper with a burning gaze.

Jasper nodded. “Tomorrow determines whether we win or lose, whether life or death awaits us.”

“We’ll win, though, won’t we?” Wendy asked seriously.

Jasper smiled. “Yeah.” Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Wendy was greatly relieved by that reply and beamed. “Come on. I’ll bring you to your room.”

The following morning after breakfast, Dawson cleared his schedule for the day and sat next to Wendy behind Jasper.

“Their transfer of assets got buffered since we managed to find out about it early, so the most crucial thing now is this battle of stocks. If we lose here, then it’s over for Schuler Group. But if we manage to win, then it’s smooth sailing from here onward.”

Dawson patted Jasper’s shoulder and reassured him, “No matter what happens, don’t give yourself too much pressure.”

Seeing that there were still ten more minutes before the market opened, Jasper nodded. His gaze was tranquil.

At the same time in a mansion, Zayden was talking to three stock traders in front of him. The man seemed slightly nervous as he spoke, “Wake up, wake up. The market’s about to open soon. I’ve

already transferred the funds into the account. All you need to do is work the stocks according to my orders.”

He had just received one billion dollars, which was transferred from his family’s account half an hour ago. With this one billion, Zayden had full confidence that he would be able to crush and defeat that party in the market.

Once the ten minutes were up, the market came to life.

The day began.

Jasper squinted slightly as he watched the stock prices for Heavenly Dragon Real Estate begin to rise the moment the market opened, but he did not move to do anything.

Like a cheetah hidden in the depths of the jungle, he waited for the best opportunity for action.

Meanwhile, Zayden ordered his stock traders frantically.

“Buy it! Buy every single stock there is for this price!”

Under the clickity-clack of fingers on keyboards, the stock price showed a smooth upward trend. However, it seemed like the person who fought him yesterday for stocks did not appear.

“Where are they? Where did they go?”

Zayden frowned before he suddenly sneered, “Afraid now, are you?”

“That person has made a move, Mr. Hanks.”

A stock trader suddenly spoke, and Zayden immediately turned to look at the trading interface.

Indeed, a large sum of money had been entered and the speedily increasing price suddenly skyrocketed.

Investors were stunned at the sudden jump.

Countless investors began to buy, causing a surge in the investment funds entering. Everyone was afraid to let go of such a good chance to earn money.

“Step it up. I want every single stock there is!”

Zayden’s expression was a wretched one. “You want to compare how much money we have? Sure! I have one billion dollars. It’s enough to bury you alive!”

The stock price continued to rise, and the number of funds Jasper and Zayden had invested was immense.

It was a battle where blood was spilled without the use of firepower.

Both Jasper and Zayden seemed to have lost their minds.

Just as the stock price was about to reach the limit, Jasper was certain that Zayden had already gone mad. Chuckling lightly, Jasper sat in the villa’s office as he sold every stock he had bought over the last two days.

“This is the moment we’ve been waiting for!” The corner of Jasper’s lips curled upward.
