The corners of Conrad’s mouth twitched. and he continued, “In the beginning, Fabian put you in a difficult situation. It was my idea that Fabian worked with Wall Street to take action against you.”
“I figured.”
Jasper said with a half-smile, “So I guess only a few people in the world know that the reason JW Foundation was born and how it can face Wall Street capital under the attention of the world now is because o f a core figure…
“And that’s you.
“Without you, none of these things would have happened.”
Conrad laughed and said, “So you think I should feel proud of myself?”
“It doesn’t matter if you think it’s worth feeling proud of since it’s all over.”
Jasper looked at Conrad and said, “JW is developing very well now, and my business is doing very well. Are you interested in coming over and joining me?
“Everything else aside, I can promise that you’ll live well.”
Conrad smiled even brighter and replied, ” I don’t think I’m at that stage where I need to sponge off others. I don’t want these things. The money my dad left me is still enough for me to live decently.”
“Conrad, are you willing to live the rest of your days spending your old man’s money?”
Jasper looked at Conrad and asked, “If you are willing, then I won’t force you. You can live your days like a recluse with no fixed abode. It suits you too.”
Conrad replied playfully, “Then what if I’m not reconciled and don’t want to work under you?”
“Then when I deal with Fabian, I will destroy you while I’m at it.”
Jasper’s expression calmed when he said this. “I’m not kidding, I’m tired of fighting with you people for some
inexplicable grievances, so it’s better if I take care of all of you at once so I can
focus on other things.
Conrad said suddenly.
Jasper looked at him and did not say anything.
“This guy should be able to recognize others’ good intentions, yet he’s making requests the moment he joins?”
Jasper narrowed his eyes and decided to wait for Conrad to make his request.
“I want Valentine to be my deputy. This whole time, he was the only one who was loyal to me, and I can’t abandon him,” Conrad said calmly but solemnly.
Jasper considered for 10 seconds before nodding, “You are the chief operating office, so you have the right to decide who your deputy is. You can think of this as a convenience I extended you to support your work.”
Later, when Jasper entered the command room with Conrad, who was the new chief operating officer of JW Company, the others did not say anything. However, Henry immediately exploded.
“F*ck! Conrad Monty! You son of a b* tch!”
