Chapter 868

The topping-off ceremony attracted plenty of prominent figures due to Jasper’s renowned reputation
and extensive connections.

Among other things, Zachary Law’s appearance at the event alone garnered a lot of attention.

“Not bad. I heard that a lot of celebrities from Harbor City have volunteered to attend this event.
Something like that is truly rare.”

Seated in one of the reception rooms in Southface River Tower, Zachary chuckled as he stared out at
the lively and happening ceremony going on outside the building.

The large reception was empty except for Jasper and Zachary. Meanwhile, Henry sat by the side of the
door like he was a mascot for the event.

“Everyone simply feels obligated to show their support,” Jasper chuckled.

“You’re now a big boss within the entertainment industry. Those celebrities will definitely have to deal
with the two entertainment companies under you. Nobody would dare to not show you their support.”

Zachary seemed to be in a good mood that day as he joked around with Jasper for a while. However, a
frown formed on his face once he turned around to look at Henry.

“What’s with that private jet of yours?” Zachary asked him with a dark expression on his face.

“I bought that with the money that I earned on my own. It’s none of your business,” Henry said in an
aggrieved tone.

Zachary was angered by his response. “Money you earned on your own? Do you think I’m unaware of
know how much money Jasp lent to you? He’s paid for half of that private jet. How dare you say that
you bought it with your own money!” He barked at him.



“Besides, that private jet is parked in our space now. Our family is paying for its maintenance crew.
How dare you tell me that it’s none of my business?”

“I’m your son. Do you need to be so calculative with me over every single thing that I do?” Henry asked
bitterly.

“Hmph, when I took over our family business from your grandpa back then, I used the car that your
grandpa passed down to me. I would never dare to even think of a private jet. What did I tell you? All
you know how to do is enjoy life. You’ve never thought about where those luxuries come from.

“Let me tell you right now. If you continue being such a bum, I’ll pass down all of our property to Anna
in the future. When that happens, you’ll have to rely on the family trust fund for your daily expenses. I’ll
give you an allowance of a few million dollars every month. Let’s see what will happen to you then.”

“No! I can’t live a single day in such poverty!” Henry shouted out in terror.

“Pfft…”

Zachary and Henry both turned around to look at Jasper, who had spit out a mouthful of tea, with an
odd glance.

“It’s alright, sorry for interrupting. Please continue,” Jasper said as he waved his hand awkwardly. He
wiped away the water on the coffee table immediately.

The life of an aristocrat was really extraordinary! Even a disobedient son could receive a monthly
allowance of a few million dollars. In this era, an ordinary person may not even be able to earn a few
million dollars in their entire lifetime.

In the eyes of an aristocrat, a few million dollars was simply their monthly allowance.



Henry turned around and told his father, “Father, why don’t you give me more allowance? Besides,
Anna is my younger sister. Isn’t it all the same if you gave all the property to me?”

“Besides, I’ve thought about it. Why should I follow in you and grandpa’s footsteps? Both of you are
always tired. Why should I work that hard? Grandpa is smarter than you–he retired a long time ago.

“Those old men around the same age as Grandpa who are still reluctant to retire are all riddled with
illness. None of them are as healthy as Grandpa. If you go for a health checkup right now, you may
discover that you are less healthy than him. Because of this, I reckon that I’m meant to live a busy
working lifestyle. It’s good to live in idle relaxation.”

“Pfft…”

Jasper spit out another mouthful of tea.

As the father and son were busy expressing how much they cared for each other, Wendy came over
and knocked on the door of the reception room.

“Mr. Law, Jasp, the officials from the municipal and provincial government have arrived. My father has
gone to meet them. Shall we head over to greet them as well?” Wendy asked.

Jasper got up and told Zachary, “Uncle Law, shall we head over?”

Zachary nodded. He left Henry, whose figure was now slumped from all the scolding, and said, “Alright,
let’s go.”

They made their way out of the building. The entire area was glowing with bright decorations and
immersed in a lively atmosphere.

A short distance away, Dawson Schuler was chatting with two middle-aged men in front of some cars
with special license plates. Those with lower-ranking positions did not even have the right to approach



them.

Jasper and Zachary made their way toward them. In an event like this, Zachary had to stand behind
Jasper. Meanwhile, Wendy stood next to Jasper because of her relationship with him. They then joined
in the conversation with the highest-ranking officials from the municipal and provincial government.

“Nice to meet you, Mr. Law.”

“Hello, Mr. Law.”

The two high-ranking officials from the municipal and provincial government smiled widely when they
caught sight of Zachary Law. They immediately took the initiative to greet him.

Zachary laughed cheerily. After shaking hands with the two officials, he said, “Look at me. My memory
is getting poorer now that I’m older. I was chatting with Jasper in the reception room and I forgot to look
at the time. Otherwise, I would have came out and welcomed both of you.”

Zachary’s words were a sign of respect to the two officials.

As the head of the Laws, Zachary had every right to stand tall amongst these government officials due
to his prominent status and social ranking. However, he took the initiative to lower himself before them
in order to please them.

The official from the provincial government laughed and said, “You’re being way too courteous, Mr.
Law. We should have greeted you at the airport when you arrived in the province. After all, we’re the
hosts, and you’re our guest.”

Zachary smiled and said, “I’ve invested in a number of projects here. Now that the amusement park
and Southface River projects are complete, I should be partly considered as a host as well.”



The group exchanged glances, then burst out into laughter.

“Learn from your father,” Jasper told Henry.

Henry pouted and said, “It’s impossible for me to learn how to speak courteously like these cunning
foxes.”

While they were speaking, the official from the provincial government chuckled and said to Jasper,
“This must be the young talent from Southeast Province. This is our first time meeting, right?”

Jasper behaved respectfully but without any hint of inferiority toward the high-ranking official. He
grinned and spoke to him in a tone that was neither humble nor arrogant.

“This is your first time meeting me, Sir. However, I’ve often seen you on television. Also, the province is
burgeoning with talent. I’m young, but I won’t say that I’m talented. I simply managed to get things done
at the right time.”

The provincial official was stunned. He laughed out loud and told the municipal official, “Look at how
slick he is with his words. My son is about the same age as Mr. Laine, but they’re on completely
different levels.

“Nauritus City has produced a real talent!”
