Chapter 1040

Jasper and Julian left early the next morning, taking the Bentley as they made their way to Waterhoof
City.

“Jul, I heard from Wendy that your sister’s been trying to set you up for blind dates recently?”

Jasper suddenly thought of something as they entered the highway, so he asked Julian with a subtle
smile on his face.

Julian was in a great mood this morning, but his expression immediately darkened at the mention of
dating.

Jasper and Julian had known each other for quite some time and their relationship was more akin to
friendship than that of an employer and employee. Hence, there were fewer inhibitions between the
duo’s private conversations.

Julian immediately began to complain, “I already told my sister that I don’t want to start dating so soon,
let alone get married. I don’t even know what she’s searching for.

“You’re the only son of the Lager family. Elder sisters tend to take up the role of the mother in the family
too, so of course she’d worry for you,” Jasper answered.

Julian sighed and complained, “I’m busy with work and I don’t have the kind of time to deal with those
girls. They can be so demanding sometimes I might as well train with what little remaining time I have.”

Jasper replied irritably, “Will training continue your family bloodline? Will training find you a doting wife?

“Getting married and having children is something everyone has to experience. Sometimes people just
need the company of their other half; it’s different from the company of friends and family.”



Julian grumbled at Jasper’s words, “I’ll just see where fate takes me. I’ve actually met a few girls but
none of them felt right. These girls only came to me because I worked by your side, Jasper. They come
with ulterior motives.”

“You’re making a few hundred thousand annually, so you should have quite a bit saved up, right?”
Jasper smiled.

Julian chuckled innocently and replied, “My sister’s the one saving my money for me. I heard I’ve made
over a million now.”

Julian could be regarded as a small wealthy local man with more than a million Somer Dollars in
savings in the year 2000.

“That’s nice. Your sister’s got quite the talent in managing money. This will be your savings allocated to
marriage and dating.

“But as you said, let fate decide. Who knows, maybe you’ll find someone you like just around the
corner. Tell me if you need my help one day. I’ll be your wingman.” Jasper laughed out loud.

The two continued to talk, and in a few hours, they had exited the highway and entered the overpass
leading to Waterhoof City.

“Jasper, are we going to the hotel or somewhere else first?” Julian asked.

“To the construction site of the skyscraper first. We can have lunch around the area before we get to
work in the afternoon,” Jasper replied.

Julian then changed directions and made their way to Waterhoof City city center.

This construction of the skyscraper was no secret in Waterhoof City.



Relatively capable companies and individuals all knew about it, as well as anyone who simply asked
around. They would immediately learn that some large company’s owner wanted to build the tallest
building in the world. As envious as these people often were, they were also fascinated to learn that
Somerland had produced such hidden talents.

After all, not everyone could construct the tallest building in the world just because they wanted to.

Soon, even commonfolk had gotten wind of the construction, and Waterhoof City quickly became
abuzz with news of the construction.

People who were more well-informed immediately took the opportunity to spread the little bits of gossip
they knew.

Something about the construction party being a trust-fund child from a formidable family, or about a
fight involving a huge amount of backing behind each party, and rumors about something some
powerful person did amidst all of this.

Gossip rapidly spread through the city.

Despite all this, the undisputable fact was that the tallest building in the world being built in their city
was something to be proud of.
