Chapter 1048

Half an hour later, Julian walked out of the room with a depressed project manager.

Ten minutes after that, Jasper exited the room too.

Once he walked out, the middle-aged couple immediately fell to their knees in front of Jasper.

Jasper recognized them to be the parents of the heavily injured young man that fell from the building.

“Please stand,” Jasper immediately helped the couple to their feet.

The middle-aged woman wiped her tears as she sobbed to Jasper. “Mr. Laine, you’re the biggest boss
here. You have to save our son.”

“Don’t worry, the company will take full responsibility since your son was working and got injured on our
construction site.”

“How’s he doing now?”

The security officer immediately ran over and replied courteously, “Mr. Laine, he’s already been sent to
the emergency room and his condition is stable. He’s not in life-threatening danger but he might be
plagued with lifelong disabilities after this. Worst case scenario, he might live the rest of his life in a
vegetative state.”

Jasper frowned slightly and asked, “All workers on site are insured, right?”

“Yes.”

The security officer hastily replied, “This is something the head office and Mr. Tucker stressed. We
could not afford to be frugal with the insurance, so every worker was given the best workmen
compensation and medical insurance available.”



“Good, but insurance claims tend to be processed slowly. The company will prepay all medical
expenses and send professionals to deal with the supplementary nutrition and escorting expenses.
There’s no need to be frugal with this either, it’s important that we at least keep our workers stress-free
if we can’t keep them safe.

“The company will also pay for everything the insurance claim cannot cover, and if the worker ends up
with a life-long disability, the company will assign them with another post once they’re ready to work
again. Don’t be stingy with the compensation package either, and make sure you follow the standards.”

The security officer was stunned. He wondered how much money the company was going to end up
paying according to that.

Ordinary companies might only give a sum to help pay the medical expenses and ask for the money
back once the insurance claim had been processed. This was also normally the full extent of their
compensation as well.

Construction workers were at a disadvantage, and legal awareness was shallow among the people
nowadays. Most workers did not know how to protect their own interests according to the law.

Those that did know their rights would most often end up getting scammed of their hard-earned money
by illegal middlemen. They also could not fight against wealthy and powerful companies.

Despite this, Jasper’s attitude on the matter was completely different.

The security officer, who was technically just another worker on-site, was genuinely grateful and moved
by this.

“Mr. Laine, on behalf of everyone working here, thank you,” The security officer spoke sincerely.



Jasper patted the security officer on the shoulder and replied, “You’ve done well handling the scene just
now. You’ll be the project manager from now on.”

The security officer flushed excitedly and replied, “Thank you, Mr. Laine! I’ll do my best!”

Jasper chuckled and turned to the grateful couple. “The situation’s very complicated now, but I promise
I’ll catch whoever’s pulling the strings behind this.

“Don’t worry about too much now, just go to the hospital and take care of your son. You’ll still be paid
during this period. Your son’s health is the most important thing right now.”

“Thank you, Mr. Laine. You’re a saint,” The middle-aged couple declared as they wiped their tears.

Jasper shook his head and sighed. “This wouldn’t have happened at all if I was a saint. No matter how
much money I give, it still won’t change the fact that your son might end up disabled. I only ask that you
do not blame me too much.

“I still have things to settle, so come to the company directly for the follow-up process.”
