Chapter 459

“This is an unfortunate misunderstanding. I initially thought Southface River was worth developing and
had the south bank as my first choice. Unfortunately, luck wasn’t on our side, and the developmental
rights for the south bank have already been claimed. Thus, we can only go for the second best choice
now and develop the north bank.

“I never thought that you would be in charge of developing the south bank, Jasper.”

Ian had a slight smile on his face as he replied.

Jasper chuckled. “I think it’s quite a good thing. I was just thinking about how unbalanced it would be if
the north bank were to be a desolate area while the south bank became a modern city after the project
is finished. It’s a good thing now that your company has come forth and expressed interest in
developing the north bank.”

“It’s good if you think about things that way. However, please don’t think we’re targeting anyone by
coming here. We don’t mean it that way,” Ian said as he smiled.

Jasper laughed. “Of course not.”

As the two chatted and laughed, everyone else spectating could sense the hidden edge in the
peaceful, jovial atmosphere.

Including Sean, everyone from JW Real Estate had a hostile look in their eyes as they looked at Ian
and Norman.

It was obvious they were here to take their business away from them and launch a fight against them.
How could they have come with good intentions?

The atmosphere started turning weird too.



Just then, the person in charge from Nauritius City’s government smiled and said, “Mr. Laine, you’re
one of the up and coming young entrepreneurs in the province. Now that Mr. Hull and Mr. Gardner
have set their hopes on the future of the north bank, it would do both parties good to cooperate.”

Jasper glanced at the person in charge and smiled slightly as he said, “We’re all just going about our
own business. Of course, I would never say no to anything that would help boost the province’s
economy.”

The person in charge’s face lit up when he heard that and said, “Mr. Hull and Mr. Gardner came up with
a proposal some time ago. They plan to connect the north and south banks of the Southface River. A
bridge will have to be built across the river to make that happen. What are your thoughts on that, Mr.
Laine?”

Jasper said appreciatively, “That’s a good idea! Once the bridge is built and open for access, the north
and south banks of the Southface River will be connected. That will greatly boost the economy of the
north bank. Of course, I approve of it.”

Everyone’s expression changed the minute he said that.

Everyone with a clear eye could tell that Ian and Norman had suggested building a bridge so they
would also receive a share in the profits earned from the development of the south bank of Southface
River.

The north bank was desolate because of the Southface River. It restricted the development of the few
districts there.

Even an idiot could tell that the south bank would become the new province capital once the project on
the south bank was completed. It would outshine all the other areas in the province.



Thus, if the bridge was constructed, all the north bank needed to do then was sit back and look pretty
to receive a share of the profits.

It did not make sense for Ian and Norman to walk away with such benefits after Jasper had invested so
much money into the project.

Thus, even those from city hall were ready to watch Jasper strongly oppose and even get into a fight
with Ian and Norman over the proposal.

However, Jasper surprised everyone by immediately agreeing to the idea.

“Mr. Laine, is that what you really think?” the person in charge asked.

Jasper smiled and said, “I’m from Southeast Province, and I feel responsible for the development of the
province. Why would I reject a plan to further develop the province? Of course, I’m being sincere about
this.”

The person in charge sighed. “Alright, alright. The heroes are becoming younger and younger. No one
can match the amount of generosity you have, Mr. Laine.”

Jasper chuckled as he glanced at Ian and Norman before saying, “However, I have two tiny requests
and suggestions.”

Ian and Norman, who had not spoken a word since, glanced at each other. Their hearts skipped a beat.

They knew Jasper was no idiot and there was no way he had not realized why they proposed building
the bridge.
