Chapter 35

The business records he set for the past few decades had all become a joke.

If news about this spread out, he would become the joke of the entire province.

Furthermore, that person had a terrifying personal background.

Although Schuler Group was large, they did not have to go to such lengths to trick him.

All things considered, Dawson did not believe what Jasper was saying.

“What nonsense!”

Dawson shouted out in anger.

“Many things have happened in between. You’re just an outsider, you don’t know everything. How dare you conclude that it’s all a scam?

“Do you mean to say that I’m a fool with decades-long experience that’s proven to be useless since I got tricked so easily?”

If it was not for Wendy, who stood beside them with a shocked expression on her face, Jasper would have already turned around and left. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

The rise and fall of Schuler Group had nothing to do with him.

Initially, Jasper intended to take advantage of this opportunity to buy a stake in Schuler Group.

After all, Schuler Group had a mature supermarket supply chain system. After the year 2000, the population’s income would grow rapidly and this would lead to an uprise in the supermarket business. As long as one opened a store, they would be able to earn money even with their eyes closed.

Furthermore, the supermarket industry had a cash flow advantage that was incomparable to any other industry.

In his previous life, the man behind all of it succeeded in seizing the national market after taking over dozens of supermarkets from Schuler Group. When Jasper was reborn, he was already a hotshot with a market value of 80 billion dollars. His company was also within the top three domestic supermarket brands.

If he had the chance to buy a stake in Schuler Group right now, he may make an extremely large profit in the future.

However, Jasper was not worried about losing out on opportunities to earn money.

Therefore, Jasper was not really concerned about whether he could buy a stake in Schuler Group.

“Father!”

Wendy voiced out right then.

She looked at Dawson anxiously. “You’ve always told me not to be conceited when I achieve something and always remain humble. Learning isn’t a competition,” she said.

“Why don’t you understand this principle right now?” she added.

“I know Jasp well. He’s definitely not the type to speak carelessly or exaggerate things. He must have his reason for telling you all this. Why can’t you just remain level-headed and think through it?” she asked.

Looking at Wendy, Dawson huffed coldly and turned toward Jasper. “Alright. In that case, I’ll give you a chance to prove to me that this is a scam,” he said.

“If you’re right, I’ll apologize to you. Otherwise, leave Wendy,” he added.

“How hard can it be to get proof?”

Jasper smiled confidently.

“Firstly, the person who planned everything must have full authority over the group’s financial investment department. Mr. Schuler, you would only need to check what projects he has invested all the funds into during this period of time.

“I’m certain that those projects are just empty shells. He’s using them to gain ownership of the company’s funds.

“Next, the company lost its rights to its core supermarket business. Therefore, the other party must have transferred all the funds out from the newly established company. You can find out just by giving it a quick check,” Jasper said.

Dawson pinned his gaze on Jasper. After he finished speaking, Dawson immediately called his close associates and asked them to look into it.

Although Dawson did not say it out loud, he had begun to grow more and more suspicious.

He then made another phone call.

“Uncle Schuler, is there anything you need?”

The passionate and confident voice of a young man rang out from the other end of the phone.

“It’s nothing, Zayden. I’m playing golf at Thompson Golf Court. Wendy is back as well.”

“Wendy is back?

“Wait for a while, Uncle Schuler. I’ll be there soon!” the man said excitedly.

Putting down the phone, Dawson told Jasper, “I’ve called him over. Both of you can interrogate him personally. Don’t disappoint me.”
