From Trash to Treasure: The Sinclair Family's Beloved Genius Chapter 209: So You’re the Man Who Was the Professor’s Bigge
Professor Myers had indeed never ntioned it to Chloe Sinclair.
But Chloe Sinclair vaguely rembered Professor Myers once talking about a student from ten years ago. He had studied Physics for just one year, finished first in the entire departnt, and then abruptly left to go into business.
Looking at Jasper Shaw’s smile, Chloe Sinclair was now quite certain that he was the student Professor Myers had been talking about.
A hint of a smile touched her eyes. "So you’re the one who was Professor Myers’s greatest disappointnt."
Professor Myers ntioned this student every year to his class of new freshn.
Jasper Shaw had been busy with work these past few years, flying all over the country every day. He had no idea how Professor Myers was portraying him to the new students.
Chloe Sinclair, however, did.
Jasper Shaw had beco famous at a young age, and not just for being the top scorer on the college entrance exams. He was also thriving in the business world despite his youth.
Even titans of industry treated him as an equal.
To outsiders, Jasper Shaw seed glamorous and dazzling, turning heads wherever he went. But only Chloe Sinclair knew that his journey hadn’t been easy.
Back then, Jasper Shaw’s decision to change his major was likely born of necessity.
Otherwise, Professor Myers wouldn’t always use Jasper Shaw as a cautionary tale for the freshn.
Chloe Sinclair stayed at the company for nearly three hours. Before she left, she found herself holding a large bag stuffed with snacks that Jasper Shaw and Ian Winters had given her.
"Wait."
At the company entrance, Jasper Shaw personally saw Chloe Sinclair downstairs.
Just as Chloe Sinclair was about to leave, Jasper Shaw produced an exquisite little box from out of nowhere.
However, the sll wafting from it was anything but complintary.
Even though Chloe Sinclair couldn’t see what was inside, she could identify it by the sll alone.
Sure enough, Jasper Shaw pressed the small cake into Chloe Sinclair’s hands, looking at her expectantly like he was hoping for praise. "I bought this for you just now. You said you liked it."
Chloe Sinclair: "..."
Regardless, Chloe Sinclair accepted the gesture.
’But,’ she thought, ’I have to find a tactful way to tell him never to give a girl a durian-flavored cake in the future.’
’Because it really stinks!’
Chloe Sinclair fled as if escaping, not looking back even once.
Because she was carrying the little cake, Chloe Sinclair didn’t dare take a bus or a cab, afraid the sll would perate everything. At the sa ti, she couldn’t bear to throw the cake away, so she ran all the way back to her apartnt.
The corporate headquarters was far from her apartnt; Chloe Sinclair jogged for three hours before she finally made it ho.
The first thing Chloe Sinclair did when she got ho was grab a change of clothes and jump into the shower. When she got out, it was still early, so she took a half-hour nap before heading to her evening self-study session.
The next day, Chloe Sinclair told Joel Quincy and Nathan Trenton that she had secured a sponsor.
Both of them were a bit surprised.
"So soon? Who is it?" Nathan Trenton asked worriedly.
It was no wonder they were worried; scams were rampant these days.
A company would be doing well to have one billion available as liquid capital, let alone an investnt of several billion.
"You should know him, Nathan," Chloe Sinclair said slowly. "His na is Jasper Shaw."
"What? Jasper Shaw?"
The man’s voice, usually unfazed by anything, was filled with astonishnt.
Nathan Trenton was naturally familiar with the na, but it was precisely because he was so familiar with it that he found it incredible.
’Who was Jasper Shaw?’
’That was Jasper Shaw, the man who had dominated the business world for a decade!’
’The man who had single-handedly and ruthlessly overthrown his own father to beco chairman!’
’How could Chloe Sinclair possibly know him?’
