Free Web NovelChapter 208: Chapter 208: He, Jasper Shaw, Is the Man Chloe Sinclair Cares About the Most
Chloe Sinclair’s pupils contracted, and her mouth fell slightly ajar. She thought she must have been hearing things. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
"You... what did you just say?"
’Jasper Shaw hadn’t even asked any questions. How could he just agree like that?’
Chloe Sinclair looked as if she had seen a ghost. Her usually placid expression was suddenly a fascinating sight to behold.
Jasper Shaw found it amusing. "I said yes. As long as it’s a project you’re involved in, I’ll invest."
He paused for a moment before continuing, "No matter how much it costs, I will always believe in you."
He would support his girl unconditionally.
However, that was not what Chloe Sinclair was thinking.
She assumed Jasper Shaw didn’t understand the prospects of nuclear fusion, so she explained, "Nuclear fusion isn’t a well-regarded field right now. If you invest, it will be a huge risk."
It’s possible to spend all that money and have nothing to show for it.
"And what do you think of the prospects for nuclear fusion?"
Chloe Sinclair was taken aback for a moment, then said seriously, "They’re very good. After all, our current energy sources will run out one day. When that happens, photovoltaics and nuclear fusion will become the essential resources we need to survive."
Far fewer people were researching nuclear fusion now than in her past life. But Chloe Sinclair knew with certainty that in five years, Meridia’s developments in nuclear fusion would put them at the forefront of global technology, throwing open the doors to a new era of Science.
In that year, more than half of Zenthia’s scientists would sign contracts to move to Meridia.
In that year, nuclear Physics research would spring up everywhere. Ten years after that, an endless stream of new research topics would emerge, ushering in a golden age of discovery.
"My professor’s nuclear fusion project was approved by the higher-ups, but we’re in desperate need of funding right now. We have no idea how much capital it will take to succeed with the research, and I..."
Chloe Sinclair was about to say more, but Jasper Shaw cut her off.
"I’ve actually been considering an investment in nuclear fusion for a long time. The state of domestic research is, frankly, a mess. But if you’re the one leading it, I’m willing to take a chance."
Chloe Sinclair raised an eyebrow. "Because I’m your savior?"
Jasper Shaw gave a slight nod, his voice unconsciously alluring. "Mhm."
"Because you’re my little savior."
Chloe Sinclair was flustered once again, and for a moment, she was at a loss for words.
After a long moment, once the blush had faded from her cheeks, she finally looked up. Her dark eyes were serious as she deliberately changed the subject. "I have some personal reasons for pursuing this experiment. My professor has dedicated his life to nuclear Physics research, and his health is deteriorating by the day. Right now, his experiment has hit a bottleneck. It’s impossible to complete without redesigning the apparatus."
"You might not see a quick return on this investment, but I can guarantee that within five years, I can create a fortune for you that’s hundreds of times greater than your initial stake."
Jasper Shaw paused. He seemed uninterested in the money Chloe Sinclair was talking about. Instead, his tone held a note of good fortune.
"I’m just glad I was the first person you thought of."
Jasper Shaw’s thoughts suddenly turned to Chloe Sinclair’s most senior fellow student, and an incredible idea welled up inside him—one that even he found hard to believe. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
’He, Jasper Shaw, was the man Chloe Sinclair cared about most right now!’
The two continued to chat for a while longer, and Chloe Sinclair was surprised to discover that Jasper Shaw’s knowledge of Physics was quite impressive.
’A Genius, through and through!’
As if reading her mind, Jasper Shaw’s dark eyes held a faint smile. "Didn’t your old professor ever tell you?"
Chloe Sinclair froze, a flicker of confusion in her eyes. "Tell me what?"
"That my first major, ten years ago, was Physics. You mean Professor Myers never mentioned me to you?"
