Life at The Top novel Chapter 1054

In the meeting room, Lisa sat icily on of the chairs by the side while Jasper took the head seat comfortably.

“The environment here’s quite nice,” Jasper commented.

“Haddock Chamber of Commerce’s wealth isn’t what a nouveau riche like you can imagine. This isn’t even much, you should look at the Chamber’s headquarters if you want something grand,” Lisa spoke disdainfully as if to a country bumpkin.

“Oh? Is that so? I’ve seen Haddock’s Chamber of Commerce’s Waterhoof City branch’s station before. I don’t remember seeing the wealth you were referring to though. That three-story building was quite the pitiful sight.”

“As for the headquarters. I haven’t been there before but I’ve been to Old Master Hurlbutt’s. It’s luxurious, I have to say, but there weren’t as many doors as you said,” Jasper replied calmly.

Lisa clenched her jaw. She felt like she had been belittled by Jasper again.

Jasper had singlehandedly destroyed the previous Haddock Chamber of Commerce’s Waterhoof City branch station.

So there was no right to brag about the new station to Jasper no matter how beautiful it looked.

Not to mention that Jasper was the Vice President of the branch.

Lisa felt extremely uncomfortable at that line of thought.

She wondered if the spiritual leader of Haddock’s Chamber of Commerce, Old Master Gale Hurlbutt’s eyes was worsening with age. How could he have Jasper, an enemy, be the Vice President?

As they spoke, the conference room doors opened to reveal Norman.

At the door, Norman glanced at Lisa darkly before he turned to Jasper.

Norman scoffed and spoke, “How arrogant of you, Mr. Laine. You haven’t been here for the earlier half of the year, yet the moment you come you hold a meeting with all members of the council. What’s this, are you trying to get rid of me?”
