Life at The Top novel Chapter 1056

The three members of the council looked at each other. No one knew what happened.

There were bucketloads of stories about Jasper and their chamber of commerce and there were only stories of grudge and no grace.

They thought this meeting would be a collision that was as huge as a meteor crash. However, they did not think that the president would get cold feet before the meeting even started.

Not only that, but Jasper also had a modest and amiable look on his face. It seemed that he wanted to dispel bygone enmity.

Everyone in the room was experienced in the business world and none of them exposed their thoughts easily. So, everyone planned to wait and see.

“Since everyone’s here, let’s start the meeting,” Norman said with a calm look on his face.

After he said that, Norman realized something awkward.

Jasper was sitting on the seat of honor and only the person with the highest position would be sitting in that seat during meetings.

Normally, Norman would be sitting there.

However, Jasper sat down directly and left him at one side.

This made Norman feel extremely awkward.

“Mr. Laine, you’re in the wrong seat.”

One of the members of the council was Norman’s die-hard supporter. After confirming that Jasper would be representing Haddock Chamber of Commerce’s Waterhoof City Branch to attend the Asset Forum Conference, he communicated with Norman, so he said this bluntly.

“Oh? Where should I sit then?” Jasper asked.

“You’re just the vice president and you dare to sit in the seat of honor? Get down and sit in the seat below that,” this member of the council said boldly and confidently.

“You’re young so I remind you out of kindness. This is a very solemn and proper setting, not those unregistered companies that you’re operating illegally without following the rules.

“Maybe you can sit wherever you want over there but don’t be confused with your identity and position over here. You’ll suffer a disadvantage if you do.”
