Life at The Top novel Chapter 1057

They were glad when they saw Jasper getting put in his place.

“Alright.”

Norman cleared his throat and came out to maintain the peace.

He looked at Jasper and said, “Mr. Laine proposed to host this meeting. So, Mr. Laine, what do you want to talk to us about?”

Jasper said calmly, “A few simple things.”

After he said that, Jasper looked at Lisa and said, “I wonder what position Miss Lisa Gardner holds in this chamber of commerce.”

After he said this, the three members of the council looked at Norman at the same time. Meanwhile, Norman looked as if he was caught unprepared. He did not expect Jasper to ask this question at all.

“What’s wrong? Is it a very difficult question?” Jasper asked.

Norman frowned. Even though this was not a huge matter, he was genuinely scared that Jasper would cause trouble to him from some unexpected angles.

After pondering, Norman braced himself and said, “She’s my secretary.”

Norman was just saying this without thinking the matter through. However, it would not be a strange thing for a president like him to have a secretary. So he figured Jasper would not push this matter further.

After smiling at him, Jasper said, “So, Mr. Gardner, you like to ask the people you’re close to work with you?”

“Mr. Laine, is this related to our meeting today?” Norman asked, feeling infuriated.

“Yeah, we’re very busy. If there’s nothing significant, we should end this meeting and not waste any time,” Mr. Heron said with a dark face.

“If I mentioned it, it’s relevant to the meeting naturally.”

Jasper said calmly, “Firstly, I made myself clear at the start of this meeting. I asked people who have a position that’s higher than the rank of councilmen to participate, and since Lisa is just a secretary to the president, why is she here?”
