Life at The Top novel Chapter 1153

Jasper was not harsh to Lisa at all in the hotel room. Instead, the man was very respectful.

“Tea or soft drinks?”

Lisa was shocked by Jasper’s respect.

“Do you have alcohol?”

Lisa must have felt that Jasper’s kindness was genuine from the man’s expression as she asked bravely.

With a smile, Jasper had the hotel staff bring up a bottle of red wine.

He drank tea while he watched Lisa tilt her head back and down two glasses of wine. Only then did Jasper ask, “Is there a reason you’re here?”

After two glasses, Lisa was evidently much more relaxed. Holding the glass, she nodded and said, “My dad told me to come here. We’ve already contacted a few sellers willing to take over after us and we’re in the middle of negotiating the specific costs. We’ll leave the country and go overseas after the trade is done.”

“Have you decided on a place?” Jasper asked.

“Australia, perhaps. I like it there.” Lisa smiled, her eyes filled with hope for the future.

“Good choice. There are quite a few people of Somer decent there, so it won’t be too lonely at least.” Jasper agreed with a nod.

The two chatted a little about everyday life like friends. This short conversation had caused a great change in Lisa’s emotions.

“To be honest, I came here prepared to be humiliated. I thought you’d scold or embarrass me, maybe even think of ways to torture me. I’ve prepared myself for all that,” Lisa looked at Jasper and spoke seriously.

Jasper took a sip of his concentrated tea and replied calmly, “I can do that, but I find no need to.”
