Life at The Top novel Chapter 1166

Half an hour later, after a simple breakfast Jasper had Julian drive him to ICBS’ Waterhoof City branch’s conference room.

Vita met Jasper outside the conference room.

“How is it? Did I miss anything?” Jasper asked.

Vita quickly replied, “You’re just in time. The conference starts in five minutes.”

“The higher-ups sent a survey team to attend this conference. The main objective of today is to confirm the access policy. I’ve already sorted your ideas and handed them over, so they might ask you a few more questions about it.”

Jasper nodded. He was about to push open the door and enter when Vita lowered his voice and said, “Prince is inside too.”

Jasper arched his brow slightly. “He doesn’t have an online payment company not any relevant experience. What’s he doing inside?”

Vita smiled wryly and replied, “We can’t decline him because of his status. Soha’s vice president’s also inside with him.”

Jasper nodded. He pushed open the conference room door and walked in.

There were not too many people in the conference room, just five to six, but everyone looked stern.

Jasper immediately attracted everyone’s gaze once he entered the room.

Sitting on the left of the conference table was Prince. The man tinkered with the earring on his earlobe and

looked at Jasper neither dark nor brightly. Then, he sneered.

The middle-aged man sitting at the head of the table was very polite as he took the initiative to walk up and shake Jasper’s hand.

“Hello, Mr. Laine. I’m the leader of the survey team, Barnaby Wilcher. You can call me Mr. Wilcher.”

Jasper smiled and shook Mr. Wilcher’s hand. “Mr. Wilcher, please survey to your heart’s content.”

Barnaby laughed out loud and replied, “It’s our job. Well then, let’s begin the conference.”

Under Barnaby’s lead, Jasper sat on his right, coincidentally right opposite Prince.

The conference was about to begin when Prince suddenly said casually, “Wait. Before the conference starts, I have something to say.

“Since there’s no set policy for online payment yet, I think all running businesses should temporarily be put on hold. Only after the policy’s issued should the company be re-reviewed, after which qualifications and licenses can be distributed.”

Everyone looked at Jasper after hearing this.

Even an idiot could tell that Prince was targeting Jasper alone with his words.

This was because Jasper was the only person in the country officially operating an online payment system. Jasper would be forced to suffer a huge loss by putting his online payment system on hold until the policy was enforced, his company’s qualifications were re-reviewed, and a license was distributed to him.

Jasper was expressionless when he replied calmly, “Well then, Mr. Chavez, I wonder if you eat by injecting food into your stomach and waiting for it to digest before you take it out to chew?”

Muffled snorts were heard from the other attendees. They could not help but laugh at the response.

Even Mr. Wilcher, who was hosting the meeting, showed a tint of mirth on the corner of his lips.

Prince was the only one with a pitch-black expression. He stared at Jasper and asked, “What did you say, Jasper?”

“Don’t you know understand what I said?” Jasper asked back.

This conference had been a fight between him and Prince to begin with, and Jasper would not lose.
