Life at The Top novel Chapter 1376

Jasper held Wendy as they whispered sweet nothings to each other. Most of the conversation was just idle gossip. Whenever they were in this state, they would not kill the mood by talking about work. Instead, they would just ramble on and on mindlessly.

However, this was the very thing that would strengthen their relationship.

As Jasper chatted with Wendy, he focused on the news about the United States.

As expected, the United States government released a detailed news report about this terrorist attack immediately. Even though they did not have the final number of casualties, the number of people who were rescued and the number of corpses that were discovered had reached a terrifying number.

From this official announcement, most people could feel the extreme rage of the United States government. After what happened today, the United States was on high alert. Everyone could sense that the United States would not let this rest easily.

Meanwhile, Jasper did not pay much attention to the news about politics and the military.

Instead, he noticed a statement on the announcement.

“Now, regarding the time of this terrorist attack and the huge impact it had on the economy of the country, the joint conference of the financial heads invited the chief economic team, as well as the Federal Reserve’s president, Greenspaner, to discuss the next steps.”

A huge storm was hidden behind this statement. Moreover, there was also the battle that was caused by authorities fighting and scheming against each other in the dark.

“We can’t be sure how long the discussion on the appropriate countermeasures will be.”

Jasper murmured as he felt Wendy breathing steadily in his arms. When he lowered his head, he noticed that she had fallen asleep while leaning her head against his shoulder without him even realizing.

After Jasper chuckled lightly, he lifted Wendy gently and stood up to walk out of the room.

Because it was still early, he saw that some of the employees who came early had already started working. When the employees saw their boss carrying his wife to the office carefully, they broke into smiles.

The male employees were mostly simple minded and naive, so when they saw this scene, they forgot to walk away, and instead, they just stood there dumbly and watched.

Meanwhile, the female employees were heckling Jasper.

Even though they did not dare to make any noise to wake Wendy, the envy and mockery in their eyes was unconcealable.

Jasper was in a good mood too, and he chuckled inaudibly as he carried Wendy into the office with a smile.

Then, he carried her to the small lounge in his office. Jasper requested this lounge when they were renovating the office. There was a toilet and bed inside, so it could be treated as a small room that could be used at any time.

After Jasper placed Wendy in bed, be washed his face. When he felt refreshed, he went back to work.

The issue had not yet ended, so Jasper was still on edge. He needed to watch any movements, and simultaneously could not stop handling business in the office. He needed to take care of a lot of documents and could not delay the tasks any longer.

The sun rose in Harbor City. The bustling city was the liveliest when it was about 9 o’clock in the morning.

A villa district in Repulse Bay that was not open to the public was transformed into a high end club.

There was a swimming pool, a golf course, and also a standard racecourse. At one point, this was the place that all the paparazzi in Harbor City wanted to sneak into.

However, even the paparazzi that were known to be pervasive and daring in their reporting were not able to enter this place. Even if something were to happen here, it would not make it to the news.

Harbor City was heaven for capitalists. The capitalists were in control of this place, and they were also the same people who controlled the Harbor City media.

After this place was founded, its name was the only thing that was ever leaked to the public, Empire Meet.
