Life at The Top novel Chapter 1450

Zachary paced back and forth in the living room with his hands behind his back. This had become a habit of his whenever he needed to figure out something.

“This is difficult…”

After thinking for some time, Zachary turned his head to say to Jasper, “Because of our mutual ideology, it is difficult for the Easterners to penetrate the West, let alone the United States.”

“Although the Laws know a few members, they are all members of the senate. However, this is ultimately a matter for Congress, and they will be the ones who have any say. I am afraid it will be difficult for the Laws to do anything.”

Jasper smiled and said, “Uncle Law, I never wanted to avoid this catastrophe through lobbying.”

“It is possible that no amount of lobbying will work for this matter, especially since this is right up the United States’s alley. Even the stupid politicians won’t betray the majority to choose this very small profit that we’re able to provide.”

“What are you planning to do then?” Zachary lifted his eyebrow and asked.

Jasper turned his head to look at the old master.

Zachary was stunned. When he looked over to where Jasper was looking, he realized the old master was looking at him with a displeased look on his face.

Even though Zachary was already in his forties and near fifties and though he had taken charge of the Laws for many years, he would still feel like a guilty child who had made a mistake when the old master looked at him in dissatisfaction.

“Dad, why are you looking at me like that?”

The old master said angrily, “I regret handing the family to such a disappointment like you!”

“So what if they were from the United States? So what if they’re Wall Street? So what if they’re the Federal Reserve? They only have more brains and hands. Why are you being so cowardly after hearing their names?” Zachary felt ashamed when the old master criticized him.
