Life at The Top novel Chapter 169

“Hahaha.”

Michael Lane, who was seated at the table of big bosses, laughed out loud.

“Zachary, Jasp is pretty good!”

Michael openly expressed his admiration for Jasper.

The other bosses looked at Michael in distaste. Michael had always been on Zachary’s side. There was no need for him to act all supportive of him right now.

However, even they could not deny the fact that Jasper had made a brilliant move.

Zachary had a bright smile on his face. “This kid has always been like that,” he said.

Although he was speaking in a casual tone, his choice of words reflected just how much he admired and cherished Jasper.

Alas, the head of the Law family would not just address anyone as ‘this kid’.

This was how an elder addressed his or her junior.

Zachary and Michael were both in good spirits. In contrast, Bob Lancaster and Kennedy Langdon’s expressions did not look too good.

They had not personally joined in the exchange, but anyone could tell that both their sons had been defeated by Jasper.

Since their sons had been put to shame, what glory could they have?

The big bosses did not really care about 30 million Harbor Dollars. It was just that they had gained a profound insight into Jasper’s way of doing things.

The auction continued amidst the audience’s chatter and laughter.

Zane and Mitch suppressed their discontentment over their defeat and sat back in their seats.

According to the rules, all the wealthy people present in the function had to purchase at least one item from the auction. Otherwise, news about them being stingy and reluctant to do charity work may be published in tomorrow’s tabloids.

Therefore, although Zane and Mitch were already in a state of distress from the previous incident, they still called to bid when a blue and white porcelain bowl was presented before the audience at a starting price of 200,000 Harbor Dollars.

“200,000 Harbor Dollars,” Mitch called for a starting bid.

Nobody competed with him either. After all, he was a member of the four top families. Besides, everyone knew that he had just embarrassed himself badly and was currently in a bad mood. For their own sake, no one wished to offend him.

“1,000,000 Harbor Dollars.”

Unexpectedly, Jasper, who had not called for a bid since buying Angel’s Heart, made a bid.

It was beyond their expectations, but his actions were perfectly understandable.
