Jasper did not know exactly where Grey’s residence was, but he flew in the helicopter for at least an hour before he felt it descend.
When Jasper looked down from the window with Celine, he saw a large stretch of snow-capped mountains in the distance as well as a forest and a lake nearby. The sight in front of them was like a fantasy.
Right below the helicopter, a manor that covered an area so large that it even accommodated a part of the forest appeared in their vision.
“This area should be calculated in hectares
Even Celine, who was a Maynard in North
America, sighed.
Jasper was about to make a joke when he heard what she said.
“It’s almost half the size of my house.”
Jasper turned his head and cursed at this disgusting world for being so hateful.
After the helicopter landed, Jasper and Celine got off the helicopter together. What they saw was a row of male and female servants standing on both sides while Grey and the woman whom Jasper rescued stood in the middle while holding the child.
“My friend!”
Grey laughed and opened his hands to greet him. Then, he gave Jasper a warm hug.
“You are the savior of my wife and child s o I must treat you well… Oh, is this beautiful woman your girlfriend?”
The sentence at the end was clearly a question directed at Celine.
Celine stood there and replied to Grey with a smile on her face, “Viscount Grey, it’s nice to meet you. My last name is Maynard and I am a Maynard from North America.”
This sentence stunned Grey.
Obviously, he was no stranger to the Maynards from North America.
“I see. Although I have not been in contact with your family, I know that your family has a lot of prestige in North America… Well, Jasper, are you from the same family as well?”
Celine was not someone who liked to show off her identity. She actively mentioned her identity to make Jasper look more important in front of Grey.
Obviously, this worked.
Judging from the changes in Grey’s eyes and tone, one would know that even in Finland, the Maynards from North America were well respected.
The more high-end a circle was, the smaller the restrictions between regions.
This was because everyone knew that with their power, it was very easy to start cross-border cooperation or cross-border fall-out.
“I’m not,” Jasper replied directly.
Grey nodded seemingly and then smiled, ”
Doesn’t matter. Jasper, you are the benefactor of my wife and child, so I brought them here to thank you.”
After Grey said that, the woman from Sunrise Land walked over sweetly with the child in her arms.
She bowed to Jasper respectfully and said,
“Thank you, Mr. Laine.”
Jasper smiled and said, “It’s nothing. It was just a slight effort…”
As Jasper said that, he pinched the cheek o f the child that was lying in his mother’s arms. He said with a grin, “How adorable.”
The little guy grinned at Jasper and then a big bubble blew out of his nose.
After everyone greeted each other, Grey led Jasper into his manor. To be precise, they went to the building he most often used to receive guests among the manor’s countless buildings.
“I have prepared dinner for the two of you, but there is still some time before it i s ready. Jasper, you said before that you need my help, we can talk about it now.”
After sitting down in the reception room, Grey went straight to the topic and spoke directly.
Jasper liked how Grey was so straightforward. After all, he did not come here for a dinner party.
