Life at The Top novel Chapter 1952

Dean was in luck.

By the time he rushed all the way from

Suesville to Nauritus City, it was half an

hour before the afternoon opening.

Jasper was eating when he received a

report from downstairs that someone

named Dean wanted to see him.

Wendy was still in Harbor City, so no one

would bring him lunch anymore. Hence,

Jasper and Baz could only have lunch

prepared by the team of chefs from a five

star hotel.

Jasper was picking at the food in

dissatisfaction. Then, he said without

looking up, “Let him come up and ask

him to come here directly.”

A few minutes later, under the guidance of

the staff, Dean appeared in front of Jasper.

“Have you eaten yet?”

Although there had been some conflicts

between them, in Jasper’s view, they were

all adults. Thus, personal grievances and

things like that did not exist in their

world. Instead, they were all here for

profit.

Now that the previous matter had been

settled and mutual interests had been

taken care of, there was nothing to worry

about.

If he was here, he should sit down and

talk if he had something to say. If he did

not, he should leave after the meal.

This was not a good sign.

At the same time, it secretly surprised

Dean.

Jasper was even more cunning than when they were in contact a few months ago.

Soon, the sumptuous and delicious dishes were served. Dean also picked up the fork and took a few bites. When he saw that Jasper was not going to say anything, he sighed and spoke after putting down the fork, “Mr. Laine, I think you must know the reason why I came here this time.”

“I don’t like guessing. I like to say whatever’s on my mind.”

Jasper wiped his mouth and glanced at the

time while he was at it. After this obvious gesture, he smiled at Dean and said, ” There are still 20 minutes before the opening. I don’t have much time to accompany you.”

Dean gritted his teeth slightly. Then, he looked at Jasper and said, “Okay, I’ll go straight to the point.

“This morning in the market, the Haddock Chamber of Commerce suffered heavy losses. With the exception of the textile industry, our other industries have suffered a lot. More than 60% of the listed companies belonging to the Haddock Chamber of Commerce have reached the limit down. The Haddock Chamber of Commerce won’t be able to hang on for

long if this continues. So, I was entrusted by others to come to ask you for help.”

“Entrusted by others?”

Jasper smiled and asked, “Is it Gale, or

someone else?”

“It’s not my grandpa.”
