Life at The Top novel Chapter 2027

Lord Alvarado felt embarrassed, and he coughed to try and hide his embarrassment.

“What happened over at the United States stock market after I fainted?” Jasper changed the subject.

The little prince thought back to that day. “Nothing too big. Their market didn’t crash, but we earned quite some funds from them. We already made back what we put in at the beginning.”

“You decide what you want to do next.”

Jasper nodded. It seemed like the remaining funds have already been transferred to him. His chest felt much lighter as he looked at the four others in the room.

He would love for life to go on like this, but there was no promising how long this leisurely peace would last.

“Oh, right. I almost forgot,” The little prince suddenly said, “There was a letter from Swallow Capital. To commend you, Lionel, and I for our contributions.”

“It’s only right to commend to the two of you. None of this would have been possible without you two,” Jasper said with a smile. This glory did indeed belong to the two of them.

The little prince and Lord Alvarado shared a look and nodded.

Then the five of them started to chat idly.

***

In the blink of an eye, two days had passed.

Old Master Law and a few government higher-ups have also come to visit during this time. Those higher-ups were extremely monumental figures in Somerland, so they did not stay for too long. After a short chat and commendation, they quickly left.

Jasper stayed in the quiet room and looked outside the window. He could not help but lament. It had been a long time since he felt such peace. Ever since the battle with the United States began, every day was a busy day. Only now did he realize how nice it would be to live a quiet and peaceful life.

Jasper originally wanted to be discharged two days later, but he gave in when Wendy strongly re quested he stay admitted.

Once Jasper was finally discharged, he finally felt comfortable taking a deep breath of fresh non-disinfected air.

“It’s much more comfortable outside the hospital, isn’t it?”

Along with Wendy, Henry had also come to fetch Jasper. “Of course. The air outside is much better.”

Jasper enjoyed the outside air greedily.

“Do you want to eat something first? Or do you want to wait until dinner tonight?” Wendy asked.

Just as Jasper was about to reply, he saw a familiar silhouette out of the corner of his eye. At the same time, that person turned to look at Jasper as well.

The two shared a look and smiled at the same time. Jasper replied softly, “Looks like I’m not going back so soon.”

Wendy and Henry followed Jasper’s gaze and immediately grew wary when they saw who it was.
