Life at The Top novel Chapter 2118

According to Jasper’s experience in his past life, he knew that soon, conflicts would frequently break out in Harbor City under the instigation of the United Kingdom, and this would cause a lot of headaches for Swallow Capital.

One of the most critical factors that led to this situation was that Swallow Capital did not strengthen its rule over Harbor City from the very beginning. And this time, Jasper hoped to fundamentally prevent such a thing from happening. If he got Harbor City to side with the mainland, then nothing would happen, no matter how the United Kingdom or the United States tried to incite them in the future.

As the afternoon tea ended, Jasper asked again, “By the way, Miss Maynard, where are you staying? Why don’t I send you back?”

Celine naturally would not reject Jasper’s kindness. “I’m staying at the Hilton now.”

When Jasper heard this, he said, “Oh, really? That’s such a coincidence. Wendy and I also live there now.”

As soon as she heard that Wendy and Jasper were staying together, Celine felt an inexplicable sense of loss in her heart, and her tone also became much calmer.

“That’s such a coincidence! Well, I’m a little tired after a day of shopping. You can send me back now,” Celine said and called the waiter for the bill.

The two then left the restaurant and drove back to the Hilton Hotel.

Unfortunately, when Jasper parked his car at the hotel entrance and was about to walk in with Celine, he ran into Wendy, who came back to pick up something last minute and was about to go out.

“Wendy, aren’t you with Anna? Why did you come back alone?” Jasper asked with a smile.

Wendy had something to tell Jasper, but when she saw Celine standing beside Jasper, her face fell, and she said coldly, “I’m a grown woman, and I have legs. I can go wherever I want to go. Are there any rules saying that I can only stay with Anna?”

Jealousy and hostility were laced in her words. Jasper was not bothered by this. He said with a grin, “Right, you’re right…”

At this moment, Celine went over magnanimously and greeted Wendy, “Long time no see, Ms. Schuler!”
