Life at The Top novel Chapter 2140

After hearing this, Jasper became even more embarrassed. He quickly stopped, “No, don’t say that. We’re all decent people, and it’s nothing like you said.”

“Tch, if you are considered decent, then truly decent people don’t exist in this world,” Celine rolled her eyes and said.

“Alright, didn’t you want me to accompany me to buy a birthday present? Let’s go now,” Celine said and walked out.

Jasper quickly followed, and the two went to the antique street in Nine Dragon Town. This was a relatively famous antique market in Harbor City. It had existed since more than 100 years ago, and many storefronts were time-honored shops with well-known reputations. Even so, if customers who did not frequent often wanted to get something, they had to be cautious.

After all, there were few genuine products worldwide, while most goods were fakes and high-quality imitations.

“We’re here. Let’s get out of the car now.”

Jasper parked near the antique street and got out of the car with Celine.

Neatly arranged antique storefronts stood on both sides of the street, ranging from large to small. Some of them even occupied two or three stories and were filled with all kinds of antiques and calligraphy.

Celine stood on the street and glanced around. Then, she lamented, “I’ve never seen such a wide variety of antique shops when I was in Swallow Capital. It seems that what they said is true. Tomb raiders stole the goods from the mainland of Somerland and distributed them to Harbor City and abroad more than a hundred years ago. Hence, it is rare to see genuine goods in the local Swallow Capital market…”

She noticed that the store on her left was pretty well-decorated as she spoke. Then, she turned to Jasper and said, “Let’s go to that store first, shall we?”

Jasper nodded. “Okay…”

After speaking, he followed her into the store.

The owner and a staff member were the only ones in the shop. Both of them were middle-aged men over forty years old. After seeing the guests, the staff member quickly greeted them warmly and asked, “Sir, Madam, please come in. What are you looking for?”
