Life at The Top novel Chapter 231

Liliana snorted and said, “Oh, don’t be so full of yourself. Who do you think you are?”

As she said that, Liliana glanced at the magazine in Jasper’s hands and sneered disdainfully, “Look at you, reading Terra’s Financial Weekly like the rest of us. Only figures in Harbor City and big shots in the business world are featured on it. All a Mainlander like you can do is watch.”

“Liliana, you really need to get your eyes checked,” Queenie said with a sigh.

Liliana frowned upon hearing this and said coldly, “What do you mean?”

Queenie pulled out a copy of Terra’s Financial Weekly that was in front of her seat and tossed it to Liliana. “Look carefully at the man on the cover.”

Liliana looked over and noticed how the man on the cover resembled the Mainlander in front of her…

No, not just ‘resembled’ but it was the same person!

Liliana was taken aback abruptly, then turned her head in horror to look at Jasper. She then confirmed over and over again before realizing that they were indeed the same man.

“Who… Who are you?!” Liliana exclaimed.

“Queenie is an artist under Advent Entertainment Group and you’re her agent. Now that the group has been restructured, you should only do what you’re required to do as an agent, no?” Jasper said lightly.

“You’re now fired.”

In an instant, Liliana felt as though she had been struck by thunder and lightning. She looked at Jasper with a pale face, opened her mouth, and stammered, “You’re… You’re… Mr. Laine?!”

Queenie stood up, glanced at Liliana with an exceedingly indifferent expression, and said mildly, “Thanks for taking care of me all these years, Liliana. I wish you a safe journey in the future.”

As they spoke, Queenie came to Jasper’s side and greeted respectfully, “Nice to meet you, Mr. Laine.”

“Nice to meet you.”

Jasper nodded. He adopted a neutral feeling toward Queenie. In his opinion, Queenie was just a cash cow!

Queenie asked carefully, “Can I sit next to you, Mr. Laine?”

“Sure,” Jasper said lightly.

Most female celebrities in the entertainment circle were conscious about serving their bosses. Most of the time, unwritten rules were done out of mutual consent, and Queenie was no exception either.

Especially when Jasper was also the boss of her company. He carried more weight than anyone else.

At this moment, Jasper’s status could get eight out of ten female celebrities in Harbor City to readily line up to serve him if he wanted to.

Of course, Queenie had ideas too.

Jasper was young, handsome, influential, and wealthy.

If she could become acquainted with a boss like that, then why would she even bother working so hard? She could just be his very own canary without worrying about anything else.

Unfortunately for Queenie though, no matter how well she tried to perform after that, Jasper simply treated her in a lukewarm manner.

His indifference that kept her at arm’s length made Queenie realize just how naive she was.

How could a man like Jasper possibly fall in love with a woman like her?

“Mister… Mr. Laine, that was very wrong of me. I shouldn’t have said those things. I deserve to be punished. Please forgive me!”

Liliana stepped forward and pleaded, crying.

She knew better than anyone that an agent like her could offend anyone, even the celebrities themselves and the sponsors, but not the boss.

The moment she offended her boss, everything would be over.

“Be quiet.”

Jasper said softly, “I’m a gentleman. I don’t want to have anything to do with a woman who yells for no reason.”

“Pfft…”

Seated next to him, Queenie could not help but snigger after hearing what Jasper said. Jasper was not only young and capable, but he was pretty humorous too!
