Life at The Top novel Chapter 558

The end of the year was soon approaching. Jasper’s family had three important meals that they would always have at this time of the year.

The first one was on the 24th, Christmas Eve dinner.

Another one was on the 25th, Christmas lunch.

The last one was on the 26th, Boxing Day breakfast.

The south had just about the same traditions, but they just had the meals at different times of the day.

There were only a few days left before Christmas. Wendy had to return to the province to accompany Dawson. After all, even though he had not said anything about being left alone in the province, everyone knew he hoped his daughter would accompany him during this special day.

Jasper began preparing this year’s Christmas Eve dinner after he said goodbye to Wendy.

Although the Laine family wasn’t huge, as they were from the village, there were relatives who moved around and they all still kept close contact with each other.

Moreover, because they knew he had made it big this year, the majority of Jasper’s relatives suggested having this year’s Christmas Eve dinner at Tefa City for a multitude of reasons.

Sally and Charlie would not let go of this opportunity to have bragging rights in front of their relatives. Thus, they immediately agreed and expressed that they would pay for everyone’s room and board.

Jasper did not mind. It did not matter if they were his relatives or tribespeople. Men could not survive in the world alone.

Jasper was willing to keep in touch with them too, but on the condition that they did not treat him as a cash cow just because he was rich now. If they did that, he would ignore them.

In his past life, he had seen plenty of people who held grudges because their relatives did not share their earnings with them after making it big in the world.

When faced with such relatives, Jasper’s only reaction was to ask them to get as far away from him as possible.
