Life at The Top novel Chapter 784

By the car stood Celine who greeted him with a mesmerizing smile.

“So handsome,” Celine praised as Jasper walked over.

Jasper smiled and replied, “A woman’s beauty lies in her features and her aura, but it takes more than a man’s appearance to look handsome.”

“Is that you showing off how successful you are now?” Celine asked Jasper.

It was a beautiful sight to behold.

Under everyone’s inquisitive gaze and cameras flashing, Jasper knew better than to flirt with Celine here. So he merely smiled and bent down to get in the car.

“Wuss,” Celine muttered and turned to get in as well.

The line of cars began to move and it broke past the crowd and made its way to Nasdaq Center.

Jasper’s hotel was only five minutes on foot away from Nasdaq Center, but Colossal Investments had already arranged cars for the occasion.

After all, this group of people was going to ring the Nasdaq Opening Bell. How could they simply just walk over?

It took a couple of minutes and the line of cars arrived.

“There’ll be a ceremony later and Nasdaq’s president, Franklin, will come out in a show of how much they value a Somerland enterprise. It’s more political than business, so don’t think too much about it. It’s just formality,” Celine whispered to Jasper.

Jasper nodded in understanding.

The Exchange Center was in a frenzy.

While every new company going public on Nasdaq’s market would ring its opening bell, they were all treated differently. Sena’s was of a much higher caliber, for the host of the ceremony was Nasdaq’s president, a seventy-year-old man called Franklin.

“Welcome to the United States, to Wall Street, and to Nasdaq, young man from the ancient Somerland.” Franklin’s words were flowery and he smiled as he shook Jasper’s hand.

Jasper smiled softly and replied courteously, “Thank you for the kind welcome, President Franklin. I’m sure I’ll achieve what I want here.”

Franklin clapped Jasper’s shoulder affectionately and spoke, “Miracles happen all the time here. I’m sure you’ll achieve what you want.”

“There has been a lot of news about you these days. I would’ve bought some of Sena’s shares as well if not for my job not allowing me to participate in share trading,” Franklin joked.
