Life at The Top novel Chapter 854

There was not a single soul in Southeast Province’s banking industry who did not know about his close relationship with Jasper. They would gain Jasper’s support if they managed to get ahold of him.

However, John knew he could not get too big for his britches no matter what other people thought.

Which was why today’s meeting was taking place. He wanted to know what Jasper’s thoughts were.

He would have to give up the idea if Jasper did not agree. After all, Agricultural Bank could easily go back on their promise to give him the position if they did not receive Jasper’s support. John was not a foolish person and knew he did not yet have the experience nor ability to fight against the superiors in Agricultural Bank.

Things would be totally different if he had Jasper’s support, however. No matter how many cronies were in Agricultural Bank, Jasper would be able to defeat them all with just one of the many companies he owned. No one could hold it against him.

“Alright then. I’ll get back to them tomorrow,” John said happily.

Jasper picked up his cup of coffee and gently clinked it against John’s as he smiled, saying, “I’ll congratulate you in advance on your promotion.”

John suppressed his excitement and happiness as he waved his hands, saying, “No, I still have to hand in my resignation letter and hand over my work before I familiarize myself with Agricultural Bank. It’ll take at least a month or two before everything is finalized.”

Jasper was just about to speak when his phone suddenly rang.

It was from an unfamiliar number he had never seen before.

When Jasper answered the call, a familiar sensual voice rang out.

“Mr. Jasper Laine, you returned to Somerland without so much as a goodbye after you used me. You just wanted to have a good time without taking any responsibility, right?”

Jasper nearly spat his coffee onto John’s face when he heard what Celine said.

“Watch your words. What you said can easily cause misunderstandings.”

Jasper had a befuddled expression on his face when he spoke, but there was a barely detectable trace of happiness in his voice.

John, who was sitting opposite him, raised his eyebrows slightly before his lips curled upward into a meaningful grin.

What sort of women could make men indescribably happy when they received a call from them?

It might be a girlfriend they were in an intimate relationship with.

It might be a mistress of theirs they had gotten together with after getting married.

It might be their daughter.

There was no fourth option.

“Misunderstandings? Who would misunderstand? Do you care what other people think of you, Mr. Jasper Laine?” Celine asked in a light-hearted tone.

“Here’s a chance for you to repent. Come over to the airport now.

“A traffic accident happened in front of Nauritus City International Airport, causing a huge traffic jam to occur.”

Celine was sitting in a brand new Audi TT as she spoke on the phone without a care in the world. Parked in front of her was a BMW 7 Series that had been rear-ended and badly scratched. The owner of the car was a young man who was currently screaming at Celine through the glass window of the Audi TT.
