Life at The Top
Life At The Top Chapter 1870

"They are going to go all the way to the

end with Jasper without caring about the consequences. All of the families have

shaken their own foundations while

risking huge losses just to lift Jasper up. I

think those old farts have all gone crazy!" Sawyer cursed in a low voice full of resentment.

Kennedy glanced at Sawyer and the

corners of his mouth rose into a slight

curve that was not easy to detect.

He knew why Sawyer was so angry,

It was because Sawyer lost his seat on the

committee during the Harbor City

Business Federation election.

The organization was established decades

ago and dated back to when Harbor City

was still under the jurisdiction of the

United Kingdom.

At that time, Harbor City copied the

United Kingdom's model. In order to

facilitate the management of the increasingly prosperous Harbor City business community, the United Kingdom

established this organization under the Harbor City government.

This organization had been serving as a committee member of Harbor City's top family since its establishment. It could even be regarded as a recognition of top families by the Harbor City government. Only by becoming a member of this committee could one be qualified to call themselves rich and powerful.

However, in this election, Sawyer lost the

committee seat that the Atticus family had maintained for the last 50 years. Although this was only a nominal

honorary seat, the more deeply rooted the

rich and famous were, the more they needed this.

After all, Harbor City was not as good as the mainland where there was vast land and rich resources. Harbor City was too small, and the economy was outrageously developed. Therefore, the competition among the rich was also very high. Thus, i f you were low-key, you would soon be forgotten.

The Atticus family's current situation was

not looking good, and at the same time,

they were being boycotted by Harbor City.

It would be very strange if they were still in a good mood.

Sawyer turned his head when he seemed to have noticed Kennedy's sarcasm. Then, he asked with a smile, "I haven't seen your father for a long time. I heard he's recuperating."

Kennedy was taken aback. He narrowed his eyes and said faintly, "My father is getting older, and he has been recuperating for more than a year and a half. If there's nothing urgent, we seldom disturb him."

Currently, the strongest asset in rich families like theirs might not be wealth or power. Instead, it was the presence of their old master, who may or may not still be alive.

As long as the old master was still around, the family would stand tall and nothing would happen.

Why were the Laws still at the height of their powers even though it felt as if they were slowly distancing themselves from the rest of the bigwigs in Harbor City?

It was because Old Master Law was still

around.

And even among all the old masters, Old Master Law was still the absolute top. As for Wallace, the old master of the W. Langdons, he was indeed not in good shape in recent years. The old master's condition plummeted in an instant when the W. Langdons were isolated. He was still lying in the hospital and had not come out until now.

Although the doctor said that there were n

o life-threatening conditions for the time

being, everyone could feel that the old

man's life was slowly depleting, and it was only a matter of time until he passed. Moreover, this kind of thing had to be kept secret in the family, but there was no airtight wall in the world. No matter how secret it was, it was still a fact that the old master had not shown his face for a long

time, and it would eventually be noticed by

y someone with ulterior motives like the Atticus family.

"You're right. The old master is getting

older, so it's better not to disturb him with these annoying things," Sawyer said with a smile.

"By the way, I know a medical team and they are the world's top experts for treating heart failure. Would you like to introduce them to you?"

As soon as he said this, Kennedy's expression tightened, and then he turned his head to look at Sawyer coldly.
