Life At The Top Chapter 1883

To be honest, if it were possible, he did

not want to deal with these political

families.

For no other reason than because he knew without a shadow of a doubt that the current term was coming to an end, and when they elected the president for the following term, these so-called political families would be the first to be attacked. That president can't bear having grit in

his eyes.

Moreover, it was even scarier because of

the Brown family's unique position.

Those who knew, knew.

"Here's my card. You can contact me via

the number listed here at any time."

As Mr. McNeal handed Jasper his card, he

said, "But my work is quite demanding,

o it's normal if I can't be contacted by anyone on the outside when I have emergency meetings that usually span between three to five hours. You can contact Mr. Mason too. He's worked for m

e for many years, and I trust him with

many things, big and small."

Jasper understood what he was hinting at and nodded. Ms. Garcia's pleasant, smiling face flashed through his mind as he forced himself to put his thoughts to rest and say, "Alright, I understand. Thank you for your care, Mr. McNeal."

No matter what, a card that gave him a direct connection to the second-in-chief in finance would be worth thousands wherever he went.

Jasper got up and bid goodbye after sitting

for a while longer.

The economic forum would be starting in a few hours, and as the host, he still had a lot of preparatory work. Moreover, Mr. McNeal was a busy man who had traveled a long way to be here. Naturally, he had to ensure Mr. McNeal had some time to rest. Jasper's phone rang not long after he left

Mr. McNeal's room..

A wry smile appeared on Jasper's face when he saw the caller ID.

"Hey, did you get my present?"

Adele's voice sounded cheerful as it rang out from the other end of the line.

Jasper said, "I've received it. It's gorgeous. I love it. Thank you."

Adele huffed lightly and said, "Of course you have to like it. My grandfather gave it to me as a coming-of-age present."

When Jasper heard that this ruby pendant was a gift from Grandmaster Brown, he hurriedly said, "It's such an expensive gift. Is it really alright to give it to me?"

Adele pursed her lips and said, "Didn't you notice there was a phoenix on it? Who gives girls something with a phoenix on it? I've been nagging my grandfather about this for a really long time, and he's agreed to give me another one. I felt that this suited you, so I got my uncle to bring it over for you."

Jasper sighed and said, "I'm just worried

that Mr. McNeal will misunderstand your

intentions in doing this."

Adele's sharp mind was different from other girls. Even more importantly, she had grown up in intense environments since she was a young child, and was now much more sensitive toward politics and public opinion than the average person. Thus, she immediately understood what

Jasper meant after he said that.

She replied, "You don't have to think about that. Who cares about misunderstandings? Just pretend that such things don't exist. This was a gift from my family, it had nothing to do with me. I hate how these people are constantly plotting against each other, they might as well include themselves in their own calculations. Aren't they tired of living like this?"

Jasper rubbed the ruby pendant between his fingers as he said, "They can't help it is f they're already in the game. But we'll take this one step at a time for now.... I've got something else going on. Talk later."

Jasper interrupted himself mid-sentence and hung up the phone before smiling and walking towards Ms. Garcia.

He had booked the entire hotel, and only Mr. McNeal, Ms. Garcia, Mr. Mason, and Tony were staying on this floor. Thus, if Ms. Garcia still managed to bump into him in the corridors at this point, it was obviously planned and not a coincidence.
