Life at The Top
Life At The Top Chapter 1890

A glint appeared in the reporters' eyes when they heard what Jasper said.

Although they could not change the words

spoken by a major figure like Jasper, they were allowed to weigh in with their opinions.

They would have an attention-grabbing

title once they added in their opinions.

Thus, the reporters let their questions

flow freely.

Coupled with the fact there was no host to

maintain order, the mess meant that

anything could happen.

Jasper even heard a brave reporter ask if h

e was considering launching a speculative

attack on the United States...

F*cking hell, anyone with even an ounce o

f financial knowledge would know it was

impossible to launch a speculative attack o

n United State dollars. It was such an ignorant question that Jasper decided to ignore it.

"Mr. Laine, I heard a rumor that there will

be some official guests attending this

economic forum. Is this true?

"Why would official guests attend an

economic forum regarding private

capital? Does this mean there's an ulterior

motive behind this economic forum?

"Moreover, we've noticed that this

economic forum is branded as the first of its kind in the country. Does this mean

that a second and third forum will be held at set times and frequency in the future?" Jasper finally heard a question he was interested in answering amidst everything that was directed at him.

Jasper glanced at the good-looking reporter,

who blushed from excitement

when she noticed Jasper paying attention t

o her, and said, "Firstly, I can say with

confidence that we have invited government officials to this economic forum. After all, we need proper advice and guidance from officials if we want to bring order to our markets. Thus, it's not surprising that we've extended a formal

invitation to these officials to be our special guests. They've been very supportive of us all this while.

"As for the ulterior motives you speak of, I'm not sure what you mean by that, but I can assure you that everything is perfectly just and honorable. There aren't any conspiracies going on.

"We need to observe the markets and determine if it's a suitable time to host an economic forum, but I hope that it will become normalized, as we greatly need such platforms that allow people to converse freely with each other. We'll host a second and third one in the future if we get the chance to do so, but we need to have a great start first. I hope today will provide us with that golden opportunity."

"Mr. Laine, what is your opinion on Half the-Harbor Langdon merging and acquiring Layman, and then filing for bankruptcy just half a month later?"

Jasper grinned when he heard those questions.

Jasper's grin had a knowing look to it as if he were saying "if you know, you know".

News traveled so quickly through

different forms of media now that it was n

o longer a secret that Half-the-Harbor

Langdon and his son had stabbed JW

Foundation in the back. Thus, everyone

had guessed that Jasper and Joe had long

since cut ties with each other.

This could also be observed from how

Jasper launched numerous attacks on the

United States' financial market whereas

Joe had gone on to merge and acquire Layman.

"It's a shame."

That was how Jasper decided to answer

that question as several pairs of eyes stared back at him hungrily.

"From a technical point of view, it's obvious that this was a failed investment of

n Mr. Joe Langdon's part. However, since

it's his money, no one has the right to

comment on how he wants to use it."

It was easy to read what he meant by that.

Who cares what a rich idiot like him does with his money?

Whereas him saying it was a shame could be read as him finding it hilarious.

"Alright guys, your three questions have been answered. Do forgive me for having limited time for you. I'll try my best to answer more questions and quench your curiosity if I have the chance to do so in the future, but I really have to go now." Jasper raised his arms apologetically as he walked towards Pearl Tower while surrounded by his group of people.
