Life At The Top Chapter 1952
Dean was in luck.
By the time he rushed all the way from Suesville to Nauritus City, it was half an hour before the afternoon opening. Jasper was eating when he received a
report from downstairs that someone named Dean wanted to see him.
Wendy was still in Harbor City, so no one
would bring him lunch anymore. Hence, Jasper and Baz could only have lunch prepared by the team of chefs from a five star hotel.
Jasper was picking at the food in
dissatisfaction. Then, he said without
looking up, "Let him come up and ask
him to come here directly."
A few minutes later, under the guidance of
the staff, Dean appeared in front of Jasper. "Have you eaten yet?"
Although there had been some conflicts between them, in Jasper's view, they were
all adults. Thus, personal grievances and
things like that did not exist in their
world. Instead, they were all here for profit.
Now that the previous matter had been
settled and mutual interests had been
taken care of, there was nothing to worry about.
If he was here, he should sit down and
talk if he had something to say. If he did
not, he should leave after the meal.
There were not so many grudges in the adult world.
"I was in a rush, so I didn't."
Dean was not courteous at all as he said this directly.
"What can I do then? My meal portions are all fixed, and I didn't prepare yours," Jasper said.
After speaking and watching Dean's
stunned and embarrassed expression,
Jasper laughed and said, "I was just
teasing you. I will get them to make some
even if I don't have it right now since we
have a guest, right? Come sit."
Dean sat down opposite Jasper, clenching
his teeth secretly.
That small so-called joke made him lose the opportunity to seize the initiative.
This was not a good sign.
At the same time, it secretly surprised
Dean.
Jasper was even more cunning than when they were in contact a few months ago.
Soon, the sumptuous and delicious dishes were served. Dean also picked up the fork and took a few bites. When he saw that Jasper was not going to say anything, he sighed and spoke after putting down the fork, "Mr. Laine, I think you must know the reason why I came here this time."
"I don't like guessing. I like to say whatever's on my mind."
Jasper wiped his mouth and glanced at the
time while he was at it. After this obvious gesture, he smiled at Dean and said, "There are still 20 minutes before the opening. I don't have much time to accompany you."
Dean gritted his teeth slightly. Then, he looked at Jasper and said, "Okay, I'll go straight to the point.
"This morning in the market, the Haddock Chamber of Commerce suffered heavy losses. With the exception of the textile industry, our other industries have suffered a lot. More than 60% of the listed companies belonging to the Haddock Chamber of Commerce have reached the limit down. The Haddock Chamber of Commerce won't be able to hang on for
long if this continues. So, I was entrusted by others to come to ask you for help."
"Entrusted by others?"
Jasper smiled and asked, "Is it Gale, or
someone else?"
"It's not my grandpa."
