Everyone’s attention peaked as they stared at Jasper with widened eyes, waiting for his response.

Jasper responded with a smile. Instead of accepting the box, he looked at Terence and said, “I’ve spent most of my time out of town after graduating. I haven’t come back in a long time. May I know who you are?”

Terence scoffed. “You’re a prominent figure and a big boss now. Of course, you wouldn’t pay attention to poor relatives like us. It’s completely normal for you to forget,” he said.

“I’m Terence Laine. I can be considered your cousin since Darrel Laine is my brother.”

Jasper nodded in realization. “I remember that he has a younger brother. He called me not too long ago to tell me that he was rushing back by train. He said that he’d arrive a little later,” he said.

Terence sulked and said, “Everyone knows that my brother will be running a large business very soon. He has attained an agreement with bosses from other localities and he’ll be opening dozens of hotpot restaurants in the province next year. Of course, you’d care more about him.
