Life at the Top

Jasper’s and Penelope’s meeting was pure coincidence.

As far as Jasper was concerned, helping Penelope was at most, a final farewell to his previous life and his past.

After all, Jasper was not a heartless person.

While the two had not shared a very happy past, Penelope was, if anything, still the woman who had been by Jasper’s side the longest.

Now that they each had their own lives to live, the least Jasper could do was bid that era of his life farewell.

Yet, Jasper had never expected Penelope to bring him such an important message.

‘Called Terence or something?

‘Who else but Terence Laine, then?’

Naturally, the people Jasper first thought of when he heard Penelope’s words would be the two brothers, Terence and Darrel Laine.

Taking a trip down memory lane, Jasper recalled Terence had never shown himself again after leaving the meal in a huff yesterday. Meanwhile, Darrel had been staying in Tefa City the entire time.
