Life at the Top

At the construction site’s duty room.

The doors were pushed open, and Jasper felt the thick smell of alcohol hit him in the face right as he walked through the door.

Cigarette buds and bottles of alcohol were littered all over the duty room. There was even some leftover food as well.

It was evident that some gathering was held here last night, and a rambunctious one at that.

This was proven by the fact that the smell of cigarettes and alcohol had yet to disperse even though it was almost noon.

Jasper’s gaze soon fell on the bed in the duty room. On it was a young man in his thirties, sleeping away under his blanket.

“Go wake him up,” Jasper instructed the vice president beside him.

Not daring to hesitate, the vice president jogged over to the bed and shook Rohin awake. Thankfully, this was rather easy.

“Tadhg?” Rohin blinked open his alcohol-muddled eyes. Seeing that it was his colleague, he waved his hand and said, “Leave me alone. Let me go back to sleep, I had too f*cking much to drink last night.”

Rohin then turned around to see a group of people looking at him strangely at the duty room doors.

“What’s with the people?” Rohin asked confusedly, having yet realized what was happening.

Tadhg, who had shaken him awake, whispered awkwardly, “Sober up already. Something huge happened and Mr. Laine’s here.”

“Mr. Laine? Which Mr. Laine?” Rohin had drunk himself stupid and he scoffed. “Since when did our company have another Mr. Laine? Stop being so noisy, Tadhg, and shoo everyone away. I’ll wake up after a bit more sleep, I won’t be delaying anything.
