Life at the Top

“Alright, this is negligence on our part. Mr. Laine has just arrived so we should let him rest well. In that case, we shall let Sylphie take you to rest. If you need anything, please tell her.” Emil saw this opportunity to escape the situation. Hence, he stood up and said.

After nodding in agreement, Jasper turned his head and said to Kit, “Mr. Kit, then I will leave first, and will ask you for advice later.”

Kit smiled and said, “Mr. Laine, you should rest first. We’ll talk later.”

With that, the first negotiation between Jasper and Sentel Corporation ended without embarrassment to either party.

Coming out of the study, Sylphie took Jasper to the guest room to rest. She whispered, “Mr. Laine, my father and grandpa both have big concerns surrounding this partnership. After all, this is not a trivial matter, so please understand.”

Jasper waved his hand and said, “It‘s okay, I would be surprised if your father agreed so quickly.”

“It’s just that it’s impossible to ask for JW’s stocks. It‘s like if we were in opposite positions and I were asking Sentel for its stocks in exchange for my services. It’s unrealistic.”

Sylphie nodded when she heard this. Then, she replied, “I understand.”

While they were talking, Sylphie brought Jasper to a guest room and said, “Mr. Laine, you can rest here. I will arrange for a servant to wait at the door. If you need something, you can call the servant at any time and I will come here as soon as possible.”

Jasper smiled. “It’s rare to get such treatment by you, right, Prince Sylphie?”

Sylphie chuckled. “You are the first.”

“Very good, I hope I’m the only one,” Jasper said.

Sylphie pursed her lips and smiled. Then, she watched Jasper enter the guest room.

At this moment, Emil and Kit were still talking in the study.
