“World Financial Center?”

Jasper was stunned for a moment when h e heard her.

He had almost forgotten about the World Financial Center.

All it took was one look at his expression and Wendy immediately knew what he was thinking.

“We invested a few billion into that center! You can’t possibly have forgotten about it, can you?!” Wendy huffed at Jasper in exasperation.

“I would never.”

Jasper did not know whether to laugh or feel embarrassed as he quickly explained, “It’s just that it’s been a while since I had t o worry about it, so I was shocked to hear that its construction has been finished.”

“Construction for the center’s structure had already been completed two months back, and the building already passed its acceptance testing and had its official topping-out ceremony last month. They’ve been carrying out internal renovation these days, and at this current rate of progress, we should be able to officially use the building soon,” Wendy replied begrudgingly.

Jasper’s gaze lit up. “That’s good, then. Hopefully, it’ll be done by the time we’ve reshuffled the company so we can move the headquarters to the World Financial Center.”

Wendy spoke up, “Actually, there’s been a few hotels and large-scale groups who came to ask us about our lot selling plans a long time ago. Many companies seem inclined to purchase one of the center’s levels for use.

“But I rejected them temporarily since the center’s construction hadn’t been completed at that time and I assumed that you wouldn’t want to discuss things like that so soon. Now that construction of the World Financial Center is finished, I don’t think we can drag this matter on any longer.”
