Life at the Top

The hall was crowded with guests. At a glance, one could see Old Master Law sitting in the first row. Old Master Law was not the only one here, as his family members were seated too. As for the rest of bigwigs hailing from different industries in the first row, any one of them would shake Somerland when they stomped their feet.

When Jasper saw them, he bowed and nodded in gratitude. Then, Jasper’s gaze stopped at the edge of the northeast corner, where the crippled Brown sat quietly with Adele beside him.

This was exactly that guy’s style, low-key, humble, restrained…

The other party seemed to sense Jasper’s gaze and nodded.

“Let’s all welcome Mr. Jasper Laine, the founder of JW, and his partner, Ms. Wendy Schuler!”

The host stood beside the stage and said impassionedly. At that moment, thunderous applause came from the audience.

Wendy understood that this was Jasper’s banquet, so she flashed a magnanimous and elegant smile to everyone. After she bowed, she automatically stood on the right side of the stage. She hid behind the curtain. Tonight, she just wanted to give Jasper the limelight.

Looking at the acquaintances under the stage, Jasper held the microphone in his hand. He initially had thousands of words in his heart that he wanted to say, but at that moment, he suddenly did not know how to express them. He had experienced too much along the way. Looking back, he had already walked on all of the thorn-covered roads.

Jasper closed his eyes slightly, took a long breath, and then slowly opened his eyes to look at everyone under the stage.

“First of all, thank you very much for coming to this banquet. For everyone‘s approval of me, I thank you!” Jasper bowed deeply to the audience below the stage. He did a very standard 90-degree bow.

There was thunderous applause from the audience.

As Jasper got up, the applause from the audience gradually stopped.

“I, Jasper, like everyone else, want to do my part in times of national crisis. And I just gather everyone‘s strength and used it to fight. I’m just a representative. The people who truly shine is everyone in this country, every citizen of Somerland.”
