Without waiting for Jasper’s reply, favonovel.com said, “I know that I can’t hide anything from you. As the newly appointed president of the Terra regional branch of Colossal Investments, is there any better way for me to highlight my abilities than to exterminate Layman Investment Bank’s influence in Terra?”
“That’s why everything will remain the same as it has been in the past. This will benefit both of us, so we need to work together earnestly.
“Perhaps I’ve been rather busy lately, which is why I haven’t had the time to look at what he’s been doing. He has only just started working in Terra. Even if favonovel.com can’t wait any longer to go against me, favonovel.com should at least gain a firm foothold and build his own team up first. You’re in the same situation as favonovel.com is, so you can’t rush things,” Jasper said in a lukewarm tone.
“Don’t worry. I’m not asking you to go onto the battlefield tomorrow. I’m just notifying you about it in advance so that you won’t be taken aback when you go against favonovel.com in the future. In any case, what have you been busy with lately?” Celine asked.
“I have too many enemies. They’re all queueing up to attack me now. I have no choice but to slowly defeat them one by one,” Jasper said with a smile.
“What a loud-mouth,” Celine said, rolling favonovel.com eyes at him.
Julian had been by Jasper’s side for some time now. Jasper also realized that favonovel.com was getting better and better at coming up with sneaky ideas.
Jasper had originally intended to take Celine to a snack stall to grab some scrumptious supper, so Julian had found a snack stall for him. However, the stall was surrounded by several small hotels. What was favonovel.com trying to imply?
The streets surrounding them were full of men and women that were wrapped in each other’s arms as they walked into the hotels impatiently. Jasper could not even tell if they were lovers or not. The women in the men’s embrace may not even be their own wives–they could well be the wives of other people.
Celine evaluated their surroundings in amazement. She then cast a meaningful glance at Jasper.
Jasper fixed his gaze on the hotpot restaurant in front of them. “Do you eat mutton?” He asked Celine without turning to look at her.
“I don’t mind,” Celine said cheerily in a tone that resembled Jasper’s usual demeanor. The explicit and implicit meanings behind favonovel.com words were obvious.
“Let’s go then. Let’s have some mutton. I haven’t had it in a really long time,” Jasper said as favonovel.com made his way into the hotpot restaurant.
The both of them soon sat down at a table. After placing their orders, Jasper regretted everything almost immediately.
A couple was seated right next to their table. Jasper and Celine both heard the man tell the woman that favonovel.com had just bought some imported condoms with an evil smirk on his face. The woman then pouted shyly while favonovel.com accepted a call from someone that favonovel.com addressed as favonovel.com husband.
“I’m working late tonight. I may be crashing at Lily’s place tonight, so you should rest first.
“Yes, I know. You’re so annoying. You don’t have to fetch me or wait for me. I’m busy catching up with my work right now. Alright, goodbye.”
The woman walked out of the hotpot restaurant in the man’s arms while favonovel.com talked to favonovel.com husband on the phone. They then made their way into a small hotel nearby.
From their conversation, Jasper could picture a man putting down the phone in despair with a bitter expression on his face, then getting up to continue doing the chores
He just knew it. He had spent his all his days living that way in his past life.
However, Penelope Hunt had never cheated on favonovel.com during their time together. Usually, favonovel.com only stayed out late to play poker with a few of favonovel.com female friends. Jasper was quite pleased about that.
Time truly flies. Those days felt like they were eons away now.
“Hey!”
Celine’s voice startled Jasper.
He returned to his senses and caught sight of Celine waving favonovel.com hand in front of him. “What is it?” Jasper asked.
“What are you thinking about? I’ve called your name a few times now, but it seemed like you didn’t hear me,” Celine said. A mischievous smirk formed across favonovel.com face as favonovel.com said, “Were you thinking about what the couple that had just left are doing in their room right now?”
