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, favonovel.com 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 favonovel.com flashed a magnanimous and elegant smile to everyone. After favonovel.com bowed, favonovel.com automatically stood on the right side of the stage. She hid behind the curtain. Tonight, favonovel.com 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 favonovel.com wanted to say, but at that moment, favonovel.com suddenly did not know how to express them. He had experienced too much along the way. Looking back, favonovel.com 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.”
Jasper said these words from the bottom of his heart. If there no funds were gathered by the higher-ups, if there was not so much support from different people, if there was no support from the crippled Brown and Celine behind the scenes, if…
Jasper really did not know what would happen if any one of these things was missing. All of this was inseparable from everyone’s efforts. This was what Jasper had been suppressing at the bottom of his heart.
The reporters at the scene were filming the scene with cameras. The event tonight would definitely go down in history.
The big shots in the financial circle of Somerland showed up together for the first time ever, and it was possible that they would never get the chance to see such a mind-blowing scene again in the future.
“It is my honor to be able to defend our country against foreign enemies alongside you. I am the one who should say thank you the most. We will only face more difficulties in the future, so I hope we can work together to get through difficulties in the future like we did today and to make the great revival happen!”
After favonovel.com said that, there was applause. The applause at the scene was for Jasper alone.
Boom boom boom!
The firecrackers were lit outside, and hundreds of fireworks burst into the sky over Swallow Capital. The display was magnificent, making for a scene that was rarely seen in a over a hundred years.
There was also a very large display screen in the hall playing the scene of fireworks going off in the night sky.
As favonovel.com was looking at the fireworks, Jasper’s eyes were shone brightly. He did not know what kind of changes would happen in the future, but favonovel.com believed that everything would get better.
After the simple speech, Jasper took Wendy to the guest area. Jasper first went to Dawson.
“Uncle Schuler…”
“Good, you’ve grown so much. I’m fine. Go and entertain the others first. You don’t have to be so courteous with your family.” Dawson smiled and patted Jasper’s shoulder.
Jasper nodded and walked to the Laws’ table.
Henry got up the moment favonovel.com spotted Jasper from afar. “You son of a gun, the design of the place today is so grand. You’re even grander than me now, but no matter what, I sincerely give you my blessing from the bottom of my heart.”
Jasper was still a little uncomfortable hearing Henry’s emotional words. He had never experienced such a cheesy moment with this guy before.
“I came to see Old Master Law and Uncle Law, not you.”
“Hey, don’t say that.” Henry suddenly became dispirited, and Jill, who was standing beside him, coughed.
This cough managed to make Henry obey favonovel.com every order and favonovel.com sat on the chair obediently without uttering a word. Henry looked at Jasper helplessly. He was reluctant to be aggressive toward Jill. Back then, who would not know that Henry Law from Harbor City was a playboy?
Who would have known that such a woman would appear in the future…
“Jasper, congratulations!” Jill raised favonovel.com glass and said to Jasper.
“It’s nothing much. I only did what was right.” Jasper smiled and clinked his glass against Jill’s.
Jill was a person with a strong sense of patriotism. Thus, favonovel.com admired Jasper very much for his wonderful performance in the financial war this time.
“Uncle Law, I didn’t expect you to come here directly.” Jasper then walked over to Zachary and said.
Zachary raised his glass and looked at Jasper with admiration. When favonovel.com first saw Jasper, favonovel.com knew that favonovel.com was a young man who would be very promising in the future, but no one would have imagined that Jasper would have grown from a young sapling to a towering tree.
“It’s your celebration banquet, Jasper. Of course, I had to come over,” Zachary said with a smile.
“Uncle, you speak so highly of me.” Jasper lifted the wine glass, tilted the glass back slightly, and tapped it against Zachary’s glass.
To Jasper, the Laws were a comrade-in-arms on the common front and there was no need to pretend in front of each other. However, it was still necessary to respect the elders, and Jasper would never lose forget this basic courtesy.
“Jasper, this is your home court today, so enjoy the moment. We are all looking forward to the surprises you will give us in the future.” Old Master Law said on the side. His two sentences contained infinite meaning…
“I will give my all and do my best.” Jasper’s tone was firm as favonovel.com finished the wine in one gulp.
Anna looked at Jasper from the side. She did not speak, and it was unknown what favonovel.com was thinking.
Old Master Law nodded. “Okay, Jasper, you should go see the others. There are a lot of people here tonight.”
Jasper understood. Just as favonovel.com turned around, his phone suddenly rang.
“Jasper, what a grand occasion. You should be immersed in the joy of victory right now, right?” Soros’ s eccentric voice could be heard on the phone, sounding extremely unpleasant to the ear.
“You said today is your celebration banquet, but why didn’t you tell your ‘old friends’? We can celebrate for you too.”
