Victory in Life
Chapter 158
'Who's Anna Law?'
She is recognized as the most beautiful woman in the upper circle of Harbor City.
He's Old Law's favorite grandson.
The number of people who want to date her can form a line that stretches from Victoria Harbour to Causeway Beach!
They were all sons of wealthy families as well.
However, they were now hearing this from Henry Law?
Reporters who asked the question earlier seemed to think that they had earned the gold, but by the time they wanted to ask another question, Henry was already gone.
He was finally free from flashing lights after he crossed the red carpet and entered the hotel.
However, the socialization that comes after is also annoying.
The difference between the various groups is very clearly seen in a beauty exhibition like this.
The four great families formed their own groups, and no one else was allowed inside.
When the four big families finish socializing, they will scatter to find those who are on good terms with their families.
Rival circles will have a clear separation from each other.
However, no matter who you are, you should smile for everyone.
New acquaintances sprung up continuously in front of Jasper as long as Anna remained beside him.
He met members of three other large families. They were mostly elegant and well-spoken people.
They had a clear interest in Jasper. However, it did not seem right for them to ask questions.
However, Jasper could feel the attention of the audience shifting towards him as his name spread throughout the area.
"Mr Boyle, I heard your wife is pregnant. We look forward to your invitation once your child is born" Anna said, smiling at the head of the Boyle family.
The man, who was several years older, blushed as he laughed and said, "Of course, of course. I'll make sure your invitation isn't lost through postal mail."
After a round of greetings, Jasper knew several people and even more people had known his name by now.
No one knew where it started, but news of what Jasper had done some time ago spread among the crowd like a plague.
"Mr Laine, you were the one who bought our company on the stock market the other day?" Kayden asked as he looked at Jasper in surprise.
Jasper smiled and said, "I didn't expect it to surprise you, Mr. Langdon."
"The number of shares you hold now makes you worthy of the board of directors. The rules state that you should be notified when the company meets with the Board of Directors" Kayden said with a smile.
Jasper said to Second Young Master Langdon, who was an honorable man, "As an investor, I am only optimistic about the future of your company and intend to make a profit while I can. I didn't think I'd be needed in a corporate meeting with the board of directors."
Kayden smiled meaningfully as he said, "I must praise your good taste, Mr. Laine."
Their conversation seemed peaceful, but there was a hidden agenda in it.
Kayden was worried about the intentions that Jasper might hold towards his company. If that was the case, the two of them had to fight right then and there, but Jasper had no interest at all in the Langdon family business, and he made sure to give an honest explanation.
His honesty earned him Kayden's appreciation in return.
"This is my card." Let's talk again if there's a chance Kayden smiles while handing over his card.
"Of course."
Taking the card from him, Kayden glanced at him and said in surprise, "Master Laine, do you have an investment company in the Mainland? JW Capital's... Is that who invested in Terizone?"
"Yes!" Jasper was not surprised that Kayden had heard of Terizone.
In his past life, Hudson asked Kayden to invest in the company, and he did.
"Haha, it looks like we will have a lot to talk about in the future," Kayden joked.
The two chatted a little longer before Kayden said goodbye and went elsewhere. People like him couldn't talk to a single person at an event for too long.
Kayden had just stepped away when Jasper heard a piercing sound behind him.
"Hey, look what I found. Mainlanders who try to blend in with upper class society. You really have the courage to go in?"
Mitch taunts as he walks with Queenie.
"Is 100 million dollars too little for you to be considered a punishment?" Jasper asked coldly.
Mitch's facial expression stiffened as he sneered and said, "Don't be too proud. You're just lucky. I refuse to believe that you will always be so lucky. One day, you'll end up worse than a dog."
"I don't know how I'll end up in the future, but I clearly remember that I earned 100 million dollars from you the other day" Jasper said with a light laugh.
Mitch gritted his teeth as he said angrily, "Do you have nothing else to talk about other than those 100 million?"
"Indeed, I have nothing else to say to you," Jasper said coldly.
"Young Master Langdon, the banquet has not yet begun. There was no need to conflict with the other guests," Queenie said hurriedly upon seeing Mitch's facial expression.
Mitch scoffed and said, "You're right. Being angry at someone like him means nothing but tarnishing my reputation. The Mainlander must see himself. He would not fool anyone into thinking he was a king even if he had the royal robe covering him!"
Queenie glanced at Jasper with curiosity. He did some work on the Mainland this year and also shot some commercials there, which meant he had a vague understanding of the Mainland.
What he believed was that men as attractive as Jasper were hard to come by in both Mainland and Harbor City.
Even without mentioning anything else, Jasper's polite and elegant demeanor on the red carpet just now had attracted many women
"Queenie, I hear a lot of your fans are Mainlanders." Mitch sneered as he raised his chin towards Jasper. "See this? The movie star that you Mainlanders don't even dare dream of meeting is my date tonight."
"Miss Shaw, you're under Gladness Entertainment, aren't you?" Jasper asked calmly.
"yeah."
Queenie nodded, not understanding why Jasper asked that question all of a sudden.
Smiling, Jasper turned around and said to Mitch, "The world is a magical place because you will never be able to guess what will happen in the next second. For example, your date you're so proud of, a famous movie star with countless fans, might have a new boss in the next second.
"What do you mean?" Mitch narrowed his eyes and glared threateningly at Jasper as he spoke.
"Nothing," Jasper replied calmly.
"Jasper, my father's looking for you."
Just then, Anna walked over and spoke softly to Jasper.
Mitch is handsome, and Queenie is certainly beautiful.
However, they pale in comparison to Jasper and Anna.
Jasper smiled as he reached out towards Anna and then pointed to their interlocking arms
She smiled at Mitch and said, "My date, Anna Law."
