Life at The Top novel Chapter 158

Who was Anna Law?

She was recognized to be the most beautiful lady in the upper circle of Harbor City.

She was the apple of Old Master Law’s eye.

The number of people who wanted to date her could form a line that stretched from Victoria Harbor to Causeway Bay!

They were all sons of rich families too.

However, they were now hearing this from Henry Law?

The journalist who asked the previous question seemed to think that they had struck gold, but by the time they wanted to ask another question, Henry had already walked off.

He was finally free from the flashing lights once he had crossed the red carpet and entered the hotel.

However, the socializing that came after was also a pain.

The differences between various cliques were exceptionally obvious in vanity fairs like these.

The four big shot families formed a clique of their own, and no one else was allowed in it.

When the four big shot families were done socializing, they would scatter off to look for those who were on good terms with their families.

The rival circles would have a clear-cut separation from each other.

However, no matter who you were, you would put on a smile for everyone.

New acquaintances popped up continuously before Jasper as long as Anna stayed beside him.

He had met members from the other three big families. They were mostly elegant, well-spoken people.

They had an obvious interest in Jasper. However, it did not seem right for them to pose the question.

However, Jasper could feel the crowd’s attention shifting toward him as his name spread throughout the venue.

“Master Boyle, I heard your wife is pregnant. We’ll be looking forward to your invitation once your child is born,” Anna said as she smiled 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 yours doesn’t get lost in the mail.”

After a round of greetings, Jasper had gotten to know several people and even more people had learned his name now.

No one knew where it started, but news of what Jasper had done awhile back traveled through the crowd like the plague.

“Mr. Laine, you were the one who purchased 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 that to surprise you, Mr. Langdon.”

“The amount of shares you hold now makes you eligible to enter the board of directors. Rules state that you must be notified the next time the company meets with the board of directors,” Kayden said as he smiled.

Jasper said to Second Young Master Langdon, who was a refined man, “As an investor, I’m merely optimistic about your company’s future and intend to make a profit while I can. I don’t think I’ll be needed in the company’s meeting with the board of directors.”

Kayden smiled meaningfully as he said, “I must compliment you on your fine taste, Mr. Laine.”

Their conversation seemed peaceful, but there was a hidden agenda to it.

Kayden was worried about the intentions Jasper might be holding toward his company. If that was the case, the two would have to fight then and there, but Jasper had no interest whatsoever in the Langdon family’s business, and he made sure to give an honest explanation.

His honesty had gotten him Kayden’s appreciation in return.

“Here’s my card. Let’s talk again when we have the chance.” Kayden smiled as he handed his card over.

“Of course.”

What she was sure of was that a man as attractive as Jasper was hard to come by both in Mainland and Harbor City.

Even without mentioning anything else, Jasper’s gentlemanly and elegant demeanor on the red carpet just now had already attracted countless women.

“Queenie, I hear that many of your fans are Mainlanders.” Mitch scoffed as he raised his chin toward Jasper. “See that? The movie star who you Mainlanders don’t even dare dream of meeting is my date tonight.”

“Ms. Shaw, you’re under Gladness Entertainment, aren’t you?” Jasper asked calmly.

“Yes.”

Queenie nodded, not understanding why Jasper asked that question all of a sudden.

Smiling, Jasper turned and said to Mitch, “The world is a miraculous place because you can never guess what’s going to happen in the next second. For example, your date who 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 dad’s looking for you.”

Just then, Anna walked over and spoke quietly to Jasper.

Mitch was handsome, and Queenie was naturally gorgeous.

However, they paled in comparison to Jasper and Anna.

Jasper smiled as he extended an arm toward Anna and then pointed to their interlocked arms.

He smiled at Mitch and said, “My date, Anna Law.”
