Life at The Top novel Chapter 953

“There’s something else… Brother Laine, could you lend me 1,000 dollars?”

Tiffany sounded like she was about to cry. “I know that it’s wrong for me to do this, but my brother’s school fees have been in arrears for almost a week now. I…I don’t want the others to look down on him in school,” she said.

Jasper sighed lightly as he looked at Tiffany’s conflicted expression.

1,000 dollars was nothing to him.

The profits that he had earned effortlessly from the companies under his name exceeded this amount by a lot. However, this sum of money was enough to cause Tiffany to feel conflicted and awkward.

He took out 2,000 dollars in cash from his wallet and stuffed it into Tiffany’s hands. He then spoke to Tiffany who was desperately searching for the right words to say to him in a kind tone.

“Here’s 2,000 dollars. 1,000 dollars is for your brother’s school fees, and the remaining 1,000 dollars is for your brother’s living expenses. You need to take care of the remaining expenses on your own. However, this money is part of your salary. I’m just giving it to you in advance. When you get your salary, it’ll be deducted from the total.”

Tiffany nodded nervously as a bright expression flashed across her face.

Jasper’s words made her feel extremely at ease. She felt like the 2,000 dollars he had given her was her salary and not a form of charity.

“Thank you, Brother Laine! I will work hard!” Tiffany exclaimed in a determined tone.

Jasper chuckled and waved at her. He then turned around and headed downstairs.

Julian had driven over to the villa after receiving Jasper’s call and was waiting for him outside in his Bentley.

“Let’s head over to Brac County. I think we’ll be staying there for about two days.”

Jasper said as he got into the car and accepted the breakfast sandwich handed over to him by Julian.

The Bentley zoomed along the road, catching the attention of passersby on the street. It then entered the highway and dashed toward Brac County.

The shipyard, which had still been deserted not too long ago, was now bursting with liveliness after a period of operation. The sound of machines whirring added to the bustling atmosphere.

The workers gradually gathered at the canteen when it was time for lunch.

It was evident that Charlie and Sally had a good reputation in the shipyard. Ordinary workers and managers of every position would take the initiative to greet them when they passed by. It seemed like they really liked these two bosses. They did not look like they were faking it.

However, not many people knew who Jasper was.

Charlie and Sally greeted workers throughout their journey to the canteen. They did not receive any special treatment either. They queued up after grabbing a tray each and joked with some of the workers every now and then.

Jasper followed his parents. He took a tray and stood behind them. The factory’s canteen, which had dozens of workers, took its food seriously. More than 20 dishes had been prepared, and the portion of meat and vegetables was extremely reasonable. His parents had obviously put in a lot of effort and consideration on this aspect.

After taking their food, the three of them sat down at an empty table. Charlie started talking, “Not too long ago, the order you obtained for us got snatched away by someone else!”
