The three members of the council looked at each other. No one knew what happened.
There were bucketloads of stories about Jasper and their chamber of commerce and there were only
stories of grudge and no grace.
They thought this meeting would be a collision that was as huge as a meteor crash. However, they did
not think that the president would get cold feet before the meeting even started.
Not only that, but Jasper also had a modest and amiable look on his face. It seemed that he wanted to
dispel bygone enmity.
Everyone in the room was experienced in the business world and none of them exposed their thoughts
easily. So, everyone planned to wait and see.
“Since everyone’s here, let’s start the meeting,” Norman said with a calm look on his face.
After he said that, Norman realized something awkward.
Jasper was sitting on the seat of honor and only the person with the highest position would be sitting in
that seat during meetings.
Normally, Norman would be sitting there.
However, Jasper sat down directly and left him at one side.
This made Norman feel extremely awkward.
“Mr. Laine, you’re in the wrong seat.”
One of the members of the council was Norman’s die-hard supporter. After confirming that Jasper
would be representing Haddock Chamber of Commerce’s Waterhoof City Branch to attend the Asset
Forum Conference, he communicated with Norman, so he said this bluntly.
“Oh? Where should I sit then?” Jasper asked.
“You’re just the vice president and you dare to sit in the seat of honor? Get down and sit in the seat
below that,” this member of the council said boldly and confidently.
“You’re young so I remind you out of kindness. This is a very solemn and proper setting, not those
unregistered companies that you’re operating illegally without following the rules.
“Maybe you can sit wherever you want over there but don’t be confused with your identity and position
over here. You’ll suffer a disadvantage if you do.”
This member of the council was pleased with himself because he felt that he found a perfect excuse to
embarrass Jasper.
After berating Jasper, he saw Jasper looking at him with a half-smile on his face. He could not contain
this anymore.
“Why are you looking at me like that? Am I wrong?”
“You’re right.”
Jasper said insipidly, “You said you’ll make me clear of my identity and position, and I did. I am the vice
president and you’re just a member of the council. So even if I get a group of people to lie down and go
to sleep in this meeting room, aside from Mr. Gardner, do you think you have the qualification to
question me?”
“So, am I the one who’s not clear of my identity and status, or are you the one who’s not clear of
yours?”
That member of the council’s face flushed immediately after hearing what Jasper said. He looked at
Jasper in anger and said sinisterly, “What do you mean by that?”
“Literally,” Jasper said unenthusiastically.
“Alright, that’s enough.” Norman waved his hand and had a good-natured look on his face.
“It’s just a seat, right? I’ll just sit here.”
After Norman said that, he found a seat beneath Jasper and sat down.
“Mr. Gardner, what are you doing?” When that member of the council saw Norman backing down after
he charged and broke through enemy lines for him, he was slightly lost for words.
“Alright, Mr. Heron. It’s just a seat. It doesn’t mean anything.” It was clear that Norman did not want to
say much when he waved his hand and said that.
Mr. Heron chuckled coldly and sat back down. He said, “Right, it’s just a seat. I’ll let you feel pleased
with yourself for a while. You’re just like a dog I keep as a pet. It won’t become human even if I put a
suit on him.
“A dog will always be a dog.”
After he said that, the people around the meeting table were smiling. They were starting to look at
Jasper with sarcasm and ridicule in their eyes.
As the members of the Haddock Chamber of Commerce, they would be siding with Norman naturally.
Plus, they even saw their president bowing to Jasper when they entered this room. Even though they
did not know what happened, Jasper’s wild image was imprinted in their heads.
