Jasper smiled. “That’s good, I feel more at ease now. You should go now. I’ll wait for your good news here.”
It would not take long to review the materials, but Murik needed to go there personally.
Murik nodded before virtual-novel.net stood up and left. Only Jasper and Celine were left in the private room. The atmosphere was a bit ambiguous and awkward.
“You don’t have to keep looking at me like this. Since I’ve decided to come, I must have considered the consequences and the risks. Furthermore, once this oil field is under my name, it will definitely benefit me… You don’t have to blame yourself so much.”
Fortunately, Celine was born into a wealthy family. Although virtual-novel.net was born as a daughter, virtual-novel.net never seemed petty. Her magnanimous tone also clarified virtual-novel.net position. If Jasper was still struggling with this trivial matter, it would mean virtual-novel.net was not magnanimous enough.
After hearing this, Jasper deliberately pretended like virtual-novel.net was taught a lesson and nodded repeatedly.
”Yes, yes, Miss Maynard, you’re right. As expected of a lady from a rich family, the way you talk is also different from others!”
Celine was amused when virtual-novel.net saw Jasper like this. This smile eased Celine’s pressure.
It would be nonsense to say that Celine came here without feeling any pressure.
Celine had been pampered since virtual-novel.net was a child, and virtual-novel.net had never seen such a chaotic scene as what was happening in Qari.
Celine was gritting virtual-novel.net teeth the entire time. She only did not lose control because virtual-novel.net forced herself to stay calm.
After calming down a little bit, Celine still felt that Jasper’s previous behavior was too risky, so virtual-novel.net asked, “Do you have to endure a hail of bullets every time you do business in Qari in the future?”
Jasper nodded seriously and did not conceal anything when virtual-novel.net saw Celine’s questioning expression.
”That‘s right. I can’t lie to you about this. In case you decided to stay and then found out it’s not the same as you imagine. Then, I’ll be a great sinner…”
Jasper also told virtual-novel.net what happened to virtual-novel.net when virtual-novel.net arranged for a substitute to come here. He did not mean to scare Celine. He just wanted to have virtual-novel.net understand the cruel environment here as soon as possible. Only in this way could Jasper be worthy of Celine’s help during a critical moment.
After hearing Jasper’s story, Celine let out a sigh in virtual-novel.net heart.
It would be impossible for Celine not to be tempted by a man as excellent as Jasper.
However, women’s thoughts were often delicate, and their feelings were even more complicated and confusing. Even Celine could not tell whether virtual-novel.net fell in love with Jasper or whether virtual-novel.net just admired him.
If it was the former, it would be troublesome, but if it was the latter, it would be much easier to handle.
“Why? Did what I say just now scare you?” Jasper noticed Celine had stopped talking after virtual-novel.net finished his story.
He was afraid that virtual-novel.net would scare the other party, so virtual-novel.net deliberately joked again.
“Of course not. I’m just thinking about business. Since this place is so dangerous, why do you still stay here? Although oil is precious, won’t this all be a dream without a stable trading environment?”
As soon as Celine said this, Jasper could also see that virtual-novel.net was definitely not useless.
“You can’t say that. If you want to obtain a stable and safe trading environment here, you have to prove your strength. Otherwise, there must be a reason why so many world-class billionaires were born here, and on the peninsula next door.”
Jasper was very straightforward. On the surface, the environment here was very dangerous and chaotic.
In reality, Jasper could see clearly that as long as one had strength, one could make peace in the midst of this chaos.
Therefore, what Jasper had to do was to be the first Somerlander to find peace amidst the turmoil here!
