Life at the Top

Chapter 2234

Jasper would never admit defeat. If he were so easily intimidated by this, then Jasper would not be able to make it to where he was today.

Following the marks on the map, they soon came to the other side of Bashra.

There was an oil comp any belonging to the Kurt family here, and it should be a family business.

Jasper walked in, went to the front desk, and took out the business card that Baltimore gave him earlier. He did not expect to see Baltimore here. However, Jasper would consider it a success if the Kurt family would respond to him.

It was a pity that Jasper was obviously too naive. He was just courteously taken to the reception area by the front desk and after that, no one paid attention to him again.

After realizing he had been sidelined, Jasper did not waste any more time. He put away his business card and went outside the company.

“Jasper, what now? Are we going back?” Julian asked tentatively, and Jasper quickly shook his head.

“No, we can still visit their oil fields. Perhaps Baltimore is there.”

Jasper felt that if Baltimore was a man of action, there would be a greater chance of running into him there. Therefore, Julian did not hesitate anymore, and immediately drove Jasper to the oil field.

The oil fields distributed near Bashra were located on the outskirts of the city. Their distance from the urban area was not the only criterion. Because no matter how far the distance was, as long as the output of the oilfield was large and of high-quality, they could even build a city around it.

After about half an hour’s drive, Jasper and Julian approached the oil field.

Here, they saw heavily armed security personnel. The entire oilfield looked like an impregnable castle.

Jasper could not help admiring it after seeing it. On the contrary, Julian had a serious expression.

“Have you ever seen something like this before?” Jasper asked.

“Yes, but it’s my first time seeing it at an oil field. Jasper, you have to be careful,” Julian said solemnly.

“It’s okay, we are here to do business, so don’t be nervous!”

Jasper believed that as long as they did not show hostility, the other party would not do anything reckless as well. Sure enough, after their car was pulled over, Jasper immediately took out the business card Baltimore gave him.

The other party gave Jasper a meaningful look and asked them to wait a moment.

About ten minutes later, a man in a suit came out.

“Which one of you wants to see Mr. Baltimore?”

“It’s me. My name is Jasper Laine and I’m here to discuss a partnership with Mr. Baltimore. We talked before, and this time I made a special trip to come see him.”

Jasper seemed very polite, and the other party was also very courteous.

“I’m the manager here. This is an industrial area, so it’s not suitable for guests. Please come with me…”

Soon, the manager brought Jasper and Julian to one of the most luxurious restaurants nearby. Although this restaurant was not comparable to the one in Bashra, it was already considered high-end in the industrial area.

“Please wait here, Sirs. As soon as Mr. Baltimore comes back, I will notify you immediately.”

“Okay, thanks!”

The manager then turned and left.

Lunchtime soon arrived as they waited in boredom.

Jasper ordered a lot of food and was going to try some local specialties. After the two of them finished eating, the manager still did not return.

Julian could not take it anymore and stood up immediately. “Jasper, why don’t I go and have a look?”

Before Jasper could speak, the owner of the restaurant spoke.

“I think you two should go back, you have been tricked!”

Upon hearing this, Jasper knew that the owner of the restaurant knew the inside story.

“Boss, why did you say that?”Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
