Jasperâs remarks left everyone stunned. They could not believe how straightforward and sharp-
tongued.
he was.
Upon hearing what Jasper said, the business titans remained composing their expressions well. However, their gazes toward Dominic carried a tinge of disdain.
They agreed that if Dominic wanted to discuss business, he should do it correctly. How could hel suddenly extend an invitation?
Besides, why was he determined to involve his daughter, whom Jasper and Javier had never seen fore?
His intentions were clear as day.
Yet, Dominic did not expect Jasper to be such a straightforward and unforgiving person. He had just revealed his hidden agenda a little. However, the latter promptly intervened, putting an end to it.
Usually, Dominic was someone who hid his emotions behind a smiling façade. But at that moment, he found it hard to maintain his composure.
His smile froze as he awkwardly said, âHahaha! Youâre right, Mr. Beckett. My apologies for the abruptness.
âI should formally invite the both of you. Itâs just that tonight is a rare opportunity to meet Mr. Javier, and I got too excited. So-â
Jasper interrupted, âSince youâre happy to see my father, you should invite him. After all, heâs the chairman of Beckett Group. So, discussing it with him would be just as effective.â
After saying that, he glanced at Dominic coldly before averting his gaze. Jasper continued in an iciert âIâm just curious. Is Mr. Taylor aware youâre representing KS Group to talk business with us?â
tone.
Dominic was momentarily stunned. Then, he chuckled and responded, âJonah has entrusted the project to me. He lets me undertake full responsibility, âOf course, I prioritize working with powerful corporations. Heâll be delighted to know that we can work with the Beckett Group. Iâm sure heâll support us.
A cold, faint smile crept onto Jasperâs face, his gaze piercing. âWould Mr. Taylor still be delighted and supportive if he finds out that you secretly contacted Ms Alyssaâs ex-husband to discuss a partnership?â
The attendees were shocked upon learning that. On the other hand, Javier frowned and reprimanded Jasper, why are you bringing this up here?â
Dominic widened his eyes in disbelief. His mouth hung slightly agape. He had a hard time processing the âJasper, what took you so long to get here?â Javier could not help but complain. Yet, he was secretly relieved.
Dominicâs smile froze momentarily. Just as he was about to speak, Jasper said coldly, âMr. Dominic, if you genuinely want to talk about business, you can choose a more appropriate time.
âYou canât just decide as you like. At the very least, you should make an appointment. After all, weâre not close enough to meet any time, anywhere.â
âMr. Beckett, actually, I-â
Jasperâs gaze grew colder. âIf you have something other than business in mind, such as introducing your daughter, then Iâm sorry. I decline all matchmaking arrangements,â he said straightforwardly.
