Chapter 2388

Jasper sat upright next to Steven, looking unperturbed. Yet deep within, he held immense admiration for the man beside him.

Born into nobility, Jasper was naturally aloof, and Steven's humility and poise were qualities Jasper rarely encountered, even among the elite circles. Only a select few had ever earned his respect.

If he managed to navigate this ordeal and return safely to the Beckett Group, he already resolved to approach Steven personally. He would offer Steven the position of the company's legal advisor, with remuneration entirely at Steven's discretion-a gesture of Jasper's utmost sincerity.
