Chapter 335
Just then, Xavier came over with a cup of coffee. “Sir, I’ve contacted Ms. Sliva from Alexa’s
firm. She’s
willing to meet up with you to discuss the matter.”
“Really?”
“Yes. But she’s made it clear that that’s all it is. She seemed pretty cold and unwilling to
do it, honestly.
Xavier sighed. “I just hope our endeavor doesn’t go kaput.”
“Don’t worry. I’m not giving up until Alexa meets me herself.”
They waited in Yoarkley for three days before Jasper met with Sliva at a café near Alexa’s
design firm. He
wasn’t even invited over to the actual office.
“I’ll get straight to the point, Mr. Jasper.” Sliva’s expression was one of pride and mild
annoyance. “Thus
far, Alexa has only made jewelry for presidential members, royalty, and those who have
contributed

“Ada Kingsley may be a celebrity, but she does not fall into any of the above precedent
categories.”
Xavier scowled, unable to understand what the fuss was all about when it was just
jewelry!
Sliva added, “I do not mean to sound standoffish. This is merely the truth.”
Jasper responded, “I have been actively involved in charitable work and have established
charities and
trust funds in my mother’s name since I was young.
“I have always enthusiastically supported organizations dedicated to alleviating poverty
and orphanages.
I hope Alexa can consider this and not view it as just another celebrity trying to get their
way.
“We are prepared to assist Alexa in any way, including financial support. Additionally, we
intend to donate
the proceeds from the homecoming party to local charities to help the community.”
“Oh? Do you think that’s all Alexa cares about? Do you think she’s so narrow-minded?”
Sliva sneered.
Jasper cleared his throat. “Of course not.”
“Countless people have come to us seeking Alexa’s help over the years, all in the name of
charity. Yet
most of them were secretly money launderers and crooks. Who knows if I’m sitting across
one now?”
Jasper’s hand balled into a fist.

Xavier had had enough. “Ms. Sliva, we genuinely mean well. There’s no need to insinuate
anything unkind
whatsoever.”
Jasper held out a hand to stop him from speaking further.
“I’ve always personally reviewed my company’s assets and cash flow. This event will be
included as well. I can send you all the receipts and listings of related costs for your
perusal.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSliva looked away. “I will let Alexa know of your proposal, Mr. Jasper. But at the end of the
day, Alexa will
be the one to decide on whether she will or will not join you. You’re not the only one who
has come to
seek her help.”
Sliva turned around and left right away, barely touching her coffee.
Xavier was pissed. “What was that? She was so rude! Are all Yoarkley women this
irritating?”
“We need to come up with a plan right away.” Jasper unclenched his hands. “My guess is
Alexa is treating Alyssa and her team just as tough as she’s treating ours, given our goals
are the same. I don’t think Alyssa
could propose anything better than we can, either.”
“Do you have something in mind, sir?”
“We need to start with Ada’s welcoming party first without letting up on Alexa. Keep an
eye on Alyssa’s
progress. If she so much as fidgets in regards to Alexa, let me know straight away!”
