CHAPTER 866: CHAPTER 866: WHICH COMES FIRST, TOMORROW OR THE UNEXPECTED?

In an instant, many eyes turned towards the business mogul and the little celebrity beside him.

Their position, just ahead and to the left of Jasper Sinclair, was slightly forward, but that didn’t mean their status could surpass the Sinclair Family.

Jasper Sinclair chose a position further back for two reasons.

Firstly, after staring below for a long time, your neck gets sore, just like watching a movie in a theater.

Secondly, people here are more focused on etiquette; everyone looks forward and doesn’t twist their necks to look back. He hadn’t completely regained his memory and wasn’t keen on interacting with too many people.

It’s precisely because of this that the mogul didn’t know who was bidding against him.

Even if one turned around, it would be difficult to clearly see Jasper Sinclair’s face; the distance was too great.

Not just physical distance, but also an unbridgeable gap between their social classes.

To avoid drawing too much attention, Jasper signaled to Louis Hayes and extended two fingers.

Louis grasped the hint and raised the bid to two hundred million.

This time, the price was about ten times higher than before.

No matter how wealthy a mogul is, they wouldn’t spend a fortune on a minor celebrity.

In the end, the ring was secured by Louis for two hundred million.

Not only that, he remembered the two faces in the bidding, secretly thinking that the little celebrity’s good days were numbered.

About a week later, news spread in the entertainment circle of a rising starlet being banned...

The relationship between Jasper Sinclair and Nora Northwood eased because of these rings worth two hundred million.

VK connected with a female boss from Portoria, and the revenue for October skyrocketed.

Winter was nearly upon them, and Nora and Jasper discussed returning to the old residence to make dumplings with everyone on the eve of winter.

Eating dumplings on the eve of winter ensures your ears won’t freeze off the following year.

Unexpectedly, an incident arrived just before tomorrow...

The syndicate once struck by Jasper Sinclair was down to their final stronghold.

Individuals who dwell within the underworld wouldn’t allow their dignity to be repeatedly challenged.

The syndicate’s biggest boss was surnamed King; no one knew his real name, everyone simply called him Boss King, he was of Eastern descent.

Boss King smuggled into the Stanton City area.

After several investigations, he learned Jasper Sinclair’s movements.

At that time, Jasper was immersed in deep affection, completely unaware of the impending danger approaching quietly.

He and Nora had agreed to meet at VK after work.

Coincidentally, on that day, light snow began to fall.

The first snow of the winter came rather unexpectedly and people hadn’t switched to snow tires.

The roads were particularly congested.

Be it private cars or taxis, they didn’t dare speed too much for safety’s sake.

Jasper sat in the back seat, fiddling lazily with a cellphone.

"It’s snowing, there’s a traffic jam, might be half an hour late."

When Nora received the message, she was in the lab personally guiding VK’s newly employed perfumer.

The lab didn’t have windows, so she couldn’t see outside, naturally unaware of the snow.

She put down her phone and returned to her office, indeed, snowflakes were dancing outside.

It was larger than in previous years.

Nora opened the small ventilation window, extended her palm outside, quickly catching several snowflakes, which melted into small droplets in her hand, moist and glistening.
