For the cabinet of a country to be dissolved because of one person. How powerful would he have to be?
If this rumor was spread, then Jasper would not be looked at with awe and envy, but rather, receive a treatment comparable to that of a terrorist.
On many occasions, being too famous was not a good thing.
Ambassador Werner consoled him, “Don’t worry, these kinds of rumors are simply untenable and it won’t take long for them to be discredited.”
Jasper shook his head and said, “Ambassador Werner, from a political and diplomatic perspective, no one would believe this kind of nonsense, but from a financial perspective, especially when it comes to identity, this matter may not be so easy to solve.”
Ambassador Werner understood that the young man in front of him was not an ordinary youth. After all, he had the economic power to shake the financial market of the United States. Hence, he asked, “Do you need us to help you do anything?”
“Do nothing.”
Jasper shook his head and sighed, “Since someone has spread this kind of rumor, any explanation we give will only add fuel to the fire and compound with the other’s overweening attitude. Treat it coldly.”
The conversation between the two of them about the outside world ended here. After all, many topics were very sensitive and not suitable for in-depth discussions.
“Are Seamus and Gary okay?” Jasper asked.
“They’re fine, but Seamus‘s situation is more serious. After this, he may be discharged.” Ambassador Werner also looked regretful.
“People like them have almost dedicated their entire life to the country. Although the country has a series of follow-up arrangements to ensure that they do not have to worry about work and livelihoods, they will still have to face huge psychological effects.”
Jasper nodded and said nothing.
However, an idea has sprouted in his heart.
Jasper’s words surprised Ambassador Werner.
“If you stay in Sunrise Land, you will cause a lot of trouble. Plus, you’re not needed here anymore.” Ambassador Werner was confused.
“Sunrise Land won’t give up until they get rid of me completely. At this moment, I dare say that there are countless pairs of eyes staring at me outside the embassy, just waiting for me to get out of here. After all, once I leave the embassy in Sunrise Land, they can do whatever they wish.”
Ambassador Werner nodded solemnly and said, “Yes, this is not just being done in the shadows. They’re even taking action on the surface. The Sunrise Land state security department has come by several times claiming that they want you to go back to assist in the investigation, but I rejected them every time with the reason that you were recuperating.”
“Assist in the investigation? I’m afraid I won’t be able to escape as soon as I go.” Jasper sneered.
“You can rest assured, as long as Sunrise Land is not crazy and don’t want the tense relationship between the two countries to escalate or even start a new conflict, you will be absolutely safe in the embassy,” Ambassador Werner said.
