Jasmine found herself caught off guard, pondering, “Why is Hashimoto Konzen calling me at this hour? Could it be… have they already reached a decision?”


    With this thought in mind, Jasmine felt a wave of nervousness wash over her. She quickly answered the call, asking, “Mr. Hashimoto, what can I assist you with at thiste hour?”


    Hashimoto Kon responded with a smile, “Miss Moore, I’ve ryed your intention to cooperate to our chairman, and he was truly impressed by your sincerity. He asked me to let you know that the contract will be signed tonight!”


    Jasmine was taken aback by the unexpected news and eximed, “Mr. Hashimoto, is that really true?!”


    With a gentle smile, Hashimoto replied, “I wouldn’t make such ims lightly. I’m merely the representative assigned to negotiate with you. The realmendationes from our chairman, and if he has said it, you can be assured it is true.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Jasmine’s excitement bubbled over, “That’s fantastic! Mr. Hashimoto, does the chairman want to finalize the contract tonight?”


    “Exactly!” Hashimoto confirmed. “Our chairman believes that since you’re so earnest, we should reciprocate and sign the contract as soon as possible.”


    Jasmine quickly responded, “Yes! Please provide me with the address, Mr. Hashimoto, and I’ll head over right away!”


    Hashimoto exined, “Miss Moore, our chairman was supposed to be on vacation at his vi in West Domo County today. He would like you toe to West Domo County to sign the contract.”


    Jasmine inquired, “West Domo County? Where exactly is that? I’m not very familiar with Tokyo, so please excuse my ignorance…”


    Hashimoto smiled reassuringly, “West Domo County is located west of Tokyo, about seventy to eighty kilometers away. You should be able to reach it in around an hour. Your driver should know the way, so if it’s convenient, you cane over now.”


    Without a moment’s hesitation, Jasmine replied, “Okay, no problem! I’ll be on my way!”


    After ending the call, Jasmine excitedly dialed her assistant, unable to contain her enthusiasm. “rice, get ready! We’re leaving in five minutes to sign the contract with the chairman of New Nippon Iron!”


    “What?!” rice gasped, surprised. “Lady Moore, has New Nippon Steel agreed to sign?”


    “Yes!” Jasmine eximed. “Their chairman wants us to sign right now! You and Dee need to get ready, and have the driver prepare the car!”


    “Understood, Lady Moore!”


    Just five minutester, Jasmine hurried out of her room.


    Two of her female assistants joined her at the door. rice informed her, “Lady Moore, the driver is waiting for us at the hotel entrance. We can head down directly!”


    “Great!” Jasmine nodded, feeling a rush of impatience. “Let’s hurry downstairs!”


    Once in the car, Jasmine shared the address that Hashimoto had provided with the Chinese driver she had hired in Tokyo.


    The driver promptly input the address into the navigation system. As he started driving, he informed Jasmine, “Miss Moore, the traffic is clear, and we should arrive in about an hour and twenty minutes.”


    “Sounds good,” Jasmine replied, feeling the excitement build.


    At that moment, rice suggested, “Lady Moore, should we share the good news with Lord Moore in advance to brighten his day?”


    “That’s a great idea,” Jasmine agreed, reaching for her cellphone to call her grandfather and share her progress. However, she hesitated, recalling her brother Rueben’s words from earlier that day. He had joked about waking up to the good news of her sessfully signing the contract. Jasmine thought it might be better to wait until after the contract was signed to surprise them all.


    With that decision in mind, Jasmine put her phone away and told rice, “It’s a bit premature to share the news since the contract isn’t signed yet. Let’s wait until it’s official.”<fna201> Th?s chapter is updated by find[?]ovel</fna201>
