Living With My Lady Boss romance Capítulo 178

Jasmine and Albert had already left the room by the time Albert was done talking.

"What, I have an assistant too?" Wilbur asked, but his question went unanswered.

He stared at the closed door in silence.

He had surveyed with his spirit energy earlier and sensed a powerful spirit energy within Jasmine. She was pretty much on the same level as Wilbur and was definitely an elite cultivator.

However, he did not seem to detect anything in Albert. There was not an ounce of spirit energy, which made him seem like a mortal.

However, there was no way he could have gotten the position he was in if he did not have any powers, and he had admitted himself that he did have them.

Wilbur had the urge to tap into Albert's conscience several times, wanting to get some information through his soul.

He managed to hold himself back in the end. Who knew what that old man could be hiding? Moreover, Wilbur might end up humiliating himself or even risking his life. That would be bad.

Wilbur scoffed, then picked up the phone he had just been given and fiddled around with it.

"So, you think you know all my secrets? I'm sure you don't know that I have the Dragon God's grace too."

Wilbur set a password on his new phone before opening the contacts list.

There were only two contacts in there. One of them was Beverly Torres, Wilbur's personal handler, and the other was Jasmine Veila, the assistant to the head of the department.

Wilbur stared at Jasmine's name for a while before eventually cracking up into sly laughter.

He remembered reading a rather popular novel when he was a teenager. The female lead in the novel was named Jasmine Veila, and she was everyone's fictional crush back then. What a coincidence.

Wilbur thought of Ryder after that.

This man was extremely powerful as well. The problem was that he was a bit of a stickler for rules, and Wilbur had a feeling the two of them would not really get along.

Wilbur hung up the call, barking out a laugh. He had a team under him now, and what a team it was. This was the stuff regular people could only dream of, but Wilbur was not the slightest bit happy about it.

He was not sure if this would make him any new enemies in the future. Who knew what these other cultivators were like, or what kind of high-risk missions he might get?

Surely such power would come with a reasonable amount of responsibility.

"Sigh!" Wilbur huffed exasperatedly. He felt like his fate was bobbing about in a vast ocean, with countless waves tossing him around mercilessly, leaving him with no way out.

Just then, his phone rang with a call. Seeing that it was Faron, he answered it.

"What's up?"

"Nothing, bro. I just wanted to know where you're at. Let's have some fun."

Wilbur gave it some thought. "There's going to be a banquet tonight. Do you want to go?"
