The Amazing son in law Chapter 2053
The vehicle carrying Jasmine zoomed out of downtown Tokyo, heading towards the mountainous regions of the western suburbs.
Despite Japan’s mountainous landscape, Tokyo itself is situated in the flat Kanto plain, meaning the city features minimal elevation. It isn’t until one travels several dozen kilometers west, reaching West Domo County, that the terrain begins to rise into the rugged hills.
As they ascended the winding mountain roads, they found that the pathways were in excellent condition, allowing commercial vehicles to gradually gain altitude with ease.
From an aerial perspective, the only vehicle with its lights illuminated was the one Jasmine was in, maneuvering through the mountains.
Inside the car, Jasmine felt a wave of happiness wash over her.
Although the Moore family had relinquished their controlling stake in their final proposal with New Nippon Steel, the silver lining was that this stake did not end up in New Nippon Steel’s hands either, resulting in a compromise that was somewhat agreeable.
Since taking over the leadership of the Moore family, Jasmine had been diligent in her efforts, even though her accomplishments hadn’t been particularly remarkable at that point.
This made her place significant value on the collaboration with Nippon Steel, as it represented a chance to prove her capabilities in enhancing the Moore family’s legacy.
By now, the car had nearly completed its journey along Pan Mountain Road, and whenever it veered to the eastern side of the mountain, the stunning night view of Tokyo unfolded below.
Clarice, seated next to Jasmine, excitedly pulled out her phone and exclaimed, “The night view of Tokyo from up here is breathtaking…” She attempted to capture the moment but quickly added with disappointment, “Oh no, the pictures aren’t coming out clear at night; they just don’t capture the essence!”
Jasmine offered a small smile and replied, “For night photography, you need a longer exposure time since the light is dim. To truly capture this kind of scene, you’d need a broad viewpoint and an SLR camera with a tripod set to long exposure.”
Clarice’s eyes widened in surprise. “Lady Moore, you know about photography?”
Jasmine chuckled, “In college, joining various interest groups was quite popular. Since I’m not much of a performer in singing or dancing, I opted for photography instead.”
Clarice beamed, “I’d love to learn from you sometime!”
Jasmine nodded, saying, “If the contract is finalized, we’ll take a few days to relax in Tokyo. I’ll buy an SLR and a tripod, and we can come back here to capture the night scenes.”
“That sounds fantastic!” Clarice replied enthusiastically. “I’ll get to explore Tokyo!”
As they spoke, the vehicle approached a U-shaped curve on Panshan Highway. The driver instinctively slowed down to navigate the bend, but then a low roar echoed from ahead.
Upon turning on the high beams, the driver was shocked to see a fully loaded heavy truck occupying the middle of the road, barreling downhill straight towards them!
The massive truck was speeding down the slope, and on such narrow mountain roads, the potential for a catastrophic collision was alarming. Chapters first released on fındnovel.net
The commercial vehicle’s driver frantically flashed lights and sounded the siren, but the truck continued on its path, unyielding.
Adding to the urgency, the mountain road was quite narrow, with only two lanes; the truck’s position left no room for the commercial vehicle to maneuver out of the way!
In an instant, a flurry of questions raced through Jasmine’s mind: “What’s wrong with that truck? Why isn’t it slowing down?!”
Before she could process the situation further, the vehicle collided head-on with the massive truck!
Given that the truck was descending from an incline and heavily loaded, its sheer weight and momentum rendered the commercial vehicle Jasmine was in as fragile as paper!
