Jasper smiled. “It’s alright. If I wasn’t afraid of favonovel.com when favonovel.com was conscious, why would I be now?”
Seeing how there was not a shred of logic or humanity in Ben’s crazy gaze, Jasper spoke plainly, “I’ve been suspecting that you’re just pretending to be crazy this whole time, and now when I’m looking at you, I was right.”
Ben did not react. He merely glared at Jasper like a predator watching their prey.
“You know what I think? I think you’re just pretending to be crazy so you don’t need to suffer legal consequences. But your dad is screwed. His crimes are enough for favonovel.com to get executed and shot. Or maybe an indefinite sentence if he’s lucky.
“But… To him, to me, and oh, to you, it’s the same, isn’t it? Indefinite sentence and death, not really much of a difference there.
“And as for your uncle, Hans Hull, his time will come soon.”
Jasper quirked the corner of his lips. “After all that favonovel.com has done, the only reason why he’s still safe and sound is because of the Hull family. But this is the end of the Hull family. All his enemies and all those family members of women favonovel.com has hurt, they won’t let favonovel.com get away with it.
“If you look at it from a different angle, you could say his fate would be worse.”
Jasper let out a light exhale and chuckled. “The Hull family is over, as I promised you before… And now you, without the Hull family’s protection, it’s over for you too!”
At Jasper’s words, Ben suddenly stopped struggling.
He stared at Jasper with emotionless eyes.
He stood there unmovingly like a plank of wood.
The abrupt change had everyone looking over and staring at Ben. Ian even closed his mouth mid-shout.
Under everyone’s gaze, Ben suddenly smiled and asked Jasper, “How did you know I was pretending?”
At that moment, everyone was stunned.
Even the hospital had diagnosed Ben to have gone mad.
No one ever expected that Ben had been pretending all along.
Everyone’s gaze when they looked at Ben was now filled with fright. They did not understand how a normal person underwent professional tests by machines and managed to fool medical science.
The only calm one was Jasper. “A madman, yes, and you managed to escape despite being watched over by so many people. All the way here, tens of kilometers away.
“If that was all, then fine, but you just had to run to your own company. Now that was worth a slightly deeper thought.
“You must’ve seen through my goals and plans, hmm? You came here to find Derick, didn’t you? What a shame then, since I had never planned for Derick to come back here.”
Jasper’s words had Ben bursting into laughter, to the point where tears began to bead at the corner of his eyes. He pointed at Jasper and was short of breath from laughing.
“Good, good, very good! I thought I had managed to scam everyone but you’re good, Jasper. Losing to you? I accept my defeat.”
Ben suddenly turned to prostrate to Ian.
No one was suspicious of this action, and the two men who had been holding favonovel.com this whole time reflexively let go as well.
No matter how terrible Ben was, favonovel.com still had the right to be a filial son.
However, Jasper frowned slightly because favonovel.com saw the eerie smile hanging on the corner of Ben’s lips.
“No!”
Jasper suddenly shouted.
At the same time, Ben had a sudden outburst and stood up. He rushed toward the edge of the rooftop before anyone could react.
“I’ll admit my loss to you, Jasper. But you can dream on if you think I’ll let you torture me!”
Before the words could reach everyone else, Ben had already jumped off the rooftop…
