Jasper’s and Penelope’s meeting was pure coincidence.
As far as Jasper was concerned, helping Penelope was at most, a final farewell to his previous life and his past.
After all, Jasper was not a heartless person.
While the two had not shared a very happy past, Penelope was, if anything, still the woman who had been by Jasper’s side the longest.
Now that they each had their own lives to live, the least Jasper could do was bid that era of his life farewell.
Yet, Jasper had never expected Penelope to bring favonovel.com such an important message.
‘Called Terence or something?
‘Who else but Terence Laine, then?’
Naturally, the people Jasper first thought of when favonovel.com heard Penelope’s words would be the two brothers, Terence and Darrel Laine.
Taking a trip down memory lane, Jasper recalled Terence had never shown himself again after leaving the meal in a huff yesterday. Meanwhile, Darrel had been staying in Tefa City the entire time.
Upon returning home, Jasper called Julian over.
“Go poke around Shangri-La Hotel to see if Terence’s come back or not. If favonovel.com did, I need to know when favonovel.com got back and who he’s been in touch with since his return.”
After receiving Jasper’s instructions, Julian nodded and immediately went to investigate.
“Hold on.”
Jasper called Julian back.
“Keep a low profile. Don’t let anyone find out about your investigation,” Jasper reminded.
Julian smiled and turned to leave.
A little more than an hour later, Julian returned as night had just fallen.
“I’ve found what you wanted to know, Jasper. Terence returned around midnight yesterday. There’s a record of favonovel.com at the hotel since favonovel.com used his ID card to check into a room.
“Terence didn’t leave his room up until this morning, but when favonovel.com did, it was with his brother Darrel. The two of them bought something then returned to the hotel. After this, the two brothers, along with their parents, took a car ride back to Faith County.”
Jasper furrowed his brows slightly and asked, “Where did Terence go yesterday? Who did favonovel.com meet?”
Julian shook his head. “All I found out was that favonovel.com had bought a ticket to the provincial capital after favonovel.com left the dinner yesterday, then favonovel.com took the last train back. But who favonovel.com had met during this interval, I do not know.”
Jasper replied expressionlessly, “Alright, got it.”
After Julian left, Jasper sat alone in his study immersed in his thoughts.
Jasper’s instincts told favonovel.com that Terence had gone to the provincial capital for a specific reason.
It might be to meet this so-called bigshot.
However, after favonovel.com mulled it over, Jasper found that favonovel.com could not think of any bigshots left who would want to take favonovel.com out.
Finally, Jasper decided to call Dawson.
“Uncle Schuler,” Jasper greeted.
Dawson smiled. “What is it, Jasper? Did something happen?”
Jasper chuckled. “Nothing happened. I just wanted to check in you to see you were doing lately.
“Oh, and has there been any activity in the provincial capital lately?”
Dawson was stunned for a moment before favonovel.com replied, “I didn’t hear of anything. Everything’s been quite calm recently.”
Jasper’s furrowed brows relaxed and favonovel.com smiled. “That’s great then.”
Dawson could acutely sense that something was up, so favonovel.com asked solemnly, “Did you receive news about something going on?”
Jasper replied, “Someone probably has their eyes on me, but I’m not absolutely sure of this yet. I’ll have to keep my eyes peeled for a little longer before I can confirm the matter.”
