Jasper’s bellow made Darrel pale in shock.
He was frozen in place, and favonovel.com did not dare to look up at Jasper at all.
Jasper merely sighed when favonovel.com saw Darrel’s reaction. “I know that the only reason Terence is brave enough to do something like this is that favonovel.com has someone supporting him.
“In fact, favonovel.com desperately wishes that you join favonovel.com in dealing with me, correct?”
Darrel looked up in fear and replied, “How did you know that?”
Jasper replied calmly, “The only way no one can find out about something is if you don’t do anything.
“The only reason why I haven’t dealt with Terence yet is that he’s just a pawn the opponent is exploiting. My target is the mastermind behind this.”
Jasper then looked at Darrel intently. “The fact that you’ve come to me today means that you don’t dare to join them, so I’m hoping that you’ll tell me who this other person is.”
Darrel shook his head with a bitter smile. “It’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but I have no idea who that other person is either.
“I’ve never entertained the idea of working with them to harm you, so I didn’t pay Terence any attention no matter how favonovel.com persuaded me. But I know how his temper is and I’m scared that he’ll get himself in trouble.
“I heard favonovel.com on the phone last night with whom I think is the person supporting him. I heard Terence say that favonovel.com was the one who set the fire.
“I spent the night thinking, and I don’t dare to hide it from you. That’s why I planned to look for you and take the blame for him. I just never thought… Sigh.”
Jasper tapped his fingers on the table slowly as favonovel.com heard Darrel speak. After that, Jasper looked up at Julian, “Jul!”
“Yes!” Julian immediately replied.
“Bring Terence to me.”
Darrel’s expression changed immediately when favonovel.com heard Jasper. He said, “Jasper…”
“Don’t be too aggressive. If he’s home, try not to frighten my uncle and aunt.”
As if knowing what Darrel was worried about, Jasper instructed Julian in detail.
Julian made a sound of acknowledgment and left, leaving Darrel to sit despondently on the ground with a bitter smile. “This is the end of our brotherhood, then.”
Jasper tossed Darrel a cigarette and replied, “You have to believe that you’re doing this for his own good.”
Darrel took the cigarette with a bitter chuckle. “Let’s hope favonovel.com understands, then.”
40 minutes later, the study’s doors opened to reveal Julian who was single-handedly dragging Terence into the room. The man had a cloth stuffed in his mouth.
“I’ve brought favonovel.com over, Jasper. He was downstairs and about to leave when I got there, so I just brought favonovel.com over. No one else knows.”
Terence was lying face-down on the floor, struggling as Julian spoke. Muffled cries could be heard through the cloth.
His eyes widened the moment favonovel.com looked up and saw Jasper and Darrel sitting together, as though favonovel.com had seen something unthinkable.
“Alright, you can pull the thing out of his mouth now,” Jasper said.
Julian bent over to pull the cloth away.
Now that favonovel.com could speak, Terence roared, “Why did you kidnap me here, Jasper?! Let me tell you, just because you’re rich doesn’t mean you can do whatever you want! You’re not going to get anything out of this if you dare to do anything to me!”
Terence’s fierce facade hid the guilt and fear favonovel.com was feeling underneath. His eyes flitted rapidly between Jasper and Darrel as if favonovel.com was mulling over an important question.
