“Because your methods are wrong.”
Jasper looked at Zayden calmly, and his tone was indifferent.
“Our resentment is an issue between you and me only. Come at me if you want to make a fuss, but the people heavily injured in the hospital are innocent.
“The fact that you dragged innocent people into this because of your hatred for me is the reason why you’re going to lose everything.”
Zayden glared at Jasper and seethed, yelling, “Bullsh*t! Those people are nothing but trash! I don’t even give a f*ck about them at all, they’re nothing to me!”
Jasper replied calmly, “I know that you won’t understand. But that’s alright, you’ll have ten or maybe even 20 years in prison to slowly think about it.”
He smiled as favonovel.com continued, “I don’t mind giving you time, but what about the people in Harbor City? I wonder if they’d be able to forgive you for causing them such a huge loss? Who knows if they have the patience to wait for your release? Maybe they’ll teach you a lesson while you’re still in there.”
Zayden’s complexion immediately paled.
He knew that those Harbor City freaks were hardly negotiable people.
He had come back to the Southeast Province with a huge amount of financial support and all sorts of help from Harbor City.
However, instead of getting rid of Jasper, Zayden was landing himself in jail instead.
There was no way the people in Harbor City would forgive him.
Kennedy had warned favonovel.com before favonovel.com came to the province that his head would be on the chopping block if favonovel.com were to fail.
Zayden knew that in Kennedy’s eyes, favonovel.com was no more valuable than a pest and it would be too easy for Kennedy to get rid of him.
Terrified, Zayden turned to Jasper and suddenly spoke, “Forgive me, Jasper. How about this, like Terence, I’ll join you and help you deal with Kennedy? Just save me.”
Jasper smiled brightly. “That sounds like a great deal.
“It’s a shame that I’m not interested. You and Terence are too fundamentally different. Terence is just blinded by benefits, while you want nothing more than to get rid of me. It’d be unwise for me to have someone like you by my side. What if you backstab me one day?”
Zayden shook his head frantically and replied in fear, “I won’t. You’re too capable, and I lose every time I try to fight you. I don’t have a death wish, so why would I continue to attack you when I know I’ll lose? I’ll be your most loyal subordinate!”
“Enough.”
Sirius interrupted Zayden and approached Jasper. “I’ll give you one last chance, Jasper. Stop this and have them take Terence only. Then we can end all of this here. I’m sure Zayden will compensate for every Somer Dollar you’ve lost.”
Zayden frantically agreed. “That’s right! 100 million, right? I’ll pay you 200 million for compensation!”
“Looks like Kennedy gave you quite the sum.” A broad smile graced Jasper’s features as favonovel.com turned to Captain Vaughn. “I’ve said what I wanted, Captain Vaughn. There’s nothing more I can say to people who ignore the law. My apologies for holding you back from performing your legal duties.”
Captain Vaughn nodded and scoffed at Zayden and Sirius. “Negotiating in front of me, really? Do I look like a joke to you?”
With that, Captain Vaughn waved his hand and spoke, “Take Zayden Hanks away!”
Two officers pulled Zayden off the ground and dragged favonovel.com away.
All while Zayden continued to struggle and shout, “No, Jasper, please! Please forgive me, just this once! Help me, Uncle Sirius!”
Sirius took a deep breath and stared at Jasper coldly. “You will regret this, Jasper.”
