Jasper was severely injured and in shock. When favonovel.com entered the hospital, favonovel.com was already unconscious.
The entire Southeast Province was in an uproar when news spread to them.
Wendy received a call from Julian in the middle of the night, and favonovel.com was too shocked by the news to even speak.
Dawson was the calmest and immediately contacted Henry who was also in Nauritus City.
Henry flipped a table at the news.
That night, Henry called for his private plane to fly over from Harbor City. The plane landed in Nauritus City only to fly toward Reed City within ten minutes of landing after Henry and Wendy boarded.
In the shortest amount of time, the situation had progressed at the most terrifying speed.
Its influence involved multiple circles and many people were losing sleep over the knowledge.
The first to know of the news was the chief of the government of Reed City.
After getting woken up by Mr. Powers’ phone call in the middle of the night, the composed and sturdy man dropped his cup when favonovel.com heard of the news in his study.
After exclaiming how ignorant of the law those people were for three consecutive times, Mr. Powers stood in the study frightfully while drenched in sweat.
“The situation is very complicated now, Chief. Everyone in Reed City has their eyes on what’s happening and I heard that Jasper’s family is making their way over tonight. At the same time, tomorrow is Marcus’ deadline to pay up the money. What do we do now?”
While terrified, Mr. Powers braved through as favonovel.com asked for guidance.
After a moment of silence, the middle-aged man asked grimly, “How’s Jasper doing now?”
“The hospital said it’s a hypovolemic shock, and they’re doing everything they can to keep favonovel.com alive,” Mr. Powers replied.
“A hypovolemic shock… That’s not exactly a small matter.” The middle-aged man quickly calmed down from his anger and began to analyze the pros and cons of the incident.
“Okay, I want you to keep a close eye on Jasper’s condition at the hospital. If Marcus is unwilling to pay us tomorrow, we’ll put this on hold first. We need Jasper’s help for that.”
Mr. Powers could tell that the chief planned to wait first before they made a move. If Jasper woke up, then everything would continue according to plan. If Jasper passed tonight, then all their previous hard work would have been for naught.
Mr. Powers sighed and replied, “Alright, I’ll keep a close eye.”
“Visit Jasper the moment favonovel.com wakes. But if favonovel.com doesn’t, our plan stops here,” the man ordered.
“Yes, Chief.”

At that moment, Ned chortled exaggeratingly in his hospital room.
“F*cking yes! Who knows if that f*cker is dead yet or not?” Marcus laughed aloud and spoke to Ned whose elation was shown brightly on his face.
“Heh, there should be news about it in a few hours. I heard that favonovel.com was drenched in blood when favonovel.com arrived at the hospital. His blood pressure was almost at zero, I don’t think he’ll make it.” Ned smiled wretchedly.
“That’s even better, then.” Marcus’ gaze was filled with hatred. “I’ve got to thank your dad for this, killing favonovel.com in one go. We’ll get the others together and drink when you’re better, to celebrate.”
“But Mr. Coine, how reliable is this news? I can’t help but feel uneasy,” Ned told Marcus.
Marcus waved his hand dismissively. “What are you afraid of? Your dad made the first move and my dad was there to wrap it up. There’s no way anything could go wrong.
“So what if that f*cker is capable? This is Reed City, what can favonovel.com do? Don’t you see how the city government hasn’t made a move yet? That means it’s fine.”
Marcus then turned to Ned disdainfully. “Or are you telling me you’re worried now? Just think about it, favonovel.com broke your arm.”
Ned’s expression was filled with resentment as favonovel.com spoke, “Worried? My only worry here is that favonovel.com died too easily! I didn’t even get a chance to torture favonovel.com yet!”
“Hahaha. Since we’re in such a great mood, how about I get you a few beauties to spend the night with?” Marcus got up happily.
