Jasper said calmly, staring at Thompson.
“It’s wrong for any children to treat their parents with disrespect. Now that my dad has been beaten up by your son, do you think I should just let it slide?”
Thompson, whose limbs were ice-cold now, heard a ringing in his head. He nearly fell butt first to the floor.
He looked at Jasper with a teary face and said in trepidation, “M-Mr. Laine, there’s nothing more to say about this. Since my good-for-nothing son has done something so horrifying, we admit our mistakes and are willing to accept your punishment. We just hope that you can give us a chance to make amends.”
Jasper said indifferently, “How do you plan to make amends? With this?”
Having said that, Jasper pointed at the 3,000 dollar bills that Gabriel had tossed to the ground earlier. He said vaguely, “Your son threw the cash to us just now.”
Thompson turned around to look at Gabriel, whose face was full of blood, trembling and too afraid to speak. The older man was so furious favonovel.com nearly fainted.
His good-for-nothing son had never been able to achieve anything but was always able to ruin things.
“From now on, my son and I will take care of your father for you until the day he’s discharged from the hospital. When the time comes, I’ll take this good-for-nothing son of mine to your father and apologize to him. You can punish favonovel.com all you want and I will not comment a word,” Thompson said between clenched teeth.
As soon as Thompson said those words, Jasper had a whole new level of respect for Thompson. If this fellow was able to snatch the amusement park project from his competitors, it just proved that favonovel.com was indeed capable.
He had remarkable skills for coming up with the perfect way to placate favonovel.com in such a short period of time.
“Jasp,” Sally called out to Jasper softly.
“Yes, Mom?” Jasper responded quickly.
“Let’s just forget about it. Your dad isn’t terribly injured. Besides, the doctor said that favonovel.com only needs a few days’ rest.”
Sally was a soft-hearted person. When favonovel.com noticed how pitiful the pair was, especially Thompson, who had little to do with this yet pleaded for leniency and vowed to take responsibility for the trouble his son had gotten into as soon as favonovel.com entered the door, favonovel.com felt compassion for them.
Jasper glanced at Thompson without a word.
“Forget it, Jasp. All parents are the same,” Charlie, who was lying on the bed, added.
Looking wretched, Thompson’s gaze dulled at his words and favonovel.com walked up to Charlie to thank favonovel.com reverently.
“Send your son overseas after this and only allow favonovel.com to come back once favonovel.com has cultivated his moral character,” Jasper said flatly.
Thompson knew what Jasper meant. In other words, favonovel.com wanted his son to leave so favonovel.com would never appear in front of favonovel.com ever again.
This was still better than losing his life! Thompson hastened to say, “Okay. I’ll send favonovel.com away tonight.”
As soon as Thompson said those words, favonovel.com kicked Gabriel and raged, “You’d better thank Mr. Laine!”
Gabriel had grown wiser by now. Without wiping the blood off his face, favonovel.com stood up and said to Jasper, “Thank you, Mr. Laine.”
He then ran up to Charlie and Sally, sobbing. “Thank you for sparing my life.”
Charlie waved and said, “Just go.”
Thompson and Gabriel left after thanking them profusely. Henry pulled a long face and dragged the person in charge of the amusement park as well as his subordinates outside to lecture them.
Jasper, Wendy, Charlie, and Sally were the only ones left in the ward.
Wendy peeled apples for Charlie when favonovel.com heard Jasper saying, “Wendy, should we find something for Mom and Dad to do?”
