“Let’s ignore whether I’ll get anything out of this or not. Do you know that arson leading to huge
property loss and injuries is a severe crime? Do you know that you’ll get at least ten years in prison?”
Terence’s expression changed drastically at Jasper’s words, and he replied guiltily, “I don’t know what
you’re talking about! You’re telling me you brought me here so I could listen to you talk about the law?”
“The fire you set made me lose 100 million Somer Dollars. More than a dozen workers are severely
injured and there are still a few workers in the emergency room as we speak. Do you think by denying
you know anything regarding this matter will get you exempted from legal consequences?” Jasper
looked at Terence and asked.
Terence’s heart thumped frantically, and his expression turned fierce as he spoke, “I don’t know what
kind of nonsense you’re talking about here! What the f*ck does your construction site catching fire have
to do with me? Don’t think that being rich gives you the right to slander me however you want!”
“Sigh…”
Darrel sighed and looked at Terence disappointedly. “Stop struggling, Terence. Jasper already knows
everything. Be more sincere and I’ll ask him to let you go. I won’t be able to help you even if I want to if
you’re going to continue being so stubborn.”
Terence was enraged. “Darrel Laine! How dare you help an outsider instead of your own brother? What
are you saying here?!”
Darrel replied hopelessly, “I overheard your call last night. I know that you were the one who lit that fire.
Did you think you left no leads behind? Jasper has had his eyes on you a long time ago, so will you
stop being so stubborn for once?”
Terence was stricken by the words, and he looked at Jasper in disbelief. Deep fear tinted his eyes.
“I… I don’t know what you’re talking about!”
Even until the end, Terence remained unwilling to speak.
He was well aware that should he admit to setting the fire, there would be terrifying consequences
coming for him.
He wanted to join forces with Zayden, but that did not mean he was willing to go to prison for it.
“I can choose not to hold you accountable, but you have to tell me who’s the one ordering you around,”
Jasper said.
Terence had a painfully conflicted expression on his face, but he still did not reply.
Jasper furrowed his brows. The problem would be much more difficult to solve if Terence decided to
remain quiet.
Since the plan was not to alert the opponent, it would be inappropriate to turn Terence in to the police.
Doing so would only force the mastermind Jasper was looking for to hide even deeper away.
“Let me talk to him alone, Jasper,” Darrel suddenly spoke.
Jasper made a noncommittal sound and stood to exit the room with Julian in tow.
When they were outside, Julian turned to Jasper. “I know a few tricks that could cause immense pain,
Jasper. People like Terence have a pretty weak will.”
Jasper laughed. “Let’s wait a little longer first. Best case scenario, Darrel manages to persuade him to
talk. If that doesn’t work, then we’ll resort to your methods.”
Jasper did not have the intention to eavesdrop on the brothers’ conversation, but loud shouts and
scoldings came continuously from the study.
It continued for another 20 minutes or so before the door to the study opened again.
Darrel, who looked exhausted, walked out and turned to Jasper. “He’s willing to talk now.”
Upon returning to the study, Jasper saw that Terence now seemed soulless as he stared at him with
profound resentment.
“I don’t know what you drugged my brother with that he’s so loyal to you, Jasper, but don’t you forget
that I will never respect you!”
Jasper replied calmly, “I don’t need your respect. I need a name.”
“Zayden Hanks!”
