“You have to take revenge!”
Wendy’s usually gentle and calm gaze was now laced with never-before-seen hatred and anger.
Jasper was just about to speak when he heard Wendy continue, “You can’t stay here anymore. It’s too
dangerous.”
Jasper smiled bitterly. “I was careless. It won’t happen again, I promise… By the way, what time is it
now?”
Indeed, Jasper had successfully distracted Wendy and changed the subject. “You’ve been asleep for
more than a day already.”
Jasper rubbed his temples. “That’s not too bad… Where’s Jul?”
“He’s been kneeling at the door for more than a day.”
Wendy sighed.
“He said he had to apologize.”
Jasper arched his brow. “That idiot. This has nothing to do with him at all. Call him in.”
Wendy spoke exasperatedly, “You think I haven’t tried to? He just won’t get up.”
“Tell him I’m awake and I asked him to come in,” Jasper spoke calmly and patted Wendy’s hand.
He knew that kneeling was Julian’s idea, but it did not mean Wendy did not have any intention to vent
her anger on him. After all, Wendy did not know what had happened then, and considering Julian’s
personality, he would surely put the blame on himself when he tried to explain things.
As such, it was absolutely understandable that Wendy was angry at Julian when all she knew was that
Jasper had gotten injured.
Wendy nodded and got up to ask Julian to enter.
Even Julian would feel the effects of kneeling for an entire day despite his physique, and he was
slightly limping when he walked.
“Take a seat.” Jasper pointed at the empty spot.
Julian was about to say something but Jasper glared at him. “Are you refusing to listen to me now?”
Julian then sat on the chair.
“It’s not your fault I got hurt. I would’ve definitely been safe if I hadn’t reached out for Chad then, but
Chad would most certainly be dead now if that were the case.
“He’s the new director of the Human Resources Department in JW Capital. He’s a very important
character, so I can’t just let him get hurt.”
“But it’s fine if you get hurt?” Wendy piped up unhappily.
Jasper smiled. “I didn’t think much at that time, but I admit that it was rash of me. What happened this
time was an accident. None of us knew what was going to happen. Plus, I couldn’t just watch as Chad
died after getting attacked by a machete-wielding man right before my eyes, could I?
“So Jul, none of what has happened is your fault. If anything, you saved me. I wouldn’t be lying here
right now if not for you.”
Julian replied stubbornly, “But I exist to protect you, Jasper. You getting hurt is my fault.”
“I’ve never seen you so stubborn before. Are you telling me you’re going to step in when Wendy and I
fight next time?” Jasper smiled.
Julian flushed instantly and was too embarrassed to speak.
“Don’t worry about it. No one blames you for what happened this time. In fact, I need to thank you for
saving my life.”
Julian quickly spoke, “Jasper, don’t say that…”
Before Julian could finish talking, someone opened the door to the hospital ward.
Chad stood outside the ward with bandages wrapped over his arm. Beside him was a middle-aged
woman with red eyes.
“You’re awake, Mr. Laine!” Chad exclaimed as he entered the room and walked over to Jasper’s bed
excitedly.
