However, he did not expect Jasper to appear in front of him like this and tell him such things.

“You… know I didn’t push Nelson Corbyn down the stairs?” William asked after a long while.

“Yeah, didn’t your daddy tell you? The police found out that someone shot an air gun in Nelson’s direction.

Fortunately, you pushed Nelson away. Otherwise, Nelson would have been seriously injured,” said Jasper Reed.

William looked confused. His father did not tell him this when he came back.

“William, stop being mad at me, okay? I’ll… believe you from now on. I’ll believe you no matter what happens.

Brother wants to apologize to you too. Let’s go find Brother!” said Jasper Reed.

Jasper grabbed William’s hand and ran out of the storeroom. However, when they reached the living room in the main house, there was already a row of servants and security guards standing there.

Besides them, the owners of the Barlow family-Charlie Barlow, Chelsea, and Philip Barlow-were here too.

Panic flashed across Jasper Reed’s little face as she gripped William tightly.

Chelsea frowned as she looked at the little girl standing next to her grandson. Chelsea only thought the little girl had humiliated the Barlow family when she made such a scene in the residence.

All those grown-ups could not even catch a little girl.

“Is this Jason’s daughter?” Chelsea asked unhappily.

“Yes, she’s called Jasper Reed.” Philip Barlow smiled and said to Jasper Reed, “Little girl, it’s inappropriate to break into my home like this. Didn’t your parents teach you to tell the host in advance if you want to visit them?”

“I just wanted to see William,” said Jasper Reed.

Philip Barlow said, “Now that you’ve seen him, can you let go? And where’s your brother? You must have come with your brother. Where’s your brother?”

Jasper immediately grasped William’s hand tighter. Then, she pressed her lips together tightly to show that she would not say a word Philip Barlow’s eyes glimmered. The power in his house went out twice today while the security system was breached and had not been restored until now. Then, there was such a big scene in the house. When he walked out of his room, he saw several servants on the floor that was scattered with mung beans and bills. It was eye-opening to him.

Few people would believe him if he told them the culprits of the chaos in the Barlow family this time were two children.

“William, come here,” Philip Barlow said to his son.

William hesitated but did not move because Jasper’s hand was currently gripping his.

“Daddy, why didn’t you tell me that Jasper and her family came today because they found out that I didn’t push Nelson Corbyn down the stairs and that they were here to apologize to me?” asked William as he looked at Philip Barlow.

Philip Barlow only smiled nonchalantly. “I forgot to tell you, but didn’t you find out anyway?”

It was as if it was not a big deal.

William bit his lip..

Philip Barlow said grimly, “But William, they misunderstood you so badly at the time. Do you think an apology can make up for it? Nobody seemed to believe you when you were there, right? And this Jasper beside you kept saying you pushed Nelson Corbyn down the stairs, didn’t she?

When the children of the Reed family’s servants criticized you and beat you up, what did Jasper, who wants to apologize to you now, do? She just looked on.”

Philip Barlow spoke slowly, and his smile seemed very kind. However, what he said made Jasper turn pale. Her hand that was holding William’s hand was also trembling slightly.

However, Charlie Barlow said, “That’s enough. You’re a man. Don’t criticize a little girl like that. She’s only a few years old!”

Philip Barlow smiled faintly. Even a child who was only a few years old could have a tremendous impact on his son!

“Jasper didn’t mean to misunderstand me,” said William.

“Yes, she didn’t mean it. But she cares more about Nelson than you. She would have believed you if she cared more about you. She would have believed that you didn’t push Nelson Corbyn,” Philip Barlow continued saying.

He spoke like a considerate adult, but every word of his shot straight to the children’s hearts.

Jasper listened vaguely, not understanding what he was saying. ‘What does he mean by me caring more about Nelson? I treat William and Nelson equally. I love them both!’

However, William understood. His experience had made him more precocious than ordinary children. He kept silent because he understood.

“William?” Jasper shook William’s hand somewhat nervously. Although she did not quite understand what Uncle Barlow said, she did understand one thing. It seemed Uncle Barlow did not want William to forgive her.

William remained silent.

Jasper suddenly felt scared. Would William… refuse to forgive her and accept her apology? Then… they would not be good friends anymore!

Her imagination began to run wild in her head. She instantly hugged William with a cry and burst into tears.

Her crying stunned the grown-ups in the room.

She was crying so loudly that others might think it was child abuse!

However, the child was Jason’s. Although the Reed family was in Emerald City and the Barlow family was in Deer City, which meant the two families did not have anything to do with each other, the Barlow family did not want to offend the Reed family.

Chelsea glared at her son. “Stop saying such things. Look, you frightened the child.”

Philip Barlow smiled and said nothing more.

Chelsea stepped forward and comforted Jasper Reed, saying, “Alright, stop crying. Since you’re here to apologize, William will accept your apology. Your parents are coming to pick you up, so go home with them.”

Chelsea just wanted to get rid of the little one.

She wanted to grab Jasper Reed, but little one clung to her grandson like taffy. Chelsea only wanted to separate them.

When she pulled a little harder, Jasper cried louder as if they were going to be parted by death. She shouted, “No, I don’t want to part with William. I want to be with William!”

It made Chelsea feel awkward.

Just then, the Barlow family’s servant came and reported, “Mr. Jason and Mrs. Reed from the Reed family are at the entrance.

They said they’ve come to pick up their children.”

“Hurry and let them in!” said Chelsea.

Therefore, the servant quickly left. Moments later, Jason and Grace stepped into the Barlow family’s living room and saw their daughter crying miserably.

As soon as Jasper saw her parents, she cried harder as she said, “What if William doesn’t forgive me? Does that mean I can’t be best friends with William anymore?”

“I… I never said I won’t forgive you.” William blushed slightly and wiped away the tears on Jasper Reed’s face in a fluster. He did not like to see her cry. He only wanted to see her smile.

“R-Really?” Jasper blinked her big almond-shaped eyes.

William nodded quickly.

Therefore, Jasper finally stopped crying. However, she was a little out of breath as she had been crying so hard.

Grace hurried to help her daughter steady her breathing, while Jason said to the three members of the Barlow family, “I’m sorry, Old Master Shen, Old Madam Shen, and Mr. Barlow. My children have caused you trouble.”
