The other person was cursing and complaining, but their words were like invisible needles constantly pricking at his nerves.
Love troubles?!
Him? How could that be possible?!
How could he be troubled by love? He had long lost any feelings for Jasper!
“Shut up!” Roger shouted in anger. “Get out of here, or don’t blame me for laying a hand on a woman!”
The woman was startled by the cold voice and the sinister expression, and a chill ran down her spine.
“Who do you think you are? Let me tell you, I’m not someone to mess with…”
Although the woman was speaking these words, she kept backing away and quickly ran off.
Roger slowly lifted his feet and walked to the side, sitting down on the edge of the steps by the road.
He then scratched his hair in a somewhat dejected manner.
What happened to him?
He set up a trap and forced William and Jasper into it.
He set up a trap and forced William and Jasper into it.
In fact, all he wanted to see was Jasper abandoning William when he was in trouble.
Just like back then, when the Abbott family was in chaos because of his mother’s gambling, the Reed family also abandoned them, and Jasper broke off their friendship at that time.
He wanted to see William end up like him.
He wanted to prove that Jasper was a person who only cared about himself.
Perhaps only by doing so can he strengthen his desire for revenge and make him feel that seeking revenge on her is not wrong!
But unfortunately, things didn’t develop as he had hoped.
She didn’t abandon William! She chose to stand by his side and fight with him.
Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict!
“Then why… did she abandon me back then?” Roger murmured, “Is it just because William is the heir of the Barlow family, and I am nothing? Jasper, tell me, why…”
At this moment, the quiet street remained silent, with no one to answer his question.
Roger hugged his knees with both hands and buried his face in them, like a discarded child sitting alone on the steps. It seemed as if he was the only one left in the world at this moment.
After a while, footsteps suddenly approached, not just one set, but several.
Finally, the footsteps stopped in front of Roger.
“Leston, it’s him. He told me to get lost earlier!” said the woman who had talked to Roger before.
“Don’t be afraid, in a moment, I’ll make him kneel down for you!” The other person comforted the woman, then shouted at Roger, “I advise you not to play dead. If you can kneel down for my sister now and make her happy, I might spare you.”
However, Roger still maintained his previous posture and didn’t move, as if he hadn’t heard the other person’s words at all.
The man named Leston couldn’t bear to lose face and shouted loudly, “Hey, did you hear me? If you keep playing dead, don’t blame me for being impolite!”
Roger didn’t look up, and lazily spat out a word, “Get lost!”
Leston and the people around him were obviously angry, and the woman said, “Leston, this guy is too annoying, you must teach him a lesson!”
“Okay, okay, I’ll make sure this guy remembers his lesson!” Leston said, grabbing a stick and swinging it towards Roger.
But before the stick could touch Roger, he caught it with one hand and looked at Leston expressionlessly. “I told you to leave.”
The cold look in Roger’s eyes and the hostility emanating from him made Leston suddenly feel uneasy.
“Who do you think you are?” Leston said, trying to retrieve his stick, but Roger’s grip was too strong.
Leston’s face turned red and he turned to his men. “What are you waiting for? Beat this guy up!”
Upon hearing this, the henchmen rushed forward to attack Roger.
Roger quickly grabbed the stick from Leston’s hand with force.
This was followed by a nearly one-sided brawl.
Wherever Roger’s stick landed, someone fell down.
In the silent night, there were continuous cries of pain.
Leston was beaten so badly that blood was flowing from his head and his arm hanging by his side was broken. It’s unclear how many of his ribs were also broken.
At this moment, Leston deeply regrets coming here and getting involved with the crazy character in front of him.
Yes, this person is a lunatic!
Leston fled in a hurry with his few henchmen, without even caring about the woman who had called them for backup in the first place.
The woman initially wanted to run with Leston and the others, but her high heels made her lose her balance and she fell hard to the ground.
Panicked, the woman looked back at Roger who was closing in on her and pleaded with a pale face,
“Don’t… don’t come any closer. I… I was wrong. Please spare me, spare me!”
Roger replied coldly, “You talk too much. If I spare you, then who will spare me?”
The woman stuttered, “I… I…” As she saw Roger raise the stick in his hand, she instinctively covered her head with both hands and curled up.
But with a loud “thud,” the stick hit the ground next to the woman instead.
Roger looked down at the woman curled up on the ground, threw his stick on the floor, and turned to leave
Even if he took her life, nothing would change.
Jasper chose William, and to her, he was just a nobody. That’s why she was able to abandon him so quickly.
“It’s time to pay back…” Roger muttered.
He came to Stanford University for revenge, to get close to Jasper. He shouldn’t hesitate anymore, he shouldn’t have any softness because of Jasper.
Because she…is simply not worth it!
…The news of Jasper and William’s relationship has become the most explosive gossip at Stanford
University, especially with all the negative news surrounding William lately. It takes a lot of courage for
Jasper to face so many cameras and admit to their relationship at this time.
Of course, many people think that Jasper is just a love-struck fool who doesn’t care about the consequences of her words, and may have dragged down the entire Reed family.
This matter has also begun to ferment online. Although the Reed family and the Barlow family are suppressing the news, with the development of the internet, many related posts can still be found with a simple search.
However, Jasper doesn’t care about other people’s opinions at all. Since she has already made it clear how much William means to her and that she loves him, she will stick to her decision no matter what.
However, Jasper completely ignores other people’s opinions. Since she is clear about William’s importance in her heart and knows that she loves him, she will persist until the end.
“By the way, um… your grandfather is currently hospitalized. Are you planning to visit him?” Due to public opinion, William took a few days off and didn’t go to school, instead staying at the Barlow family’s villa in Emerald City. Jasper also took time off to stay with William at the villa.
Jasper saw some information online and learned that Harold had a heart attack and was hospitalized.
Camelia stayed with him at the hospital all the time.
Just two elderly people with little money, now relying on donations from some netizens for their medical treatment.
“Would you think I’m heartless if I said I don’t want to go see him?” William asked.
She blinked her eyes and said, “Why should I think you’re heartless? They never did anything for you, never even raised you for a day. It’s understandable if you don’t go see them.”
William smiled at her words, feeling relieved. “But many people online are saying I’m heartless for not visiting them while they’re in the hospital.”
“Just because you’re related by blood?” Jasper asked. “But sometimes blood ties can be the strongest bond in the world, and other times they can be fragile and easily broken. I think blood ties need to be nurtured with love to have any real meaning. Otherwise, they’re nothing.”
William stared at the person in front of him, realizing that she understood him.
She understood his feelings towards blood ties and family.
Just like when he returned to the Barlow family, he didn’t feel any sense of familial connection. He only went back because he wanted to be worthy of her in the future.
But through the little things in the Barlow family, his father’s care, his grandparents’ love, he began to feel a sense of family.
He finally slowly integrated into the Barlow family!
All of this was built up through daily interactions, not just relying on the concept of blood ties!
“William, no matter what decision you make, I’ll stand by your side!” Jasper said to William. “This time,
I’ll face it with you!”
His eyes welled up with tears, and he hugged her tightly. “Okay, I’ll handle this matter well! Trust me!”
“I trust you!” She had always believed in him since childhood.
In the evening, William and Jasper went to the Reed family’s place. At this time, Mick had been working with some computer experts to find the whereabouts of the person who posted on the school forum.
Although they found the poster, the person was overseas and William had never met them before.
They had no connection to the Barlow family.
“The person on the other side of the foreign country has been found, but upon questioning, he only took money to do the job. The full text of the post was directly printed out by the other party and stuffed under his door, while the money was given through anonymous transfer, making it difficult to trace where the money came from,” Jason called William into the study and told him the result.
William pondered, it seemed that the other party in the dark was very cautious, and even knew that they would investigate.
“However, there is something different that we found about your grandparents,” Jason said.
William’s heart skipped a beat, “What is it?”
“Your grandparents have always been in Deer Capital. The reason they appeared in Emerald City is because someone told them that you were studying at Stanford University and also told them that you were in a difficult situation there because of your mother’s past,” Jason said.
