Henry’s analysis made sense.
Yet, Jasper could not help but feel like there was more to this incident.
In all honesty, from what he came to understand, the Royal family was an extremely powerful presence in Waterhoof City, or even the entire mainland.
If people like Norman could gain the Royal family’s support, then he would have made a huge name for himself long ago.
However, he had only come to seek the Royal family for help once he was on the edge of life and death.
Either Norman and the Royal family had history and this was a favor the latter owed the man, or there was a more to this situation that outsiders did not know about
Still, Jasper could not help but feel like he would meet the Royal family sooner or later.
“The most important thing is that I’ve never planned to let Norman and Lisa go,” Jasper said calmly.
Royal family or not, Jasper would weed out and completely destroy the father-daughter duo.
He could not opt to give up and run just because some so-called Royal family appeared out of nowhere.
Jasper might as well sell his company and go back to farming if that was the case.
“If you really need it, I could help you get you a meeting with someone from the Royal family.” Henry suggested.
Jasper shook his head and rejected him.
“No. You can’t be involved in this, because that means the Law family will be dragged into it. The situation will only become difficult to control if that were to happen.”
“Let’s wait and see. If this Royal family wants to protect Norman, then they’re going to have to contact me.”
Henry shrugged and replied, “You decide then. I’m going back to play my game, but remember to ask if you need my help.”
“The Royal family might be powerful, but that doesn’t mean they can do whatever they want. Keep yapping bullsh*t and I will still slap them across the face.”
Jasper’s premonition was right, as a middle-aged man came looking for Jasper at noon.
