“Alright then. Go quickly, this is very important,” Jasper told him sternly.
Julian nodded and left immediately.
After Julian left, Vita then looked at Jasper hopefully and said, “So the issue is resolved, then?”
“It won’t be that simple,” Jasper shook his head.
“Your franticness blinds you. Prince definitely has direct evidence of you and that child’s contact, meaning he has information that proves that the two of you are related.”
“All I can do now is guarantee her brother’s family and the child’s safety. You’re still at risk.”
Vita suddenly understood what was going on. “Then what should I do?”
Jasper paced in the study for a moment before he replied, “There’s only one way to handle this situation now, and that’s to drag it on.”
“Prince’s final target is me, after all, not you. So just agree to everything he asks.”
Vita was stunned by Jasper’s words and asked, “But what about you?”
“All I said was agree to his requests. The point of all of this is to buy time, I never said anything about carrying out what he asked.”
“He wants to bring up the termination of my partnership with the branch, but you need time to talk to people and convince them, right?
“If you’re going to follow his requests and give him my account data, that’s also going to take time, no?”
“If we have time, then I’ll be able to create a new copy of data for you to hand over to him. The moment he brings up termination of my contract with the bank is when I will truly face off against him.”
“By then, all that will matter is who wins between him and me. What happens to you won’t matter anymore.”
“If I win, then all is well. If he wins, then we’re both in trouble.”
Vita nodded bitterly when he heard Jasper and replied, “Indeed.”
