Standing next to Jasper, Julian stared at White Glove’s back and said, “I can make him stay if you want, Jasper.”
Jasper waved him off and replied, “No need. He’s just Vere’s subordinate, and getting rid of him won’t change anything. Vere Chavez is our main concern.”
Julian did not say anything anymore when he heard this. Julian knew nothing when it came to power and planning, but he did not fear anyone when it came to physical fights.
The only person who ever posed a threat to him was the man beside the little prince. White Glove was skilled, but Julian would not lose against him.
After White Glove left, Timothy walked over to Jasper and Henry before bowing deeply to the two.
“I’m really sorry, Mr. Laine, Mr. Law. It was all a misunderstanding before and I was blinded by my hatred. Thank you two for discovering the truth behind my son’s death, otherwise the true culprit would’ve gotten away with it.”
Jasper clapped Timothy’s shoulder and said softly, “Nothing is too far when a father is taking revenge for his son. Since it was a misunderstanding, all that matters now is that the misunderstanding’s cleared up. There’s no need to feel guilty about it anymore.”
Jasper then glanced at Henry and said, “How about you two shake hands? Fatherly love is something we all have to understand.”
Henry was not an unreasonable man and said tensely, “It’s fine. You lost more than I did in this incident, so I won’t hold this over your head either.”
Timothy smiled wryly and replied, “Thank you two for your generosity.”
“Mr. Burke, both of us are well aware of the truth here. While Prince was involved in your son’s death, it was still an accident.”
“Prince is in the wrong, but their family’s power and the circumstances of the case means that he won’t be in too much trouble. He might be out after some time, so what do you have planned?”
