“Jasper, don’t act rashly,” Jim said softly.
Jasper chuckled lightly. He had not planned to do anything to George from the start.
The difference between an adult and a child was that one of them knew how to weigh the pros and cons. They would not be blinded by momentary emotions.
If he crippled George, he would feel great. However, what was going to happen next?
He would not be able to escape the consequences of his crimes.
It would be such a tremendous loss if he caused Julian to get convicted because of a minor character like George.
However, Jasper did not mind scaring him a little.
“Tell me, who’s that Mr. Combe who’s behind your back?” Jasper asked coldly.
George did not dare to hide anymore. He spilled everything as if he was spilling a bag of beans.
“Mr. Combe is the second son of the Combe family. He just came back from studying overseas. Since most of the big shots from the Combe family are involved in public relations and Mr. Combe has a celebrity girlfriend, he plans to get into the media industry.
“Mr. Combe contacted me through someone and asked me to look for a media company for him. Coincidentally, I was watching Jim during that time and knew he was looking for a media company too. As such, I contacted Easy Media following his clues. In the end, Mr. Combe was satisfied and that’s how this happened.”
Jasper’s eyes looked cold. He stood up and said to Jim, “Uncle Yapp, I think this is more complicated than we thought.”
Jim looked coldly at George who was on the floor and said, “I didn’t think that everything started because this b*stard was coming between us. I was wondering why it was such a coincidence that Mr. Combe got the news the moment I contacted Easy Media.”
Jasper peered at George who was lying on the ground and did not make a peep. He said flatly, “Get lost.”
After George heard that, it was as if he had received the greatest pardon in the world. He scrambled to get up from the floor before limping away.
