Jasper waved his hand and Julian immediately turned off the deafening music in the private room. Then, he ushered the girls who were drinking with Terence out the room as well.
The rowdy private room instantly quietened.
“This is how Zayden makes you work for him?” Jasper asked with a wide smile.
Terence’s expression darkened as he asked grimly, “What do you want from me?”
“Bring me to see Zayden,” Jasper stated calmly.
Terence was stunned for a moment before he scoffed. “Are you crazy? You want me to bring you to see Zayden now?”
Jasper clasped his hands together and placed them under his chin, saying to Terence, “I’m informing you, not discussing this with you. Do you understand the situation you’re in?”
Terence huffed. “Didn’t you tell me to find out who else he’s in contact with? I’ve only been back for a few hours and you want to see him already? How am I supposed to help you do anything then?”
All Terence wanted to do now was find an excuse to escape and then immediately tell Zayden the news.
“I’m pretty sure you’ve already said all you have to and Zayden has already done all he needs to in these past few hours. It’s the perfect time for me to meet the man himself.”
After he finished speaking, Jasper no longer had the patience to waste more of his time on Terence. He gave Julian a look.
Julian walked over to Terence expressionlessly and spoke, “Would you like me to move you, or are you going to move yourself?”
Terence was terrified by the mere sight of Julian. A painful lesson had taught him that this man could kill him as though he was an ant.
“I’ll bring you two there!” Terence clenched his jaw.
Jasper stood in satisfaction, speaking as he walked, “Don’t think about trying anything. There’s a limit to my patience.”
Terence sighed at the words. Despondent, he completely gave up on the idea of leading them the wrong way.
After exiting the bar, Terence complied obediently and brought Jasper upstairs to the door of the apartment on the highest floor where Zayden lived.
