William sneered at the sight of Jasper’s stormy expression. “What, are you still pretending not to know anything at al?
“Stop acting already, there’s no way you wouldn’t know about Celine being under review. Are you telling me that you haven’t realized any abnormalities at all? Or did Celine just not tell you anything?”
Scoffing, William stared at Jasper coldly. He acted as if he had just caught a thief red-handed and was looking down at Jasper with disdain.
“If you had the guts to collude with Celine from the outside, then why don’t you have the guts to admit it?
“Though I have to say, I’m impressed. I’d like to know how you managed to get Celine to be so loyal to you. She values her career more than she values her life, and yet, she’s willing to put her entire career on the line for you.
“What a shame, it’s over for her now.”
With that, William sneered at Jasper disdainfully and spoke, “Congratulations to you though, now you’re successful and famous. All the benefits go to you, and you don’t even need to take responsibility for anything.”
Jasper remained calm as he listened to William speak, his mind filling with memories of Celine’s unusual behavior as of late.
While Celine had maintained her shy and peculiar personality as always in front of him, Jasper had long felt that something was off.
Jasper did not think too much back then, for he believed what Celine had told him about her being busy helping Sena go public.
However, now that he heard William’s words, this, coupled with Celine’s unusual behavior, caused a clear idea to appear in Jasper’s mind.
“I need to see Colossal Investment’s President, Mr. Paulson, right now,” Jasper told the Vice President.
