Jasper narrowed his eyes.
His and Fabian’s enmity had begun in an extremely nonsensical manner.
They became enemies without having met each other.
This was directly related to Jonathan from Coreana.
Though no matter what, he should not let his guard down since they were now enemies.
From the way Fabian had caused Kayden to suffer tremendous losses, it was clear that he had a much higher status than someone like Mitch.
Jasper had not let his guard down and had been guarding against Fabian in preparation for his next attack.
However, Jasper had too little information in hand. He simply had no idea what Fabian would do.
Right now, Mitch had delivered the news to his doorstep.
Jasper did not question the authenticity of the news because Mitch had no reason to make up fake news like this to deceive him. Besides, it would be too easy to expose this lie.
When Mitch saw how quiet Jasper was, he gritted his teeth and continued.
“Although we’re not friends, Jasper, I’m not afraid to tell you that I’m more willing to deal with you than someone like Fabian. He’s a jackal that wouldn’t hesitate to devour himself when he becomes vicious, let alone someone like me…
“He came to me but I refused to act against my own interests. Henry isn’t entirely clueless about Fabian’s reputation. You’ll know if you ask around. There are many people in Harbor City who want him dead but no one is brave enough to offend him.
“He’s too powerful and no one is confident enough to take him down with a single attack. Besides, if you can’t end him in a single try, then you’ll only find yourself in endless trouble.
“Although I have no idea how you provoked him, this has nothing to do with me. I’m only telling you this news in hopes that you’ll let this matter drop. I’ll have nothing to do with what happens to Zane and Conrad after this. I won’t interfere at all.”
Jasper narrowed his eyes at Mitch, seemingly thinking of ways to deal with him.
Mitch gritted his teeth. He disliked the feeling of helplessness from being put to trial, especially when Jasper was the judge.
However, Mitch had no other choice but to grit his teeth and endure it.
At this moment, Henry walked over after Julian was done binding up his wound.
“Leave it to me?” Henry said to Jasper.
Jasper lifted his eyebrows and nodded when he noticed that Henry was serious about it.
Since Henry insisted on doing it himself, Jasper would show due respect for his feelings and let him deal with the situation no matter what. Even if Henry released Mitch, Jasper would not interfere either.
Honestly, a prodigal son like Henry might not be as shrewd and guileful in public, but he was great at playing dirty.
Henry was seen taking out his phone, switching to the camera application. He pointed the phone’s camera lens at Mitch. After fixing the angle, he chuckled and said, “That’s enough. I want you to repeat what you just said.
“F*ck, Julian, hold this for me. My arm hurts so bad. This darn Zane. Motherf*cker, I’ll kill him this time!”
A smile hung at the corners of Julian’s mouth at the sight of Henry’s behavior. He walked over and held the phone, pointing it at Mitch.
Although the camera function of mobile phones was still terrible in this age and its visual impact was poor, it was not difficult to make out a person’s face.
