Chapter 326
It was quite normal for someone like Jasper to have several phones. As he inserted the SIM card into one of them, the phone suddenly started ringing.
“Hello, who’s this?” Jasper answered.
Relieved to hear Jasper’s voice, Oliver went straight to the point. “Hello, I’m Oliver Quill. I’d like to talk to you about Esther Quill.”
Jasper inquired, “What’s your relationship with Esther?”
“I believe she is my older sister’s daughter,” Oliver replied with a hint of regret. If he hadn’t lost track of Esther previously, perhaps the tragedy surrounding her wouldn’t have occurred. “Mr. Quill, I’m not in the mood to discuss Esther’s matters with you at the moment. However, I can arrange for Esther’s adoptive father to speak with you about the circumstances of her adoption.”
“Thank you, Mr. Searle,” Oliver expressed his gratitude.
Not in a rush to meet Jasper, Oliver made an appointment to meet Billy at a hotel.
After ending the call with Oliver, Jasper raised an eyebrow and asked coldly, “Kevin, aren’t you going to inform Bradley about my side of the story?”
“Jasper, you…” Kevin pleaded weakly, “Just tell me if she’s alive or…”
“Kevin, are you blind? Didn’t you see her jump before me?” Jasper didn’t directly answer Kevin’s question but glared at him menacingly. “If you had an ounce of conscience, you should be mourning for Esther right now. You were ordered by Bradley to follow me, thinking that Esther and I conspired for a staged performance, correct?”
Kevin looked embarrassed as he sat weakly on the sofa, helplessly saying, “I truly had no idea that Bradley would push Esther to such an extent.”
“You had no idea? Kevin, can a simple ‘I had no idea’ erase the guilt in your conscience?” Jasper sneered mockingly. “A normal person would consider that Felix is not only Bradley’s son but also Esther’s. She lost two children in less than half a year. Who are you to think she could withstand Bradley’s confinement?
“Have you ever seen her as a real person? Do you think she’s not human? Esther repeatedly told you she had nothing to do with Mr. Thomas’ accident. Why don’t you believe her?
“Now that she has fulfilled your wish and paid for it with her life, what are you doing here pretending to be sentimental? It’s truly sickening!”
Jasper’s words rendered Kevin speechless.
“Get out! Stop being a nuisance!” Jasper glared at Kevin, utterly disappointed, and disdainfully grabbed his arm to chase him out. “Leave! Both you and Warner, never show your faces in front of me again.”
Kevin stood motionless, crying with his hands covering his face.
Meanwhile, Oliver met Billy in the presidential suite of a hotel.
“Hello.”
