"Oh, is that so?" Jenson chuckled.
His hypnotism would only be ineffective on one type o f people, the ones who had no worldly desires and those with unyielding willpower. People like Jacob, who was blinded by greed, would never have the capability of resisting hypnotism.
"Grandpa Jacob, is Faith your daughter?" Jenson went straight to the topic.
Jacob nodded first... before ultimately shaking his head.
Jenson suddenly plucked a few strands of Jacob's hair and said, "It doesn't matter whether or not you admit it. A simple paternity test can tell me the answer."
Jacob huffed angrily as he said, "Jenson, you-"
"You and Madam Nephele started as the domineering president and gentle assistant. But the two of you must’ve been in cahoots from the beginning. After Madam Nephele gave birth to a daughter for you, she must've sincerely done everything to help you, right?"
A touch of resistance flashed across Jacob’s eyes. However, with Jenson's jade pendant dangling in front of him, he soon became dizzy and his eyes
turned dim. Even his consciousness was becoming lax and unclear.
"Since you already know everything, why bother questioning me?" Jacob spat out the words.
Jenson said, "I was merely curious about something. Grandpa Jacob, for Madam Nephele alone, you deserted your first wife and ended up getting spurned by your children. Is it all worth it?"
"What do you know? You don't know anything!" Jacob roared. "I wasn't planning on hurting Charlotte. But she became a hindrance to me...."
"A hindrance to what?" Jenson was aware that Jacob was hiding an unspeakable truth inside his heart.
