George felt as if his organs had shifted out of place. His stomach was churning, and he felt horrible.
He tried hard to get up but his entire body was limp and powerless. He lifted his head with all his might
but could only see Jasper’s leather shoes.
Jasper took a step forward and squatted. He bent over to look at George, patting his face.
“You had a lot of fun calling me little idiot, huh?”
George gritted his teeth tightly, but at this moment, even if he was resolute, he did not dare to speak
anymore.
“You kept saying that the stakes are high in Swallow Capital. Were you having fun acting like a poser?”
George was gasping for air while enduring the pain in his chest and stomach. He opened his mouth
challengingly and said, “Just kill me or hack me into pieces if you dare!”
“How stubborn.”
Jasper smiled, and his eyes went cold instantly.
“You’re just a thug of the lowest level in Swallow Capital’s society, so why are you acting like a keelie in
front of me?”
A keelie was a dialect and slang in Swallow Capital, meaning an old fox or a person unfit for society.
Jasper lifted his hand to grab George’s cheek and forced his head up to look into his eyes. Jasper said
insipidly, “Yes, the stakes are high in Swallow Capital, but it has nothing to do with people like you.
Don’t think that just because you’ve been in Swallow Capital for a few years that you’re a big shot
here.”
George was shaking all over. He did not know whether he was trembling because of anger or pain.
He felt that Jasper’s statement had crushed his dignity into pieces before slamming them on the floor to
get stomped on.
George wanted so badly to have a dagger in his hand so that he could kill Jasper for making him feel
this way.
“Mr. Laine, let me remove one of his arms.”
Julian had been pissed with George’s arrogance for a very long time. When he saw that he was still
looking at Jasper sinisterly with hatred on his face, he could not help but propose.
In Julian’s heart, Jasper was his savior—someone he respected the most in his world. He would not
allow anyone to insult Jasper.
He owed his life to Jasper, and he was not just saying that.
If they were in a life and death situation one day, he would be willing to take a bullet for Jasper.
When George heard this, the scenes of Julian fighting his five fighters until they were battered and
bruised as if he was the God of War flashed across his brain. Then, he saw Julian walking over to him
with eyes that were so icy they looked like they could kill.
George was petrified.
He had been in jail before and knew that some people really had the guts to kill.
Plus, now Julian was saying that he would cripple one of George’s arms.
George did not doubt that if Jasper nodded, Julian would really do it.
His intense fear washed away all of his hatred. His eyes were now filled with terror as they shook.
“No, no! I was wrong! I was so wrong!”
George completely became a coward.
“Sir, my good sir, please don’t let him cripple me. There are security cameras all around the place. A
big shot like you shouldn’t have to get into trouble with the law because of a minor character like me,
right?”
When George saw Jasper’s calm and unchanged expression on his face, he quickly yelled at Jim, “Mr.
Yapp, please stop him. Don’t make this into something big!”
Jim wanted so badly to spit on George’s face right now. He had seen a lot of shameless people before
but he had never seen anyone as shameless as George.
However, George was right. If Julian really did something to George, then Jasper would get into trouble
because they were not at the feet of the emperor.
