Chapter: 115
Jasper appeared, wearing a suit jacket. He pulled off his sunglasses, revealing his cold piercing eyes. He walked over to the young man and patted his face. “Don’t talk nonsense, kid. You don’t have any evidence. Use the facts. Check the surveillance footage.”
Ariana heard this and her heart sank. If Jasper mentioned the footage so openly, it must have been tampered with.
The incident had happened so quickly that no one was sure whether Betty had chosen to block the attack or Brielle had pushed her. Even the reporters at the scene could have easily been bribed by Jasper. That was why they could be so arrogant.
The young man was so angry that his eyes turned red. But he couldn't retort Jasper. He looked at his mother who was crying beside him, and then looked at Brielle who was full of complacency. He said stubbornly, “I’m going to sue you!”
Brielle burst into laughter. This kid didn’t bother her at all. To her, he was just a desperate loser “Go ahead. I'll help you pay the fees if you can’t afford to sue. Take it as a thank you for your sister's kindness.”
He glared at Brielle, seething with anger. He would have rushed up to Brielle and beaten her if it hadn’t been for the security guards.
Looking a little inpatient now, Jasper patted the boy on the shoulder, in a gesture of mock comfort. “All right. You want money right? I'll give you some. But remember to stop talking about all this nonsense; otherwise, the situation will be different. You could be sent to jail for malicious slander and blackmail.”
Jasper said this with a smile, before taking out a stack of cash from his bag and throwing it at the boy’s feet. “Go home. Stop making a fool of yourself.”
He then gestured for the security guards to take the family out.
When the couple saw the money, they both reached down to pick it up. “Mom, Dad, we can’t take this money,” their son protested.
“If we go to court, we'll need this. We spent all our savings on your sister’s treatment. She needs follow-ups which will also be expensive,” Betty’s mother explained, her eyes filling with tears.
The boy lowered his head, and with gritted teeth bent down and picked up the money. The three of them were then promptly escorted out of the building.
Watching them leave, Ariana had a thought. She put on a mask and chased after them. She spotted them at a bus stop and approached them. @
“Who are you?” The young boy had his guard up.
Ariana showed him her ID and responded, “I’m an employee of SJ Entertainment.”
The youth still looked hostile. He stared coldly at her and queried, “And what do you want?” The old couple also became vigilant. They pulled the boy behind them and faced Ariana like mother hens facing a hawk.
Ariana held out a pen and a piece of paper to them and said, “You forgot to fill in your information in the visitors register. Please do that.”
The three didn’t move a muscle. They just stared at her defiantly. Seeing this, Ariana put on a pitiful expression and continued, “I don’t mean to disturb or delay you, but you have to fill this. It's the company rule that everyone who comes into the building must drop their information. I’m just a contract employee, so I’m still on probation. If | make any mistake, I'll be scolded and my salary would be deducted. The higher-ups would also refuse to make me a regular employee. | went through a lot before getting this job. Please don’t be the reason why | encounter difficulties here.” @
It was almost as if Ariana would cry any moment from now. The old couple exchanged glances without saying anything. Meanwhile, the young boy's eyes softened. He stood out, took over the writing materials, and began to write.
Ariana breathed a sigh of relief. She thought that he was a kind-hearted kid.
