Chapter 142 The Ture Color of Jasper Jasper strolled up to Allison, noticing her wide-eyed stare and the faint smile on his lips. "Surprised to see me?" Allison's mouth was taped shut, so she just watched him quietly.
Remembering bits and pieces about Jasper, she suddenly smiled.
Jasper's face turned cold when he saw her smile. He reached out and ripped the tape off her mouth, causing a sharp pain, but Allison didn't even flinch. "You're such a pervert!" Allison snapped.
"And you're clever, pretending all these years! Allison, you've been a fake from the start. You acted all shy and timid as a kid, but you were a wolf in sheep's clothing. The Bennett family raised you, and it wasn't for nothing!" Jasper said, his words dripping with sarcasm.
Allison stayed calm. "So, Jasper, you also know that the Bennett family raising you was the real mistake. They've been cleaning up your messes since you were a kid. You've squandered most of Grandpa's fortune, yet you still act like the world owes you something. Why?" Jasper laughed maniacally, a side of him Allison had never seen before crazy, obsessive.
"They do owe me. My parents were killed by Preston, so the Bennett family owes me. Even if I bring down the Bennett family, they deserve it!" Jasper declared.

"Seriously? Jasper, you really are a plague on the Bennett family! Untie me, you know I won't run," Allison said. Jasper looked at Allison, smiled, and untied her.
Allison sat down on a chair and spoke directly, "Just tellwhat you want. There's no need for all this ." "I want the Bishop family's fortune. It rightfully belongs to me!" Jasper said arrogantly.
Allison dusted off her legs and looked at Jasper. "Jasper, have you ever wondered why Grandma didn't let you inherit everything from the Bishop family?" "Of course, it's because you tricked her!" Jasper declared.
Allison couldn't help but laugh.
Soon, her face turned serious as she looked at Jasper.
"Grandma gave you three chances. When you were five, she wanted you to live at Serenity Manor so she could teach you personally, but you refused! You thought Serenity Manor was too shabby and said Grandma living there made her look like a beggar." Jasper's expression changed slightly. "I was only five years old. What could I have known?" Jasper retorted indifferently.
Allison coldly stared at him. "When you were ten, Grandma gave you a second chance. She was willing to hand over the Bishop family's assets to you, on the condition that you take the Bishop name. But you refused again, breaking her heart." "Change my name? Why should I be a Bishop? I'm a Bennett!" Jasper said righteously. Allison took a deep breath, completely losing any fondness for Jasper.
"Don't you know your biological father was a Bishop? Grandpa married into the Bishop family. Your luxury and comfort cfrom the Bishop family, but you look down on them, thinking they only have a few shabby houses compared to the grandeur of the Bennett Manor! Jasper, sthings are innate, like a sense of duty!" Allison scolded.
Allison's words hit a nerve with Jasper, her tone eerily similar to Valencia's.
"So, the third chance was when I was fifteen?" Jasper asked.
Allison nodded. "Grandma was already really sick. She wanted to give you everything from the Bishop family, but you didn't care. You even yelled at her, 'Why don't you just die?' Jasper, you bastard!" In a fit of rage, Jasper slapped Allison. "Allison, you're the thief, yet you cto judge me. Who do you think you are? Today, you must transfer all the Bishop family's assets to me, or you'll never leave here alive!" Allison sneered, unafraid of Jasper's threats, and coldly stared at him. "Jasper, you're not the mastermind. Bring out your boss!" Allison's words caught Jasper off guard; he hadn't expected her to be so perceptive.
Allison was curious about who was pulling Jasper's strings. During her last trip to Aivalia, she had sensed something off about his behavior.
Soon, a man Allison had never seen before stood before her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Gaia, we finally meet!" the man said.
Allison raised an eyebrow, looking puzzled. "Gaia? You must be mistaken. I'm Allison from Novaria!" Allison wouldn't admit her true identity. The man wasn't angry, still smiling at her.

"I refuse. Whatever you wantto do, I refuse!" Allison declared.
Jasper shouted from the side, "Allison, don't be ungrateful. It's an honor to be sought out by him. Do you know who he is?" Allison looked at Jasper, puzzled by his eagerness to please.
"If I'm not mistaken, you must be Cameron's older brother, the former heir of the Simmons family, the one who was expelled by Cameron, right?" Allison guessed. The man's face changed instantly. He reached out and choked her. "Don't mention that bastard in front of me!"
"You are Wayne Simmons, the eldest son of the former head of the Simmons family. Your family values bloodline so much that even so though Cameron defeated you, he still couldn't gain the family's approval! I don't care about your family's issues. I can guess what you wantto do, Mr. Simmons. My hands are meant to save lives, not take them!" Allison said seriously. Wayne silently stared at Allison and suddenly understood why Cameron had fallen for her.
"Vastwave Ocean, submarine, launch device decryption. Nyour price to decrypt it," Wayne said.
Allison thought Wayne must be crazy to ask her to decrypt a missile. What was he thinking? "Mr. Simmons, I can't do it!" Allison refused directly.
Wayne, however, was unfazed by her response. "Gaia, you're the only m person in the world who can crack the code. Just nyour price!"
