Chapter 595 He Admitted Defeat
"Sorry," Francis said, genuinely feeling bad. He knew it was his fault. If he hadn't messed up, Harper wouldn't be in this mess.
Francis was so mad at himself, he almost wanted Jasper to punch him.
Victor, who was standing nearby, chimed in, "Mr. Murphy, this is on me. I was the one who asked Ms. Murphy to come see Mr. Getty."
Victor felt terrible. If it wasn't for him, Harper wouldn't have been stuck in the office. He'd been careless, calling her over and not making sure she left.
He knew he screwed up big time. Even if Francis sent him to some far-off place for ten years, he'd take it.
Jasper knew that Harper had called Victor, which prompted Victor to suggest that Harper check on Francis.
Jasper knew Harper would have come anyway, even without Victor's suggestion.
Harper needed an excuse, and Victor just happened to give her one.
Jasper was fair. He blamed the right people, not the wrong ones.
He told Victor, "I don't blame you. Harper wanted to come on her own."
Francis went pale.
Jasper looked at Francis and said, "Harper isn't someone who changes her mind easily. If she came to see you, it means she still cares."
Jasper paused, then added, "Francis, I don't believe you don't understand her feelings."
"So..." Jasper didn't hold back, "You should take this time to stay away from her. Think things through before you act."
Honestly, Jasper was really disappointed in Francis. He thought Francis could protect Harper, but this was a huge mistake.
Just as Jasper was about to leave, Francis grabbed his arm, his voice shaking, "Jasper, I can't."
Francis lowered his head, admitting defeat. Even if Harper just pitied him, he'd take it.
He couldn't live without her.
Jasper looked back at Francis, wanting to shake him off but couldn't. After all, Francis had given Harper more than half of his blood to save her.
But Jasper couldn't stand seeing Harper hurt. It was a tough spot! In the end, he gave in, "I don't want to see this happen again. If it does, I won't hold back. I'll tear you two apart, even if it kills me."
Francis muttered, "Thank you."
Jasper sighed, feeling like he was repaying Francis for saving Harper's life last time. Otherwise, he'd always feel uneasy. This way, if there were any more mistakes, they'd never see each other again.
Vincent also showed up at the hospital. After making sure Harper was okay, he went back to deal with the arrogant servants.
Everyone thought Vincent didn't care about Harper, so they slacked off.
It was time to set things straight!
Vincent didn't hold back, whipping the lazy driver and the night-shift maid.
After a lot of screaming, everyone finally got it—Harper was important. They wouldn't slack off again.
Vincent then went to talk with Jasper. He had some big news.
