Chapter: 834

Infuriated, he landed a harsh slap on her, sending her sprawling to the ground. He spat, “Are you mad?

You fell for a Lunatic! He didn’t even blink an eye when his mother took her Life right before his eyes!”

Ariana’s response was muted, her heart heavy with a cocktail of grief and rage. She glared at Jasper,

her eyes a storm of confusion and resentment, as if ready to lash out at him at any moment.

Jasper’s smirk widened at her hesitation, his words growing increasingly callous. “You’re clueless,

aren’t you? Aimee and Theodore are both crazy. What kind of love could you possibly hope for from a

madman? He could hang himself right in front of you, or worse, harm you and your unborn child.

Ariana, he doesn’t love you. He doesn’t even understand what Love means. He has a heart of stone.”

Ariana’s gaze never faltered from Jasper’s, her icy stare remaining unyielding as he spiraled further

into his frenzied monologue. She maintained her silence, her hands tied behind her struggling against

the bindings. Despite the ropes cutting into her flesh, leaving her hands raw and bloody, she continued

her struggle, her eyes filled with hatred and fixed on Jasper.

Tired of her resilient silence and his own unsuccessful attempts to manipulate her, Jasper decided to

stop his tirade.

He hauled her to her feet and hustled her onto the boat. The explosion had triggered a wave of chaos,

and he knew it wouldn’t be Long before people descended onto the scene. Eager to avoid a

confrontation, he roughly pushed Ariana onto the deck and tried to power up the control terminal.

Despite his repeated attempts, it stubbornly remained unresponsive.

Feeling a wave of panic wash over him, Jasper swore, hammering his fists against the stubborn control

panel. “Why the hell isn’t this working?”

Ready to seek an alternative solution, he whirled around, only to replace himself staring into the business

end of a gun.

Jasper blanched, his eyes wide in disbelief as he found Theodore standing in front of him. “How did

you get here? Weren’t you on that ship?”

Realization hit him hard. Their current location was quite a distance from the explosion site. How had

Theodore managed to replace them?

Theodore’s eyes were stormy as he coldly held up his phone, a small bunny pendant swaying gently.

“All thanks to your request that Helen put a tracking device on my phone. Without it, you would’ve

slipped away.”

Stunned, Jasper immediately took out the monitor in his pocket.

The green dot on the screen showed pier three.

Jasper then realized that Theodore had already discovered the tracker on his phone. The ship had

exploded, but his plan had failed.

Jasper was so furious that he violently slammed the monitor against the ground. Glancing coldly at

Theodore, he asked with a livid face, “I never thought you’d replace the tracker! I’m curious, how did you

manage to replace it?”

“Well, you Knew all my arrangements beforehand, including my whereabouts when I deposited money

at your first two designated locations. There could only be one explanation for that, and that is that you

were tracking me. I mean, it was so obvious, and it didn’t take a genius to figure it out!”

Theodore had felt something was fishy when he realized they knew everything about him.

Initially, he thought that one of his men had betrayed him, so he decided to act in secret.

Last time, he accidentally spilled his coffee, soaking his phone and the bunny charm in the process. It

was because he wanted to limit the damage to his device that he happened to replace the tracker in the

charm.

Jasper stared blankly at Theodore for a while. At this time, he knew that Theodore was definitely aware

of his alliance with Helen.

Theodore would definitely not let him go this time.

Looking at the gun in Theodore’s hand, Jasper knew he couldn’t escape.

Then suddenly, he pulled Ariana in front of him and pulled out a dagger which he pressed to her neck.

He gritted his teeth and said to Theodore, “If I die, she is dying with me.”

Theodore glared coldly at him and said indifferently, “I don’t want you to die. Let her go and you can

Leave with the money.”

“Theodore, do you think I will believe you? Will you show me mercy because of a woman?” Obviously,

Jasper didn’t believe Theodore’s words at all. He pressed the dagger harder against Ariana’s neck and

said fiercely, “Put down the gun!”
