Let Me Stay The Night

Jasper was Timothy’s trusted aide. He was usually the first person to be informed of all Timothy’s undertakings. As far as he knew, the relationship between Nigel and Timothy had deteriorated so badly that they likely couldn’t wait for the other to drop dead.

It was a little ridiculous and strange that the Gibson family that had stirred up a storm in the city had suddenly decided to let bygones be bygones today.

Jasper did not dare let his guard down. Although Azure was Timothy’s biological mother, Jasper did not trust her one bit.

“I need to say goodbye to Mr. Gibson personally,” said Jasper icily. “This is a rule that Mr. Gibson has set for the people around him.”

Azure did not know of the rules that Timothy had set for his subordinates. All she knew was that she could not allow Jasper into this mansion under any circumstances. Otherwise, if Jasper broke the news to Christina, she and Nigel would be in a lot of trouble.

“Jasper,” said Azure tersely, “I know you’re a very conscientious butler. While you have to respect your employer, you must also respect his family. The Gibson family has indeed been through a lot of trouble lately, but most of them were misunderstandings. Timothy has already thought this true. Things are going to go back to the way they were for this family. You’re a smart man. I’m sure you know how to gauge the situation.”

Jasper knew that Azure harbored ulterior motives, but he did not want to cause trouble for Timothy either. If things turned out exactly as Azure had described, and Timothy had chosen to forgive her and Nigel for their past deeds, then his brashness would only upset Timothy.

Jasper lowered his eyes. “Very well. I’ll take my leave.”

When Azure was certain that Jasper had driven away, she turned and entered the mansion. Timothy was heavily injured and could not die at Nigel’s hand under any circumstances.

Although Azure favored Nigel, Timothy was still her flesh and blood. Naturally, she was heartbroken for him too.

Jasper circled the nearby area once before driving back to Nigel’s mansion and parking somewhere close. He would not leave so easily without confirming Timothy’s safety.

After waiting until midnight, Jasper spotted a car driving slowly into Nigel’s mansion. A man left the driver’s seat and quickly walked to the trunk and pulled out a small white box.

It was very dim in the courtyard, but Jasper vaguely noticed a red cross on the small white box.
