Life at the Top

“Mister… Mr. Hanks, why are you looking at me like that…”

Startled by Zayden’s gaze, Terence asked with a tremble.

Zayden clenched his jaw and glared at Terence. “Why am I looking at you like that? Let me ask you instead, how did Jasper know that you were the one who set the fire, huh? Also, he told you to find out who else I’m in contact with? Did you tell him I was here?”

Terence’s mind buzzed, and he was dazed.

Countless excuses had flashed through his mind on the way here before he decided that he would just be frank instead. After all, he would be screwed if Zayden found anything out.

However, it had not occurred to him that he had a fatal loophole in this script of his.

Jasper did not know that Zayden had returned at all, so the fact that Jasper would tell Terence to find out who else Zayden was in contact with meant that Terence had already confessed about Zayden being the person he was taking orders from.
