Chapter 217: Not His Son

Jeremy hurriedly appeased his wife after hearing her words.

Mrs.Wyne was about ten years older than Jeremy.

Although she was in her forties, because of her good maintenance, she only looked like she was, at
most, in her early thirties.

She also had excellent skills in acting coy and gaining pity.

This was why she became the woman Jeremy favored the most.

In order to coax his wife, Jeremy even scolded his son.

"Why are you talking to your aunt like that?"

Jasper’s heart went cold.He was annoyed.He was the one who did the hard work to clean up the mess
his ‘younger brother’ made.

Yet when he returned, he even received a scolding! Who could tolerate receiving such an ungrateful
treatment? Axel's words came to mind.

Jasper finally understood how correct Axel was.

At this point, the Wyne family was already so rotten to the point of hopelessness.

It was time for him to cut his arm to save himself.

Jasper raised his head.

His eyes displayed determination as he stared at his father.



"Dad, there's only one way to save the Wyne family.As long as you kick Jack and that woman beside
you, we may have a chance."

Mrs.Wyne stiffened after hearing Jasper’s suggestion.

But she was very skillful.

She didn’t act like a shrew and directly curse Jasper.

Instead, she asked Jeremy to back her up.

"Darling, did you hear what he said? Even in front of you, he dares to treat me terribly.It's much worse
behind your back.I pity myself.Someone's bullying me and my son is comatose.I might as well die to
end my suffering."

Jeremy was incensed.

He fumed, "You bastard, quickly apologize.If you don't I'll kick you out of the Wyne family!"

Jasper sneered dispassionately.

"Do it.Now that you've offended the Harrison family, the Wyne family has nothing left."

Jasper's words made Mrs.Wyne panic.

She thought that Jasper did not care anymore because the Wyne family was about to be bankrupt.

Even if the Wyne family went bankrupt, at least Jasper still had the property his rich mother left for him.

On the contrary, she and her son would be left with nothing.

Mrs.Wyne knew that she should not let Jasper go.



Pretending to be filled with grievance, she pleaded, "Darling, it's all my fault.You two are father and
son.You shouldn't quarrel because of me!"

What Jasper disliked the most was Mrs.Wyne’s appearance.

He coldly watched Mrs.Wyne, who didn't know that a disaster was about to befall her.

"Stop pretending.We already know what you've done!"

Furious, Mrs.Wyne couldn't help but glare at Jasper, wishing she could rush up and tear him apart.

"What are you trying to say? Don't beat around the bush.Now that the Wyne family is in crisis, you want
to leave your father and run away? You're an unfilial son.One day, karma will get back at you!"

Jasper locked gazes with her, his eyes full of meaning.

"Why don't you tell me who caused this crisis? If it wasn't for your precious son, would we be in dire
straits?"

Jeremy furiously retorted, "Bastard, he's your younger brother!"

Jasper sneered in a calm yet confident manner, "No, he's not."

Mrs.Wyne felt her blood turn cold for a moment but she didn't let it show on her face.

Jeremy didn't overthink Jasper's response and assumed that the latter merely have gone crazy and
thus refused to acknowledge his younger brother anymore.

Out of Jeremy’s expectations, Jasper released a bomb the next second.

Jasper met with Jeremy's eyes.



He had a grim expression, his lips curled into a sinister smile.

He neither yelled nor talked angrily.

In fact, he sounded so calm, it felt uncomfortable to hear.

He unblinkingly said, "Dad, have you ever wondered how an A blood type and B blood type could give
birth to an O blood type?"

Jeremy's pupils dilated out of shock.

In just a second, he seemed to have aged a few years.

He wasn't a fool.

He also knew that his son wasn't a fool.

Jasper would not lie about something that could be easily exposed.

Mrs.Wyne’s mind also blanked out and it took her a long time to recover.

She tremblingly held Jeremy's hand, saying, "Darling, Jasper is trying to frame me!"

Jasper disdainfully harrumphed and pulled his wife along with him.

They left the ward together.

Anyway, his mother was long gone and he didn't want to be part of sucha family! Melody received an
update on the situation regarding the Wyne family.

After learning about the recent events, she smiled calmly.

"Luke, investigate Jasper.If he's talented, make some arrangements!"



"Yes.Don't worry, boss."

Luke mentally cheered for Jasper.

‘He's lucky"

Jasper wouldn't have a good future if he stayed in the Wyne family that was already in such a hot
mess.

Having the opportunity to work for Melody could be considered a blessing in disguise.

As Luke thought of this, another matter came to mind.

"Boss, the contract with David has been officially signed.As long as this news is released in addition to
the contract the base signed, winning your bet with the Sullivan family is absolute!"

The deadline for the agreement was not anytime soon.

However, just the two contracts Melody arranged could double the market value of the Sullivan Group
and cause its stock price to soar.

Luke wondered.

‘Why do they even want to fight Boss? They won't gain anything from doing so"

Melody hummed in response.

The results were all according to plan.

She knew beforehand that those could raise the Sullivan family’s market value.She just hadn't thought
of how Quince would react when this news reached him, The Sullivan Family's business was huge.



He had been working hard for it for many years.

Would it be easy for him to give up at this point? Melody could continue thinking about it later.

All she wanted to do was rest for now.

"You can continue practicing.The preliminary round will start the day after tomorrow and the finals are
next week."

When she called Luke earlier, he was playing the drums.

"Boss, I'll do my best!"

Two days later, there was no suspense in the preliminary round at all.

Melody's group easily passed.

The performance was already over yet everyone was still dumbfounded.

When they got down from the stage, Melody, and Lance was instantly surrounded by the crowd.

Clifford and the others looked at the three of them excitedly.

At first, everyone thought that they signed up just to make up the numbers.

Surprisingly, they were all skilled! Several of them enthusiastically praised them at the same time.

"Boss, Lance, you guys are amazing! I have suffered from last song syndrome since I heard the song
during your rehearsal.I couldn't fall asleep at all.The song kept playing on a loop inside my head.I
finally heard the original again.It’s so good!"



"Yes! I recorded the whole performance.I'll listen to it when I go back tonight.Just thinking of it makes
me happy!"

Despite facing enthusiastic praises from all sides, Melody was still calm and composed.

On the contrary, Lance was doubtful.

Despite having a good relationship with his brothers, this was the first time they praised him like this.

"Are you exaggerating?"

Lance cast suspicious glances at them.

Everyone nodded and pointed at Melody, "But of course, Boss Melody was the best.Her voice was
amazing!"

"Agreed! It’s superb."

A voice suddenly sounded, cutting everyone off.

Everyone turned their heads and saw Hunter standing behind them.

It was a well-known fact that Hunter had a cold and aloof personality and that he rarely took the
initiative to interact with others.

He had an excellent musical talent.

However, he was aloof to the point that he wouldn't even talk to his classmates during weekdays.

No one minded.

After all, they were used to it and it was a popular fact that geniuses were always lonely.



It was just that, none of them expected that he would come and praise Melody.

By this fact alone, it could be seen how amazing Melody was!
