The Ghost members came forward to detain Jacob.

Jasper walked toward Jenson and asked, "I've been meaning to ask you something. Jens, now that my mother is dead, how do you plan on distributing her shares to the Ares family?"

Jenson looked at the look of urgency on Jasper's face. It was as though his mother's death no longer meant anything to him, and this only made Jenson's heart colder.

"Uncle Jasper, your mother's ashes are still here. Are you not even thinking of giving her a proper burial before you mention her assets? I'm sure she'll be bitterly disappointed in you."

A touch of shame flashed across Jasper's face, but he quickly forced out the words, "You don't get it. My mother's greatest wish in her life was to protect the second branch's assets. She'll never allow the assets she had worked so hard on to fall into the hands of those who seek to reap without sowing anything."

Jenson said, "The second branch's assets have been transferred abroad by your father, so there's not much left behind for you and your siblings."

Jasper felt like he had just been struck by lightning. H

e was unwilling to accept this.

Jenson proceeded to turn around and walked into Mammoth Courtyard's house.

Jacob was sitting devastatingly on the sofa, akin to a dog that was abandoned by its family.

"What do you plan on asking, Jens?" Jacob asked in a displeased manner.

Jenson said, "Grandpa Jacob, there's a homicide case in the Ares household. Do you think we should hand this over to the police or deal with it internally?"

"What do you think?" Jacob asked, remaining calm and collected.

Jenson said, "Why don't we hand this case over to the police?"

Jacob secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Since Madam Charlotte's body had been destroyed, the evidence of him having poisoned her was gone as well.

It was as if Jenson had seen through his relief, and his sexy lips showed a smile of determination to get whatever he wanted. He secretly glanced at Grayson, giving him a look. Grayson tacitly understood him. Then, he took out a phone and turned on the recording function.

Jenson took out the Variety Pendant and looked at it in scrutiny.

Jacob became impatient with him and urged, "Since you've decided to call the police, then there's no need for me to cooperate with you."

Jenson said, "Don't be nervous, Grandpa Jacob. Just answer a couple of my questions first."

"Ask then."

"Why does Madam Nephele keep snakes and Witchbugs? Who does she plan on using them with?"

"I don't know," said Jacob impatiently.

"Madam Nephele has been hiding within the Ares family for more than ten years. What are her true intentions?"

"I don't know. I do not know!"

Jenson said again, "So what's the relationship between the two of you?"

Jacob was startled and hesitated for a moment before saying, "What else could it be? I like her, and she's my lover."

Jenson said, "Since you're not cooperating with me, Grandpa Jacob, don't blame me for being impolite."

After Jenson said this, he dropped the pendant in front of Jacob's eyes.

"What are you planning on doing?"

"I'm going to hypnotize you." "Heh. I know that you're well versed in the art of hypnotism, but it's useless against me. Your silly little toy won't hypnotize me..."
