Jasper sneered and said, "Heartless? But are we as ruthless as you are? You killed our mother and tried to transfer all of her assets without even leaving us a penny. Dad, in comparison to what you've done, we're very compassionate."

Jacob's expression grew awkward and unnatural. "In any case, I still worked hard to bring all three of you up. You can't just sit back and not care about me, right?"

Jasper said, "How do you want us to care for you?"

"The two million dollar fine is just a drop in the ocean for the three of you. So pay it up for me."

Jasper was indignant now and retorted, "Hmph! Don't you know that Jay already knows you're not a descendant of an Ares? Now the three of us don't know how much longer we're allowed to stay in the Ares household. We need to keep some money for emergencies."

"Jasper... How could you be so ruthless...?"

Julia said with tears in her eyes, "Stop it. Don't argue anymore. Two million isn't a lot for us, Brother. Let's just divide it equally."

Jasper and Jo gave it a thought and ultimately agreed to Julia's suggestion.

Julia said to Jacob, "The three of us will pay for your two million dollar fine, Dad. But you're on your own from now on."

After that, Julia turned around and left without looking back.

Jasper and Jo left with her as well, not turning their heads back at all.

Jacob was left behind, and he remained frozen on the spot.

Did his children just abandon him?

A wave of sadness overwhelmed his entire body.

Tears also rolled down his cheeks uncontrollably. When he lifted his sleeve to wipe his tears off, he suddenly heard cold words filled with sarcasm.

"If you had known that this day would come, why'd you do it anyway?"

Jacob widened his eyes and saw Jenson standing stalwartly in front of him. Thinking that his dirty laundry had been seen by this child who was still wet behind the ears, he suddenly got too embarrassed to show his face.

"What are you doing here?" Jacob snarled.

He always believed that it was Jenson who had exposed all his conspiracies. If it were not because of this brat, he would still be the unboundedly magnificent second old master of the Ares family. Jenson was currently standing tall in front of him with his hands behind his back. With his back standing against the light, the rays of light and shadows were mottling him, making him look extraordinarily treacherous.

"I'd like to know where Nephele Davis is."

Jacob sneered, "And why would I tell you that?"

Jenson said, "Jacob Ares, if you don't tell me, I'll evict Jasper and his siblings out of the Ares household."

A trace of panic flashed across Jacob's eyes, but he continued to sneer, "Hmph! Those unfilial children? D o as you wish."

Jenson scoffed back. "There's no need to deceive yourself."

"What do you mean?"

"I saw you talking to Jasper earlier. When he said those words to you, you were upset."

"Any father who's abandoned by his children will feel sad. What's weird about that?"

"But I'd prefer to think that you merely cut ties with them to protect them. That way, the Ares family will sympathize with them and keep them in the Ares family."

"Your imagination is beyond my comprehension, Jenson Ares. I killed their mother, so what makes you think I care about what happens to them?"

Jenson said, "If it were any other people, they would probably believe your words. But I'm different. I was doted on by my daddy and cared for by my mommy, so I believe that there's a high probability that paternal love is selfless."
