Chapter 1777


    Chapter 1777


    When he pushed open the door, he saw Jasper and William lying on the bed. William seemed to be


    asleep, while Jasper looked


    like she was reading as she was holding a storybook. A maid was looking after them.


    The maid immediately got up when she saw Jason.


    “You can go out first,” Jason told the maid.


    The maid replied softly and left the room.


    “Daddy?” Jasper looked at Jason in confusion. ‘Uncle Butler said Daddy would be staying with Mommy


    in the hospital these days. Why is he back again?’


    “Were you telling William a story?” Jason asked gently. He had shed his usual indifference and pride.


    He looked like an ordinary


    father in front of his daughter.


    “Yup!” Jasper said, but in a lower voice than usual. It was as if she was afraid of waking William. “He


    couldn’t sleep, so I thought I’d tell him a story so he could fall asleep. Whenever I can’t sleep, Mommy


    reads me a story and I’ll fall asleep.”


    Jasper hesitated a little and said to Jason, “Daddy, I know William’s mommy is a bad person who


    wanted to hurt Mommy

    and my brother, but William isn’t a bad person. Can you not send him away? Let him stay here!”


    Jason raised his eyebrows slightly. “Why? Do you like him very much, Jasper?”


    “Yeah, I do.” Jasper nodded her little head.


    “Why do you like him?” asked Jason.


    The little one said, “Because he ys the piano, and it’s strange that he didn’t y better when he


    could. Even so, I’d love to hear him y and y with him. It’d be fun!”


    When Jasper said this, her apricot eyes that were simr to Grace’s seemed to sparkle with light. They


    were full of


    expectations.


    Jason’s eyes flickered with a hint of gloom. “So you deliberately handcuffed yourself to him and flushed


    the key down the toilet because you thought he could stay if you did that?”


    Jasper did not speak, but her expression seemed to show a tacit


    agreement.


    “But did it ur to you that the new key will be delivered soon, and he’ll still have to leave the Reed


    family once the handcuffs are off?” asked Jason.


    Jasper Reed’s little face crinkled up immediately. She pouted and

    said, “Then… Then I’ll throw away the new key!”


    What she implied was that she would keep William in the Reed family no matter what.


    Jason looked at his daughter and said lightly, “Do you think he can stay in the Reed family if you do


    that? Did it ever ur to you that it’s actually a piece of cake if I really want to separate you?”


    The little one blinked, her eyes full of confusion.


    “For example…” Jason nced at their handcuffed hands. “If William’s hand is chopped off, you can


    still be separated even with the handcuffs on, right?”


    Jasper Reed’s almond-shaped eyes instantly widened with panic and fear. Suddenly, her small hand


    immediately pressed on William’s handcuffed hand. “Daddy… are… Are you going to chop off William’s


    hand?”


    Her daughter’s panicked appearance made Jason feel a little


    guilty. He should not have said what he did and frightened her,


    but he wanted her to see the reality of things.
