Jonah took a few steps and stood in front of Jasper. He looked down on Jasperâs pale face with contempt.
âJasper, you truly deserve to die.â
The next moment, Jonah suddenly leaned forward, knocking Jasper off the chair!
The two men fell heavily, and Sean exclaimed in shock, âMr. Jonah! Be careful!â
Jasperâs back suffered a severe blow, and it felt as though his internal organs shook with it.
Suddenly, a glint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
Jonah stared at him with a fierce gaze. He held a sharp cross-shaped dagger high, aiming at Jasperâs pupils, as if about to deliver a cruel punishment.
Sean panicked and shouted, âMr. Jonah! Stop!â
He comprehended Jonahâs feelings entirely. He, too, shared his resentment toward Jasper for robbing Alyssa of her innocence.
However, Jonah would be caught up in endless trouble if he harmed Jasper, and Alyssa would be plunged into deep self-blame!
This was never the situation Alyssa wanted to see.
Jonah should not soil his hands for such a despicable man.
Seeing that the dagger was about to pierce his eye, Jasper showed no fear. Instead, a bitter and numb expression replaced any sign of fear.
âJonah! You fucking stop right there!â
In the nick of time, Landon arrived, He rushed forward to Jonah and used all his strength to press Jonah to the ground.
The sharp tip of the knife also changed direction together with them.
Jasper felt a chill on his neck, followed by a sharp pain.
The blade cut a slender wound on his neck, and fresh blood oozed out.
Jasper reached up to touch his neck as he lay flat on the ground. His palm felt the stick The blade would have pierced his eye if Landon had arrived a second later.
Jonah rarely resorted to violence. He only acted when he intended to leave a lasting memory of his wrath.
Jonah stared at him with bloodshot eyes, and he aimed the tip of the knife at Landonâs shoulder and neck.
âGet out of the way. Donât meddle in my business.â
âI have to handle this matter!â
Struggling to breathe, Landon firmly directed the blade toward his own heart and declared, âIf youâre brave enough, end me. Plunge it right here! I orchestrated Jasper and Lyseâs affair. Itâs my fault!
âSpare Jasper. If you seek to kill or torture, I will bear it all! But have you thought about Lyseâs feelings in all of this? Does she want to witness her cherished elder brother get stained with blood?â
Alyssaâs name acted as a sedative for Jonah.
His fierce and hostile gaze gradually subsided.
Seeing Jonah retract the dagger, Landon silently breathed a sigh of relief.
Only he knew how nervous he was moments ago, and his heart felt like it was about to jump out.
âMr. Jonah!â Sean hurried over to assist him, Landon also went to support Jasper. Landonâs hands were still trembling, and he felt a lingering unease.
He thought he was tough dealing with both sides of the law. However, Jonah, who committed violence in broad daylight in someone elseâs conference room, was truly a devil!
Jonah had initially wanted to say something, but the situation had escalated to the point where he didnât want to exchange more words with Jasper.
Jasper didnât deserve Alyssaâs love. Nor did Jonah deserve to get his hands dirty.
Jasper was more suitable to live and die on his own!
âDonât mess with my sister again. This is your last warning.â
Jonah put the cross back into his suit pocket. His eyes were red as if shedding blood.
âSean, letâs go.â
Just as they turned around, Jasper hoarsely spoke.
âAs long as sheâs willing, I will marry her.â
Jonah laughed scornfully with his back to him.
âYouâre not worthy My sister wonât marry you even if you are the last man on earth
