GoodNovelChapter 430 Chapter 430 Think It Through 1/1 Alisa had lost her smile. She said she felt a bit tired.
I silently held her hand, hoping to give her a bit of reassurance. But to my surprise, I found Jasper waiting for us as we returned home.
His features closely resemble Alisa's, sharing about 60% of his looks with hints of late Aunt Sally's characteristics. He looked unwell, his frthin and somewhat sickly.

His head was bandaged, and he had bruises under his eyes, clearly showing signs of having been in a fight. As we approached, he scrambled to his feet. "This is my home! What gives you the right to keepout?" "Letremind you, Alisa, I'm the only son of the Green family. All of this should belong to me. I've got a lawyer now, and you should know I have a stake in all of this! No one gets to take it all for themselves!" His voice was hoarse, his eyes filled with malice and greed. "How dare you say that? Where were you when Dad was in trouble? Don't you realize that all the issues the Green family faced were because of you?" Alisa trembled with rage, hurling curses at Jasper.
Julian stepped in to hold her back while I positioned myself protectively between them.
"Jasper, you have no claim to this house. After Uncle Keenan's incident, the company lost a lot of money. This all belongs to Alisa. If you cany closer, I'll call the police. You've got debts abroad that you still haven't cleared, right? "Don't think those people won't find you just because you're back. You'd better keep your tail between your legs!" Hearing this, Jasper's angry expression turned even more twisted. Then, he seemed to have a sudden thought and smirked.
"What does it matter? Eva, don't think we're family just because you share the Green name. The company and the house are mine; I'm the sole heir of the Greens, and I'll reclaim everything." He made to leave, but I couldn't hold back a laugh.
"How are you gonna reclaim all of it? Just by relying on Leonard's help? Jasper, do you really believe Leonard is on your side? He could abandon me, his legal wife, and toss aside his own child. To him, you're nothing." I watched him expressionlessly, and for a moment, he appeared genuinely taken aback. But then he burst out laughing again.
"Eva, I know you've dug into my past. I have debts, but that doesn't mean I'm stupid. The money for it will either cfrom him or Alisa; someone will have to pay. I won't survive without it. Just think it through, Eva. Leonard toldto take good care of you." I felt an impulse to charge at him, but Alisa heldback.
"Eva, stop! What's the point of talking to scum like him?" I stood there, watching Jasper swagger away while feeling a storm of frustration building inside me. So, Leonard was such a person. He was willing to resort to any means to get what he wanted.

He not only relied on moral manipulation but also dragged Alisa into his schemes just to pressure me. I felt a tight knot in my chest as if I could hardly breathe. Julian cover and gently patted my back.
"Take a deep breath. Don't faint on me. I'm also just a patient myself." NO
Following his lead, I focused on breathing deeply and gradually m calmed down, Turning back to Alisa, whose eyes were red with emotion, I pulled her into a tight embrace.
"I'm here for you. Don't be afraid. I'll help you, I promise."
