Chapter 381: Don't Pretend to Be Affectionate, You Don't Deserve It

Jasper's face, already devoid of much kindness, now revealed a hint of malice. He stared at Tina and asked in a deep voice, "When did you find out?" He had guessed that Tina would eventually discover his identity but hadn't expected it to be so soon. Perhaps it wasn't today; maybe she had known for a long time. In front of her, he was like a clown performing for her amusement, while she watched with a smile, likely mocking him in her heart.

"Let me think," Tina propped her chin with one hand, pretending to recall carefully for a moment. "Probably since Callum Maguire and Snow Judd disguised themselves as my foster parents."

Jasper's eyes narrowed; he hadn't expected it to be that early. He had underestimated Tina. Natalie was ruthless, and her daughter even more so. A serpent never gives birth to a mouse.

"So, you returned to the Reed family not to find your biological father but to avenge your mother?" Jasper asked in a low voice.

Tina curled her lips but said nothing.

After a moment of silence, Jasper said, "Since you know everything, you should also know that I didn't kill your mother." He had loved Natalie at first sight but knew they could never be together. When he discovered that Natalie was Lark, he realized their relationship would eventually dissolve into nothingness. He was Elliot Winnington, a senior agent of GTO and the stand-in for the second-in-command Mr. Kim. Apart from the boss, he was the only one who knew Mr. Kim's true identity. GTO was the organization he served, and Lark was its greatest enemy.

He had spent three years with Natalie, each day being the best memory of his life. They had visited every flower field in Ashbury and seen the most beautiful sceneries together. He thought they would spend their lives together. Unfortunately, Natalie's intentions were not pure, just as his own were not innocent.

Later, he decided to use Liliosa at their engagement party to kill Natalie. Making that decision caused him immense pain because she was the woman he loved most. But he hadn't expected Natalie to escape and use his identity to eliminate over a hundred GTO undercover agents before disappearing without a trace. At that moment, Jasper couldn't tell if he felt relieved or resentful, but he knew he would never forget her.
