Chapter 787
Jasper used 80 percent of his strength with that slap.
He knew his hands, honed in military training, possessed immense power. Sophia wouldn’t only be
looking for her teeth if he used full force. She might even end up unconscious.
He didn’t want to give her an opportunity to leave. Many grievances between Alyssa and her still
needed
to be settled!
Everyone was in a panic. Upon witnessing Jasper slap Sophia, no one dared to intervene.
In this household, not even Javier could control Jasper. Who else could?
Frightened, Betty let out a shriek before covering her mouth. Her whole body was sweaty, and her legs
shook vigorously!
Seeing her mother being slapped, she didn’t even have the courage to rush forward and stop it!
The Harper family members were also dumbfounded.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlthough Sophia’s words were quite harsh, she was still Javier’s wife, Jasper’s stepmother, and
considered an elder. How could Jasper dare to slap an elder in front of so many people?
It was audacious and bold!
This slap not only struck Sophia’s face but also slapped his own father’s dignity.
Only Landon stared at Jasper with such fervor. He took a deep breath, and his lips curved into a slight
smile. Complex emotions surged within him.
This slap was something Jasper had endured for a long time. As Jasper’s only good friend, no one
understood better than him the challenges Jasper faced in his family over the years.
“Ja-Javier… my ears…. my ears can’t hear anything!”
Sophia covered her ears, crying and rushing to Javier, embracing him tightly.
Her lips bled, and her carefully styled hair was now in disarray. Her eye makeup had also been
smeared.
Her image of a noblewoman was completely ruined.
“I’m deaf! Your son has made me deaf! Aren’t you going to do something about it?”
Blood was visibly seeping from between Sophia’s fingers. Alyssa glanced over at Jasper, whose
expression remained as cold as iron.
Without a doubt, that wicked woman’s eardrums must have been ruptured,
It was incredibly gratifying!
Javier looked down at Sophia, his gaze mixed with complexity.
He felt a lingering pain in his heart, but he knew it wasn’t because of Sophia. The pain belonged to the
woman he had buried in his heart for a long time.
Yet, Javier still had to step in.
“Jasper, are you going crazy? How can you lay hands on an elder?”
Jasper curled his thin lips into a chilling smile.
“Elder? What kind of elder is she to me? In the entire Beckett family, Grandpa is my elder. You are my
elder, and Mrs. Rosie is also my elder. Among those I respect, she holds no position.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Mr. Jasper…” Mrs. Rosie suddenly caught on, displaying a smile filled with relief and gratitude.
Sophia’s face, puffy from the slap, turned red. Her chest heaved with rising blood, and the taste of iron
lingered on her tongue.
Jasper’s implication cut deep. In this household, an old housekeeper like Rosie holds a higher status
than
Sophia herself!
Sophia found the situation completely unreasonable, feeling intense frustration toward this illegitimate.
child.
“I address you as Sophia only because you have served my dad for almost 30 years. Elder? Huh,
you’re not worthy of it.” Jasper’s laughter sent chills down people’s spines with its coldness.
The people from the Harper family saw that a fight was about to break out, and they couldn’t leave.
How could they miss such a lively scene?
“My mother is my limit. Anyone who crosses it shouldn’t expect respect from me. I might even go to Li
extent of taking their life,” declared Jasper with cold determination in his eyes.
As he uttered those words, he glanced in Alyssa’s direction.
