A dull thud sounded in the room.
That was the sound of Henry kicking Prince in the stomach.
These past few hours had Henry going crazy with all the bottled up fury.
He had always been the one framing others, not the one being set up.
With this incident of being set up involving such a sensitive subject, Prince was truly trying to get rid of Henry for good.
Henry had no option but to suppress his anger before since the situation was murky and not in his favor.
However, now that both parties were clearly going into war and Henry had Jasper and his family supporting him, he no longer held back his distaste for Prince.
“F*ck you! You motherf*cking b*tstard! I’ve had enough with you already!”
Henry ran after him to kick Prince a few more times.
“You really think I’m something you can mold and control as you wish? What the f*ck?”
Henry looked down at Prince from above and his eyes gleamed with the desire to devour Prince alive.
Henry pointed at Prince who was yelping pitifully and shouted, “Watch your words, stupid. Or I’ll kill your entire family!”
This was the second time Prince was getting beaten up by Henry and the resentment on the former’s face almost seeped out of it.
Still, no matter how much he hated Henry, Prince had no other option but to swallow his fury.
This was because he could not beat Henry in a fight, and a fighter like Julian was also present.
Lying on the ground, Prince’s fingers scraped the carpet beneath him and clenched his fists tightly.
He slowly climbed up from the ground and wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth. Then he glared at Henry and Jasper.
“I’d like to see how much longer you two can act proud!”
Then, Prince left the private room with a limp.
Henry was furious and was about to run after Prince to continue beating him up, only for Jasper to help him back.
“Let him go. He’s not the most important person in this fight anymore.”
Henry frowned when he heard Jasper. “This f*cker’s full of bad news. He won’t just let this go if we let him run free.”
Jasper replied with a smile, “We’re already fighting to the death. Unless you plan to kill me right here and now?”
Henry waved Jasper off.
Beating Prince up to vent his anger was something insignificant.
Yet to kill Prince right here would escalate the situation into something extremely huge. No matter how powerful the Law family was, Henry would not be able to walk out of this unscathed if that happened.
Henry was a trust-fund child, but he was not stupid.
Two parties of substantial strengths and statuses would not engage in battle lightly. However, once engaged, it would certainly be a huge war. Fistfights between the two parties were no more than an outlet to vent.
“The most important thing now is to deal with your murder charge.”
Jasper glanced at Julian as he spoke.
“I’m going to need you to do the legwork, Jul.”
Naturally, Julian had no qualms and he replied solemnly, “What do I need to do?”
Jasper gave it some thought before pulled out a check from his breast pocket and filled it in. Handing it to Julian, Jasper said, “Take this money and go look for a few trustworthy people to follow you from the company. First things first, find everyone involved in the incident this morning.”
“Be it through threats or bribes, find leads.”
“Then go to the morgue in the hospital and look for the doctor or coroner that identified the victim.”
“There’s no way someone would die from getting slapped twice, so find out his true cause of death. This has to be investigated thoroughly because only with this truth will Henry be cleared of suspicion.”
Julian nodded and replied, “I’ll get to it immediately. But Jasper, if we can come up with this, they should have made preparations too, right?”
Jasper replied calmly, “The timing’s too hasty. There’s no way their planning is flawless.”
“Worse come to worst we’ll just do another autopsy. A living person can be bribed and threatened, but the dead doesn’t lie. As long as the body’s still there, there’ll be evidence.”
