Tells handed Sebastian the transcript and explained, “Weciding to his confession, his real name is Jasper, hut we can’t verify whether he’s telling truth. We’ve done an online search and found no recents related to anyone named Jasper. We suspect he might be using a fake identity.“
Sebastian exchanged a glance with Vincent and then said, “Let’s assume he’s really Jasper
“Sure, follow me,” Felix replied
or for now. Felly, please arrange for us to meet in
The two of them walked to the interrogation rooms. Through the one way mitror, they could see the man sitting inside.
“Sebastian , let me talk to him first. “Vincent said.
“Go ahead,” Sebastian replied..
Vincent walked into the room first. The moment the man saw him, his eyebrows raised slightly
“Vincent, what are you doing here?”
“My father is about to be sent to prison. Don’t I have the right to come and see you ? Vincent walked over, sat down, and stared at him, “Why hide everything? I don’t care what your real name is, but why pretend to be Sebastian’s father? Now that your identity has been exposed, have you considered how this affects my sister and me?”
He looked at his so called father, heartbroken, unable to believe what was happening.
“Sorry, Vincent. I did it so you and your sister could return to The Vanderbilt Family with legitimacyTM
Hearing Jasper’s explanation, Vincent let out a bitter laugh. “Legitimacy? If you had returned to The Vanderbilt Family as the second son, my sister and would have returned with legitimacy. But why did you do this? Why impersonate Uncle and complicate everything?”
Jasper didn’t respond. Vincent struggled to control his emotions and continued , “Do you even understand the pain you’ve caused us? I hate you, do you hear me?”
At this point, Vincent could no longer hold back his tears. He wept in pain, grieving for his identity.
“Why do have parents like this ? Mom did so many terrible things and was sent to prison. My sister and I could barely hold our heads high in The Vanderbilt Family , and now there’s you!”
“I wish I wasn’t your son, that I didn’t have your blood running through my veins! I hate you, and I hate myself even more.”
Vincent’s heart broke as he buried his face in his hands, sobbing quietly.
Outside the interrogation room, Sebastian heard Vincent’s words, and they deeply affected him.
All these years, he had never accepted Vincent as his brother , never treated him well. He had no idea that Vincent had longed for their sibling bond and
had depended on him so much. Perhaps it was his own prejudice that had kept him from understanding Vincent’s sincerity.
Jasper, upon hearing his son’s words, was shaken. “Wincent, I am sorry…”
“if you truly feel sorry, then tell the truth. Stop hurting anyone else!” Vincent said, standing up and walking out of the interrogation room.
“Vincent, Vincent…” Jasper called after him , but Vincent didn’t stop.
Outside, he met Sebastian and quickly wiped the tears from his face , “Sebastian, I’m done. You can go in now.
“Okay” Sebastian gave his shoulder a reassuring squeeze before walking into the room
Sebastian sat down , his eyes dark and intense as he looked at the man in front of him–who shared the same face as his father.

“ your real name is Jasper?”
es, Jasper confirmed.
He had admitte his name, but so what? They still couldn’t find any information aboot him.
“Since you’re my uncle, why didn’t you just return to The Vanderbilt Family back then? Why did you have to replace my father by eliminating him?”
On this issue, Jasper kept his story. “Sebastian, I’ve already told you, things not as simple as they seem. You all think I got rid of your father to take his place, but the truth is, I never harmed him.”
Sebastian scoffed. “Then tell me, where is my father is he alive or dead? if you can explain that, I might believe your
Jasper refused to reveal the truth. He knew that if he did, the consequences would be unimaginable.
“Bang!” Sebastian slammed his fist down on the table. “After all this time, you’re still playing games with me? You clearly plotted against my father to take his place, and now you want to fool me?”
“I don’t care if you believe me or not, what I’m saying is the truth!” Jasper insisted, trying to appear as though he were also a victim.
Sebastian wasn’t buying it. “Even if you say you didn’t harm my father, you still haven’t told me where he ist For 18 years , you’ve been impersonating him. How do you explain your motives for doing this?”
Jasper sighed deeply. “Sebastian, you should understand that there’s a saying: “In the world , a person’s life is not entirely their own! That’s my situation, please stop making this harder for me.”
“Not entirely your own? Were you forced by someone? Who? Tell me! Who dared to threaten you? Or are they trying to threaten The Vanderbilt family?”
u can get away with this? Altar replacing my father Sebastian’s anger was bubbling over. He was desperate to make Jasper spill everything. “You think you and engaging in all those shady dealings through KM International Group, do you think you can still hide everything? Just tell me, is there a dark power behind the scenes controlling you? Who’s really pulling your strings?”
Jasper was momentarily surprised by Sebastian’s sharp intuition, but he remained silent,
Sebastian could sense that there was a much deeper secret hidden behind all this. Jasper was doing everything to conceal it, but why?
After a long silence, Sebastian spoke again. “Don’t forget! Even though my grandmother thought you had died, you didn’t grow up with The Vanderbilt Family, you still have their blood in your veins! Are you really going to betray your own blood and send The Vanderbilt Family into ruin?
His words were powerful, striking the air with finality.
After that , there was no more conversation. The room fell into a long and tense silence.
Perhaps Sebastian’s words had touched something deep inside Jasper. With a long sigh, he finally spoke, “Sebastian , I can only tell you meant to harm The Vanderbilt Family, I never harmed your father. Your father is still alive”

I never
Sebastian could hardly believe his ears. His father … was alive?
“Where is he? Can’t you tell me where he is?”
