Chapter 125
Almost immediately, Jasper noticed the figure lurching at him at an incredible speed.
Axel threw out solid and swift punches with the determination to cripple the latter. Jasper’s eyes deepened as he dodged two of Axel’s moves.
“Ho, you’re something,” Axel squinted his eyes and said mockingly. Eyes burning in anger, Jasper took a few breaths to compose himself.
It had been years since he retired from active military duty. Although he kept up with his boxing training and workout sessions, it had been a while since he fought someone. He had to rely on his solid foundation and muscle memory to fight off the attacker.
After a few rounds, Jasper picked up on the familiarity in the opponent’s moves. The moves reminded him of the close–quarters combat lessons from the military academy he had attended.
“Who’s this mysterious man?” wondered Jasper.
“Ouch-” Jasper was kicked hard in the abdomen and yelped in pain in that moment of distraction. Despite stumbling backward, he quickly steadied himself and stood tall.
What a tough nut!
“Mr. Jasper!” Xavier exclaimed and rushed up to hold Jasper while panting. “Are you okay?”
“I’m fine.” Jasper endured the pain and coughed softly.
“You motherF***er! How dare you attack Mr. Jasper? I’ll kill you!” Xavier was blinded by rage. He barreled toward Axel without thinking.
“Xavier, come back!” It was too late for Jasper to stop his secretary. Xavier would be digging his own grave with his weak combat skills.
“You’ve overestimated yourself.” Axel scoffed.
Xavier had been punched to the ground. He blacked out before he could lay a finger on Axel. Shocked, Jasper glowered at the attacker. “I must have known you! Who exactly are you?”
Axel lifted a brow with a smirk. Of course they were familiar with each other. They attended the same military academy and were the top students of their time. However, they didn’t interact much outside the training.
“I thought you were curious about the important woman I mentioned. I don’t mind telling you.” Axel stepped over Xavier and inched closer to Jasper with a malignant and mysterious smile.” She’s your ex–wife.”
Jasper’s eyes wavered as he curled his trembling fists.

“You’re asking for it!” Jasper’s muscles were flexing under the gray, tailored suit.
The next second, he dashed toward Axel and started sparring with him vigorously.
Eyes darkening in alarm, Axel realized that Jasper’s skills weren’t rusty after many years of retirement. He was even more amazed at Jasper’s agile moves in a restrictive suit.
At that moment, Jasper looked exactly like a cool villain from a gangster movie!
After ten rounds of fighting, Jasper was losing his ground. As he was still intoxicated, it was a miracle that he hung on.
Finally, he lay on the ground limply and felt an explosive pain in his back after Axel defeated him.
“Son of a bitch. Meet your fate.” Just as Axel wanted to give Jasper another kick to express his
frustration, he heard a man’s voice.
“How dare you beat up my friend in Solana City, my territory? You goddamn madcap!”
Landon rushed up to shield Jasper with furious eyes and knitted brows.
“Oh, look, here’s one more. How troublesome.” Axel narrowed his eyes and prepared to launch a
move when he froze. In front of him was the dark abyss of the gun barrel.
Landon had gotten a gun out of nowhere and pointed it at Axel’s head. “Stay away from me, or I’ll
blast your brains out!”
In reality, Landon was panicking on the inside. He had arrived at the scene when Jasper and Axel
were combating and concluded that he needed a weapon to take on Axel.
“Landy, don’t!” Each breath that Jasper took sent a paralyzing shot of pain to his stomach.
“Oh, crap! Bro, are you okay? He almost killed you. How could you ask me to spare him?”
Landon seethed at Axel. “Better get lost now if you want to live. Otherwise, I’m going to beat you
into a pulp. It’s a piece of cake for the Harper Family to wipe you off Solana City without anyone
knowing!”
However, Axel was unbothered by the threat and coldly stepped forward.
“Jasper, run now!” Landon growled and pulled the trigger with a thumping heart.
“Landon, stop!”
The gun fired with a loud pop.
