Chapter 398: | Was Never Your Daughter
After settling Courtney, Tina received a message from Cole.
"Serena, Jasper has found Callum Maguire and Snow judd!"
Tina's red lips curved into a smile.
Jasper was not idle at all; after obtaining the potion, he went to clean house. He truly was a loyal dog of GTO.
Tina looked up with interest at Jared, her voice tinged with allure, "Uncle, there's a good show. Want to watch it
together?"
Jared's thin lips curved slightly, "Sure."
In the suburbs of Ashbury, in a certain village.
Callum Maguire and Snow Judd disguised themselves as local villagers and had been hiding here, not daring to
show their faces. Whether Tina and Jared would continue to hunt them down was uncertain. Just Mr. Kim alone
was enough to instill fear in them.
Their betrayal of the organization had clearly been exposed; if found, they would surely die.
They managed a farm where people often cfor agritourism, blending into the community perfectly. Who
would have thought that these simple farmers were trained killers by GTO?
A black SUV stopped in front of the farm, guests who had booked days earlier.
Callum Maguire, dressed plainly and wearing a straw hat, carried a basket of apples to greet them.
"Mr. Reed?" Callum Maguire opened the gate and scrutinized the man before him.
It was indeed Jasper, the missing head of the Reed family.
Even though Callum Maguire and Snow Judd were hiding here, they kept abreast of city happenings. Otherwise,
any slight disturbance could prevent their escape in time.

They hadn't expected that the agritourism booking from a few days ago would actually be from Jasper.
Jasper smiled warmly, his every gesture exuding grace. Dressed in a black trench coat over an exquisite suit, he
appeared even more gentle.
"Yes, | called a few days ago." Jasper smiled slightly, his voice carrying a hint of spring breeze.
Callum Maguire lowered his guard.
Jasper was the head of the Reed family; his previous investigations revealed that the Reed family did not possess
any potions. Even if they did, they were enemies of the organization and not considered dangerous individuals.
Snow Judd emerged from the house wearing a floral shirt common among village women, holding a fan and
smiling naively. "Mr. Reed, your room is ready. Shall we go fishing by the sea later?"
Jasper nodded and followed Callum Maguire inside with his hands in his pockets. But as he reached the door, he
suddenly paused.
"The air here is quite nice."
Callum Maguire smiled, "Yes, it's like this in the village."
Jasper tilted his head and looked sinisterly at Callum Maguire. "I just wonder if it's easy to lose one's life here!"
Callum Maguire froze for a moment and reached into his basket for his gun. But before he could draw it out,
Jasper had already pulled the trigger.
A muffled gunshot rang out; blood flowed from Callum Maguire's shoulder. Fortunately, he dodged quickly.
Snow Judd reacted by swinging her fan, which revealed a sharp knife at its end aimed at Jasper. Jasper kicked her
away and fired two shots; Snow Judd fell to the ground with bullets in her legs, unable to stand. Jasper sat on a
wicker chair in the yard, carefully wiping his gun barrel.
"Trying to ambush me? Have you forgotten who tested your ambush skills?"
Joining GTO required not only passing ability tests but also being proficient in killing!
Callum Maguire stared at Jasper in shock. "You... you're Mr. Kim!"
Jasper extended his hand and aimed his gun at Callum Maguire's forehead. "Killing you doesn't require dirtying
Mr. Kim's hands."
Callum Maguire realized that the Mr. Kim they had met was just an imposter!
Suddenly, Jasper's gaze turned fierce. "The consequence of betraying the organization is death!"
Bang!
Callum Maguire thought he was dead for sure; Snow Judd trembled with fear. But surprisingly, it was Jasper who
got shot!
Tina walked in from the gate with a mocking smile on her face. "Mr. Reed, long tno see."
Jasper clutched his hand; the bullet had pierced through it, rendering him powerless to fight back.
He looked at Tina coldly and asked, "How did you find this place?"
Tina twirled her gun before handing it to Jared behind her. She still preferred using needles; guns had too much
recoil!
Tina stepped forward and looked down at Jasper with disdain. "Who do you think told you their hiding place?"
Jasper was shocked! It turned out Tina was fishing for him all along!
A group of officers in police uniforms swarmed into the yard; Callum Maguire and Snow Judd were taken away
while everyone else surrounded Jasper.
Jasper sneered at Tina. "The matters between us should be settled by ourselves."
Tina looked at Jasper with undisguised contempt. "Mr. Reed, what do you have that my mother would ever find
appealing?"
A pang of pain hit Jasper's heart.

Indeed! Natalie never cared for him.
Tina's bright smile was filled with hatred like a sharp knife piercing through an invincible heart. "I was never your
daughter; shouldn't you have known that long ago?" Jasper gritted his teeth hard.
He hadn't expected Tina to tear apart his long-held illusion so mercilessly and expose his festering wounds while
sprinkling salt on them.
"I know." Jasper raised his gun again and aimed it at Tina. "I knew from the beginning that you were never my
daughter."
Seeing this, Jared stepped in front of Tina and stared coldly at Jasper.
Tina pushed Jared aside and said, "Is lying to yourself fun?"
Jasper chuckled bitterly. "Tina, you really are like your mother."
At that moment, Jasper pulled the trigger; Jared shielded Tina with his body but no bullet ctheir way.
With a bang, smoke filled the yard followed by an engine starting up.
Jared frowned. "Chase him!"
Everyone rushed out of the yard after the black SUV.
Jared aimed three shots at its tires; eventually it veered off into the sea ahead and sank rapidly...
Jared and Tina reached the shore watching as calm returned to the sea.
Taking a deep breath Jared's handsface turned grim as he ordered sternly: "Dive down! We need either him
alive or his corpse."
His expression darkened like charcoal; despite being surrounded by X Bureau agents they still let Jasper escape-a
direct challenge to X Bureau's authority!
If not for worrying about Tina getting hurt by Jasper's gun earlier he wouldn't have given him this chance either!
