Chapter 863 Am I a Curse?
“Ms. Chloe... Can you pick me up please?” Jasper sobbed, his tears breaking Chloe's heart.
She asked worriedly, "Where are you? Did someone bully you?"
"I don't know where I am. Can I send you my location, Ms. Chloe?"
"Sure."
When Chloe received the location, she sped off toward it.
Frieda did not tag along for fear of exposing her identity. It was already considered a great help if she did not add to Joseph's troubles.
She told Chloe about Preston and Jonathan's visit, advising the latter to be careful. They must have something evil planned.
When Chloe arrived at the destination, she found herself at a deserted park. She bent down toward Jasper and asked, "How did you get here?” "Great Uncle Pres brought me. He told me my dad was here."
Jasper was wearing a private school uniform, its dark blue color gave off a noble and refined air. He also had a backpack on his shoulder. Worry and insecurity were etched into his frown lines.
Chloe did not know what to say. After some hesitation, she asked, “Have you read the news?” "Yes." Jasper raised his head and looked at her anxiously. "Is my dad dead?”
"No."
‘Is he alive?"
Chloe did not answer as she did not know. Although Jasper was smarter than others of his age. he was still a child. It was a miracle that he did not throw a tantrum after reading about his father's death
He was skeptical about it, and Preston took advantage of this.
Jasper's eyes welled up with tears at Chloe's silence, but he refused to let them fall. Chloe patted his back and looked upset toa.
"Did Preston leave you here?"
"Yes, I looked around but couldn't find my dad."
Jasper’s legs were numb and swollen from all that walking.
"Silly boy. He lied to you.”
Jasper lowered his head and cried.. His tears Yell to the ground, —
dampening it. "I know..." Though’ the chantes were slim, he had refused
ta. give up on it.

"Come on. I'll send you home. Harold will protect you, okay?” Chice tenderly wiped away his tears. As the only descendant of the Whitman family, Jasper was now in great danger.
"I don't want to go back. I'm afraid of losing my dad, Ms. Chloe. Will you help me look for him?" "Jasper—"
"I promise I'll be good from now on. I'll stop lying to you to get you to marry him. I just want my daddy."
The little boy failed to hold back his tears as fear overwhelmed him. He had already lost his mother. He did not want to lose his father too
A bitterness filled Chloe's heart and, her eyes turned watery. She mugged him and consoled him tenderly; ‘I don't know where to find hin either."
"What should I do? I'm afraid Daddy will die if I don't save him.” "No, he won't. God always blesses good people, and no news is good news."
"Really?" Jasper stopped crying
"Yes," Chige comforted him though. she knewsit was a lie. "Let's get ins the car. Youll catch a cold in this rains Joseph will be upset when he cofhes home and finds you sick."
"Okay." After getting into the car, Chloe toweled off his wet hair. He kept quiet and lowered his head obediently.
He looked up at her. "Ms. Chloe, am I a curse? Anyone who gets close to me is struck with bad luck.”
