Chapter 188: Show No Mercy

"Do you think you can use her to make me speak? Go ahead. Do whatever you want to her. I don't care," Jasper said, his face hard and holding no glimpse of emotion but Lauren wasn't buying it.

The last time they met she saw how irked he was when she mentioned Thalia. She even believed he wasn't supposed to give her a hint that he was the one behind the chaos at Haystone's mansion, but because of his annoyance, he gave himself away. That's why she knew this whole act was only a ruse.

"Are you sure? No matter if I skin her alive in front of you?"

She still didn't get any reaction from Simon. She smirked and gave Alec a meaningful look. Alec then turned his head toward the steel bar door where a guard was standing and said, "Bring the Queen Dowager here."

Lauren looked at Jasper and saw how his eyebrows furrowed in the slightest bit, letting her know she was right. He was only trying to act like he didn't care so they would leave Thalia alone. What a pity.
