Chapter 136

Panicked at the thoughts, Jasmine stepped forward with her clenched fists and protested, “Shane, you can’t do this to me. Five years ago, you said you would give me everything I wanted, but now...”

The man interrupted her, leaning back against his chair. “Yes, I said that because you saved my life. But I’ve done more than enough to repay you. Recently, everything you do crosses the limits, and I can’t tolerate you any longer. Do you understand?”

“I...” Jasmine’s lips moved, but her voice was stuck in her throat.

Standing in front of the door, Natalie furrowed her beautiful brows in suspicion.

This isn’t the first time I hear Shane say that Jasmine saved him five years ago. What exactly happened between them?

While she was deep in thought, Shane’s voice broke her out of her trance. “That’s enough. I hope you’ll behave yourself from now on. You may leave.”

Jasmine’s eyes dropped, covering up all the indignation in her gaze. She then walked toward the door reluctantly.

Walking through the door, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Natalie standing outside the office with a faraway look. Taken aback, she yelled angrily, “What the hell are you doing here?”

Snapped out of her reverie, Natalie gave the woman a half-smile. “It’s been a while, Ms. Jasmine.”

The woman snorted scornfully. “I’ve already been fired, yet you address me this way. Are you mocking me?”
