CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

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...”

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

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