Chapter 23 Is Justin Your Son?

Were they bullying Jasmine again?

Her disheveled hair and disarrayed clothes said it all: these people had inflicted some sick harm.

"Is this your idea of fun?" Tom's anger flared, and with a swift kick, he landed a blow on one of the men sitting nearby.

The man flared up. "What's your problem, Tom?"

As the two seemed ready to throw punches, the others interjected, "We're all friends here; don't wreck the peace."

"My ass! He kicks me over some girl!" Complained the offended entitled rich kid with an air of frustration.

Tom glanced at Daniel who sat in a corner with a stormy expression, silent.

Frowning, Tom shrugged off his jacket and draped it over Jasmine. "I'll take her out of here."

A group of trust fund babies started to tease, "Tom, you're quite the ladies' man, huh?" "You were at the hotel that night too, Tom. Don't tell me Jasmine's bastard is yours?" One of the rowdier guys jeered, barely dodging a punch from Tom.

Tom had a short fuse, and he was ready to swing.

Jasmine followed Tom numbly, trailing him out of the private room.

The corridor outside the bar was deafening; young people danced wildly in the club, the music booming.

Jasmine felt a ringing in her ears and staggered slightly.

Tom walked ahead without looking back at Jasmine even once.

Stopping at the restroom door, Tom pulled out a wet paper towel and passed it to Jasmine. "Wipe the blood off your face."

Jasmine paused, then instinctively touched her face, feeling the warm blood. The cut on her forehead had somehow reopened.

Taking the towel from Tom's hand, she dabbed at her face and asked in a quiet voice, "Was it you?"
