Chapter 36 Life

Stellar Enterprises.

"Mr. Douglas, these are the findings of the investigation concerning Jasmine. Please take a look; it's quite a mess," Liam said as he handed the documents to Ethan.

The first, her shining era as the Wilson family heiress, was marked not only by academic excellence and innate talent but a long list of awards and honors. She had even been accepted into Stanford University with the highest score.

Romantically, life was smooth sailing throughout high school, where she dated Daniel, and they were blessed by their parents.

However, her life took a nosedive from its peak into an abyss-not just any abyss, but hell itself.

With the true Wilson family heiress's return, Jasmine, the counterfeit, became a pariah, vilified by all, tumbling from her pedestal into abysmal depths.

First, she was cast out by the Wilsons, followed by scandalous headlines that tarnished her reputation. Next, she was disgracefully discarded from her engagement by the Douglas family, earning the scorn of the masses.

Then came an unexpected pregnancy, further sullying her name, as she endured crushing pressure yet, she remained determined to have the child.

Upon the child's birth, she was ruthlessly taken to court by the united front of Evan and Daniel.

She ended up being sentenced to five years for extortion, of all things.
