Chapter 48 Ending the Partnership

"Jasmine... doesn't know either?" Liam pondered how chaotic one's personal life must be not to know the identity of their child's father.

"It's all thanks to you, isn't it? How this child came to be, why Jasmine ended up in a stranger's bed - your families, the Douglases and the Wilsons, should know better. To ruin a woman, you've stopped at nothing, and now you have the nerve to ask about the child's father," Richard spat in anger.

"Mr. Richard, you're gravely mistaken about Mr. Douglas. Our family has done nothing to you and would never stoop to such actions," Liam retorted defensively on behalf of Ethan.

"And you expect me to believe that even if Jasmine was set up to have Justin, she wouldn't know who the man was?" Liam asked, disbelieving.

Richard couldn't be bothered to explain any further and turned to find Justin.

Ethan furrowed his brow; they were siblings indeed. Richard and Jasmine shared the same stubborn streak.

"Stellar Enterprises runs a charity foundation, and Justin's situation qualifies for aid; Liam's already handling it. After this, his treatment at the hospital will be on the house," Ethan said nonchalantly.

Richard paused, his voice dropping to a whisper, "We don't need Douglas family handouts... I'll pay you back within two months, thank you, Mr. Douglas."

With that, Richard carried Justin out.
