Chapter 59 He Framed Jasmine and Sent Her to Prison

In the private room.

Ethan pushed open the door, his face a thundercloud as he stepped in.

The executives were partying hard, with beauties in their arms and companions by their sides—the atmosphere was one of decadent luxury.

Ethan's brow creased subtly as his cold gaze swept the room, but he did not spot Jasmine.

Somehow, he felt relieved.

"Which one of you is Emily?" Liam inquired.

The inebriated bigwigs didn't hear Liam's question.

Without hesitation, Liam turned on the lights and silenced the music, his voice firm. "Who's Emily?"

Being Ethan's assistant, Liam carried an air of superiority that went beyond that of a typical assistant. He had the right to be proud.

The bosses looked up at Liam with dissatisfaction. "Who are you..."

Someone's eyes finally focused clearly on Ethan, and they abruptly stood up, their head spinning, mistaking him for a hallucination. "Mr.... Mr. Douglas?"

Emily was equally taken aback as she rose to her feet. "Mr. Douglas?"

Ethan was a man all too familiar to the women of the night scene.

These bigwigs of the business district all recognized him on sight.

"Mr. Douglas! What brings you to Boston on such short notice? We could've made arrangements," the manager burst in from outside. "Mr. Douglas, what brings you..." Emily, nervous, couldn't help but gaze at Ethan-he was simply too handsome. Wealthy and influential, the kind of man no woman could refuse.

With a flirtatious smile, Emily softly inquired, "Mr. Douglas... Are you looking for me?"

"Where's Jasmine?" Ethan didn't have time for small talk. He frowned, stepping away from the approaching manager.

He despised women getting too close.

Liam quickly stepped between them, warding off any eager women. "Jasmine lives with you, right? Where is she?"

Emily paused, the realization slowly dawning on her.

Ethan belonged to the Douglas family.

He was Daniel's brother.

Given Ethan's demeanor, and knowing Jasmine had fled San Francisco...

"Mr. Douglas... What Jasmine? I'm not sure what you're talking about," Emily instinctively tried to protect her.

A frown creased Liam's brow. "Do you think we'd be here if we hadn't confirmed it?"
