Chapter 71 Will Henry Choose Jasmine?

"Henry, I've never intended for us to get married." Jasmine smiled somewhat forcedly as tears stubbornly swirled in her eyes. "Just hide me away. Hide me well, and I'll be very obedient. As long as you agree to annul the engagement and are willing to publicly acknowledge that Zelda is guilty."

Henry gave Ben a cold look and remained silent.

Ben lowered his head, feeling his heart ache.

If Henry didn't annul the engagement, the Patrick family would definitely get involved

in these matters; after all, rumors about the Brown family would also be detrimental to the Patrick family.

If Henry intervened in Zelda's affairs, Jasmine would definitely not be able to accept it.
