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."

If he did this, he would give up her body and soul.

Henry reached out and pulled Jasmine into his arms, holding her tightly.

"Jasmine, give me some time to consider."

Jasmine nodded and continued to sit numbly.

Outside the examination room, Henry's face was grim. He repeatedly watched the video of Jasmine being bullied five years ago.

"Mr. Patrick, take this opportunity to annul the engagement with the Brown family," Ben spoke softly.

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.
