Chapter 73 Jasmine Called Ethan for Help

The headlights of several cars were fixed on Jasmine, making it hard for her to keep her eyes open.

While clutching the fruit knife concealed in her sleeve, Jasmine trembled as she backed away.

She wanted to run, but her legs felt heavy. The situation was spiraling out of control.

She could have called Henry for help.

But she chose not to.

She didn't want to cause more trouble for Henry.

"Jasmine, you're quite something," Daniel's eyes were filled with disappointment, and his tone was dripping with sarcasm. "I can't believe Henry stooped this low."

Numbly, Jasmine withdrew, making an effort to ignore Daniel's sarcasm.

"Jasmine, I told you to stay away," Evan said, lighting a cigarette and leaning against the car.

Daniel approached Jasmine slowly, each step signaled impending danger.

Jasmine felt like she had been plunged into an icy abyss.

"You really had Zelda sent to the police station; I underestimated you," Daniel sneered as he reached out to grab Jasmine by the hair and pulled her towards one of the cars. "Inside the car, an elegant woman with icy eyes looked at Jasmine with disdain. "Speak up, how much money will make you drop the case?"

Jasmine's whole body was trembling. "Assault is a crime; it's... it's against the law..." Zelda's mom sneered. "Jasmine Wilson, do you think I'm here to negotiate with you?" Jasmine tightly gripped the knife handle. "My name is not Jasmine Wilson... My surname is Avery."

Next to them, Evan's hand, holding the cigarette butt, momentarily stiffened.

He glanced at Jasmine subconsciously, wanting to say something. His throat moved, but no words escaped his lips.

"Three million, is that enough?" Zelda's mom frowned.

"No..." Jasmine winced in pain, her voice becoming hoarser by the second.

"Hmm, not enough?" Zelda's mom got out of the car and looked at Daniel. "She's not listening; what can you do?"

"To deal with a woman like her, we need to use other methods. She's already with Henry; she won't care about three million," Daniel smirked sarcastically as he dragged Jasmine and pushed her into the car.

"Daniel, I leave this matter to you. Don't kill her and make sure she drops the case before the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce banquet ends tomorrow," Zelda's mom looked at Daniel.

Daniel nodded. "Alright."

Jasmine held onto her phone, trying to call the police discreetly.

Evan noticed Jasmine trying to use the phone. He furrowed his brow, but he didn't stop her.

However, Daniel saw it, snatched Jasmine's phone, and threw it out of the car window. "Trying to call Henry? He doesn't have time to save you now," Daniel leaned back in his seat, rubbing his temples frantically. "Jasmine, don't you know you have nowhere to run?"

Jasmine curled up under the car seat and held herself tightly, unsure of what Daniel intended to do.
