Chapter 81 Ethan Refused Jasmine's Request

Ethan furrowed his brow, even if he was slow on the uptake, he understood what Jasmine meant.

He intended to use her as a shield.

She wanted him to be her sugar daddy.

To become his clandestine lover.

In truth, Jasmine wasn't naive. Once things got romantic between a man and a woman, it was hard to define their relationship.

Naturally, he had to protect her, Justin, and Richard, as it was a small matter within his capabilities.

"I didn't lie." Since Ethan was still remaining silent, Jasmine's eyes reddened. "Those rumors, they're not true. Besides Henry... there's no one else."

Furrowing his brow, Ethan picked up the test results and glanced at them; the results were from a hospital in Boston.

Clearly, Henry's assistant had taken her there for STD screenings.

To be honest, these tests were somewhat insulting.

"I won't touch one of Henry's women." Ethan tossed the test results onto the table. Jasmine lowered her head and tears began welling up in her eyes.

She just...

It was just that one time, and it was involuntarily. Would she have to bear a stigma for life?

"You don't need to resort to such methods. You have value to me, not in that way. I will protect you, Justin, and Richard, so you don't need to make these plans." Ethan spoke again.

Jasmine said nothing, feeling so ashamed she wanted to disappear into the ground.

She tried to temporarily bind Ethan with these means, but he simply wasn't interested in her.

He might even... be disgusted by the thought of touching her.
