Chapter 107 Jasmine Became Ethan's Personal Assistant

"Ma'am, you're awake."

At 7:30 in the morning, Nanny woke Jasmine up.

Startled, Jasmine sat up, looking anxiously around her.

When had she come back?

Did Ethan carry her?

"Where... Where is Mr. Douglas?" Jasmine whispered.

"He's in the dining room," Nanny replied with a smile.

Jasmine got out of bed nervously and rushed to wash up before running out, muttering, "Sor... sorry."

"Time for breakfast," Ethan spoke indifferently, his expression unchanged.

Sitting down with her head bowed, Jasmine noticed that the bite marks on her fingers had been treated and were now covered with a bandage.

"Mr. Douglas, about your partnership in New York..." Jasmine started hesitantly.

"This afternoon, no rush." Ethan noticed Jasmine tended to bite herself when nervous, whether her hand or her lip.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to cause you trouble," Jasmine said, feeling guilty.

"Then stay away from Henry," Ethan replied with disdain as he put down his coffee cup.

Jasmine couldn't figure Ethan out, unsure if he was angry or not.

She wanted to apologize again, but Ethan spoke first, "Eat."

Tears welled up in Jasmine's eyes as she nodded.

Once Justin's situation stabilized, she planned to leave as soon as possible, not wanting to be a burden to Ethan any longer.

After finishing her silent meal, Jasmine wanted to head to the office.

"This is for you." Ethan slid a new phone across the table to Jasmine.
