Chapter 109 Ethan Let Jasmine Borrow His Influence

Long-time employees like Daria often rested on their laurels, exuding a deep-seated arrogance from their tenure at the company. They weren't easily shaken by minor incidents.

To pull Daria closer to Ethan, Jasmine understood she had to seriously shake her up, to chip away at her pride.

"When do you plan to use me?" Ethan remembered Jasmine asking him about his peanut allergy.

"Tom... tomorrow," Jasmine replied, still showing traces of fear. "Don't worry, Mr. Douglas, I'll have the anti-allergy medicine ready ahead of time to ensure you're safe."

Ethan smiled. "I'm looking forward to your show of loyalty."

Jasmine nodded vigorously, her head bowed.

"Come on, let's get you acquainted with the company."

Jasmine was dumbfounded as Ethan began to personally show her around. Instead of

a simple tour, this felt like parading her around, borrowing his influence.

As Ethan's assistant, Jasmine would inevitably have to interact with various

departments, and he knew they wouldn't make it easy for her. To increase her

efficiency, he had to establish her authority first.

Jasmine's palms felt warm, and the fingers she habitually clenched slowly relaxed. She cautiously followed behind Ethan, stealing glances at him.

Ethan had an inherent aloofness and detachment as if nothing mattered to him.

Jasmine once thought Ethan was heartless. She recalled hiding from him during her teens when visiting the Douglas family. Since Daniel feared Ethan, she did too.

But seeing him now, Ethan didn't quite match the rumors. He was cold, yet not without principles.

She needed to work harder. Being valuable to Ethan was essential. That way, even if their 'marriage of convenience' ended, she could still become his most trusted aide.

"Mr. Douglas, your schedule's looking pretty tight. Your usual Saturday off might have to be shelved this week because of that Sunday meeting with Overstorm Interactive in Hawaii," Jasmine mentioned when she caught a moment with Ethan.

"Didn't Liam say we can leave early Sunday morning and still make it?" Ethan asked casually.

"That's true, Mr. Douglas, but it's Stellar Enterprises' first collaboration with Overstorm Interactive, and this project in Hawaii is crucial for our future expansion into Hawaii markets."

Jasmine was articulate and confident when discussing work.
