Chapter 119 Ethan Demanded Jasmine Write a Reflection

Daria's face turned ashen in an instant.

"Jasmine!"

Jasmine stepped back with her phone in hand while smiling at Daria. "Ms. Daria, it's a real pleasure to become colleagues."

Daria's hands were trembling.

Jasmine had outmaneuvered her, step by step, and now she'd spilled about Carmen's spy placed near Ethan.

"Mr. Howard, it's all a misunderstanding. It was only after a chat that I discovered there had been a mix-up during the staff handover. I made it clear in the training to forbid any peanuts, but somehow they got the impression Mr. Douglas loves peanuts, leading to this error." Daria hurriedly spoke, planning to pin the blunder on a scapegoat and
