Chapter 120 Jasmine Ascends the Ranks

At lunchtime, Jasmine still hadn't been able to write her report. She wasn't sure what she should be focusing on.

A 3,000-word self-critique had stagnated at a mere hundred words, all echoing the same sentiment: "If the boss says I'm at fault, then I must be, even though I don't know what I did wrong."

"Mr. Douglas, aren't you going to lunch?" Jasmine asked cautiously, gently pushing the office door open to check on Ethan.

Ethan set aside his work, raising an eyebrow.

Daria had somehow managed to submit a 'self-critique' that greatly satisfied him in record time.

Inside the encrypted email was Daria's pledge of allegiance.

Carmen was the one who'd set up an inside person at the company ahead of time.

They were involved in every department.

Ethan knew Daria had a backup plan and hadn't given him the complete list of names, but what he got was enough.

As for the rest, he didn't care.

Seeing how Jasmine had just arrived and brought him a gift, Ethan decided to let it slide this time and take her out to lunch.

However, Jasmine's cell phone rang suddenly. She quickly stood up and hurried to the side to answer the call.

"What do you feel like for lunch?" Henry hadn't left San Francisco. He planned to head to Hawaii with Jasmine.

Jasmine bit her lip, hesitating, and declined. "Our company has a cafeteria." "Three minutes downstairs," Henry commanded, leaving no room for refusal.

"I'm not going," Jasmine asserted with newfound courage.

"Are you sure? The doctor mentioned that Justin's treatment requires my collaboration," Henry said sternly.

Jasmine felt the pressure on her lip intensify, the color draining from it.

He knew just how to manipulate her with Justin.

"You can't... you can't do this," Jasmine attempted to reason with Henry.

However, Henry wasn't a man to be reasoned with.
