Chapter 125 Ethan Tears into the Saintly Pretender

Jasmine tensed and swung around to face Ethan.

It was staggering to hear Ethan, of all people, insult someone without a curse. His nonchalant demeanor unexpectedly made him look undeniably cool.

Ethan was the epitome of the authoritative CEO aloof, sophisticated, and untouchable. He always seemed elevated above mere mortals, shrouded in an enigmatic aura.

For the first time, Jasmine felt as if she had a powerful ally behind her. It was as if her personal guardian deity was standing just over her shoulder.

Daniel's fingers tightened into fists as he spoke in a low voice. "Bro, this is a family matter."

Ethan stood upright, glancing at Serena. "It's not an issue that you missed twenty years of upbringing isn't the issue. It's about conscience, something intrinsic. Any sensible person should know that this is an office, a place of work, not your personal playground for tantrums."

Ethan's imposing presence silenced Serena's outburst. She stood, frozen in panic.

Daniel stepped in to shield Serena. "This is my fiancée. You have no idea what she's been through. You don't have the right to judge her."

"My people are not yours to criticize," Ethan countered, moving in front of Daniel. "Keep your lady in check. If you don't have a kidney, it won't kill you, but if you don't have any brains, you'll be manipulated... and that's Pa true tragedy."

Ethan didn't need to guess what had happened. Someone had clearly provoked Serena.

Serena was gullible and easily manipulated.

"Ladies and gentlemen," interjected Liam as he stepped forward to address Daniel and Serena, "this is an office. Your behavior is unbecoming, and Mr. Howard wouldn't appreciate this scene either." He gestured for Daniel and Serena to leave.

Serena took cover behind Daniel, her eyes bearing a grudge as she watched Jasmine. 'Why does Ethan have to shield her like that?' Serena thought.

"Ethan, are you saying Jasmine is your girl? You've been with her? She's supposed to be Daniel's fiancée. Does that seem right to you? Spreading that around won't sound too good, will it?" Serena's voice dripped with sarcasm, loud enough for the whole office to hear. "Besides, Tom is your cousin, right? I've heard that those guys Tom hangs with, Oscar and Logan, have been with Jasmine. Doesn't that bother you?"

Jasmine's breathing turned ragged as she looked at Ethan, her eyes brimming with tears. She wanted to explain.

For the first time, she desperately wanted to justify herself.

Before she met Ethan, she didn't care and never bothered to defend herself no matter how much Serena and the others maligned her. She let them talk.

However, panic was setting in now that she was front of Ethan. She wanted to make things clear. She didn't want him to find her repulsive, to see her as tainted.

However, her voice failed her as she struggled to find the words.
