Chapter 127 Evan Strikes Serena

Serena was stunned. Evan, her own brother, demanded she apologize to Jasmine?

"Brother..." Serena's voice was hoarse.

"Even if Jasmine owes you, you shouldn't slander her private life. Apologize to her, and we'll go home," Evan insisted.

Behind Ethan, Jasmine's gaze remained steadfast on him, still shaken by his words, trying to process what had just happened.

Six years... from when the scandal of the true and false heiress broke out to her imprisonment.

For six years, no one had ever spoken up for her objectively.

She was tongue-tied, rendered speechless by shock, and unable to articulate a satisfying answer no matter how hard she tried.

But Ethan, every word he spoke seemed to strike a chord in her heart, leaving her both shocked and moved.

It seemed like he expressed all her grievances more convincingly than she ever could. Tears loomed, but Jasmine resisted the urge to cry.

She used to cry when she was wronged, but now tears welled up because someone stood up for her.

"Why should I apologize to her? Her private life is a mess. Did I say anything wrong? Six years ago, at the Bellagio Hotel, she let a strange man into her room. It was a well- known incident, even covered by the media. Did I say anything wrong?" Serena yelled, out of control.

"Slap!"

Evan gave Serena a sharp slap across the face.

After he did it, even Evan was shocked-he had actually hit Serena.

The person he should have been slapping was himself.

His fingers trembled as his eyes reddened. Lowering his voice, he commanded, "Apologize, then come home with me!"

Serena, staring at Evan in shock, touched her cheek where he'd struck her.

Clearly, Serena was frightened by Evan as well.

The look in Evan's eyes was filled with anger and menace.

She knew Evan was aware of the truth about what happened six years ago-how she had sent someone to the hotel to bully Jasmine, and how she had brought Daniel and the media to catch Jasmine in a compromising situation and ruin her.

Evan knew all of it...

For a moment, Serena was afraid.

Over the years, Evan had spoiled her too much. He always allowed her to have her way, almost making her forget he knew all about what she had originally done.
