Chapter 132 Ethan Drunk and Taken by Harper

Standing worriedly in place, Jasmine hurriedly called Liam. "Liam, Mr. Douglas has had a bit too much to drink. Miss Harper and the secretary drove him back, and I've bought some pills for him. I'm taking a cab back now; could you meet me?"

"Jasmine, I'm not at the hotel; Mr. Douglas sent me to handle some business in Lynnwood. I won't be back until tomorrow morning," Liam said, sounding concerned. "Take a cab back quickly."

Jasmine tried to hail a cab, but it was hard to find one by the roadside.

Growing anxious, she started running toward the hotel.

After about a five-minute dash, Jasmine finally managed to hail a cab.

"Driver, to the Bellagio Hotel, please. Could you hurry?"

The driver was responsive and took off as soon as he hit the accelerator

After paying the fare, Jasmine rushed into the hotel and toward the elevator.

"Good evening, ma'am, are you a guest of ours? We need to verify your identity. Could you please bring your ID to the Receptionist for a check?"

Jasmine froze momentarily. Despite not having stayed in a hotel for six years and being practically cut off from society during her time in prison, she knew well that a hotel would not ask guests to re-verify their identities.

Clearly, someone was deliberately trying to delay her.

"I have my room key," Jasmine said, showing the card briefly to the person.

"Sorry, but we need to check your ID."

"My ID is in my room," Jasmine replied, her anxiety growing as she tried to leave.

"Sorry, but if you can't provide an ID, we can't let you leave. We're strictly monitoring for solicitation, and you don't exactly look respectable," the hotel Receptionist said with a sneer.

Jasmine was furious, but she was in no mood to argue. "Go ahead and call the police, then."

With that, she turned to enter the elevator.

But the receptionist, visibly angry, grabbed Jasmine's arm. "Our manager has given instructions-you're not allowed in. Have you no shame? Everyone knows what you're here for. If you have any dignity left, leave now."

"And what am I here for?" Jasmine asked, looking at them.

"Aren't you just an escort? Why the pretense?" The receptionist rolled her eyes dismissively.
