Chapter 148 Is Henry Seizing the Chance to Take Justin Away?

"Henry!"

The door opened, and Henry walked in with his assistant, only to be met with a

disheveled Zelda lunging at him.

With a frown, Henry instinctively dodged Zelda.

"Henry, they're bullying me," Zelda cried, clinging to Henry's arm. "She hit me, knowing I'm your fiancee, she still hit me."

Zelda pointed at Erin leaning on Richard, with a tattling demeanor.

Erin straightened up and smiled at Henry. "Got beaten up in a fight so you're calling your boyfriend to help?"

Henry didn't look at Erin; his gaze fell on Jasmine.

Shaking off Zelda's grip, he stepped forward. "What's going on? Why are you at the hospital?"

Jasmine looked down, silent.

Grabbing Jasmine's wrist, Henry quickly checked her over to make sure she was unharmed before he allowed himself to breathe easy.

Henry had thought Jasmine would be in Hawaii tonight, so he had let his guard down since Zelda had returned to San Francisco. Knowing Zelda's temperament, she was bound to make trouble for Jasmine.

"Did she lay a hand on you?" Henry asked, his voice deepening with concern when Jasmine remained silent.

"Justin... They hurt Justin." Jasmine instinctively moved away from Henry, seeking refuge behind Ethan.

Ethan's expression was dark and menacing as he glared at Henry. He didn't consider Daniel to be much of a threat, but Henry was a different story. Ethan had reasons to be wary of him.

Henry had proven to be a formidable competitor at the mall and had also gained an early advantage with Jasmine. The fact that Justin shared blood ties with Henry fueled a murderous jealousy within Ethan.

It was only now that Henry realized Ethan was holding Justin in his arms.
