Chapter 155 Justin's Hair Used for a Secret Paternity Test

From the time Jasmine finished breakfast to when she took Justin to school, her mood seemed subdued.

She was preoccupied, lost in thought.

Ethan glanced at Jasmine and asked in a serious tone, "Are you feeling all right?"

Jasmine quickly shook her head. "No, it's not that..."

She was just worried about Richard.

Jasmine was acutely aware of the boundaries in her relationship with Ethan. There was

a line that couldn't be crossed, an understanding of limits.

Richard, on the other hand, was somewhat emotionally naive.

Once, Richard had a crush on a girl, but their potential romance was destroyed before it started when Serena publicly accused him of being lecherous and abusive.

Since then, Richard led a simple life, raising Justin alone. In all these five years, no one dared to set him up with anyone. Those who were interested lost their enthusiasm upon learning he had a child.

Richard had no interest in seeking a partner either. He had grown accustomed to his solitary life, his focus on Justin and his mother, who was still in prison.

Actually, Jasmine's five years in prison were a torment for Richard as well-a shared suffering, one inside the prison walls, and the other outside.

"Pull over here for a moment," Ethan instructed the driver to stop by the roadside.

The driver hesitated but quickly parked the car.

Ethan got out and bought a milkshake from a nearby shop.

Jasmine, surprised, hurried out of the car. "Mr. Ethan, you like milkshakes? I can buy it next time."

Ethan handed her the milkshake. "It's for you."

Holding the milkshake, Jasmine was at a loss.

He bought it for her.

Tears briefly welled in her eyes before she lowered her head and followed Ethan back into the car.

"I saw you add a lot of sugar into your coffee," Ethan speculated, "I figured you might like sweet things."
