Chapter 166 Harper Plants a Virus on Ethan's Computer

"Mr. Ethan, what are you looking for?" Jasmine saw that Ethan was searching for something and walked over to ask.

"Nothing," Ethan muttered under his breath as he hastily stashed the photograph into the safe, clearing his throat. "Could you head to the finance department and get the last quarter's reports for me?"

Jasmine nodded blankly and left the office.

Once Jasmine had left, Ethan exhaled a sigh of relief. He had never felt so guilty in his life...

The resemblance between Justin and his younger self was uncanny.

Rubbing the bridge of his nose, Ethan stood up and walked out of his office.

"Liam, keep an eye on Jasmine. If she goes to the restroom, I want you waiting outside, and keep Daniel away from her," Ethan instructed, pointing a finger at Liam. "Bring your head in the game."

Scratching his head, Liam asked, "Where are you off to? Shouldn't I be driving you?"

"I'm driving myself. If Jasmine asks, tell her I had to deal with a last-minute contract. I'll pick up Justin on my way back, and make sure you drive her home after work," Ethan rushed through his instructions and hurried off.

Liam snorted. He had practically become Jasmine's shadow, prompting him to question whose assistant he truly was.

But he didn't mind. It was better than getting a tongue-lashing from Ethan. He had been getting chewed out by Ethan since childhood, and now here he was, still on the receiving end. Life could be so darn tough...

"Liam," called a voice from outside the door. Harper stood there, her eyes reddened, calling him in a gentle, frail voice.

Liam swiftly stood up, regarding Harper with a look of concern. "Harper, are you here to see Mr. Ethan?"

"No, I came to see Jasmine," she said softly.

Liam glanced around. "I'm sorry, Jasmine might be tied up with work. Maybe... wait a bit?"
