Chapter 226: Jasmine is the CEO's Wife

"Mr. Douglas," Jasmine got into the car, feeling a bit nervous.

Is Ethan angry with her?

"You were fired, weren't you?" Ethan reminded Jasmine.

Jasmine made an "oh" sound and then realized.

"What should I call you then?" Ethan asked with a gloomy face.

"Well... I can't always call you that," Jasmine felt embarrassed by that title.

"Too awkward?" Ethan was not pleased. "Or am I not worthy?"

"No, it's not like that." Jasmine quickly waved her hand, anxiously looking at her hands. "Are you angry at me?"

Ethan sighed, pulled Jasmine over, and kissed her in retaliation. "Why would I be angry?"

Jasmine blushed and looked around in panic, they were at the school gate... luckily there weren't many people.

"...Did Nolan Cunningham come to see you?" Jasmine asked softly.

"Have you become too arrogant? Contacting Nolan Cunningham behind my back?"

Ethan held Jasmine's hand with one hand and drove with the other.

"It's just... cooperation," Jasmine secretly glanced at Ethan and explained. "The Cunningham's Family wants to establish themselves in San Francisco, and collaborating with Stellar Enterprises would be a long-term solution."

"So you sold me?" Ethan gritted his teeth. "Do you know what your actions are called? Human trafficking."

Jasmine looked at Ethan, shocked. What did she do that was human trafficking?

"Mrs. Cunningham's biological daughter still hasn't been found. They gave, they gave me a year's time. I thought a year would be enough for you," Jasmine explained again. "Nolan Cunningham is an idiot?" Ethan couldn't believe that Nolan Cunningham would let Jasmine go so easily. "What else did you promise him?"

"Just, just... to be his assistant, help him, secure the Stardust Village project," Jasmine lowered her head, her voice getting quieter.

Ethan slammed on the brakes and stopped at the side of the road.

The Stardust Village project was under the responsibility of the Wilson family, with Evan as the main person in charge.

Did Jasmine plan to compete with Evan for the project?
