Chapter 352 Annabelle Upsets Mrs. Everhart

Jasmine nervously glanced at Mrs. Everhart. "Do you mean that Alex has other considerations?"

"Yes, Annabelle has a wide network, and Howard has contacted Alex several times separately. This time, he might have to give them some face," Mrs. Everhart said somewhat reluctantly. "But I came to see you because I know you are capable. Maybe Alex has his considerations. After all, your project mirrors the Douglas family's. Alex won't back two identical ventures."

Jasmine nervously looked at Ethan who shook his head at her. "It's okay. Alex is a businessman who has been through a lot in the venture capital market over the years. He certainly has his considerations. Although Daniel and Annabelle's project is backed by Stellar Enterprises, being supported by a big company doesn't always guarantee high returns."

Jasmine nodded.

"Seeing you both reminds me of Alex and me when we were young. Back then, he came to Maple Grove with nothing. When I first saw him, he was working three jobs a day and serving drinks at a bar at night," Mrs. Everhart chuckled. "I was drawn to him because of his determination. I knew he was capable; gold always shines."

Mrs. Everhart looked at Ethan. "Ethan is a buried treasure, and Jasmine, your choice is right."

Jasmine held Ethan's hand. "Whether in poverty or wealth, I will steadfastly choose him. Even if his business fails, even if we need to leave San Francisco to develop in another city, I will always be by his side."

Ethan felt warm inside but also a bit worried. He mused, 'Is it possible not to get divorced then? What if my wonderful wife left?'

"Youth is truly wonderful," Mrs. Everhart smiled.

As Mrs. Everhart got up, Jasmine followed suit. "Mrs. Everhart, would you like to go shopping later? I can accompany you."

Mrs. Everhart nodded. "Since you're in Maple Grove, I'll definitely take you shopping. I like you; seeing you makes me feel close like you're my daughter."

Jasmine lowered her eyes, feeling a bit overwhelmed. "Thank you."

"The only regret Alex and I have in our lives is not having our child. We had a child when we were young, but the child died before birth, causing me to lose my uterus," Mrs. Everhart held Jasmine's hand. "I know I've wronged Alex. I suggested he have a child with another woman or even divorce me, but

refused."

She said, "He said he doesn't want children. He wants to spend his life with me alone."

"I've been with him through the toughest times, and he wants to be with me for the rest of his life. He says his heart is small; having me means he can't let anyone else in," Mrs. Everhart smiled and looked down.
