Chapter 493 Team Up Against Betty

"He might treat you well, Jasmine, but I'll love you better. You deserve to be treated

with respect, always. Past kindness doesn't excuse bad behavior."

Ethan was usually rational, except when it came to Jasmine.

Jasmine opened her mouth but stayed silent.

Aleah and Brade were on the phone at the coffee shop.

"Don't rush to see Sophia yet. Follow my instructions first," Brade reminded Aleah.

Aleah gripped her phone nervously. "Mr. Hughes, Betty is kind of scary."

"Scared? Richard's identity might be complicated," Brade said impatiently.

"No, it's just..." Aleah's breathing tightened. "I'll listen to you, but this probably won't do any harm to Betty. The police will investigate."

"Just do your part. Don't worry about the rest. My target is Richard, not Betty," Brade said calmly.

Aleah was scared but hung up and chased after Betty.

Outside, Betty was waiting for her driver and bodyguard.

Aleah approached Betty and suddenly pulled out a knife.

She played with the knife and sneered, "You can't beat me."
