Chapter 590: Has Richard Really Lost His Memory?

Deborah's face shifted a bit, and she threw on a smile, saying, "Ethan's got skills. He just bailed from the Raymond Group for some personal stuff. Hope y'all can keep an eye out for him."

The big shots nodded, giving Ethan the once-over. "Yeah, you got talent, but you're kinda reckless. That's why you climbed up just to crash down."

"You gotta chill out more. Maybe start at the bottom with us and work your way up." They acted like they were giving Ethan a shot, but really, they were just dissing him.

Deborah wanted these guys to keep Ethan down.

Ethan needed to hit rock bottom to see her worth.

"No need for that. My man can start his own gig, join the Cunningham Group, or even go back to the Douglas Group. No way he's gonna be a grunt at your place," Jasmine snapped, stepping in front of Ethan, clearly pissed.

These folks seriously underestimated them.

"Young folks are too cocky and don't know their place," one of them sneered, eyeing Jasmine. "Heard you even did time. The Cunningham family found you too late to set you straight."

Ethan's eyes went cold as he shielded Jasmine. "Horizon Innovations Group's been circling the drain for years, and you still think you can lecture us?"

With a cold chuckle, Ethan added, "Funny thing, the Harper family went down, and the cops found some stuff, but oops, some key info and docs went missing."

The two execs' faces turned dark, and they bailed.

Jasmine realized they were following Deborah's lead because of some dirt. Bad moves would catch up with them, and these guys were in for it.

Deborah felt guilty and tried to speak. "Ethan, you and the president of the Raymond Group..."

Ethan stayed silent, so Deborah tried again, "Ethan, I was just trying to help. I'm sorry." "Deborah, thanks for being considerate for my husband. If he needs help, I got him. We're married, so it's natural for me to step in. Your help might not be as effective since we're not that close, right?" Jasmine shot back, staring at Deborah.

Deborah took a deep breath. "My bond with Ethan is deeper than you think. We..."

Deborah hesitated and turned to Ethan. "Ethan, I really wanna help. No hidden agenda. She's got it twisted. We're good friends, been through a lot, right?"

Deborah wanted Ethan to back her up.
