Chapter 603: Who Wants to Take Justin Away?

In the Douglas Group's underground parking lot, Bradley was walking to his car. As a workaholic, he burnt the midnight oil again.

Worn out and haunted by nightmares since Leah's death, he rubbed his temples as he made his way to his car.

Out of nowhere, blinding headlights and screeching brakes jolted him. Before he could even process what was happening, he got yanked into a car, his mouth and nose covered, and a hard kick to the gut.

As he blacked out from the pain, he managed to hit redial on his phone, praying someone would figure out he was being snatched.

"Don't kill him. Claire wants him breathing."

"Man, he's got such a baby face. Softer than a girl's."

"Dudes like him can't handle much. Ease up on the kicks."

"Claire wants pics sent to Howard to freak him out."

Ben trailed Jasmine back to the office, juggling the new energy project details.

"Ian's a tough cookie. He won't play dirty like Daniel and Annabelle, but even playing fair, we might not stand a chance," Ben quietly warned.

Even though Ian was the competition, he played by the rules, and this new energy gig was his first big shot at SHC Group, so he was gonna give it everything.

Jasmine nodded. "Got it. He's in survival mode at SHC Group, needing results to keep the bigwigs who backed Henry in check."

So yeah, Ian was no pushover.

"Ian's slick. He's a pro at playing innocent. Tomorrow's the first bid for the Everhart Group. Whatever Ian pitches, don't buy it as his final move," Ben seriously reminded Jasmine.

Jasmine nodded, finally getting why Ethan had hired Ben. The guy really had Ian pegged.
