Chapter 608: Howard is a Jerk

Ethan shot a look at Brandon; Jasmine had nailed it.

"Claire, scared stiff of dying, and the only one she trusts is Mark." Jasmine whispered. "If they're sneaking around, it's way more than just an affair."

"The patient pulled through, vitals are stabilizing, but he needs ICU time for a bit," the doc said, giving a quick rundown of the surgery.

Brandon let out a big sigh, leaning against the wall.

At least he didn't kick the bucket.

Ethan also exhaled, eyeing the recording in his hand. "I owe him one this time."

Jasmine nodded. If it wasn't for Bradley, they wouldn't expect that Claire had some crucial dirt.

"Howard's assistant, Mark, and Claire are from the same small town. They've probably been fooling around forever, and Howard didn't even catch on," Brandon sneered.

"It's not that he didn't catch on. He just didn't give a damn. You can see it too. Howard just used Claire. He didn't care if she was seeing other guys because the only woman he ever cared about was Leah, who died right in front of him," Ethan said, his voice cold.

"This is his punishment," Jasmine said, squeezing Ethan's hand.

As soon as Ethan got to the office, Liam yanked him aside. "We've got trouble. The folks you fired, Howard and Claire's crew, are making a scene. They say if you don't fix this, they'll sue for wrongful termination, and now they're messing up our operations." Firing a bunch of people without replacements was bound to stir the pot.

Ethan smirked like he saw it coming.

"Mr. Douglas, there's a ruckus over there," a senior exec rushed over, looking frazzled.

In the lobby, someone was leading the chaos.

"Ethan needs to explain why he canned us out of nowhere. If he doesn't, we'll take him to court."

"Yeah, sue him!"
