Chapter 654 Everyone Wants to Know If Ethan Is Dead

Connor glanced at the unconscious Jasmine. "Who took Justin?"

"The kindergarten teacher said Justin mentioned his uncle was picking him up. He also told Joe he wouldn't be back home tonight and to reassure Grandma not to fret. Then he left. I tried reaching Ian, but no luck," Ben said, clearly frustrated.

What was Ian up to? Taking Justin again, even after Jasmine had warned him.

"Ian." Connor frowned. "Justin's a smart kid. If Ian took him so openly, he probably isn't

in immediate danger. Let's get Jasmine to the hospital first."

Connor handed Jasmine over to Ben. "I'll go find Ian."

Ben was momentarily stunned, taking Jasmine with a stiff posture.

To Ben, Jasmine was always out of reach. Even now, seeing her like this made his heart ache.

He felt Jasmine was barely holding on, pretending to be strong and tough.

When no one was around, she seemed almost broken.

"Pray that Ethan is safe and comes back soon," Ben whispered.

"Is she okay?" Tom, also worried, rushed over to help carry Jasmine to the car, but Connor pushed him away.

Tom, confused, looked at Connor. "Why'd you push me?"

Connor frowned, a bit disdainful. "Don't touch her. You're not good enough."

Tom got angry, pointing at himself. "Me, not good enough? And you are?"

Connor ignored Tom's outburst and instructed Ben. "Take good care of her. Don't tell her about Justin for now. I'll find Ian and bring him back safely."

Ben nodded.

Tom was furious. "That guy is nuts!"

Ben carried Jasmine into the car and looked at Tom. "Let's go to the hospital. Start the car."

Tom turned to Ben. "Am I better than him? Do I have longer legs than he does?"

Ben, a bit exasperated, nodded. "Yes, your legs are longer."
