When She Stops Playing Nice

Chapter 252

Chapter 252
She was worn out from dealing with this tedious relationship.
“Alright, this won’t happen again in the future,” Gabriel said gently.
At Blossom Grand Hotel. “Ashley!” Jasmine exclaimed with excitement upon seeing Ashley Jackson. “I can’t believe you came back to visit me.” she said, deeply touched.
That wasn’t why she returned; Ashley did not say it explicitly. Looking at Jasmine with concern, she sighed. “My poor Jasmine.”
Jasmine felt even more aggrieved and said, “Ashley, do you remember who I am? You once said you would arrange a marriage for me with Gabriel
“Of course I remember, and I still think that way.” Ashley reassured her. “But how is your recovery going? There won’t be any lasting injuries, right?” It wouldn’t be ideal to bring a daughter-in-law with disabilities into the Jackson family.
Jasmine hadn’t understood the underlying meaning in Ashley’s words, but her mother, Hannah, did. “No, no, don’t worry. Jasmine’s treatment is arranged at Prover Hospital, which has top-notch international medical resources. The doctors have assured us that Jasmine is recovering well and won’t be left with any lasting injuries,” she explained. After finishing her explanation, Hannah felt a sense of foreboding, realizing that by praising Prover Hospital, she also inadvertently praised
Gina
Ashley didn’t notice these subtleties. What caught her attention were the varying depths of scars on Jasmine’s face. “Will these scars ever heal?”
Due to Jasmine’s multiple fractures and the focus of her treatment being on her body, coupled with Hannah’s reassurances and the advancement of medical aesthetics, there was no need to worry about scars remaining on her face. Jasmine shifted her focus to recuperating her body, considering she spent most of her days in bed, even if her face was unscathed, it was still difficult for her to muster the courage to see Gabriel.
“It’s possible. I’ll contact the best cosmetic hospitals for scar removal, Jasmine said.

Ashley nodded thoughtfully. “Yeah, girls care a lot about their appearance. The face is essential.”
The Jackson family’s daughters-in-law also represented the family’s image. While Gina may have been beautiful, she lacked discipline and didn’t possess a refined demeanor. On the other hand, Jasmine was different. With the longstanding relationship between the two families, Jasmine was seen as obedient, primarily because she listened to Ashley. This kind of daughter-in-law was considered well-mannered, something Gina couldn’t compare to
Reluctantly, Jasmine began to confide in Ashley. “Ashley, I don’t know what Gina has done to Gabriel; he’s completely devoted to her, ignoring everything else….
Ashley comforted Jasmine, saying, “Don’t worry, Gina can never become my sister-in-law with me around. Right now, your priority is to focus on getting better and appearing in front of Gabriel in the best possible condition.”
“Okay.” Jasmine nodded vigorously.
At Quaria, Michael entered the reception room. “Miss Ashley Jackson,” he greeted.
Ashley began to size Michael. He was pretty handsome and seemed to be a talented individual, despite his young age, being the president of Quaria.

Chapter 252
Ashley, maintaining the dignity of being a member of the Jackson family, said, “Mr. Clark, I would like to talk to you. I represent the Jackson family and the Jackson Group’s interest in investing in Quaria.”
Even though she hadn’t directly involved herself in the Jackson Croup’s business dealings, her father, Harry, held the shares, making him a shareholder. So, her statement was indeed accurate.
Michael wasn’t too surprised. Considering the time Gabriel had been entangling with Gina, he assumed Ashley was representing Gabriel in extending goodwill to Quaria. “Certainly, Miss Jackson. How much capital do you intend to invest?”
Ashley took a sip of water nonchalantly. “Jackson Group can provide whatever amount of capital is needed. My request regarding Quaria is quite simple. If you agree to a small condition of mine, our cooperation can be quickly finalized.”
Michael didn’t believe Ashley’s request would be as minor as she implied. “Miss Jackson, please go ahead and tell me.”
“I heard that Gina Miller is your exclusively hired designer at Quaria. If you dismiss her, I will invest immediately.”

Michael was somewhat surprised. “Miss Jackson, as far as I know, Miss Miller is involved with your cousin…”
Ashley smirked sarcastically. “They haven’t even established a proper relationship yet; it’s just some ambiguous connection. Unless you are worried that if you dismiss Gina Miller, Gabriel might cause trouble for Quaria?”
Michael conidn’t help but find it amusing. “That’s not the reason at all.”
Then just fire her directly,” Ashley said impatiently.
