Justin was taken by someone unknown

Richard knew Erin was up to her usual antics."Bark!""Bark!"Suddenly, the tranquil silence outside Tranquil Manor was pierced by barks, and a massive black Labrador came bounding toward them."Ah!" Erin screamed, nearly leaping onto Richard and clinging to him desperately.Erin was afraid of dogs, everyone working for the Ryan family knew that.Being Erin's bodyguard was, for the most part, a walk in the park, on a danger-free day. The most he'd have to do was shield his employer from dogs.Richard couldn't fathom why Erin harbored such an intense fear of dogs, but the sheer panic in her eyes suggested it wasn't simply fear, it hinted at a harrowing pastencounter.Perhaps a dog bite."Richard, get it away, please get it away!" Erin's voice cracked, her body tensed, clinging desperately to his waist.With one arm securely around Erin, Richard's eyes darkened as he stared down the intruding canine.For safety, Erin's residence was situated in the middle of the lake, far from neighbor

Custody Battle Over Justin

"Ethan's voice dripped with a stern warning, "How could a kindergarten with the highest safety standards in San Francisco let a child leave early without notifying the family? If something happens to the child, the school cannot shirk responsibility.""M... Mr. Douglas, the principal personally..." The teacher, visibly shaken, stammered as she began to speak."Get the principal here," Ethan commanded, his anger palpable, while simultaneously phoning Liam. "Check the surveillance around the kindergarten, see who took Justin away, and do it quickly."Soon, the principal rushed out. "M... Mr. Douglas...""Is my kid something that just anyone can pick up and take away from your school?" Ethan's temperature was dangerously low. His usual cold demeanor now saturated with suppressed rage made him all the more intimidating."M... Mr. Douglas, your child?" The principal was stunned for a moment, then glanced at the record. "Are you referring to little Justin? Mr. Patrick Sr. came himself, said

Was Ethan Jealous?

Ethan had always been the picture of composure, perhaps due to his upbringing. At the age of five, he was already living independently with Mr. Douglas Sr.While other kids went through rebellious phases and impulsive adolescence, Ethan was mature beyond his years.He approached everything methodically, never acting on impulse. Before undertaking any task, he would meticulously consider whether it was worth his effort.Even in kindergarten, when teachers gave out small pets to exemplary students to take home, Ethan would decline, aware that taking care of a pet meant being responsible for its well-being. He understood the heartache of a pet's brief lifespan and decided it was better not to get attached.Ethan was someone who knew when to cut his losses.Thus, emotions and women had become mere concepts to him at an early age. He was excessively rational. To him, there were no hormonal clashes, no room for love.He had never imagined he would one day act irrationally, desiring to fight

Ethan's Creative Ways of Offering Money

Henry furrowed his brows, reluctantly moving toward the door, fearing what Mr. Patrick Sr. might say to unsettle Jasmine."Has this woman become more important to you than your grandfather?" Mr. Patrick Sr. asked angrily.Henry remained silent for a long moment. "Justin, let's go," he finally said.Justin looked back at his mom, unwilling to leave.Jasmine cupped Justin's cheeks. "Wait for Mom outside, it's okay. Grandpa Pat just wants to chat with me."Justin nodded, worry in his eyes as he left the room.Now alone with Jasmine and an assistant, it was the assistant who spoke first. "Ms. Wilson, name your price. What would it take for you to willingly give up custody of the child?""Justin is mine," Jasmine said firmly, gripping her fingers tightly. "Henry and I have an agreement, the child stays with me, and I won't sue him for rape."Jasmine took a deep breath, looking up at Mr. Patrick Sr. It wasn't her fault, and she had nothing to be ashamed of.Justin was an accident, one she n

Ethan's Partiality

Stellar Enterprises.Emerging from the subway station, Jasmine hurried into the company.As Ethan's personal assistant, she needed to arrive at the office before Mr. Douglas did."Jasmine! Quite the coincidence seeing you here." Harper who was immaculately dressed, yelled out enthusiastically from the company lounge. Her fair skin, long raven hair, and light makeup complemented her beauty. In a white dress, her smile blossomed like a lotus in the snow.Jasmine paused for a moment, her mind racing... Harper.Suddenly, it hit her. Henry had mentioned something about romantic complications between Harper and Ethan.A tightness gripped her chest, and Jasmine unconsciously clenched her fingers. "Miss Brown.""You work for Stellar Enterprises?" Harper asked, her face etched with surprise.Jasmine nodded."You're incredible, Jasmine! It's not easy to get into Stellar Enterprises, it's all Ivy League grads there. Which school did you attend?" Harper looked at Jasmine with admiration.Taking a

A Major Mistake at Work

Harper's expression soured as she watched Jasmine and Ethan leave. "Miss Brown..." the secretary started tentatively."I'll wait here," Harper responded all innocence and smiles. "I'll catch lunch with Ethan after his meeting."And she waited, sitting on the sofa all morning. She had loved Ethan since they were kids, but he had never even looked at her.Yet, Harper grew up with one thing clear in her mind: Ethan would marry her. Whateverit took, she would make Ethan marry her.The secretary nodded and exited the CEO's office. Harper sat, lost in thought.'How could she push Jasmine out of the company?'"Ambulance!" The commotion outside the office startled Harper.She hurried out and grabbed someone's arm. "What's happening?""Mr. Douglas had an allergic reaction. He's in shock!"She paled with fear and rushed towards the meeting room. "Is the meeting over? How could this happen so suddenly?""Apparently, the new assistant didn't know about Mr. Douglas's peanut allergy and offered hi

Ethan's Acting Chops

In a San Francisco hospital..Jasmine leaned anxiously over the side of the hospital bed, her eyes swollen and red from crying for hours on end.Ethan removed his oxygen mask, glanced at Jasmine, and gave a helpless smile. "It's just acting, you know. You cried for real?""But you... you were so convincing," Jasmine choked back sobs.After the meeting, Jasmine had given Ethan the 'peanut brittle' she'd switched out earlier.It was just plain toffee, but Ethan began to cough violently, gasping for air as if he couldn't breathe.Jasmine was terrified.Ethan couldn't help but laugh at her stammering and timid demeanor.She truly resembled a startled little rabbit."Are you upset cause you'd be sad if I had an allergic reaction and died, or cause you'd feel guilty if something actually happened to me?" Ethan was genuinely curious to know if Jasmine was worried about him.Jasmine wiped her tears away. Did it make any difference which of those fears was haunting her? "I was scared. I though

Jasmine is a Formidable Woman

Howard dismissed Jasmine and said to his PR team, "Call the police."Daria seemed relieved. "Exactly, Mr. Howard. Why give her a chance to explain? She'sgot a record. We should simply call the authorities with no further ado.""Uncle, maybe we should give Jasmine another chance. Just let her leave the company," Harper suggested kindly.Howard snorted. "Harper, don't be too soft-hearted. Your sister is in jail because of her."Harper let out a wistful sigh. "I just don't think Jasmine seems like a bad person.""You can never truly know someone," Daria chimed in with feigned concern.Jasmine remained calm, sitting until Howard and the PR team had left. Then she turned to Daria. "I don't mind, but I do have a recording in my possession. Are you interested in hearing it?"Daria, who was about to leave, tensed up at the mention of a recording."What are you talking about?" she asked Jasmine, confused.Jasmine methodically played the recording on her phone. She had already sent a copy of t

Ethan Demanded Jasmine Write a Reflection

Daria's face turned ashen in an instant."Jasmine!"Jasmine stepped back with her phone in hand while smiling at Daria. "Ms. Daria, it's a real pleasure to become colleagues."Daria's hands were trembling.Jasmine had outmaneuvered her, step by step, and now she'd spilled about Carmen's spy placed near Ethan.Knowing Carmen's nature, there was no way she'd let this slide.She had no choice but to be at Jasmine's mercy.'This woman...was genuinely terrifying.'"Our Mr. Douglas looks after every employee well."No sooner had Jasmine spoken than the police walked in. "Jasmine? We received a report that you're suspected of assault. Please come with us."Jasmine glanced at Daria, her expression calm.The onlookers outside the door were all mid-to-senior level staff from the company. They all witnessed the scene.Daria, feigning composure, stepped forward and spoke with a smile. "Sorry, it's all a misunderstanding. I'm the HR Manager at Stellar Enterprises. I just had a conversation with Ja

Jasmine Ascends the Ranks

At lunchtime, Jasmine still hadn't been able to write her report. She wasn't sure what she should be focusing on.A 3,000-word self-critique had stagnated at a mere hundred words, all echoing the same sentiment: "If the boss says I'm at fault, then I must be, even though I don't know what I did wrong.""Mr. Douglas, aren't you going to lunch?" Jasmine asked cautiously, gently pushing the office door open to check on Ethan.Ethan set aside his work, raising an eyebrow.Daria had somehow managed to submit a 'self-critique' that greatly satisfied him in record time.Inside the encrypted email was Daria's pledge of allegiance.Carmen was the one who'd set up an inside person at the company ahead of time.They were involved in every department.Ethan knew Daria had a backup plan and hadn't given him the complete list of names, but what he got was enough.As for the rest, he didn't care.Seeing how Jasmine had just arrived and brought him a gift, Ethan decided to let it slide this time and
