Chapter 216: Jasmine's Love Defense Battle
He knew Jasmine too well. If he didn't forcefully give her gifts, she would never know how to spend his money.
Ethan felt uneasy and uncertain about Jasmine's behavior of never wanting to spend his money.
A woman who doesn't care about a man's money will indeed make the man feel insecure.
It was as if Jasmine could leave at any time.
...
Seeing Ethan hang up the phone, Jasmine's heart pounded.
Walking back to the store, Jasmine found Emily still arguing with the supervisor.
"You poor creature, what kind of rich friends do you have? Let me tell you, if you don't pass this month's assessment, you're out." The supervisor continued to scold Emily.
"I've served all the customers who come to buy bags, and all of Kimberly's clients were taken care of by me. And now you're telling me it's my fault?" Emily wasn't someone to be trifled with.
"You're just a newcomer, those are all regular customers, of course they're not yours."
"Stop arguing..." Jasmine intervened, wanting to reconcile the situation.
"Get lost! You poor people." The supervisor looked at Jasmine with disdain. "If you care so much about your friend, why don't you buy a few bags to boost her sales?"
Jasmine paused and didn't say anything.
The supervisor thought Jasmine couldn't afford it. From head to toe, she exuded simplicity, without makeup and not adorned with elegance. Although she was naturally beautiful without makeup, in the eyes of these people who worship the higher-ups and belittle the lower class, she looked like a commoner.
"I can't afford to dress up." The supervisor rolled her eyes and turned around to see a guest walking in, wearing a sundress and high heels, holding onto a middle-aged man.
"Oh my goodness! Aria, you finally came!" In an instant, the supervisor's face changed.
Jasmine was astonished. Just a moment ago, the supervisor seemed like she wanted to devour someone, but now she was changing faces like a face-changing performer in Sichuan opera.
Emily chuckled at Jasmine's expression. "Haven't seen someone like her before? Seeing a rich person is even more important than seeing one's own parents."
Jasmine pursed her lips. "Such acting skills..."
"Pay no attention to her." Emily pulled Jasmine to the side. "That woman wearing sunglasses and a mask, she is Aria Harper, Zelda's cousin. And the man next to her is Yan Mei's husband. Yan Mei and her cousin Brown will be here soon. Just wait and see the show."
Jasmine took a deep breath. "What if they start fighting? What are you going to do if the supervisor blames you?"
"Don't worry about that. As long as I can help you." Emily raised an eyebrow. "Let me tell you, I also found a friend who is a broadcaster with millions of followers. He will pretend to pass by here and livestream everything online. The public opinion will instantly blow up."
Jasmine hugged Emily excitedly. "Thank you so much. I've also contacted a reporter..."
She had also asked that person to help her find reporters.
She wanted to once again push the Brown family's reputation into the spotlight before Howard made a move against Ethan.
Jasmine couldn't believe that even under these circumstances, Howard still wanted to force Ethan and the Brown family into an alliance.
Biting her lip, Jasmine made up her mind to protect her relationship with Ethan.
At least, she could hold on for a moment.
"Okay, let's proceed with the plan." Emily raised an eyebrow at Jasmine, signaling her to be ready.
Jasmine clenched her fist, full of fighting spirit.
Emily smiled helplessly.
Actually... Jasmine had changed a lot since getting out of prison.
Perhaps, this was what it meant to be with the right person.
Being with Ethan, Jasmine's transformation was truly visible to the naked eye.
It was as if a withered flower had been carefully nurtured and sprouted again.
"Jasmine, I hope you can bloom brilliantly once again." Emily said meaningfully.
With Ethan's fertile ground, as long as he put in the effort, Jasmine would eventually bloom again.
"Darling, I have my eye on this bag. Can you believe that girl from our group brought a more expensive one than me? It's so infuriating." Aria Harper coquettishly clung to the man and pointed at a bag worth over a million dollars, being all seductive.
The man seemed to be completely taken by her, extremely indulgent. "Buy it," he said.
"Oh sweetheart, I love you so much," Aria Harper said, hugging the man and giving him a kiss.
Jasmine, drinking water, choked on it.
This is way too cutesy…
Could this be what people mean when they say that men love women who act cutesy?
If she were to act this way towards Ethan… would he like her?
Just imagining herself acting cutesy towards Ethan gave Jasmine goosebumps.
She couldn’t do it…
"Darling, I really want this bracelet. I have an event to attend tomorrow, and I don't have any decent jewelry to show off. People will make fun of you," Aria Harper started acting cutesy again, almost clinging to the man, wrapping her arms around him.
At the door, Veronica had already arrived and stood there, stiff and motionless for a long time.
That man, who spent four years in prison for her, was now hugging a young starlet and was so lavish with his spending.
For a moment, everything went dark in front of her.
"Veronica…" Jasmine became worried and ran over.
The man also turned to look and gasped for breath.
Instinctively pushing Aria Harper away, the man hurriedly approached. "Veronica…"
Veronica took a step back and slapped him. "You sure had a good time while I was gone."
"Veronica, let me explain," the man had something that Veronica had leverage over and couldn't afford to lose face.
Aria Harper was not pleased. "Darling, what are you afraid of? You're so wealthy, she's just an old and poor woman. What can she do?"
"You shameless slut!" Veronica wanted to tear Aria Harper apart.
Both sides immediately started struggling with each other.
The internet celebrity outside the door took the opportunity to start live-streaming, and the viewers in the live-stream chat instantly became excited.
To be able to witness this juicy gossip while watching a live-stream?
Soon, someone recognized Aria Harper. "Isn't she a member of that new girl group from last year, Aria Harper?"
"That's her! Oh my god, she's actually being a mistress!"
...
"How dare you hit me! Do you know who I am?" Aria Harper, having been slapped, lost control and shouted at Veronica. "Do you know who my Uncle is? Do you know about the Brown family? My cousin is engaged to Stellar Enterprises CEO Ethan!"
Aria Harper lived up to expectations and revealed her background.
Jasmine sighed in relief. She was worried that Aria Harper wouldn't reveal her identity and she would have to use some tricks.
But it turned out it was not difficult at all.
"Your sister is Harper?" Emily raised her voice intentionally. "The Harper who said she was going to marry Ethan? Oh my goodness! That's the CEO of Stellar Enterprises!"
Emily's flattery made Aria Harper extremely proud. "Yes! Now do you know who I am? I demand an immediate apology from you!"
Aria Harper wanted to fight back.
Veronica, with red eyes, looked at her man. "The one who really deserves a beating is you."
The guilty man couldn't afford to provoke either side.
"Harper is your sister. Is this how the Brown family raised you, to be a home-wrecker?" Veronica turned around to look at the approaching reporters outside. "Look at all of you, public figures who dare to be home-wreckers, and even from the Brown family!"
Only now did Aria Harper realize something was wrong. When did the mall have so many reporters, all familiar faces from the entertainment industry?
This meant that someone had intentionally...
It wasn't too foolish. Aria Harper looked at Veronica in shock. "You planned this..."
With fear, she put on a mask and a hat, but it was already too late.
The topic of the Brown family teaching their daughter and niece to be home-wreckers, a family with distorted values, had already become a hot search.
Member of XX girl group, Harper, the cousin of bully Zelda, becomes a home-wrecker, destroying families.
The Brown family couldn't produce a single normal person. They bully others, their parents cover it up, and their cousin becomes a home-wrecker!
