Chapter 14 One Hundred Million Dollar’s Cleared

Chapter 14 One Hundred Million Dollars Cleared

She wanted to laugh so badly she had to bite her tongue.

The house used to be a graveyard; with Felicity around, it was a comedy club.

People pay for tickets to see a show this good.

And here she was, getting it for free.

Silas was, of course, devastated for her.

“I’ll take you back. I’ll stay until you fall asleep.”

He said it right in front of his wife without a hint of hesitation.

Luckily, Jasmine didn’t care. She was exceptionally generous. “Silas, take her back. I heard catching a cold during recovery can cause lifelong health issues.”

“You stay with her. Julian would be so worried if he knew she was suffering like this.”

Even Felicity caught the sarcasm in that.

Resentment flared in her eyes before vanishing again.

Silas only heard the surface meaning and felt torn. “You…”

He’d just promised to stay with her. Breaking that promise now filled him with guilt.

Jasmine’s “understanding” nature only made him more conflicted.

Before, this woman would have given him the cold shoulder or snapped at him.

Now she was being sweet.

Had she really accepted the situation?

But for some reason, her being sweet and understanding didn’t make him happy.

In fact, Silas almost wished she’d cause a scene.

Jasmine, of course, read his mind perfectly.

What a loser, she cursed under her breath.

But her face remained serene. “I’m fine. Her health is more important. Go.”

Silas led Felicity away.

Jasmine watched them go with a smile.

The second the door closed, she got up and locked it.

Her smile vanished instantly.

She slapped her own cheeks and rubbed her stiff jaw.

That was exhausting.

She’d known that if Silas stayed too long, Felicity would come looking for him.

It seemed the woman’s possessiveness was quite strong.

That’s why Jasmine had pushed him toward her on purpose.

Now that she was wide awake, Jasmine couldn’t get her mind off her conversation with Ethan Cross.

On a whim, she pulled out her phone and searched for his name.

The results left her speechless.

Ethan Cross. Born in Portshire.

Started graduate-level computer science courses at age eleven.

Developed his first software program at twelve.

At fifteen, while captain of the varsity basketball team, he developed a music recommendation algorithm that sold for $7 million.

At seventeen, he entered the world’s top-ranked university for computer science and was dubbed a “programming prodigy.”

At twenty-four, he took over the family business and turned Zenith Tech into a global powerhouse in just two years.

The more Jasmine read, the more she wanted to bow down to this god of tech.

Finally, her eyes landed on a single line.

Fiancé: Judy Wilde.

Jasmine was curious.

What kind of woman would it take to stand beside a man who looked down on the world from such a height?

Sierra called.

“I found the person you wanted. Completely reliable.”

Jasmine smiled. “You’ve never let me down.”

“So? What’s the move?”

“Wait for my signal.”

“Got it.”

Sierra remembered something.

“There’s a college reunion tomorrow night. You coming?”

Jasmine didn’t hesitate. “Yes.”

“Dress to kill. Blind them all.”

“Count on it.”

The next morning, Jasmine checked her phone as she woke up. Her groggy mind cleared instantly.

One hundred million dollars. Not a cent missing.

The sender was the name of the jewelry store.

Jasmine couldn’t figure it out.

Why did they trust her this much?
