Chapter 192 The Heir of the Luke Family
The moment she spoke, her tone was full of aggrievement.
She was about to snitch hard on Stella.
But the next moment, a man’s roar in a low tone came from the other end of the call, Jasmine, get back here at once!”
“Dad, you?” Feeling startled, Jasmine asked.
“You fool. You’ve been causing problems for me outside. Get back here this instant! And don’t you dare provoke Stella,” The voice from the other end of the call continued.
Hearing that, Jasmine was left speechless.
What did she do wrong?
Others might not know, but the older generations were certainly aware of the recent occurrences in the top–tier society, including the trouble the Reed family was in and Sharon’s detention. These people knew perfectly well what was going on.
Now they were afraid that their clueless children would get themselves involved.
Jasmine thought she had misheard her father and asked, “What did you say?”
She
thought, Don’t mess with who?Stella! Since when did that woman know Dad? And now Dad was even sidingwith her?
“I’ll give you 30 minutes. If you’re not back by then, your allowance next month is gone.
Hearing that her allowance was at stake, Jasmine panicked in an instant.
“Wait, Dad, what do you mean? I am.” Jasmine tried to refute.
“You have 29 minutes left!”
jasmine was left speechless.
Jasmine thought, Just what kind of seductive tricks does shehave? How is she able to make so many men fall for her?Why was Dad being so protective of her? Could it be that Dadhas taken a liking to her?
With that thought in mind, Jasmine couldn’t stay calm, so she said, “Dad, Mom has always been the one sacrificing for this family. You can’t betray her.”
“Are you out of your mind?” The voice on the other end of the line yelled.
She was left speechless, again.
“You’ve got 25 minutes left. If you can’t get back by then, the allowance for the month after next is gone too.”
Upon hearing that, Jasmine dared not delay another second. She hurried towards Pluchville Hill while cursing.
“You’re counting faster on purpose! I was just- Jasmine tried to rebut.
*20 minutes left!”
Jasmine couldn’t speak a word.
Under that kind of pressure. Jasmine didn’t even dare to delay another second, while her original intention was to confront
Stella a couple of minutes ago.

Chapter 192 The Heir of the Luke Family
Clenching his fists, he gritted his teeth and glared at Abraham.
He then shot up to his feet and growled, “What are you doing here?”
Finished
Ethan realized that Stella was here too. Then he thought, wonderful. Just great. Now she and this man were so close that they wereinseparable.
Feeling the oppressive presence emanating from Abrahamn and that aura of authority, Ethan thought, could it be that he was here to stick his nose in the alliance with the Luke family?If so, who exactly was helFirst, Louis. Now him?
Ethan’s face grew dark.
He gritted his teeth and said, “I’m warning you, spare no thoughts on the Luke family’s ores.”
He thought, Louis’s meddling was already giving us a headache. And now this guy? What are all these troublesStellais getting him into? Don’t tell me she leaked the information about the KeeneGroup’swanting to joint venture with the Luke family to him. Is she sabotaging on purpose?
Jonce doubts set in, the mind goes wild.
The fact was he’d never told Stella anything about the Reed family’s exhausted mines or the plan to replace them.
Abel glanced at Ethan and said, “Mr. Keene, it seems there’s a lot you still don’t know.”
That look in his eyes was basically calling him a fool.
Abraham thought, I’d been in Rivermount for a while, yet judging by his reaction, he clearly had no clue. Is this the heir to the KeeneGroup?Mr. Judson is sure to be bold enough to hand over the company to him.
It was only now that Ethan noticed Abel standing behind Abraham.
Seeing Abel, a trace of shock flickered in his eyes. He looked at Abel before directing his gaze on Abraham.
His eyes were filled with perplexity as he clearly did not understand why the two of them were together.
After all, the last time they met, he assumed that these two were both men involved with Stella.
But now what was this?
Ethan’s gaze kept flicking back and forth between Abraham and Abel.
He was desperately searching for answers in his mind, but his brain was in total chaos.
Seeing Ethan remain silent, Abel stepped forward politely and suggested, “Mr. Abraham, it looks like Mr. Judson isn’t here. Shall we go for now?”
Ethan remained silent as he thought, Mr. Abraham? What does he mean by that?
He saw how Abel was being respectful toward Abraham.
A bad feeling welled up within him in an instant.
