"When my mother is speaking, does a mistress like you have any right to interrupt?"
Jasmine was stunned by the slap.
She then cried out, demanding Henry to stand up for her.
"Henry, even though his son is a judge with power, he can't bully us ordinary people like this! He clearly doesn't take the Wang family seriously!"
"Yeah, yeah, Dad, hurry up and stand up for us!"
Henry's face turned livid, seemingly intending to really speak up for Jasmine.
But the next second, Liam said coldly, "Stand up for them? I'm afraid you haven't figured it out.
This matter absolutely won't end with just Jason being fired!"
"Jason Wang and Jasmine Lin, you two are suspected of multiple crimes such as illegal detention and intentional injury.
It's enough to make you spend the rest of your lives in prison!"
Jasmine and Jason were stunned for a moment, then a hint of terror appeared in their eyes.
"On what grounds? We just taught someone a lesson.
Is that enough to go to jail? Even if you're a judge, you can't abuse your power like this!"
Liam sneered, "Do you think you know who you've harmed? I've long applied for a special protection order for my mother.
The person you beat and abused is a citizen under special state protection! Is this crime enough to send you to jail?"
Everyone, including Henry, changed color.
Jasmine's eyes flashed with a hint of jealous hatred.
They didn't expect that Liam could actually apply for a special protection order for me.
By rights, Jasmine and Jason indeed had to be locked up in prison.
However, the shock only lasted for a moment.
The next second, Jasmine regained her composure.
She said fearlessly, "Heh, I'm afraid Judge Xu doesn't know that my Jason has already started a collaboration with Miss Grace Zhao.
He's about to become a new noble in the entertainment industry.
Don't tell me you want to put a future business elite in prison?"
Hearing this, Jason also breathed a sigh of relief and sneered, "That's right.
I'm about to become Grace Zhao's partner.
Esteemed Judge, Grace Zhao is your backer.
You wouldn't really dare to do anything, would you?"
Seeing Jason and Jasmine's smug appearance, Liam not only didn't get angry but even smiled faintly.
"...
Is that so?"
Just then, a clear voice rang out—
"Grace Zhao Studio Announcement! We hereby cancel all collaborations with Heshang Group!"
"How is this possible?!"
Jason sprang up like a startled rabbit.
He stared at the assistant reading the announcement with bulging eyes, "Everything was fine.
Why would Miss Zhao cancel the collaboration with me? Did I do something wrong?"
"You don't know what you did wrong?"
As soon as the voice fell, everyone saw a stunningly beautiful woman elegantly walking over.
The moment this woman appeared, everyone present tightened their expressions and revealed looks of amazement.
"Hello everyone, I am Grace Zhao."
The person who arrived was none other than Grace Zhao, the top star of today's entertainment industry.
It was said that she was not only the queen of the entertainment industry but had also successfully transformed into a business powerhouse with a net worth exceeding 10 billion.
Grace swept a cold gaze over the Heshang Group entourage, her eyes revealing undisguised disgust.
The next second, she swiftly threw herself into my arms and called out coquettishly, "Mom~"
With just a single word, Jasmine and the others widened their eyes as if they had seen a ghost.
How...
How could this be?
It was one thing for Judge Xu to be my son, but how could even Grace Zhao be my daughter?!
"Grace, why are you here?"
