Chapter 262: Lola’s Fault... again

[The Young Residence]

Jasmine glanced at the time, idling in the living area while waiting for her husband. Lawrence had been going home late, and as the loving wife, she waited for him to take care of her husband.

"Madam, the master is here."

Her lips curled up as her eyes lit up, and she pushed herself, rushing to the entrance. By the time she was near, Lawrence had already walked in.

"Honey —" Jasmine’s smile and sweet voice stopped when a handful of papers and a brown envelope flew in her direction. She flinched as the papers landed on her chest before they fell to her feet.

Confused by his rage, she looked at him in disbelief. "Lawrence, why would you..."

"Explain this to me," he breathed out through gritted teeth, hands on his hips. "Jasmine, explain these files to me. NOW!"

"What are you —" Her eyes fell on the papers, and she picked up one of them. Just with one paper, she froze as she understood what it was for.

"Jasmine, I trusted you with the company because I know you’re a brilliant woman," he breathed out, pointing down at her and the papers on the floor. "Explain those funds to me. I swear, Jasmine, you better have a good explanation for them because... I don’t know what I will do if you don’t."

Jasmine’s eyes shook as her heart skipped to her throat.

How did he get ahold of this? she wondered to herself. I already made sure he wouldn’t trace all these.

Her shoulders trembled, her mind racing to concoct a believable excuse. This was not something she had prepared herself for, confident Lawrence would never find these missing funds—even if he died.

"Jasmine!" he roared, marching toward her. He grabbed her shoulders and forced her to stand until she was facing him, shaking her aggressively. "Are you... are you really stealing from me?!"

"No." She shook her head. "No, no! Darling, it’s not like — please listen to me! I can explain!"

"Tell me... now. What are those papers?" he huffed, his grip on her shoulders tightening until she winced.

"Lawrence, I’m... you’re hurting me — ahh!"

He shook her even more. "Tell me now! What is the meaning of this?! What explanation do you have for this?! I already asked someone to verify these accounts, so you better not lie to me!"

As his voice rang out throughout the entire mansion, her body froze in place. The rim of her eyes reddened in panic as she studied the angry look on his face. This was the first time she had seen him this angry with her. In all these decades, Lawrence had never once raised his voice at her.

Her lips trembled as a quiet whimper soon came out: "Yes, I was... stealing from you."

His breath hitched as his grip on her shoulders loosened. Lawrence looked at her blankly, taking a step back.
