Getting My Ex-wife Back

“Jenna, come here.” Hansen stared at Jenna and extended his hand to her. His expression grew sorrowful as he asked, “Do you know the consequences of your actions? Do you know the negative outcomes associated? Do you know you are letting me down?”

His eyes were bloodshot and there were dark circles under his eyes. He looked haggard. His wrinkled suit gave him a disheveled appearance.

He stretched out his hand to her again. His eyes were fixed on Jenna, eagerly waiting for her response.

Jenna had a soft spot for him. She almost forgot her goal and dashed towards him. However, she stopped herself.

No, she couldn’t go.

She could not let her efforts go down the drain.

“Hansen, I don’t think there will be any negative consequences.” She smiled at him and said lightly, “You can marry Aria and I can be with Rayan. There’s nothing wrong with it. We got divorced a long time ago. What we are doing is not against the law. I think there is nothing shameful about this. What do you think?”

“Jenna, how can you engage in an affair with a brazen assurance? Did you really say that? Are you still the woman I love? Why? Tell me! Tell me the reason. Convince me,” Hansen bellowed as a wave of fury crashed through him.

He felt dejected.

He could not believe that this was true.

“Hansen, it’s not the first day we are dating. You guys have gotten a divorce. There’s nothing wrong with me being her boyfriend. Please respect our decision.” Rayan placed his hand on Jenna’s waist. The smile of pleasure never left his face.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

Hansen stared at his hand which was placed on Jenna’s waist and his eyes blazed murderously.

Jenna belonged to him and only him. He used to be proud of that. However, she currently belonged to another man. He could not accept it.

He was confident that she would belong to him forever. He had always gotten what he wanted. He would allow no exceptions.

“Jenna, I beg you, please come back to me. You know that I won’t marry Aria. I just want you and I will only marry you. It doesn’t matter if I lose everything else,” he begged. His expression was a fifty-fifty mixture of pain and anger.

Jenna clenched her fist and her heart ached so much but she assumed an air of indifference and responded, “Hansen, why are you so annoying? Aria already has your child. If you don’t marry her, who would you marry? Don’t pester me anymore. I had enough of you. Do you want me to be your mistress? Let me be frank with you, that’s just wishful thinking. Rayan is loyal to me and treats me well. I am happy being his girlfriend, anyone can see that. Please know your place and keep your distance from me in the future.”

She drove her point home!

However, Hansen did not give up. He lost his cool and was yelling hysterically, begging for forgiveness.

“No, Jenna, I only want you. I admit that I have not treated you well in the past. I’m sorry, please forgive me. I will change in the future. Trust me, I will be good to you in the future. I will repay you with everything I have.”

Jenna burst out laughing.

“Hansen, you are too naïve. Everything had gone wrong since the beginning. How could we have a future together? There’s no turning back. Just marry Aria and we can go our separate ways. It’s best for both of us.”

Her expression was unreadable. The hostility in her voice and expression was unnerving.

Hansen’s heart sank and his face turned ashen. There were beads of sweat on his forehead. He stared at Jenna in disbelief. “Jenna, are you really so heartless?”

She turned her head so that he would not see the tears burning her eyes. She remained silent.

“No, Jenna. You are not a heartless person. I know you. You would never treat me like this. Have you forgotten the times we spent together? I promised you that I would marry you a year later. Didn’t you agree? Think about Grandma. She has allowed you to inherit the Richards Group and be part of the family. You are already mine. How could we go our separate ways? We were destined to be together.” Hansen’s nerves were frayed and great beads of perspiration trickled down his forehead.

Jenna turned around and sniffed quietly as tears threatened to spill from her eyes. She bit her lips to prevent them from rolling down her cheeks.

“Hansen, I know that Grandma is very kind to me and I appreciate it very much. However, I have already decided to forgive Norton and let the matter slide. I have already repaid Grandma for her kindness. Besides, I will let Aria inherit the Richards Group on your wedding day. I will appoint a lawyer for the matter. It’s the end, Hansen. Please respect my decision.” After a while, she turned around to face him. The expression on her face was one of grim determination.

“No, Jenna, it’s impossible,” Hansen cried out.  “Why did you make such a decision? Tell me! Are you hiding something? Did someone threaten you? Tell me and I will solve it.”

He had lost his mind.

“Hansen,” someone bellowed. Marissa emerged suddenly. She shook her head disapprovingly when she saw Hansen in this state and reprimanded him, “Hansen, you are a man. You are begging for a woman who no longer loves you to return in front of another man. Where’s your pride and dignity? Do you still remember that you represent the Richards family? She has already hooked up with another man. Would you be happy in the future even if she comes back? You are such a fool.”

Hansen was set on changing Jenna’s mind but upon hearing what Marissa said, realization dawned on him. He knew it was impossible but his heart still ached. He stared blankly ahead with his jaws clenched.

“Hansen, you have Aria and she has your child. Why don’t you know how to appreciate her? Why must you fall for a sl*t like her? Have you forgotten the lesson three years ago? Why are you so foolish? Why did you fall for her again? With our family’s status, you can get any woman you like. Why her? From today onwards, forget about her and marry Aria. Do you get it?” Marissa said sternly.

Rayan furrowed his brows and frowned.

“Auntie, how dare you call Jenna a sl*t? I don’t like how you regard her at all.” Rayan held Jenna’s hand and took a step forward. He said coldly, “I have been to so many places and seen many women but I only love Jenna. She is beautiful and she has integrity. I could wish nothing more than to be with her forever. However, all you did was belittle her. I did not understand in the past but now, I know why she decided to leave the Richards family. Let me warn you. Don’t you guys dare to insult Jen again or I will definitely teach you a lesson. The Richards family may be a prestigious family but there are other families who are superior to yours. I would not sit back and watch as you guys bully the person I love.”

His expression was unreadable as he warned them. He held Jenna’s waist in a protective gesture and looked at her affectionately. “Jen, it must have been tough for you to stay in the Richards family. They are so arrogant. Only a silly girl like you would be able to withstand the pressure. Since they don’t welcome your presence, let’s go now.”

Rayan was in distress and his heart went out to Jenna. He felt indignant. Jenna was such a lovely woman, yet she received such unfair treatment in the Richards family. How dare Marissa belittled her in public? There was no reason for Jenna to linger on.

Hansen did not fulfill his duty to protect her.

Rayan’s mind was set. He would bring her away from here.

“No, Rayan, I promised Vivian to leave after the New Year banquet has ended. I will continue to come here in the mornings,” Jenna shook her head stubbornly and said earnestly.

“Hey, I didn’t expect you to be so responsible. Looks like I can’t stop you.” Rayan chuckled. “All right, Jen. I will accompany you. I won’t let anyone bully you.”

“Thank you, Rayan.” Jenna smiled, holding his hand as she turned her back on Marissa and Hansen and they headed towards Green Jade Garden. “Rayan, let me go upstairs to pack up some stuff. I will bring them along when I leave.”

“Sure, Jen,” Rayan agreed and patted her on the head.

They chatted happily as they walked away.

Hansen lost his balance and almost collapsed onto the ground.

At this moment, a vortex of anger swirled inside him and he was smoldered with resentment. His heart ached so much. The woman whom he wanted to protect was flirting openly with another man. She was so heartless and paid no heed to his pleas.

It was the first time someone had treated him in this manner. He could not lose her. He couldn’t live without her.

“Jenna, the design of your bedroom is very unique!” Rayan looked around Jenna’s bedroom in awe.

There were various odd-shaped colored paper graphics pasted everywhere in the room. Many of them were car models of various brands. Many seashells were hanging around in her room. Besides, he noticed mini-versions of car models lying around. He couldn’t help but sigh. “Jenna, I finally know why you don’t like the room that I have specifically designed for you. You are indeed a peculiar woman. No wonder you are good at coming up with car designs. Looks like that’s the main focus in your life.”

Jenna’s heart was filled with sadness and despair as she noticed Rayan examining her room, especially when she stared at the colored papers and seashells.

It definitely never crossed his mind that these items were designed by her a few years ago when her relationship with Hansen was strained and she had nothing else to do. She had a lot of time to herself and she used it to craft the designs. She always felt a deep sense of loneliness and longing back then.

A pang of loneliness swept over her. She would never forget the feeling.
