Getting My Ex-wife Back

“Young madam, what’s going on?” asked the captain of the security team, after rushing over and saluting Jenna as soon as he saw her there.

Jenna had just arrived and didn’t know much about what had happened, except that the chaos was related to Aria’s gown. She turned her head and asked Sabrina, “Sabrina, what actually happened?”

“We were just teaching this villain a lesson. It has nothing to do with all of you, you may leave,” Sabrina said as she gestured to the guards. Being in charge, she told the guards, “Your job is to protect our safety as well as the guests, and deal with burglars or thieves, not interfere with our fights. Off you go.”

The security guards left as soon as they heard Sabrina’s orders.

Minnie began to cry even harder, as she pointed at Jenna and screamed, “You b*tch, I know that you’re unhappy that you were chased out from the Richards Manor. Now, you’re jealous that Mr. Richards loves Ms. McAdams and no longer loves you. So, you told them to ruin Ms. McAdams’ dress, and they even dared to hit me! Let me tell you, I’ll inform Ms. McAdams of this right now. She will never forgive you.”

Jenna felt annoyed as she was being scolded by Minnie, but was confused as well as she felt that it wasn’t that simple. She was anxious and tried to look for Sabrina and Zoey to ask them what had happened, when a booming voice sounded, “What is going on?”

She turned around in shock, only to see Hansen walking over with a gloomy expression on his face.

“Mr. Richards, Mr. Richards, they’ve ganged up on Ms. McAdams. Look, they’ve ruined Ms. McAdams’ gown on purpose, and she’s still waiting for her gown in her room. Not only did they refuse to fix and clean her gown, they even bullied me and attacked me together. Mr. Richards, you have to help us, you have to do us justice,” Minnie cried to Hansen the minute she heard his voice, as she crawled over hurriedly while pressing her hands onto her stomach and her face.

“Is that true?” Hansen glanced around with a sullen face and asked Jenna.

Jenna didn’t even know what had happened. Her mouth was open but she didn’t know what to answer.

“This is what happens when you’re in charge? It’s only the first day yet there’s already such chaos? Are you trying to humiliate Richards Manor?” Hansen asked with a cold and solemn face.

“Ah.” Jenna made an ‘ah’ sound and took a step back, not knowing what to do.

“You may all leave and prepare for the next activity. We will be going to Central Island to visit the mysterious plum garden soon. There will be many attractive prizes to be won. This is only a small accident. It’s nothing important, so don’t crowd around here anymore,” Hansen said to the crowd with a deep voice.

The crowd dispersed as soon as they saw Hansen arrived to keep the situation in check, as they knew that there wasn’t going to be any more drama for them to watch.

“The four of you, come with me.” Hansen glared at them and said sternly.

After speaking, he turned around and walked towards the Ink Garden office.

Zoey and Sabrina looked at each other with worry, especially Zoey, who had never seen Hansen so harsh before. With a little anxiety in their hearts, they quickly caught up to Hansen’s footsteps.

Minnie wanted to ask for justice. So, she gladly followed.

Hansen’s expression was very frightening, and Jenna was worried that Sabrina would have to suffer. After all, Sabrina hadn’t been married into the Richards family yet. Zoey on the other hand was Hansen’s cousin and Marissa’s relative, so they wouldn’t be able to do much to her.

Besides, Hansen’s words made her feel uneasy, and she wanted to know more about the situation as well, so the four of them followed Hansen with sulky faces.

“You should wait outside first.” Once they arrived at the Ink Garden office, Hansen led the three of them in, but left Jenna waiting alone outside.

Jenna was helpless, and could only wait anxiously outside. She could hear faint sounds of Minnie’s complaints, Sabrina’s protests, and Zoey’s begs for mercy, every once in a while. The sounds were soft and indistinct, and Jenna became even more worried as she couldn’t hear what was going on inside clearly.

She paced anxiously outside, not knowing what was going on inside. She had a bad feeling about what had just happened, and it seemed to involve her as well.

After more than an hour had passed, the door opened.

Minnie walked out proudly and happily, snorted at Jenna, and then walked away.

Sabrina was unhappy with the outcome, and walked out with a glum expression on her face.

Zoey’s head hung low, and her face was full of dejection, the haughty face she had when she first went in was completely gone.

Jenna was about to go up to them and ask about what had happened when she heard Hansen yell to her, “You, come in.”

She looked at the two of them. She felt nervous and puzzled, but still walked in calmly.

Hansen sat in front of the office desk with a solemn and tense face. As he saw Jenna walk in, his gaze landed on her body for a while, and there was a sense of mystery in his eyes.

Jenna felt flustered by his gaze, and she was still worried in her heart. She walked forward slowly and asked in a low voice, “Hansen, what actually had happened?”

Hansen drank slowly from the cup he was holding, and flicked the pen in his other hand with his finger. He didn’t answer her question.

Aria’s luxurious gown laid on the office desk in front of her. The gorgeous gown was now a pile of rags, and it has lost all of its beauty and charm.

She stared at the dress in a daze and sighed, people were just like this gown. When they’re successful, they get to be as glamorous as they want. The moment they fail, everyone starts to bring them down, and they lose everything.

“Did you do it on purpose?” A long while later, she heard Hansen ask with a sullen face.

“You ordered them to do this?” he asked.

“Was this the result you wanted to see?” he chimed in.

The three questions shot out of Hansen’s mouth and directly onto Jenna without any mercy.

Jenna was dumbfounded. What did he mean by that? She thought. But looking at his face that was as gloomy as the sky when it’s about to rain, she understood how serious the situation was. She didn’t know how to answer him, so she stared at him blankly.

Hansen stared at her sullenly.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” she answered irritably after a while. She never had anything to do with this matter, yet he made it sound like she was the one who started it. This made her heart fill with rage.

“You really don’t know? Alright then, go ahead and ask the two of them about what had happened. I’ll be waiting for you right here,” Hansen said coldly as he stood up calmly as if he knew that she was definitely a part of this.

Jenna had no choice but to walk out, only to see Sabrina and Zoey sulking on the sofa.

After asking patiently, she finally understood that Zoey had heard from Sabrina about the news that Hansen was going to marry Aria. She didn’t understand why and went to ask Hansen about it, but he told her not to be nosy. During the welcoming ceremony, Aria was arrogant and haughty, and Minnie looked snobby as well. The two of them were so angry that they decided to embarrass Aria to take revenge for Jenna.

For the welcoming ceremony, Aria took Jenna’s place as the emcee, leaving Jenna with nothing to do. Therefore, Jenna returned to her room and didn’t participate in the activity.

Sabrina, on the other hand, had to host the ceremony with Aria as the emcees, and it made her burst with anger. Aria took all the easy jobs and enjoyed the limelight, but let Sabrina deal with all the troublesome matters and dirty work. She even snatched Sabrina’s lines on stage, leaving Sabrina feeling awkward.

The last time they went on stage, Zoey stuck a rubber duck on the back of Aria’s gown, and purposely spilled a lot of tomato juice on it. When Aria turned around to walk down the stage, she heard everyone laughing as they saw the back of her gown, but she didn’t know what was going on. The minute she found out, she burst into anger and wanted to kick Zoey out of the banquet. Sabrina was unhappy about it and stepped on Aria’s gown when she wasn’t aware. Aria tripped and fell. This made Aria mad, and the two of them quickly left as they saw the situation escalate.

Aria whined and cried to her father, Earl McAdams, about it. Earl ordered Hansen to see him and warned him to deal with this matter strictly.

Aria had no choice but to take off her gown and wait in her room, while Minnie brought the gown over to make the two of them clean it up, and everything she saw happened after that.

Jenna finally understood what had happened after hearing their explanation, but it gave her a headache instead. These two aristocratic ladies actually did all these to Aria to take revenge for her? What was all of this?

She was furious, and sighed helplessly.

Thinking of Hansen’s gloomy expression, she started to worry.

She had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk back into the office.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Hansen had a cold expression on his face, as he read the accounting records book on his desk. He didn’t even lift his head when Jenna entered the office.

“Umm… Hansen, I really didn’t know about this, it had nothing to do with me.” She shot a glance at him. He looked stern and distant, not really bothered by her. She could only speak very carefully and tried to help the two of them lighten their ‘sentences’, so that they could all get over this.

Hansen frowned and scorned coldly. “Trying to shift the blame?”

This one sentence made Jenna choke on her own saliva, and she took a deep breath.

“What do you want? I really didn’t know about it.” She immediately fought back with a displeased face. Just because they wanted to take revenge for her, it doesn’t mean that she wanted it to. Besides, Aria went overboard with her behavior, so she technically earned all that trouble for herself. She didn’t know how to treat people, and couldn’t stay lowkey. It was no surprise that she was attacked. Everyone could see Aria’s nasty behavior, so he couldn’t blame everything on her. He should be advising Aria and Minnie on how to improve their behavior, instead of scolding her, Sabrina, and Zoey.

“You’re trying to dismiss me with an ‘I didn’t know? You’re thinking too simply. Let me ask you, others may not know what had happened between us, but it’s impossible that you weren’t aware of it. So how could they take revenge for you? Was it me who decided not to marry you, who abandoned you? How are you supposed to be the wronged one? Why don’t you tell them what actually happened? Now they’re pitying you instead and trying to cause chaos in our New Year Banquet. It will not be possible as long as I’m here. Also, aren’t you supposed to be the one in charge? Is this how you take charge?” Hansen asked fiercely as he slammed the book down and stood up. He walked towards her until she was backed into the corner, and scanned her with his icy glare.

Jenna was vulnerable in front of all his questions. She could only stare at him blankly.

“Then what do you want me to do?” she asked frankly.

“What do I want you to do?” Hansen raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth lifted into a smirk. He said devilishly, “Go and apologize to Aria, so that she can forget about this.”

Apologize? Jenna screamed internally. This was too much, she didn’t do anything wrong, but now he wanted her to apologize?

This was outrageous!
