Getting My Ex-wife Back

Chapter 317 Richard Family’s Meeting (Part Two)



“Henry, go ahead and tell us what you’ve done.” Trevor asked him coldly.

His face turned pale, Henry looked at the desperate Georgia and Aria who were standing next to him. He opened his mouth and had wanted to say something, but after a while, he turned his head away and opened his mouth to speak.

“Henry…” Aria squealed.

“Aria, if I don’t say it, I will be put behind bars. The police are all here today. I have no choice. They had already found the evidence. I can only tell them the truth.” When he heard Aria’s cries, Henry swiveled his head towards her and said helplessly, “I’m sorry, Aria. I don’t want to go to jail yet. I’ve already said before that if anything happens, I won’t be responsible.”

After that, he cleared his throat and no longer hesitated. He said loudly and clearly, “My cousin Aria had offered me 25 million dollars and asked me to find Brock’s minions. She gave them 20 million dollars and asked them to find a way to get rid of the child in Jenna’s belly. The other five million dollars had been gifted to me as a reward.”

As soon as he finished his sentence, everyone below the stage burst into an uproar.

This was such shocking and terrifying news.

Not to mention the fact that Jenna was pregnant and only a few people were aware about it.

However, spending the money to get rid of the child in her stomach was too cruel!

Only a person with their heart so wretched would do something like that.

Shrill rebukes rippled through the crowd.

Georgia was also shocked. She had never thought that Aria was capable of doing such a thing, and she had not been privy to any of this. If she had known, she would have stopped her. After all, it was against the law to do so. This had gone too far.

“What do you think? Do you still have any other excuses now? Henry is your cousin. Don’t tell me you don’t know him,” Trevor asked Aria, who was rooted in place, her expression sorrowful.

Aria collapsed to the ground.

“Norton, step forward.” After saying these words, he was no longer concerned with Aria and called out to the crowd below.

Norton’s legs were already trembling so much that he could not even lift his feet. He just stood there blankly.

“Go, bring him here.” Trevor glanced at Claude, who had a gloomy look on his face while sitting at the side, and ordered the staff member next to him.

After a while, Norton walked over while being held by others.

“You son of a b*tch.” Trevor slammed his hand on the wheelchair and roared, “Tell us all the disgraceful things you’ve done and try to earn your way into our good graces now. Otherwise, I won’t let go of the fact that you had unplugged my life support. Realize that this is a deliberate murder attempt. The law will never let you off the hook.”

Upon hearing this, Norton’s knees gave way and he immediately knelt down and burst into tears. “Uncle, please don’t. I don’t want to go to jail. I was forced to do it. Please let me go.”

“Tell us at once.” Claude seemed to have realized something as the cogs in his mind clicked into place. What else had this b*stard done? He immediately charged forward and kicked him harshly.

Norton held his head while trembling all over. He said, “Don’t hit me. I’ll tell you everything. I’ll say it.”

The room settled into silence again.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

That day, almost everyone was stupefied. They were taken by surprise with the sudden truth and the unknown plot.

“Uncle Richards, Grandma, I have loved Jenna back when I was still in college. Yet, Grandma was unfair and insisted that Jenna should marry Hansen. Do you know how much pain I was in? Watching the person I love became someone else’s wife and seeing them everyday. I swore to take her back.

That day, Aria looked for me and said that as long as I did what she asked, I could get Jenna while she can have Hansen. She wanted to be the young madam of the Richards family. She was so obsessed with the idea. At that time, I wasn’t thinking straight and I actually agreed to her suggestions. I found a security service company outside and Aria gave me money. Then, she asked Mattias to sleep with Jenna. She wanted to destroy her chastity and reputation. At that time, everyone knew that Hansen didn’t like Jenna. Their relationship was very rocky. As long as there was a stain on her, Hansen would definitely divorce her. Surely enough, after the incident, although they didn’t get divorced, Jenna had gone abroad. Aria took the opportunity to come to Hansen’s side. When he was at his worst, the stock market at that time was also falling. Then, Aria used Earl’s connections to stabilize the stocks and gained his trust. So, one thing led to another.

Unfortunately, something happened to Javon. So, Jenna returned. At this time, Aria felt that her position was not guaranteed. When Hansen repeatedly refused to marry her, she looked for me again, threatened me with matters regarding Javon, and had asked me to spike Hansen’s wine to lead him to spend a night with her. She planned to conceive his child so that Hansen would have no choice but to marry her, but the plot three years ago was discovered by Uncle Richards’s subordinate. Before he fainted, he already knew everything. Aria threatened me again as she was afraid that he would stop the marriage after he woke up. She asked me to think of a way to prevent Uncle Richards from waking up. I was worried and frightened. I was afraid of going to jail. Therefore, I repeatedly went to the hospital to remove Uncle Richards’ life support. I didn’t want him to wake up. I deserve to die. This woman, however, threatened me with Javon’s death. I only know now that Javon’s death had been caused by Earl. Her father killed him. Yet, she still had to shift the blame on me. It’s no wonder Earl agreed to bail me out. It turned out that whatever he did was just to hang the crime of Javon’s death above my head. What goes around comes around. In the end, this cunning old fox was hoisted by his own petard. Now, I regret not listening to Hansen. I already knew my mistakes. This is everything I did. It is absolutely true. I have never done anything else. Uncle Richards, I’m sorry. Please forgive me. ”

Norton laid out the whole story clearly. After he finished his words, he began to bawl his eyes out.

Hansen clenched his fists hard as he listened to their plot. He was so angry that his eyes turned red. He pointed at Norton and snapped. “Norton, where was your humanity when you did all these?”

Reprimanded by Hansen, Norton wiped away his tears. He suddenly raised his head and retorted, “Yes, I did something wrong and I’m not a decent human being. But you? You couldn’t distinguish right from wrong and you were so messed up when it comes to feelings. You fell in love with Jenna when you were in college. Then, did you fulfil your responsibilities as a husband? If you were wise and far-sighted enough in relationships, these incidents would not have happened. I’ve wronged everyone, but you failed Jenna even more. How many times have you humiliated her and allowed her to suffer? You don’t have the right to point your finger at me.”

Hansen froze for a moment. His tight fist loosened up.

Even though Norton’s words were unpleasant to his ears, they were true. It was as if a knife had pierced his heart and blood was flowing freely from it.

Wearily, he lowered his hand that was pointing at Norton. His mind was in a complete mess. All of the past events had surfaced before his eyes, and his heart began to throb in pain.

Though Norton was a sinner, Hansen was also stupid. He had hurt the woman he loved deeply. Before uncovering the truth, he had hurt her cruelly and for that, he was responsible.

Slowly, he lowered his head.

“Oh no, Madam Maria has passed out,” exclaimed someone in the crowd.

When Maria heard all the sins that Norton had committed, she was in complete disbelief. No longer able to bear such a blow, she fainted on the spot.

“Mom!” Norton ran towards her wildly. He held Maria in his arms and let out a heart-wrenching cry.

Throughout those years in the house outside Richards Manor, Maria had taken care of him and his sister and often shed tears in secret. From then on, he had vowed to be successful in the future and make his mother happy. Yet, at this moment, not only did he fail to make her happy, he also completely destroyed her hopes and dreams.

He was about to go crazy.

“Quick, take her to the hospital quickly,” Claude shouted to the security guard next to him after he approached them with a gloomy face and saw Maria.

After a while, Butler Maud brought the servants to help Maria up and quickly rushed her to the hospital.

Jordan walked up and handed over all the results of the interrogation to Trevor.

Dahlia from Green Jade Garden, Julian from Ink Garden, and a group of servants who were bribed by Aria were all immediately driven out of Richards Manor by Trevor.

Aria remained frozen, her face ashen.

“Hansen, I did all of this just because I love you. Please, let me go.” The matter had seen the light of the day and Aria could no longer hide it. She ran towards Hansen and hugged him. She started playing the love card and tried her best to ask for help.

In the past, whenever she had cried and asked him for help, even if he did not love her, he would not do anything cruel to her. That day, she was mired in an unfortunate situation. In a haste, she could only use this way to beg him.

At this point, it was likely that Hansen was the only person who could save her.

However, Hansen’s face was terrifyingly grim. His eyes were swirling with sorrow, pain, and mostly anger.

Until then, Hansen finally understood the whole situation when Trevor had explained the whole process after he woke up. At this time, when he saw that Aria was still brazenly asking him for help, he suppressed the anger in his heart and pushed her away coldly. He forced himself to overcome the impulse to strangle her to death. He calmed down and gritted his teeth. He then asked, word for word, “Aria, I only ask you two questions now. Answer me truthfully. If you answer truthfully, I may still have some mercy. Otherwise, not only will you be in jail, but your whole life will also be ruined beyond redemption.”

He shoved her hand away that was about to grab him again. Taking two steps back, he stood still with a cold smile on his face.

“Hansen, go ahead. I’ll listen to everything you say. I only beg you not to abandon me.” Aria’s face was filled with tears and fear. She kept nodding her head and said, “Hansen, I love you. I did these things because I loved you too much. I have wronged Jenna, but I can’t lose you. If I lose you, I won’t be able to live any longer.”

She collapsed to the ground and cried sorrowfully. Her face was the personification of helplessness and anticipation. She simply stared at Hansen.

Hansen squatted down and looked at her calmly with his cold eyes. He asked calmly, “Why did you find someone to get rid the child in Jenna’s stomach? Why?”

Aria’s eyes were dull. Pain could be recognized in them. She answered blankly. “Hansen, I had no choice. In order to keep the child in my womb and retain my benefits, I had to do this. Think about it. If the child in her womb is born, it would threaten my livelihood forever. Besides, if you have that child, you would never love my child. So, this is all I could do.”

“So, even she thinks that the child in Jenna’s womb is mine!” Hansen lowered his head and muttered to himself. Even a woman like Aria believed that Jenna was carrying his child, but Jenna had told him that that child was not his? This d*mned woman!

Aria looked at him in confusion.

The corners of Hansen’s mouth formed a curve. He raised his head again to stare at Aria and asked sternly, “Alright, I’ll ask you now, who exactly is the father of the child in your belly?”

As soon as she heard this, Aria’s heart trembled, her face turned as white as a sheet.
