Getting My Ex-wife Back

“Speak. Tell me your name, who you are, and what you’ve done,” Hansen barked at him sternly.

Hansen barely returned to the company for the past few days. He and Jordan spent the nights interrogating about what had happened in Richards Group mansion. These people had already confessed the truth. The reason why they held the meeting this day was to let everyone know the truth behind the matter and some untold things. They even specially invited several reliable media for that. When the time came, they would unravel some things to the public and display to others how fair and just the Richards Group was in handing matters.

Raising his head, the young man cleared his throat. He then introduced himself, “My name is Mattias Forbes and I started a private security service company. Three years ago, an exceedingly noble lady had approached me and gave me five hundred thousand dollars to sleep with a woman at Zevery Hotel. As long as I slept with her, the money would be mine. At that time, my company happened to be in a dire need of cash. So, I was ecstatic to learn of such a good deal. I immediately agreed to it. I waited in the room that day after she let me take some aphrodisiac. When the time came, the doorbell rang and I saw her walking in with an unconscious woman. She told me to have as much fun as I wished. The lady had already helped the unconscious woman remove her clothes. It was only then I realised that the woman was wrapped in nothing but a bedsheet. She threw her on the bed and left in a hurry. I had some aphrodisiac at the time and couldn’t help myself. The woman’s face and neck were exposed. Her skin was very fair. She was an absolute beauty. At that time, my veins were pumping with blood and I couldn’t control it. When I was about to outrage her modesty, the door swung open and a very dignified old man rushed in. He yelled at me while pointing at me. I was scared out of my wits at the time. I didn’t expect that the old man would pass out from being in so much rage. At this moment, I only know that the old man is the famous Mr. Trevor Richards and that woman is his daughter-in-law, Miss Jenna Murphy. Although I did promise to violate her, I didn’t have the time to make it happen. Please be considerate and show your mercy when judging me.”

His voice was very loud and clear. Perhaps he had said it in order to gain a lenient punishment, as he was very cooperative and his explanation also possessed some clarity.

Hansen’s only expression grew darker over time. The scene from that day kept replaying in his mind. Jenna was hugging the bedsheet and curling up in a corner. Her tearful eyes were filled with sorrow and helplessness as she looked at him. She kept repeating, “Hansen, this has nothing to do with me. I really don’t know what’s going on. Please trust me.”

At that time, he had been so angry that he blamed her for everything that had happened. In the grip of madness, he had tormented her that day.

It seemed that he could not bear to continue thinking about it and closed his eyes.

His fingers were curled up. His nails pierced into the palm of his hand. His teeth was biting into his rosy pink lip until it turned pale, and his eyes were super frightening. He asked through his clenched teeth, “Mr. Forbes, who ordered you to do it?”

Nervousness was evident on Mattias’s face as he said, “Mr. Richards, I didn’t know her real identity at first, but some time ago, she came to me again and wanted me to sneak into Vivian Delia’s bedroom to look for the Ocean Heart. It was only then did I know that she was the daughter of Mayor McAdams, Miss Aria.”

“Nonsense. You’re slandering me.” Aria finally came to her senses, her face filled with panic. She had already shrunk into a ball. When Mattias mentioned her name, she immediately snapped back to reality as if she had a trained reflex. Aware of what was going to happen next, she immediately shouted angrily, “Hansen, don’t believe him. He’s just spouting nonsense to slander me. I don’t know him at all.”

Agitation was dripping in Aria’s words. She was about to run up to the stage to deal with the man.

“Stop right there!” Hansen bellowed at her.

Aria stood still, her face blanched. She beheld Hansen’s indifferent and distant face, not daring to take another step forward.

“Mr. Richards, I did not falsely accuse her. It was she who ordered me. This time she gave me a 100 thousand dollars as a reward.” Mattias argued.

Georgia’s face turned pale. Seeing that her daughter was surrounded by the crowd, she understood that the purpose of this family meeting was mainly to aim at her daughter. Sneering, she immediately stepped forward to hold Aria. Her tone forbidding, she said to Hansen, “Hansen, I know what you’re thinking. You think that our family doesn’t have power anymore after Earl lost his position, huh? You wanted to make use of this opportunity to avoid marrying my daughter, but you were afraid that others would criticize you. Hence, you could only find such an excuse to humiliate my daughter. Let me tell you, it is not as easy as this. She is pregnant with your child. It’s impossible for you to shirk away from it.”

Georgia shouted with madness, lest the world did not know.

The whole meeting room was plunged into silence.

Georgia’s words caused the corner of Hansen’s mouth to curl into a disdainful smile. Ignoring Georgia, he asked Aria directly, “Until now, you still want to deny what you did to Jenna three years ago? The extent of your vicious heart is beyond my comprehension.”

Aria’s face turned even paler. Her whole body was trembling and she almost stumbled. However, since there was no proof, she would not admit defeat. She immediately burst into tears and said in a plaintive voice, “Hansen, it doesn’t matter if you don’t want to marry me. However, you can’t involve a strange man whom I don’t know to slander me like this. What you did to me is very unfair. I won’t give in and I won’t let anyone believe it.”

“Really?” Hansen was incensed. He did not expect the woman in front of him to be so shameless. The witness had been brought here already, yet not only did she still not admit it, she even put on a show with her sob story. As if he was really slandering her.

How did he only find out that this woman was so despicable? However, the more she acted like this, the more he wanted to expose her horrible true colors this day and seek justice for Jenna.

He was never a soft-hearted person. In the past, he’d thought it was not worth to be cruel to a woman. Yet, at this moment, it was the first time he had the intention to be cruel to a woman.

This woman was too detestable!

Aria could make out the coldness and anger in Hansen’s eyes. It was horrifying. She had never seen it such callous and detached emotions in him before. It dawned on her that it was impossible for him to marry her and want her. She was afraid that he had already thought it through, and this heartlessness was a response to her.

She was thoroughly unsettled. These days, her father’s demotion had caused a search in their house to confiscate the family’s possession. At this moment, she was left with nothing at all.

Apart from relying on Hansen, she really had nothing else.

She could not let go of this opportunity. Even if she could not win him over, she would not let him abandon her so easily.

As long as she stood her ground and denied that she knew this man, no one could do anything to her. After all, she had not left any evidence in the man’s hands. She could push all the blame on him or denied her participation in these things.

“Hansen, I have been by your side for a few years. I may not have contributed to the Richards Group, but I had worked hard for it. Back then, Richards Group’s stocks were in decline. If I had not utilised my father’s connections, I’m afraid the Richards Group would have fallen long ago. Now, you have achieved success and gained recognition while my father has been demoted. Yet, you still want to use these tricks to get rid of me. Let me tell you, I won’t let you achieve it,” she said, gnashing her teeth. Her face flushed red. She looked as if she wanted to drag him in this, until the end. If things did not go her way, then she would go down with him.

Hansen’s face turned even more indifferent. This woman was acting more recklessly. She was not letting him go. A cold smile appeared on his face.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

His character had never been one where he would compromise after being threatened. Had she confessed honestly, perhaps he would have pitied her a little. However, her clinging onto him would only disgust him further.

It was just that he did not have as many means to deal with such a woman. Otherwise, he would not have been entangled with her at that time.

“It seems that if I don’t show my face today, the truth would never be revealed to the world.” A firm and determined male voice slowly sounded from the backstage.

Everyone was shocked.

They all turned to look at the direction of the voice.

Behind the stage, the wheelchair was slowly pushed over the red carpet, giving out a screeching sound. The wheelchair was slowly moved towards the center. At the same time, everyone shrieked.

“Mr. Richards.”

At this moment, everyone was stunned!

Including Marissa and Hansen.

Trevor had actually woken up.

Not only did he wake up, but his eyes were also shrewd. He did not look like an old man who had been bedridden for three years. Instead, he looked like a highly skilled businessman in the trading industry. His face was slim but he was as calm as he used to be. His aura would not lose to the strong men who were present. He was an old man who had experienced the ups and downs in the trading industry. Even if he was sitting in a wheelchair, his imposing demeanor and cold wrists could faintly reveal the dominance he had that year.

“Trevor.”

“Dad.”

“Mr. Richards.”

…

After a while, the group of people came back to their senses and began greeting him.

Trevor waved his hand at them and said calmly, “I’m here today to get to the bottom of the matter from three years ago. There are still some things that everyone doesn’t know. Men can be poor or down-hearted, but they can’t lose their conscience like this. If I don’t reveal all of this, I’m afraid some people will blatantly tread the fine line between right and wrong. Right now, I’m going to show everyone her terrible behavior. I’m telling you all, you have to be upright in order to gain other’s approval. It will not work if you play tricks and frame others.”

His words were sonorous and powerful.

The room suddenly fell dead silent.

Aria was completely dumbfounded. She had never imagined that Trevor would wake up at this time.

To h*ll with Norton Richards!

She turned her head and stared at Norton who was standing there in a daze as well. He was obviously stumped!

“Bring him in,” said Trevor to the black-suited young man beside him who was pushing him.

“Yes, Mr. Trevor.”

After the young man answered, he walked toward the back of the stage.

After a while, he brought out another young man.

“Henry, why are you here?” Georgia screeched. This young man named Henry was the only son of her younger brother. Why did he come here? Could it be…?

Georgia’s face began to lose color, her whole body started to tremble.
