Getting My Ex-wife Back

Chapter 50 Awkwardness



When Jenna stood on stage like an angel while she was presenting, Rayan’s eyes hardly left her. His face was full of appreciation and indulgence. Hansen noticed this and he felt uncomfortable.

He understood the meaning of Rayan’s smile.

This was a provocation.

Since Hansen had Aria with him now, Rayan could pursue Jenna openly. That was why he was smiling so brightly.

“D*mn,” Hansen cursed in anger from the depth of his heart.

Jenna came down from the stage and saw Hansen walking up the stage holding Aria’s hand. Hansen was energetic, and Aria smiled brightly. Jenna felt it was an eyesore to see them walking together.

She felt as if her heart was filled with rocks.

Today, he had successfully signed a big contract. The transformation of Richards Group was perfectly executed.

She would have nothing to do with this anymore in the future. He did not need her anymore.

There was no reason for her to stay here, she thought to herself.

“Jen,” Rayan approached her gracefully with a gentle smile on his face.

“Brother Rayan, you are here too,” Jenna turned her head and was met with the bright eyes looking at her deeply. The admiration in his bright eyes was obvious.

“Of course, you’re here. I would definitely come to see you.” Rayan was gentle and courteous, “Jen, you have done it again. Losing you is my biggest loss and also the loss of the Whalen Group. I wonder if I still have a chance to invite you back?”

His words were half-joking and half-serious. Jenna was clear about it and couldn’t help smiling.

“Let’s go, let’s sit outside,” Rayan brought it up in time. Jenna was feeling uncomfortable and wanted to relax. When she heard his suggestion, she agreed to it and followed him as they walked outside. Anyway, whatever happened here from now on had nothing to do with her.

The celebration party soon began.

On the lawn outside, there were long buffet stations. Each station had their own senior chefs and bartenders to cater to the tastes of the younger crowd. The indoor banquet hall was even more luxurious. Exquisite wine and alcohol were displayed on the tables. There were also desserts and pastries from around the world. Everyone would definitely find something they fancied.

Generally, the more senior crowd stayed in the banquet hall. Jenna didn’t like the dull atmosphere, so she just stood outside.

Rayan stood close by her side.

Light music played and the atmosphere was enchanting.

“Cheers!” Rayan picked up the champagne in his hand and raised the glass to Jenna. Jenna changed into a fashionable dress during the break. She looked cheerful and lively.

She smiled faintly and raised her glass.

Her lips had just touched the glass, but before the champagne could slip into her mouth, she stopped her movements.

Her eyes were fixed in front of her, and her heart was about to jump out. There was an embarrassed look on her face.

Hansen was walking towards her in his suit, with a rose-colored corsage on his chest. The edges of the corsage were lined with a circle of bright violets.

He looked personable, noble, and elegant.

He stuck one of his hands in his trouser pocket, and held a glass of champagne with the other one hand. He walked steadily, with a convergent and confident smile on his face. He looked exuberant and charming.

Jenna suddenly saw the chill in his eyes. Although he had a smile on his face and he greeted other people from time to time, Jenna felt that his eyes were shooting straight at her, like a ball of thorns.

There was a trace of inexplicable tension, but she quickly felt relieved.

Aria was still on his arm!

If she guessed right, he should have come over for a toast out of courtesy.

Sure enough, someone stopped him and greeted him. He clinked glasses and toasted with them politely. Aria stood beside him as the hostess and conversed with the guests.

Jenna smiled bitterly in her heart!

Why did she still think of him?

She should stop having thoughts about Hansen. It had nothing to do with her. He had already said that he would agree to her request after the press conference.

He was letting her go, letting her live the life she wanted. He was also liberating himself. After all, he had a beautiful woman on his arm.

How could she not understand?

After all, they had to start over with their own lives.

She gave a helpless smile.

Rayan looked at her deeply, and he didn’t look away for a second.

The expressions on her face fell into his eyes and his heart. He was deep in thought.

What kind of woman was Jenna? Although he had only known her for only about half a year, he was clear.

She was the strongest, most motivated, most tenacious, kindest, most capable, and most conscientious woman he had ever met. Before her, he had never seen such a woman. Her temperament was low-key and noble, and even if there were thousands of lights shining on her, she did not show a hint of hypocrisy.

In fact, what attracted him was not her stunning appearance. He had seen many beautiful women. Few women could attract him simply because of their beauty. What he valued more was her wisdom. Her beautiful qualities, simple and unpretentious, deeply attracted him. He fell head over heels for her.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

He had not known her in her first twenty-five years, so there was nothing he could have done.

However, she still had a long life in front of her. If he could be with her, what a wonderful thing it would be!

Therefore, he would not give up. Unless she was married and was living a happy life!

However, she was still stuck in the past. He was patient enough to wait for her, for the day she would willingly be with him.

Just now, when Jenna saw Hansen walking out holding Aria’s hand, he picked up the pain in her eyes.

This meant that she had not let go yet. She still needed some time.

Time could make people forget everything; he firmly believed in this.

There was no need to be in a hurry.

“Jen, drink some champagne,” he said softly.

“Okay,” Jenna raised her glass and stopped looking at Hansen and Aria.

She smiled at Rayan.

“Aria, go inside and entertain your father for me. Take good care of him,” Hansen handed the champagne to Aria and smiled gently.

Aria’s heart sank as she took the champagne. She was unwilling. When she saw how Hansen’s burning eyes fell on Jenna, she felt bitter in her heart. Today, she had arranged for the emcee to introduce her as Hansen’s fiancee when they went on stage, but in the end, the emcee introduced her as the Vice President of the Richards Group.

She was furious. After she inquired about it, she found out that it was Hansen who made the change. At that time, she was burning with anger and was full of grievances.

However, Hansen’s explanation was that he didn’t want the media to focus on this matter and take away the spotlight from the press conference. She had no choice but to swallow her anger.

But now, he was trying to send her away, which made her feel very dissatisfied.

However, she just smiled and nodded, “Okay, my father is talking to some politicians in the banquet hall. You have to come quickly later. It’s only polite to do so.”

Hansen’s smile was a little stiff. He patted her shoulder and said, “Okay, sorry for the trouble.”

At this time, it was already late at night. The weather was hot during daytime, but once the night came, Jenna felt cold.

She didn’t want to see Hansen and Aria acting intimately, so she turned her back against them.

Suddenly the glass in her hand was taken away, and a strong aura surrounded her. Jenna quickly realized who was coming and turned around in surprise.

Hansen grabbed the glass in her hand and smiled broadly at Rayan, “Mr. Whalen, thank you for coming. Here’s a toast to you.”

Hansen took the glass and drank it.

Rayan’s face was full of smiles, and he also politely clinked his glasses and finished the drink in his hand.

Jenna’s hands were empty, and she was annoyed. There were so many glasses of champagne on the table but Hansen just had to take the one in her hand. She did not know what he’s up to, but she knew he did it on purpose!

The melodious music began.

“Jen, come, let’s dance.” Rayan saw the hostility in Hansen’s eyes. While the music sounded, he reached out his hand to Jenna.

“Okay.” Jenna was in a bad mood. She could only watch as Hansen and Aria hugged each other. However, he came over to cause trouble when all she did was sitting alongside Rayan. She was angry, so she took this opportunity to leave him.

Although Hansen was not interested in her and did not like her, it didn’t mean that no man appreciated her.

She put her delicate hands in Rayan’s palm. Rayan smiled, grabbed her hands, and pulled her forward.

“Rayan,” Hansen smiled. He stretched out his long arm and pulled Jenna into his arms. He wrapped his arms around her shoulders and his hand fell right on her chest.

Jenna suddenly became furious. Hansen actually put his hand on her chest in front of many people.

He did it on purpose! He wanted to humiliate her in public!

Rayan’s eyes darkened!

Jenna’s face was full of anger. She was about to lose her temper when she heard Hansen’s words.

“Mr. Whalen, why are you here with my employee? Don’t you have to accompany your fiancee?”

His voice was deep and clear with charm, but it was extremely harsh to Jenna’s ears.

“Fiancee? Rayan’s fiancee?” Jenna’s body stiffened and there was a surprised look on her face.

“Is Rayan’s fiancee here?” Jenna was surprised in her heart and started looking around.

A woman was sitting at a table not far away. She had long curly hair and behaved nobly and elegantly. She looked like she was in her thirties. Her face was delicate and beautiful, and she was quietly looking at Jenna with a glass of champagne in her hand.

There was a faint sadness on her face, but the light in her eyes was calm.

Jenna’s breathing became shallow in one second.

Where had she seen this woman before?

Soon, she came to her senses.

Wasn’t this woman the one she saw in Sky Blue Restaurant that night?

At that time, the woman just sat there quietly and looked at her.

She did not say a word.

Jenna felt a chill in her spine. Only then did she know why she always felt that there was a pair of eyes staring at her.

It turned out to be her, Rayan’s fiancee.

She just kept staring at Jenna. Did she know about their relationship?

She was so embarrassed that she wanted to bury her head in a hole.

But on second thought, why would she do this? There was nothing between her and Rayan!

She didn’t destroy their relationship, so why did she panic?

Rayan also looked back at her. There was a flash in his eyes and his face instantly turned gloomy.

He looked at Hansen, whose eyes were full of pride and with sparks bursting. Finally, he walked towards the woman.

“Are you disappointed?” After Rayan left, Hansen asked sarcastically. His hand was still on her chest, and he had no intention of taking it away at all. The light in his eyes was cold, “Who told you to wear this! Are you trying to seduce married men?”

His words were vicious, but the most hateful thing was that there was a hint of pride in his voice.

Jenna was so angry that her lungs almost exploded.

Only then did she understand why he was so kind to invite her to dinner that day. He wanted Rayan’s fiancee to see her. What a wicked man.

She thought that after spending so many days together, he would become more human-like. She did not expect that he would be so mean to her. It was too much.

Was it fun to watch her being embarrassed?
