Chapter 108
No one in the crowd stood up for her. People just watched Madeleine being taken away by the Donovan family’s bodyguards.
After all, no one would feel sad for a home–wrecker.
Soon, all kinds of sighs and exclamation were coming from the crowd.
“The Lynch family is actually out of the Harrington family’s league. They’re so lucky.
“Jensen was lucky to marry Richard’s granddaughter but he was too stupid. He cheated on his wife and
divorced her.”
Jensen was blind. He must be regretting it.”
Discussion continued.
Being gazed at and criticized by everyone, Jensen frowned. With mixed feelings, he stared at Gilda, who was surrounded by the crowd.
From the very beginning of the party, he had been in a state of shock. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
But suddenly, Jensen realized what happened today explained a lot.
He remembered that three years ago, Gilda told him she wanted to marry him but didn’t want to disclose their relationship publicly.
At that time, Jensen felt grateful for her thoughtfulness. After all, he thought who his wife was made no difference and Gilda had been a good wife during their marriage.
Now, after knowing how rich Gilda was, Jensen was curious about why she married him without disclosing her real identity.
Suddenly, Patrick appeared behind Jensen. Patrick said, “Mr. Harrington, I want to have a word with you privately. It’s about the entanglement between you and my sister.”
Jensen looked away from Gilda and still looked calm. Even when he was being talked about by everyone around him, he still looked perfectly composed.
This kind of ability to always stay calm was outstanding. Put aside the prejudices, Jensen was indeed a good man, good enough to become a member of the Lynch family.
Jensen said, “Mr. Lynch, what do want to tell me?”
Patrick said frankly, “Mr. Harrington, whatever happened between you and Gilda in the past or any misunderstanding between you two is all over.”
Jensen said, “So what?” Jensen’s tone was unruly. His pride didn’t allow him to retreat.

Patrick was surprised that Patrick was a bit difficult to deal with as it was rumored.

Patrick said, “Mr. Harrington, I know you’re reasonable. Let’s be honest. Gilda had suffered enough as your wife. What the Harrington family has done is not disgraceful. If we want to do a thorough investigation into it, the Lynch family will find everything out and no one can get away with it. You know we can do
that.”
Jensen said, “Really? But love and emotions can be calculated and investigated. Otherwise, people wouldn’t be blind in love. Mr. Lynch, you’re Gilda’s brother so I respect you. But that doesn’t mean you can interfere with my personal feelings. No one’s going to get involved with my relationship with Gilda.”
Hearing this, Patrick raised his eyebrow and said, “I appreciate your guts, Mr. Harrington. But aren’t you afraid of the Lynch family? Although the Harrington family is also quite influential in Allath, you’re like powerless ants to us.” Clearly, what Patrick was suggesting to Jensen was a threat.
But Jensen wasn’t scared. “Even if you’re right, I want to give it a shot.”
Jensen and Patrick’s eyes met. The atmosphere was thick with tension. Patrick snorted, “Mr. Harrington, let’s wait and see.
It was no doubt Jensen’s declaration of war but Jensen wasn’t scared at all. He caught a glimpse of Gilda, who was standing beside Richard not far away from him. Her smile was so stunning and he couldn’t help walking over to her.
