How My Ex Became My Next

“This Gilda, she’s always clashing with our family. How did we ever provoke her to target you time and again?

‘Emily, rest assured! I will demand an explanation from her for this..

“Your injuries are so severe, that horse track cannot be absolved of blame.”

Emily continued to rant, “Mom, that horse track is owned by Gilda’s current boyfriend. They’re all in this together.”

“This is outrageous! Do they really think the Harrington family can be bullied like this?” Luna was red with raga to see her only daughter being bullied so brazenly!

As Luna was about to storm out, Jensen stood firmly at the door.

Luna scoffed. “Jensen, you’ve heard everything. It’s all that bitch Gilda’s doing. This time, you must not let her off.”

Jensen’s lips curled into a mocking smile. “Aunt Luna, it seems you don’t know your daughter well.”

Confused, Luna asked, “What do you mean?”

Jensen bluntly dropped the bombshell. “I was there at the scene.”

Luna was startled, instinctively retorting, “Jensen, you’re not still siding with that bitch Gilda, are you?

“After how she treated Emily, your mother and sister, you are still standing up for her? Are you even part of the Harrington family?”

Luna’s words hit Jensen like a hammer, striking at his soft spot.

The gunshot from three years ago felt like it had just been fired, hitting him where it hurt most.

He always believed that marrying Gilda and treating her as air in the household would suffice.

During those three years, she was indeed obedient, fulfilling the job of a wife without causing him any trouble.

Even when faced with her mother–in–law’s difficulties, her sister–in–law’s troublemaking, and the overall unfriendliness from his family, she endured it all with extreme patience. She never once complained to him, and he was completely oblivious to her suffering.

Jensen couldn’t wrap his mind around how she had managed to get through those days.

Now, post–divorce, he realized just how egregiously wrong he had been

“Aunt Luna, let me be clear. Today’s incident has nothing to do with Gilda. If you go after her, you’re going after me. From now on, your family will not receive a penny from me!”

Luna was so furious she nearly choked on her rage.

A

Pointing at Jensen, she struggled to find words. Jensen, have you lost your mind? Has that woman bewitched you?”

“Aunt Luna, I’ve said all I have to say. Think carefully!”

Luna was devastated but dared not go against Jensen as her family’s livelihood depended on the Harrington Corporation.

Without Jensen’s support, they couldn’t survive.

Just then, Luna caught sight of Gilda standing not too far away and yelled furiously. “You wretch, you dare to come here?” Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

As she made to lunge forward, Jensen grabbed her wrist. “Aunt Luna, did you forget what I just said?”

Luna’s heart skipped a beat.

Feeling as if all her strength had been drained, she leaned against the wall to keep from falling.

Gilda didn’t pay any attention to Luna but walked straight towards Jensen.

Without a moment’s hesitation, she pulled out her phone and handed it to him. “The evidence is here. Take a look.”

Jensen knew what was inside without needing to even look at it.

“Gilda, I’m sorry!”
