Getting My Ex-wife Back

“Hansen, I’m not forcing you but if you don’t marry Aria, the Richards Group would definitely go out of business and many people would lose their jobs. Lots of companies in A city will come to snatch our properties. It’s difficult to start a new company. Do you remember Simon who used to be well-known in A City? He lost everything just because he went against the officials. The debts amounted to double the value of his property. He couldn’t start over. I do not wish to see the Richards Group in this state.” Marissa seemed to have made up her mind.

“Mom, what about my happiness? What about true love?” Hansen asked coldly. His expression was unreadable.

“Your happiness?” Marissa sighed and asked, “Are you still unsatisfied? You have everything you want. Your future is bright and you are one of the wealthiest men in the world. How many people wished to be in your position? You are going to marry the daughter of the soon-to-be Mayor. Besides, she has your child. What else do you want?”

To Marissa, what Hansen had was enough to make anyone over the moon. Hansen was so ungrateful.

“But, Mom, these are not what I want. I would rather lose everything,” Hansen growled. He didn’t take Marissa’s words to heart.

“Ridiculous.” Marissa hit the table with her fist and bellowed, “Hansen, do you really think you are that capable? If it weren’t for me, your dad, and the connections we made, do you really think you can achieve this much in such a short time? Our connections in the military helped you a lot. Don’t be arrogant. It’s only normal for men in eminent families to marry for the sake of their families. All right, fine if you want to marry Jenna. But, does she even want you? She brought a man to the house and sat back as the man hit you. Are you sure this is what you want? Once you are powerful enough, you can get everything you want. The Richards family had always been fearless. I won’t allow you to make a mistake again.”

“Mom, don’t compare me with those weaklings. I don’t need to rely on women to become successful. I have my own ideas and plans. Even without help, I would be able to grow my business,” Hansen stood up abruptly and retorted.

“You…” Marissa was flustered, seeing that Hansen refused to listen to her. She was so furious that she almost fainted.

“Mom, what’s the matter with you?” Hansen watched as Marissa staggered backward. He immediately drew closer to support her.

“Hansen, you are really going to piss me off.” Hansen supported her to the couch and she burst into tears upon sitting down. “Don’t think I don’t know the current situation of Richards Group. Earl had already issued a warning. After two days, he would take back the land and investigate our projects. What would happen after the investigation is unimaginable.”

Hansen’s expression darkened. After a long silence, he replied in a casual tone.

“Mom, don’t worry. Evil cannot prevail over good. The Richards Group is going to be all right. There is still the law. Early can’t be above it.”

“Son, I’m afraid everything will be too late by then.” Tears coursed down Marissa’s cheeks.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

For a while, Hansen looked troubled. He helped Marissa into her room before he left, looking disheartened.

“Hansen, whether you agree or not, I have already decided the date of your wedding. It will be on the 8th of January.” Marrisa’s voice rang. Hansen was rooted to the spot upon hearing what she said. He staggered away, barely hearing what she said afterwards. His mind was filled with the image of Rayan being intimate with Jenna.

Hansen drove around aimlessly in his Hummer

If Jenna stayed by his side, he would have the courage to go against everyone. He was not afraid of challenges but he was afraid of betrayal, especially by someone he loved.

Maybe he would lose everything and maybe it would be hard for them in the future to start over. However, with Jenna’s talent in designing luxury cars and his ability, he was sure that they would be able to start over.

Nevertheless, Jenna’s betrayal hit him hard.

She backed out and he was left alone. He no longer had the courage to go against everyone. Apart from accepting his fate, he really did not know what to do.

He entered a nightclub and started drinking excessively.

In the ward, Aria was reading a newspaper and a triumphant smile was plastered on her face.

There was a photo of Rayan carrying Jenna in his arms in the newspaper. Hansen was standing beside them, looking flustered and furious.

“Mom, it seems that I will be marrying Hansen soon,” Aria said gleefully after putting down the newspaper.

“Why is that so?” Georgia asked in disbelief.

Aria chuckled and handed Georgia the newspaper. Georgia’s face split into a wide smile upon reading the headline. She finally found some satisfaction, her happiness coming from the bottom of her heart.

Jenna had backed out on her own and promised to let Aria inherit Richards Group. It was amazing!

Sure enough, Marissa brought good news the next day.

“Georgia, I’m here to tell you some good news,” Marissa announced with a smile as she entered the ward.

“Oh, and what is that?” Georgia asked knowingly as she assumed an air of indifference.

“Hansen is going to marry Aria, she is going to become my daughter-in-law.” Marissa flashed a smile at Aria, trying to please her.

She only had one son. She was not going to offend Aria.

Aria blushed and her face lit up with joy.

“Marissa, when is our wedding?” Aria asked shyly.

“I’ve decided on the date. The wedding is scheduled to be held on the 8th next month.” Marissa was delighted.

Georgia was over the moon. Everything was finally decided. She laughed heartily and teased, “Looks like Aria will have a happy time at the Richards family in the future. Marissa, you’re so kind, Aria will definitely treat you well.”

“Mom, I know. Don’t worry, I will be happy.” After hearing the news, Aria was thrilled.

Marissa was beaming from ear to ear when she heard their conversation.

The atmosphere in the ward was joyful!

Aria felt that a huge weight had been lifted off her shoulders.

She was getting married on the 8th of January!

What did this mean? It meant that in only ten days, she would be married to Hansen. She was going to be a part of the Richards family.

She was truly ecstatic!

Her efforts all these years had finally paid off.

The next day.

Every media in A city was announcing the wedding date between Hansen of the Richards Group and Aria, the daughter of the deputy mayor, which would be held on the 8th of January.

The headlines read, “Aria McAdams marrying Hansen Richards, officially becoming Mrs. Richards.”

Some newspapers even reported that Aria was already pregnant and the child belonged to Hansen.

For a while, their wedding appeared on every headline and it was the hottest gossip in town.

Everyone was anticipating their wedding ceremony as it would definitely be grand and memorable. Lots of officials and eminent families would be attending their wedding.

At the same time.

The media also discovered Jenna’s identity and her relationship with Hansen. She was described as a mistress who intervened in Aria’s and Hansen’s relationship aside from having an affair with Rayan herself.

Rumors spread like wildfire, mostly criticizing her for her actions although some media sympathized with her regarding her past.

Nevertheless, most medias described her as a sl*t.

The green pines and verdant cypresses in Rayan’s garden made it very beautiful.

It was indeed unique. Although it was winter, the garden was surrounded by lush greenery. The sight lifted Jenna’s mood.

She wandered in the garden with a faint smile on her face. The sorrow in her eyes made Rayan’s heart go out for her.

He accompanied her on a walk in the garden.

Due to the rumors and presence of reporters, she could no longer return to Richards Manor. As soon as she appeared, the reporters would surround her immediately. She was pregnant and was unable to bear the stress.

Hence, she chose to remain at Rayan’s house.

Ever since Hansen agreed to marry Aria and satisfy Earl’s request, she was no longer worried about Vivian’s safety and she could foresee that the Richards family would only gain more power in the future. The Richards Group would be out of harm’s way too.

Everything fell into place once she left.

Although it was hard for her to leave, she was relieved that everything had been resolved.

It was at this moment that she decided to forgive Norton.

Of course, she decided to forgive Norton for the sake of Sabrina.

Sabrina loved Norton, and Norton was ready to marry her.

Norton was right.

True love was rare among those in prestigious families. Only a fool like her would believe that true love was possible. Her situation proved that Norton was right.

She wished to fulfill Sabrina’s wish to marry Norton; it would make Sabrina’s life perfect. Besides, Norton should have changed after this painful experience.
