Getting My Ex-wife Back

Hansen sat on the couch in the office, feeling depressed and annoyed.

It was already late at night and he did not know where to go. His heart felt empty and he was exhausted and weary.

He opened the door to the bedroom in his office and went to take a cold shower. After finishing his takeaway meal, he sat on the couch and started smoking a cigar.

After a while, his phone rang. He reached for his phone and answered it as he placed the phone near to his ear.

“Hello,” the person on the other end of the line greeted.

“Mr. Richards,” Alvin’s low and deep voice drifted into his ears, “I’ve found some important information.”

Hansen’s eyes turned cold. After thinking for a while, he immediately ordered, “Come here immediately. I’m in the office.”

“Okay,” Alvin answered and hung up.

Hansen looked a little anxious. His eyes darkened and he was inexplicably nervous.

Before he even finished smoking his cigar, Alvin had already arrived.

“Mr. Richards, things don’t seem entirely right. Ms. Murphy really didn’t join the Richards Group just for the money,” Alvin immediately said as he walked into the office, “Through my investigation, I have discovered an important piece of information today. Ms. Murphy’s father, Javon, died some time ago.”

“What?” Hansen stood up at the sudden news and snapped at Alvin, “What nonsense are you talking about? This is a matter of life and death. This is not funny.”

Alvin’s expression was indifferent. He said confidently, “Mr. Richards, I’m telling the truth. I’ve just finished my investigation today and went to the Criminal Investigation Public Security Bureau to confirm it.”

Chills began to run up from the soles of Hansen’s feet, to the top of his head.

“Is it true that Javon Murphy is dead?” Hansen asked in a low voice again, “How could this be possible?”

Javon was a very influential administrative official in A city. How could it be possible that he had not heard the news of his passing? He followed the news every day. Magazines, newspapers, and even TV news, did not broadcast the news. How could it be possible? That was no way.

He didn’t believe it. He shook his head and muttered to himself.

“Mr. Richards, it’s absolutely true!” Alvin assured Hansen when he saw that he refused to believe it, “I didn’t believe it at first either, but later, Cornell, the Director of the Public Security Bureau, personally showed me the file. It was only then that I believed it.”

“How did he die?” Hansen stubbed out his cigar and sat up straight. His face was a little pale, and he became more solemn and looked nervous.

“Mr. Richards, based on the surveillance camera footage released by the Public Security Bureau, he was hit by a luxury car, which Ms. Murphy should have known. The car was a Panica made by the Richards Group. If I’m not mistaken, it should be the one that was originally parked at Green Mountain Automobile City. The color of the car has been changed, but the exterior remains the same. Ms. Murphy is well versed in designing cars, so I’m sure she recognizes the car.”

So that’s it! Hansen was suddenly enlightened. When Jenna saw that car at the riverbank that day it made sense now that she didn’t even care about her life and tried to rush down!

It turned out to be related to her father’s death!

She came to the Richards Group just for the car! As for the other car, it was just for the purpose of investigation!

“It’s strange because Javon was not a commoner. Why didn’t the media disclose anything about his death, not even a word? It’s truly remarkable!” Hansen slumped on the couch, puzzled, as he asked Alvin.

“Mr. Richards, this is where I find it tricky. Obviously, this is a conspiracy. Someone must have deliberately covered up the truth,” Alvin said almost certainly.

Hansen’s eyebrows were furrowed, and his gaze was deep and sharp. He spoke in a low voice.

“So, you also think that Javon’s death has something to do with that Panica we had in the Richards Group!” He turned his gaze to Alvin.NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

“Mr. Richards, it’s hard to say before there’s any definite evidence,” Alvin hesitated and was cautious, not knowing whether something should be said or not.

It turned out that Jenna came back to work in the Richards Group to investigate the truth behind her father’s death. It seemed that she didn’t really want to work in the Richards Group. How could a divorced woman return to her ex-husband’s company! His mother’s suspicion of her was correct!

Hansen had an enigmatic smile on his face, but his heart was inexplicably sad and empty.

Javon was dead. His father-in-law was dead. At that time, they probably hadn’t divorced yet, which meant that he was still his son-in-law at that time, yet he didn’t know!

Not only did she not tell him, even though she suspected the car from his company, she didn’t tell him that either. What did that mean?

Hansen was very upset.

Did she suspect that it was him? Maybe she didn’t regard him as her husband at all.

That was why she came back in a hurry. It turned out that something had happened but she had no intention of telling him at all?

There was a bitter smile on his face, mingled with self-mockery and helplessness. She treated him just like a passer-by.

“Mr. Richards, Ms. Murphy’s mother was also seriously injured at that time. Later, she had an operation and her lower limbs were amputated at the knees. So actually, Ms. Murphy is in quite a pitiful situation,” Alvin said sympathetically. As Hansen’s special assistant, he knew that he didn’t have the right to speak up, but he had watched Jenna’s every move. To be honest, he admired women like her, who could endure the hardships and continue living their lives. She buried the bitterness in her heart, not letting anyone know, but still wanted to fight against Hansen and the overbearing Richards Group. He was impressed by her tenacity and perseverance, and admired her intelligence and thought it was time to voice out his opinions.

If she had been an ordinary woman, she would have collapsed long ago. Moreover, she had designed so many perfect car models for the Richards Group and was even willing to risk her life to protect Hansen. Even though he wasn’t at the scene that day, he had seen everything in the media. How much courage did it take for such a woman to do so? Moreover, they had already divorced, and Hansen didn’t seem to treat her well at all.

Hansen’s face turned pale, and he could clearly recall in his mind, Jenna’s pale face crying next to him that afternoon, and his heart suddenly tightened.

That night, when she looked for him, she asked for 50 million dollars in compensation. Did it have anything to do with the matter?

Hansen was silent.

“You go ahead and keep an eye on things and keep me posted on anything that happens,” he waved his hand and Alvin left sensibly.

The gaze in Hansen’s eyes became intense and gloomy. Things were really getting more and more complicated! It seemed that these things were related to the Richards family!

If word got out, all of this will undoubtedly have a negative impact on the Richards Group.

He couldn’t help but sneer at the thought of someone daring to play dirty tricks under his nose. At present, the situation was very complicated. The engine number of the car had been deliberately erased. Even if the car was handed over, the police would not be able to suspect the Richards Group. The situation was very unfavorable to Jenna!

Moreover, there were no witnesses nor evidence in the Richards Group. Everything was still a mystery.

However, Javon’s death must have had something to do with the Richards Group.

Hansen was anxious again at the thought that Javon’s death had something to do with his company!

In the past few days, he had ordered Alvin to look into the car. Unexpectedly, he alerted the enemy and the car was deliberately moved to an isolated island with the intention of destroying it which coincidentally happened to be blocked by a stone on the riverbank. Obviously, the criminal was deliberately trying to destroy the evidence and cover up the truth.

He stood up and looked at the city lights in the distance. He recalled Jenna’s teary face as she struggled and cried under him. Suddenly, he felt as if his heart was burning. He turned around and ran outside.

The Collier Manor was empty!

Everything that belonged to her was missing! All the things she brought with her were gone!

She was gone!

He remembered the words he said to her. He told her to go as far away as she could and that he did not want to see her ever again.

The uneasiness in his heart grew. For the first time, he was consumed with guilt and he felt the bitterness in his heart.

He took out his mobile phone and tried to call her number several times in a row. However, he could not get through and it seemed like her phone had been switched off.

Where did she go?

After thinking for a while, Hansen ran downstairs and started the car and headed to Heartfly Community.

Javon was dead. That kind and amiable man was dead. For so many years, he had always thought that Javon wanted to be the head of the Ministry of Finance, which was why he had arranged for his daughter to marry him. He had never gone over to visit them and was never friendly towards them. However, every time the two families went on holiday, he was always smiling, without prejudice.

“Hansen, although status and wealth are important, the most important thing is character. Some things can only be seen clearly through time. I think you will understand my painstaking efforts in the future,” Javon had told him the last time he saw him. They had met in the back garden of the Ink Garden and he deliberately found an opportunity to meet with him. He ignored his indifference and said the sentence earnestly.

At that time, he thought that he was pretending to gain benefits for his daughter! He did not think too much about the meaning of his words.

However, that sentence still had an effect on him. It was then that he began to think about his marriage and decided to improve his relationship with Jenna. He wanted to have a good talk with her and try to get along well with her. After all, he also realized that the fewer enemies he had, the merrier his life would be.

However, what happened afterward was out of his control. How was he supposed to endure when something like that happened? It was not that he was cold and merciless, but it was just unforgivable. He was also a human being, and he also had his emotions, to love and to hate. He was really not to blame for all this!

If Jenna didn’t take the initiative to seek a divorce when she came back from abroad, he would have planned to let bygones be bygones and accepted her as his wife. However, the woman’s pride and stubbornness were extraordinary and had pushed his limits several times. Sometimes he even felt that even if these things hadn’t happened, they wouldn’t have been able to live together peacefully. They were both too competitive and aggressive.
