The Wealthy Divorcee How My Friends Think of Her
This new lovers' restaurant opened right above Mark's restaurant. It was very popular, so Mark had to come and experience it himself and even dragged Rex with him.The waiter stressed over and over again that this was a lovers' restaurant. Mark winked at Rex and lightly tugged on Rex's arm. "Don't we look like acouple?""Mark, Rex, what a coincidence.." A man and a woman walked over to them. Daryl Black looked like a typical gentry, and the woman holding Daryl's arm was a recently popular social media influencer with a small common-looking face and big eyes.Mark snorted lightly. "Why are you here?""Liza said this place is nice, so we came to check it out. Isn't this a lovers' restaurant?" Daryl implied something and covered his mouth to hold back his laughter.They were all childhood buddies, so there was no need to evade each other. Rex scowled and glared at Mark.Daryl felt amused since it was rare to see Rex at a loss like this. He did not leave and invited himself to their table
The Wealthy Divorcee He's Blind to Divorce A Stunning Woman.
After that, Rex stood up and left, leaving the pale-faced Daryl behind.Mark chased after Rex. This must be related to Jenna again. That woman's troublesome."Rex, why do you look so upset? We're all bros. You know that Daryl's always been straightforward.Don't take whatever he said to heart."Rex also knew that he had overreacted and did not expect to have lost control of his emotions like that. It was just that when he found out about these things that he should have known but was kept in the dark, his only thought was, '1s this why Jenna hates me?'His chest felt stuffy and uncomfortable. He stood at the entrance for a while. After getting blown by the cold wind, his mind felt much clearer. He took out a cigarette and lit it. "I know. You can tell himthat it's not directed at him."'I'm just mad at myself!' Rex thought.Mark breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay, but you're not longing for that woman, right?" Rex cast a sidelong glance at him and snorted. He was not bothered to answe
The Wealthy Divorcee Three-way Partnership
The girls looked at Elena's grim face and quieted down. The second floor of the bangquet hall was relatively quiet. When Gino brought Jenna upstairs, an unruly-looking young man in an expensive black shirt stood.The two men shook hands briefly. Gino smiled and said, "Mr. Jinn, it's been a while."Jeffrey Jinn laughed. The corners of his lips hooked up charmingly. "Hello, Mr. Anderson."Without waiting for Gino's introduction, Jeffrey had already moved his gaze onto Jenna. It was an appreciative glance with a decent sense of proportion that was not offensive."Ms. Jenna, you're not only beautiful but also capable. I hope that you won't mind that I put off our dinner and invited you to this banquet instead."Jenna smiled, "Of course not. Congratulations on J&J's 5th anniversary. I hope we'll be able to work together happily in the years to come." She made a double entendre.Jeffrey smiled. "Mr. Anderson, may I talk to Ms. Jenna privately? After all, if there's a chance for cooperation,
The Wealthy Divorcee The Benefit Outweigh The Disadvantages
Jenna thought, 'So that's how it is..he's already a shareholder, huh? I just didn't expect Rex Hidalgo had set his eyes on the field of artificial intelligence for so long.'If Jeffrey did not take the initiative to tell Jenna this, Jenna would not have been able to find out. The fact that he told her this information also proved that he genuinely wanted to cooperate with her.Although Jenna was not happy about Rex's involvement, she had a clear mind and separated her personal affairs and business well. She would not give up on this opportunity.Jenna lowered her eyes and smiled. "With Hidalgo Corporation's strength, you can very well enjoy the fruits of this cooperation by yourself. Why do you need a third party to get involved?"She raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at Rex."After all, this is a brand new field that no one's involved in, so Hidalgo Corporation cannot take this risk alone."The man's voice was deep and clear. The corners of his lips hooked up. "It won't be a w
The Wealthy Divorcee The Kiss
When Jenna heard her name, she froze for a moment. She did not want to have anything to do with Rex, but this situation was out of her control, and she felt everyone's eyes on her.The awkward relationship between them after their divorce added to the mystery of this coincidental cooperation.Rex also did not expect this. Without a doubt, this was Jeffrey's doing.Jenna was still in a pickle when Rex walked to her. He exuded a calm aura as he bent slightly and reached out, inviting Jenna to the dance floor. Everyone's eyes were focused on the pair.There was no way Jenna could reject Rex's invitation because she did not want to leave a negative impact at the beginning of their three-way cooperation.Gino gave his baby sister a heartfelt look. Jenna smiled faintly, then stretched out her hand to take Rex's.The people in front of them consciously made way for the pair. Jenna carried her dress with her other hand and walked forward without looking at Rex.Rex's palm was slightly cold. A
The Wealthy Divorcee Could the Kiss be Intentional?
The lights flickered. Jenna gently shook the glass of wine and stood in front of the railing on the second floor. She watched the pretentious exchange of pleasantries between the people below.Rex, walking over not far away, looked up at that instant and suddenly met Jenna's clear and cold gaze; Jenna faintly retracted her gaze and ignored the discomfort in her heart.That kiss on the dance floor earlier made thecrowd gasp. No one cared which of them made the wrong move at the end of the dance. They were waiting for an excellent show to happen between the ex-couple. Any reaction to either of them would lead to endless speculation.Thus, at that moment, their lips touched. Jenna instantly turned her face to the side. Fortunately, the music stopped, and she drew back in time. She glanced coldly at Rex and turned away without looking back. Mark was joking with several people around Rex. After sending them away, he let out a sigh of relief and looked at Rex, who had a cold and noble tem
The Wealthy Divorcee He Married A Maid, Not A Wife
Chris appeared to be surprised. He understood the essential idea. "Stop daydreaming; Jenna is neither crazy nor foolish, so why would she kiss a f*ckboy? Kiss your brother? Haha... stop daydreaming."Elena argued, "If you don't believe me, ask anyone here. Everyone saw it!" Her companions reluctantly nodded. Chris ignored them without giving them any further attention. Do you think I'm stupid to ask the folks you're conspiring with?Elena's wrath caused her face to turn red. Jenna, stop pretending you can still marry into our family because we will never accept you. It's true, anyway! Jenna, you don't dare confess it? My brother cares about Alice, and you only exist to give her a blood transfusion."She was aware of Alice's negative impact on Jenna. Jenna felt twice as desperate every time Alice's name was mentioned.Jenna, however, softly hooked her lips and chuckled in their prese
The Wealthy Divorcee Apologies Don't Mean Anything
Rex approached Elena without pausing to observe Jenna's demeanor. He had an oddly frigid face.He asked, gritting his teeth, "Was what you just said true?" Elena bit her lower lip in nervousness and hesitated before responding.She grew up around her parents and was not close to her brother, who grew up abroad. After Rex returned to the country, he became a first-class business whiz in the sector and enlarged the Hidalgo's wealth, multiplied the family's wealth by hundreds.Elena became unbearably haughty and exclaimed, "Answer me!" Elena hesitated, but Rex coerced her into speaking.From behind him, from the left, came a cold and harsh scoff. He realized right away that Jenna was the one giggling."Mr. Hidalgo, it's all true," Jenna said, revealing the truth. A complex gaze was cast at these two folks by those nearby. They were unaware that Jenna's brilliance and the exterior's beauty lie in a past that was so nasty and unhappy.They were moved by Elena's words and felt sorry for Je

The Wealthy Divorcee I Never Knock When I Come Into My Office
The meeting room was dead silent for a full minute.Mr. Skilinzie's face was red, and he did not expect that Jenna would turn the gun on them. He said, "It's not..." Jenna interrupted him without a care. "I believe you've all received notice this morning that I'm managing everything in the company in Mr. Anderson's absence. I'm in charge of this project, so if you don't want to be a part of it from now on, hand me your letter of resignation immediately. Your positions will be replaced by your deputies. I will explain everything to Mr. Anderson." The people in the room were shocked and silenced. They had all stepped over each other to climb to their department head positions, and their deputies were eyeing their spots. It was a sought-after position, so no one dared to act rashly at this moment.Although they could not stand that Jenna had parachuted into her Vice President position, they could all tell how much Gino had supported her since the first day she arrived. They knew that t
The Wealthy Divorcee Can You Afford To?
At that moment, Jenna felt an unexpected intensity in Chris's demeanor, a stark departure from the carefree young man she had known just two years ago. It was as if he had transformed into a more sophisticated version of himself, a master of his destiny. Jenna found herself entangled in his gaze, lost in contemplation."He's not the same frivolous young master as he was two years ago," she thought, her mind racing to make sense of the shift.Panicking, Jenna quickly gathered her composure, determined not to reveal her inner turmoil. She had experienced the whirlwind of love before and had no intention of getting caught up in it again, no matter how tempting it might be."Avila, you're getting better at coaxing women now, huh?" she teased, trying to deflect attention from her unease.Chris, slightly taken aback, chuckled and took a step back. "No one else is qualified enough for me to coax."Jenna raised an eyebrow teasingly, "Right... If your girlfriends lined up, they could probably
The Wealthy Divorcee The Bitch is Coming Back
After Jenna eloquently expressed her thoughts, she retreated to the private room to make a call to Chris and make her exit. However, as she was about to get into her car, a sudden realization struck her – she had left her bag in the private room. Contemplating whether to retrieve it or not, Chris intervened, assuring her, "I'll get it. You can wait in the car." Without uttering another word, Chris left Jenna standing there. Intrigued, Jenna decided to follow him, only to unexpectedly cross paths with Rex and Mark, both on their way out. Preferring to avoid unnecessary trouble, Jenna refrained from approaching and instead positioned herself on the other side of the fountain at the entrance. Mark, initiating a conversation, remarked, "I heard that Alice is coming back soon?" Rex responded with a resonant "mm." Mark continued, "I haven't seen her in so long. I miss her. Although she was at fault, your punishment was a little too heavy. She's one of us, so you should forgive her." As

Rex did not make a sound on the side, but his eyes had a chill in them. Jenna laughed lightly and took Chris's arm. She raised an eyebrow and said, "What does it matter to you how many men I change or how many people I date? Mr. Martinez, do you wanna date me too?" Mark was dissatisfied and felt infuriated. 'Why do I always get bullied by Jenna?!' "You? You're not my type!" "To be honest, the last time I saw your body, it's not that great. You'd better date women with no taste. I'm very strict about my requirements for men's physique." "How dare you say my body's not great!" Mark's face turned red and white as he shook with anger, but he did not dare to say another word. His nudes were in her hands, so it left him with no choice but to retreat. He also heard what Jenna implied. 'Is this woman threatening me?' Chris laughed at the side. "Her standards have always been very high. Mr. Matinez, if we continue talking, it
The Wealthy Divorcee Pushed Off Rex for a Date with Second Young Master Avila
Jenna cast a sidelong glance as if he were a stranger, the man outside the elevator. The elevator door closed, and the man was finally out of her sight.The question had been bothering him for a while, and he finally asked it when they were in Rolland's fancy sports vehicle. "Is this thing worth a lot of money? Why is the Hidalgo family so desperate for it?" Jenna chuckled as she turned to face the box she was holding."This object is millennia old. I heard it originated in a royal palace and had been passed down through the Hidalgo family for nearly eight centuries. Do you believe its value to be high?" Rolland was visibly astonished, and his speed reduced. "This is just incredible! Did they put up an auction for such a valuable thing? No wonder Rex Hidalgo asked Jenna to state her price. If Jenna asked for nine figures, Rex probably wouldn't even have the slightest hesitation!'Jenna's phone suddenly rang. She looked at it and saw that it was Gino, so she happily picked up the call.

If he can't find it, he'll surely make a big fuss!" Elena spoke in a panic.Rex stood in the doorway looking very tall and handsome. His body was half-hidden in the shadows as he stared at the people in the room with cold eyes."Shut up! How dare you steal from Grandpa?" He spoke in a harsh tone and scolded Elena, who shuddered in fear and hid behind her mother, not daring to look up.Behind Rex was the person in charge of this event, who stood there with trepidation. The organizer glanced at the staff on the side and asked, "Are the formalities done?""Yes, everything is settled."

The employee kindly placed the emerald pipe before Jenna.She took it up and examined it. There was a tiny red area around the base of the tobacco pipe.'So this is the real one.' Jenna thought to herself."Thank you," Jenna said to the employee.She paid no attention to the two women who were in her peripheral view.Dianne was unable to tolerate it any longer and snorted icily."Are your eyes on your feet, Jenna? Are you not aware of how to act civil when you see your elders?"'How did she handle me in the past? She never dealt with me fairly when I was her daughter-in-law and anticipates that I would now treat her as an elder?'Jenna's gaze wavered. She raise an eyebrow and said "Oh, Mrs. Hidalgo, how coincidental that you are here as well!"Her remarks were sufficient for Dianne topass away from frustration.Anger reddened Dianne's face.

There was a commotion as Jenna was the center of attention for everyone.Rolland gave Jenna a perplexed look."What do you want this for?"Jenna hooked her lips. "It looks lovely, don't you think?""I don't think so. It looks like an ordinary tobacco pipe... what's so nice about it?"Jenna saw the look in Dianne and Elena's eyes on her, so she gave a hesitant smile and not avert her eyes from them.The mother-daughter Hidalgo duo were clearly taken aback. They were aware, that Jenna identified this emerald pipe.Dianne had already requested Jenna totidy the memorial hall by herself. Dianne purposefully removed the pipe from the lockbox and set it down on a top shelf, hoping Jenna wouldwould unintentionally run into the shelf and break the emerald pipe.If that happen, Old Master Hidalgowould undoubtedly expel Jenna from theirfamily, but Jenna was smart enough to avoid touching it.Had it not been for the security camera in the memorial hall, Dianne would havebroken it herself and
The Wealthy Divorcee $10 Million for Hidalgo Family's Heirloom
In a fit of rage and humiliation, Elena eventually exited the jewelry store. Stella quickly turned over the card and skimmed it over. Surprised herself, she asked, "How did you get this card?""My third brother gave it to me on my eighteenth birthday. He told me to bring it wherever I go. I didn't expect it to come handy," Jenna remarked, pursed lips."I'm envious and jealous that God didn't give me a third brother," Stella asked, clutching her brow."If you like it so much, I'll give it to you," Jenna said, laughing and handing it to her."Not at all! This card never expires. Once transferred, it becomes invalid, so you keep it, but need to purchase my favorites."Stella gladly took Jenna around the mall after they bought the jewelry, and then they left.When Jenna returned to the office, she was in a terrific mood. Emily had been making little movements, but Jenna ignored her and left her alone.She was aware that Gino could see and hear everything Emily did. Jenna had no intention
