Beauty, Waiting for Your Love

Chapter 8

There was the crisp sound of high heels stepping on the floor. It sounded urgent and loud, mixed with arrogance and brashness. Jenna Murphy frowned slightly when she heard this unusual sound of high heels hitting the ground. The strong fragrance of expensive imported perfume drifted into the room, and Jenna looked up.

Aria McAdams's sexy and beautiful figure walked in. She was wearing a rose-colored short pencil dress, and it had a deep plunge in the middle that almost reached her navel, making her look erotic and alluring. Her long and wavy luscious blonde hair was casually draped over her shoulders, and her hot and plump red lips were sensual to the extreme.

Her skinny high- heels lengthened and slimmed down her body shape. With her striking attractiveness, she was fitting for the title of the woman behind Hansen Richards, the president of the powerful Richards Group.

Aria's face was arrogant but her eyes were gloomy. She bore into Jenna with her cold and disdainful eyes.

"Why did you come to work at the Richards Group, Jenna Murphy?" Aria haughtily and petulantly demanded an answer. She looked extremely angry with her flushed cheeks, and her narrow eyes glared menacingly. She looked like she was going to swallow Jenna alive!

Jenna avoided her contemptuous eyes and smiled coldly, then sat down on the sofa in front of her desk before she replied casually, "Is there a problem, Ms. McAdams?"

Aria had a very special position in the Richards Group. Everyone knew about her relationship with Hansen, and therefore no one dared to offend her openly.

Of course Jenna knew that she was arrogant and confident because Hansen had her back, but she had also heard that Aria was indeed a great help to the Richards Group back in the day. When the Richards Group was stuck in a precarious situation three years ago, she secretly used her father’s connections to staunchly support Hansen and managed to stabilize the steady decline of the Richards Group's stock market shares, giving Hansen room to breathe.

Hansen's affections for her didn't come out of nowhere.

"You need to understand that Hansen has never loved you, and even hated you. I know you still love Hansen, so give up. You two are divorced, it's all over now, Hansen would never fall in love with you. He is going to marry me soon, because we have always been deeply in love with each other. You really shouldn't have come back to work here. If you have any brain cells left, know your place and f*ck off immediately." Aria was perturbed by Jenna's indifference and shouted furiously at her.

Jenna's heart twitched, as if it was sliced by a knife and rubbed with salt. The pain made chills run through her body and stuffed up her throat. She was telling the truth. Hansen had never loved her, he loved Aria

There was a frosty glint in Jenna's bright eyes, and her expression was callous. "Oh, I forgot to tell you that I was headhunted by the Richards Group to work here as a designer. Hansen wanted me to work here. So you should ask President Richards about this or ask him to fire me. I'm at your disposal."Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Her eyes were extremely calm and there was a lighthearted glimmer in them, as if she didn’t care about anything, including the marriage between Aria and Hansen.

Aria's cheeks reddened even more. She pointed at Jenna and bellowed, "How dare you threaten me with Hansen's name? Just because we used to be classmates doesn't mean that you have the right to ignore me. My position and contributions to the Richards Group are unparalleled, even Hansen has to watch his tongue in front of me. I put in so much effort for the Richards Group, and I will not allow you to ruin it or waste it idly. You're nothing but an ex-wife, and you never would've came back if you had an ounce of self-respect! Have some shame! No one knows that you used to be the president's wife, but everyone knows that Hansen loves me and is going to marry me, so you can stay here if you want to be humiliated!"

After saying all that, Aria twisted her slender waist and turned to walk off, but she only took a few steps before she looked back again with a scornful face and mocked

"And you say you're a car designer? You're so stupid you don't even know how to seduce Hansen, I don’t believe for a second that you designed that car, I know you got some sleazy guy to help you! Remember, you might be able to deceive Hansen with your little tricks, but not me! You're nothing but a cheap b*tch to Hansen, and he wouldn't even spare an eye to look at you.”

If Jenna had been humiliated like this in the past, she would have trembled from rage and lost the fight. But her heart was now much stronger than before.

She looked calm, and there was a mysterious flicker in her glistening eyes. Her long eyelashes fluttered mischievously.

"I didn't know you still remembered that we were classmates, Ms. McAdams! I wonder which one of us is truly shameless. I went to the United States three years ago, and I remember a certain someone brazenly pestering my husband. Do you dare confess how you became Hansen's partner?" Jenna stood up, her eyes shot daggers into Aria, and she exuded a forceful and compelling aura

Aria's face turned pale, and a trace of panic flashed through her heart, but she quickly calmed down.

She looked arrogant, like a queen looking at a despicable subject of hers, and said sharply, "Stay here if you can, Jenna Murphy. Try not to let me catch you tripping. Just wait and see, if you want to be humiliated, I will happily oblige.”

With a sullen face, Aria turned her slender waist around and slowly walked out.

“Hansen.” Aria’s eyes reddened as soon as she entered Hansen's office. She threw herself into Hansen's arms like a red butterfly. looking as sad and upset as she could be.

Hansen was standing in the office and speaking on the phone with a serious expression when Aria suddenly pounced on him and wrapped herself around him. He furrowed his handsome eyebrows slightly and his eyes flashed with displeasure.

"Aria, I told you to be careful of your behavior in the office, why won't you listen?" Hansen hung up the call and asked in a clearly unhappy voice.

He has talked to this woman about this several times, that she had to pay attention to her words and actions in the office and the work place, but she just won't change. She would publically display her affection everytime she saw him, no matter the occasion. In fact, the more people there were the more excessive she became. as if she wanted the entire world to know.

"I just missed you, Hansen.” Aria nuzzled in his arms and said sweetly. Hansen shook his head a little and gently pushed her away, then said calmly, "Well, tell me, who wronged you this time? Who angered you now?”

Aria's round and watery eyes were covered in mist. "Hansen, why is that b*tch back and working for the Richards Group? Why?"

B*tch? Hansen paused for a moment but quickly understood. His face darkenedand he walked straight to the sofa to sit on it. Then he said casually and flatly, "Aria, you can't call her that in the future. She is now.& top talent that was _* headhunted by the RichardsGroup, aworld-class automotive-désigner. Our company needs taleftts like her ight now. She will be treasured by the company as long as she can bring profit to us. Be careful of your words from now on."

"Treasured?" Aria's heart stiffened and she suddenly panicked. She trembled and threw herself into Hansen's arms as she cried, "Hansen, you said that you never loved her, you said that you hated her, how could you treasure her?"

Aria was stunned by this sudden change. She just couldn't understand why Hansen was defending her if he hated her and never loved her.

Hansen's patience had reached its limit, but he was still trying to persuade her.

“Hansen, I wouldn't have minded if you hired ten other women, but not her. Please fire her, I'm begging you, do it for me, okay?” Aria pleaded with tears in her eyes, "Hansen, have you forgotten your father? He is still lying in the hospital all because of that woman!"

Hansen's stiff body gradually relaxed. His eyes glinted as he snapped, “Enough, Aria. we are in an office right now, you are at a work place, don't get your personal grievances involved. I never listen to others to make my decisions. Watch what you say and what you do and learn to respect others in the future. I don’t want to hear any bad rumors.”

When Hansen finished, he stood up with a sullen face and turned to walk outside. Was she kidding? Why would the respected president of the Richards Group be afraid of a woman's revenge?

More importantly, The Whalen Company would gain even more of an advantage if he fired her. He was a shrewd businessman, and he was perfectly aware of the pros and cons of everything.
