Hunting for His EX-Wife

“I thought you know what you should do.”

Rhys was helping Jenna out, but Breanna’s question made him frown. How could someone from the secretary’s department be so clueless? His displeasure was evident in his tone. Breanna was taken aback and quickly lowered her head, feeling even more frustrated with Jenna for causing this situation.

She had hoped to impress Rhys today, but everything had been ruined because of Jenna. “I understand, Mr. Williams. I’ll inform them right away.” Reluctantly, Breanna conveyed the message even though there had been no response from the public relations department yet.

Rhys clearly stood on Jenna’s side and watched as Breanna left. He couldn’t help but think about what he overheard in the break room earlier. Those employees’ words made sense. He and Jenna had been married for a long time but she rarely came to the company. It would only give employees an impression that he didn’t like Jenna very much. Moreover, with this incident happening now, it wasn’t hard to imagine how bad things were for her.

With these thoughts in mind, Rhys immediately picked up his phone and called Jenna who answered promptly. “I rushed out of our house this morning and accidentally left some files behind on my desk in a blue folder. I’m busy here, I can’t leave, please send it over.”

Upon hearing Rhys’ request, Jenna was hesitant since she’d never done anything like it before.

Given all that she’s owed to the Williams family, she agreed eventually. “Sure thing! I’ll bring it over shortly.”

Rhys breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing her response. “Great! I’ve informed the receptionist desk so you can come straight up when you arrive.”

Her goal was to have Jenna come to the company and tell everyone that he stood firmly on Jenna’s side.

After hanging up the phone, Jenna quickly arrived at Rhys’ study.

She immediately saw the document Rhys had mentioned, which was placed in the center of his desk with no other documents around it.

Jenna was a bit puzzled. Rhys was usually very careful and wouldn’t make such a basic mistake.

But regardless of her doubts, Jenna didn’t want to delay any longer and quickly took the document with her, hailing a cab to the Williams Group.

“Hello, I’m here to deliver something,” she said directly as she approached the receptionist, holding up the folder in her hand.

As soon as she saw Jenna appear, the receptionist lit up and respectfully escorted her into an elevator after swiping her access card.

Her attitude caught many employees’ attention. Just after Jenna was sent up in the elevator, several people snuck over curiously.

“What’s going on? Who is that? Why haven’t I seen her before?”

“Yeah! I think I saw you press for the CEO office’s floor. Could she be Mr. Williams’s mistress?”

…

Everyone wore gossipy expressions on their faces as they began questioning the receptionist about what happened.

After hearing everyone speak for some time, the receptionist felt somewhat speechless. “What are you guys talking about? That is Mrs. Williams, Mr. Williams’ wife. She came specifically today just so she could deliver some documents since Mr. Williams forgot them at home.”

Upon hearing this explanation from the receptionist, the staff members who were previously chattering suddenly quieted down all at once!

It wasn’t until quite some time later when someone broke the silence. “What? That woman is Mrs. Williams? But isn’t it true that Mr. Williams doesn’t like Mrs. Williams?”

“Moreover,” another employee chimed in “there were rumors online… I don’t think he called her over just for delivering files.”

“I think those rumors online are mostly fake news,” another person added, “If there really were problems between them, then how could Mr. Williams call her over only for files delivery purposes when he can easily ask somebody else to do it instead?”

They offered their own opinions while Breanna happened upon these conversations right after coming downstairs.

“What are you guys talking about? Did Mrs. Williams come here?”

As she was about to inform her colleagues downstairs, Jenna suddenly showed up at the company. Breanna’s words made everyone feel a little uneasy. Breanna had never hidden her feelings for Rhys, and almost half of the company knew about it. However, Rhys had always been immune to women’s charms, so no one had ever succeeded in winning his heart.

No one spoke up because Breanna worked in the secretary department and they were just ordinary employees who couldn’t afford to offend her. If they did say Mrs. Williams and Mr. Williams were in a good relationship, Breanna might get upset with them.

“She’s here to deliver some files to Mr. Williams. I’ve sent her upstairs,” said the receptionist who pointed towards the direction of the elevator.

Since she had sent Jenna upstairs as per Rhys’ instructions, if Breanna wanted to be jealous or angry, then she could go find Rhys herself!

As soon as she heard this response, Breanna immediately rushed into the elevator without hesitation.

Seeing Breanna’s hurried figure disappear into the elevator made everyone give up on gossiping further.

“If Mrs. Williams and Mr. Williams are in a good relationship, what will happen if they see Breanna?” asked someone curiously.

“I don’t know but did you see how quickly she went after him? It could lead to some trouble,” replied another person thoughtfully.

The employees actually felt disdainful towards her intentions for pursuing a married man like Mr. Williams despite knowing he had a wife.

News of Jenna coming to the company spread quickly. Within minutes, almost all the staff members knew the news.

Once Jenna arrived at the office building floor level, someone came forward immediately, offering assistance by guiding her directly towards Rhys’ office.

“This is what you wanted,” said Jenna as she handed over the file folder personally to Rhys who took it without much interest before asking, “What do you think we should do regarding your online rumors? Should we involve our PR department?”

The internet chatter surrounding Jenna had become quite intense lately; All kinds of negative things were being spread about her online!Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
