How meaningless would it be without bets?Rex's eyes were deep as he stared at her indifferent side profile. "What are your thoughts?"Before Jenna could say anything, Mark sneered and spoke first. "If Rex loses, "I walk out of here butt naked, but if Jenna loses..."He swept a glance at the Avila brothers and continued in a disdainful tone, "You need to admit in public that you married into the Hidalgo family for money, and you can never show your face in New York ever again! Jenna, do you dare to bet onthis?"Chris and Robert were dumbfounded. Stella was so enraged that she wanted to stand up and defend Jenna, but Alexa pulled Stella back and told her not to be impulsive.Rex's eyebrows furrowed tighter. He was about to interrupt Mark when Jenna sneered and raised her eyebrows mockingly. "Sure, I accept."Jenna looked so scornful of Rex as if he was not a worthy opponent.Mark laughed at the fact that Jenna was ignorant and oblivious to how strong her opponent was.In the whole of N
Rex quickly left the table, leaving Mark stupefied as he received hostile glares from Jenna's friends.The taut string in Mark's heart suddenly snapped. Mark felt that those people led by Stella just wanted to eat him alive.'Rex left me like that? Aren't we bros?!' Mark looked at the people in front of him and bit his lower lip as he spoke with no dignity, "Can you please spare me this time?"The whole group said in unison, "No!"DownstairsJenna came out from the side door where there was no crowd. She had just sent a text to her big brother, so his driver should be arriving soon. She also sent Stella a message."Jenna.."A raspy voice called her name as Rex's tall and brawny figure stood at the side door. Jenna was stunned for a moment, then immediately put on her aloof and guarded look.Noticing her change in expression, Rex lowered his eyes slightly."What's the matter, Mr. Hidalgo?"The light at the side door was dim and elongated their shadows. When Rex took a step forward, Jenn
Mark reacted with a jolt and quickly took Rex's jacket to cover his face as he scurried to the car. "Get in! F*ck! Your ex-wife destroyed me today!"When Rex and Mark got into the car, Mark quickly put on his clothes while complaining. "Your ex-wife is such a femme fatale. She's so ruthless andheartless! I can't beat her."Rex's face turned cold when he heard his muttered words. He took out a cigarette with his slender fingers and lit it. The smoke coming from the cigarette made his eyes seem dim and inscrutable.Stella and Alexa followed Chris out of the bar. They looked smug when they saw the two men in the car.Chris took a few steps forward to the car. Through the car window, the corners of his lips hooked up into an unruly and playful smile. "Mr. Martinez, it was just a bet, so don't take it to heart. We're still friends, right?"Mark's body shook with anger. 'Hmph! simple for you to say, you're not the one that ran out n*ked! I'm afraid my name will become the laughingstock of
Early morningJenna opened her eyes in the warm morning light. It felt so cozy and mellow that she curled her lips into a sweet smile. Someone knocked on the door right on time. A maid asked in a soft voice, "Miss, are you awake?"Hearing this, Jenna answered in a lazy voice, "Mm...Come in."Last night, Gino's driver brought her to the Anderson mansion.Two maids pushed in a huge clothing rack and spoke respectfully, "Miss, theseare the clothes prepared especially for you. Master and Eldest Young Master arewaiting for you in the dining hall."Jenna was slightly shocked. 'Dad is so extra... bet he wanted to buy out all my favorite brands so that I 'm the only one who can wear them."There were several pieces of the same style in different colors. Although there was no logo, Jenna could tell from the familiar workmanship and fabric that these were from Prada's private collection.Some of them were this season's latest limited edition pieces, so they were invaluable.She certainly had
Jenna looked like she had a headache. "Stella, who the hell is so dumb to send me flowers?""Of course, it's Chris. He instructed me to deliver it to you by hand."'Chris? That Young Master is capable of making things happen!'Stella laughed. "Old Master Avila sent Robert to study abroad. I heard that if he fails this time, his grandpa will break his legs.""Awww...... It's a pity that we didn't get to send him off. I guess we'll just have to wait for him to come back and throw him a nice welcome-back party!"Jenna was helpless and got her assistant to take the flowers out of her office.She felt a lot more comfortable without the strong scent of flowers in the air.Stella nodded. "Yup, my thoughts exactly. By the way, I've looked into PH Corporation like you asked me to last time."Jenna looked up at her. Stella laughed and said, "PH Corporation has long since become a shell company. They keep asking for loans everywhere and owe the bank a large sum of money they can't even pay off. T
Both Mr. Rodriguez and Emely were shaken when they heard Jenna's words.Mr. Rodriguez suddenly smiled widely, picked up the bottle of red wine next to him, and poured a glass for Jenna."Ms. Jenna, since it's a negotiation, I came with my sincerity. Why don't you take a look at this document? As long as you sign it, I won't treat you badly"Mr. Rodriguez took a file from his bag. The content was similar to the contract Jenna was holding, but the figure was another ten percent lower than the one Emely had set.Emely looked at them and quickly advised her. "Jenna, what's the point of you only relying on Gino Anderson? You'd be better off getting a few morebackers. Think about it, Gino clearly wants to do you harm because he just left you in this position without even guiding you. He probably won't marry you either..."Jenna did not care for Emely's sowing of dissension because she probably thought that they were lovers. 'Is she trying to poach me?'"Look at the clothes you're wearing. T
That handsome face with that tall and upright figure currently standing in front of Jenna was the man that she had been infatuated with for two years, Rex Hidalgo.At first sight, Jenna was stunned for a moment but quickly regained her composure.'Why is he here? It's probably a coincidence.'Jenna was not so self-absorbed as to think that Rex had been watching her every move so that he could swoop in like a hero to save her."Mr. Hidalgo?" Mr. Rodriguez stood up in a panic and trembled in fear.Rex's face was gloomy as he glared viciously at Mr. Rodriguez. "Do you have a death wish? I can grant your wish!"At this moment, a wave of inexplicable anger suddenly surged in his chest. His eyes were cold and intimidating.Rex was just about to go forward to teach Rodriguez a lesson when a figure suddenly appeared from behind. The other man kicked Mr. Rodriguez, who had just stood up, back to the ground. Then threw a flurry of punches on Rodriguez's face and body. No place was left out."Chr
Jenna sneered and did not look at Rex again. She took her phone and purse, then stomped away in her high heels. Her back was slim and valiant.Chris raised his eyebrows and immediately followed after Jenna.Rex stood frozen in place. His gaze was as cold as frost. Jenna's words felt like a thorn in his heart that made him uncomfortable.'Being a lowly servant to my family? When did the titular Mrs. Hidalgo become a servant?'It seemed that there were too many things that Rex was not aware of.As soon as Jenna walked out, she saw a red-faced Emely tugging on Mr. Rodriguez at the entrance.'So, she already knew and was prepared for it... Then was my move earlier superfluous? Tsk, tsk...' Jenna thought.Jenna got into the car and left. When she heard about Rex's misunderstanding earlier, she felt hurt because he did not know what kind of person she was after two years of marriage.After a moment, Jenna regained composure and did not show any mood fluctuations. She promised not to look bac
