Chapter 166 Sharon Who Never Heard

That reporter was gutsy; he asked the question outright.

Jensen’s expression instantly darkened.

“What nonsense are you spouting? Sharon and I are just friends.”

The moment those words left his mouth, the entire place went silent.

Hansel broke out in a cold sweat. Mr. Jensen is digging his own grave. How am I supposed to fix this as his assistant? Maybe I should just quit, this job is way too much.

He tugged at Jensen’s sleeve, trying to get him to stop talking and just head back, but Jensen didn’t even notice.

“I’m telling you, Sharon and I are completely innocent. Stop spreading rumors! The only woman I’ll ever love in this lifetime is Sunny; the only woman I’ll ever marry is her!”

With that, Jensen spun around and stormed off.

The reporters were stunned.

After all, talk of Jensen and Sharon’s marriage had always been nothing more than hearsay. Their records at City Hall were encrypted and untouchable to outsiders.

On Sharon’s end, she’d vaguely hinted that she was Jensen’s wife, but there had never been solid proof.

Now, with Jensen declaring things so firmly, everyone began to wonder–could he actually be telling the truth?

For the past five years, all of Sunny’s designs had been licensed exclusively to Luke Corp.

Could Jensen be right?

Some of the reporters were already filling in the blanks, imagining a romance between the two; some even had headlines drafted in their minds.

Even without Ms. Sunny showing up today, getting a bombshell like this made the trip

worthwhile.

A few reporters hurried off, eager to rush their stories out.

Chapter 166 Sharon Who Never Heard

Back in the car, Hansel felt utterly helpless.

“Mr. Jensen, you were too impulsive today. Yes, your marriage records with Natalie are encrypted, but if someone really wanted to dig, they could still find traces. And Natalie hasn’t contacted you since the fire. If she hears what you just said, she might resent it. Reconciling with her later won’t be easy.”

He had to voice his concerns.

Jensen kept his gaze fixed outside, narrowing his eyes. “I’m forcing her to come out. If she really is Natalie, I’ll give her everything. But if someone’s pretending to be her, using her name to cash in, then they’d better not blame me for being ruthless.”

Hansel froze.

“Mr. Jensen, what do you mean by that?”

A glint of ice flickered in Jensen’s eyes.

“Natalie’s right hand was shattered by Sharon; she’ll never be able to hold a paintbrush again. How could she possibly be designing now? Even if she hadn’t died in that fire, she would have been gravely injured. She wouldn’t have had enough time to heal, let alone train herself to draw with both hands.”

Hansel couldn’t help but ask, “So you’re saying Ms. Sunny is a fake?”

“Not necessarily.”

Jensen’s gaze darkened; his fingers tapped lightly against the armrest. “Ur ss the person who saved her back then took her to the Witch Doctor. He’s the only one in this world who could’ve healed her that quickly. That’s why I have to see this Sunny with my own eyes. I need to know if she’s really my Natalie.”

Jensen hated admitting it, but he was jealous.

Five years ago, when he was on the brink of death, Natalie had begged the Witch Doctor to save him. That was when he realized she might have had a relationship with that man.

If that connection existed, and if Natalie had been rescued, then finding the Witch Doctor again–given their one–night history–might have been enough for him to save her too.

Now Jensen was torn, he wanted Natalie to be alive, yet the thought of her surviving because of the Witch Doctor drove him to the edge of despair.

His face grew so grim it seemed to drag the temperature of the car down with it.
