Chapter 73 Ruinous Exposure

The woman in his bed last night… was Sharon?

A surge of violent fury flooded Jensen’s chest.

Before he could process further, a bold reporter stepped up.

“Mr. Luke, is Ms. Sharon the woman you’ve been hiding in this villa for the past five years?”

“Mr. Luke, rumors say you’ve been deeply devoted to only one woman all these years-is that Ms. Sharon?”

“Mr. Luke, with such a strong relationship, when’s the wedding?”

Reporters rushed in all at once, bombarding them with questions, snapping photos, and giving them no time to dress.

Jensen’s brow furrowed into a sharp, unforgiving line.

“This is private property. How did you get in here?”

His voice was low-lethal-and shaking with barely restrained rage.

Sharon, after her initial scream, quickly realized the situation was a godsend. Clutching the sheets close to her chest, she gave the crowd a demure look and cooed, “Please don’t… we deserve a little privacy, don’t we? Actually, Jensen and I are already married. We just haven’t had the chance to hold a ceremony.”

“What?! Ms. Summers is already Mrs. Luke?”

“I think I heard Mr. Luke went to the courthouse not long ago. So it was to register with Ms. Summers!”

“They’re such a perfect couple. Truly a love that withstands everything!”

The flurry of praise made Sharon smirk triumphantly.

But Jensen’s eyes turned colder than ice.

“Sharon. Did you forget what I warned you about?”

His voice wasn’t loud-but it was enough to freeze the blood in her veins.

He had explicitly told her never to reveal their marriage-back when Natalie was still alive, And now that Natalie was gone, why was he still keeping it a secret?

Discontent began to stir in Sharon’s heart.

“Jensen, I know the Summers family went bankrupt recently. Maybe we don’t look good enough for you anymore. But when we registered our marriage, my family was still standing. Now that it’s already out there, what’s the point

of hiding it?”

The reporters paused at that, their expressions shifting.

Yes, the Summers Corp had collapsed recently.

They remembered the sight of Mr. Summers groveling for help from all corners of Ocean City.

Their gaze toward Jensen grew sharp.

“Mr. Luke, will you help Summers Corp rise again?”

“Mr. Luke, after all you’ve done for Ms. Summers over the past five years, is there more to this bankruptcy than meets the eye?”

The questions turned increasingly pointed, and Jensen’s fury spiked.

At the same time, the pain and itchiness in his body came rushing back. That gnawing, unbearable sensation clawed up his spine.

And Sharon-under the covers-wasn’t exactly behaving.

Jensen’s expression turned pitch black.

“Get out! This is my private residence! You entered without permission. I’ll have you charged with trespassing and violating my privacy!”

He made no attempt to hide his fury now.

Finally realizing things weren’t as rosy as they seemed, the reporters noticed the storm darkening Jensen’s face.

At first, they’d thought he was just mad about being caught with his secret lover. But now, the tension was something else entirely.

Still, a scandal like this was gold.

Hansel arrived just in time. Seeing Jensen’s face like thunder, he nearly dropped the phone in his hand. Without another word, he ordered security to clear the reporters out immediately.

The damage was done.

Enough footage and photos had been taken to plaster headlines across the city.

Inside the room, only Jensen and Sharon remained.

Sharon made to flee to the bathroom, but Jensen grabbed her by the throat and slammed her against the headboard.

“How did you get in here? Didn’t I tell you-Grand Pavilion is not a place you can enter? And those reporters-did
