Bye, My Ex-husband

When Janessa arrived at the old house, she realized that Rayan wasn't home yet.

She attempted to contact him, but he either sent her to voice mail or hung up the call.

Was it that difficult for him to answer one of her calls? The moment Janessa entered the hall, she noticed that most of the elders of the Lu family were gathered in the formal living room.

Were they here to criticize her? Janessa couldn't help but brace herself for what was to come.

It was the first time she had ever seen this many members of the Lu family since she got married.

However, now that she had to deal with them alone, without Rayan by her side.

Her fingertips trembled ever so slightly, but she managed to walk towards them calmly.

"Janessa, come and sit down," Rayan's mother, Sarah, ordered.

"Yes, mom," Janessa answered obediently.

She quickly took a seat on the sofa.

All of the people in the room turned their gazes toward her.

The moment she sat down, Rayan's aunt, Wendy, glanced at her freshly manicured nails with a bored look.

Then, she said in a sarcastic voice, "What an ungrateful and malicious woman! I'm sure you're aware that your family's business is getting better now.That must be why you're determined to get rid of us.You bribed someone to post that photo of Rayan, didn't you?"

Wendy had never been particularly pleasant to Janessa, but it was the first time she bared her claws like this.

Were they aware of all the things Rayan had done to the Qiu family? When Janessa failed to answer, Wendy continued, "Why aren't you saying anything? Who do you think you are? You're lucky you managed to get a job in the Lu Group.Instead of minding your own business and working hard, you're playing little tricks on everybody.It's pathetic!"

Wendy's husband, Glen, tugged at her clothes and gave her a warning look.

Janessa didn't attempt to explain herself because she knew it wouldn't make a difference.People like them only believed what they wanted to believe.The only people she was concerned about were her parents-in-law.

She wanted them to believe her.However, her parents-in-law hadn't said a word since she entered the room.

They had been waiting patiently for Rayan to come back, so he could clarify what had happened.

An hour later, Rayan finally arrived.

The woman in the photo, Gracie, also walked in by his side.

On their way to the old house, Rayan promised Gracie that he would protect her and wouldn't allow her to be bullied.

When Sarah noticed Gracie come in, her usually kind eyes immediately burned with anger.
