Once His Wife, Now His Rival 225

Chapter 225 I Can Also Pursue Ethan, Right

Jade's lips curled at Sabine's behavior. So this was Brenna's future sister-in-law? Sabine clearly disliked Brenna and was making things difficult for her.

"Ernst," said Brenna flatly, "your girlfriend is helping an outsider make things difficult for me."

Ernst's face darkened. He glared at Sabine, and his voice was sharp. "Why are you interfering? This is none of your business."

Sabine shrank back and scrambled for words. She said, "I'm actually trying to protect her! The Hewitts could crush the Harpers like an ant. There's no need for the Harper family to offend the Hewitt family just for her."

Seizing the moment, Jade slid her arm through Ethan's and purred, "At least I bring something to the table. What does your little girlfriend do besides take up space?"

Ethan peeled her off coldly. "I can handle my own business. The Ward family is powerful, but their power is not as strong as you think. As for you? You don't even hold much sway in your family."

Jade's lips tightened. Ethan had struck a nerve. Her full name was Jade Ward Hewitt, though most people didn't know that.

Her grandfather, Kyle Ward, had been an infamous crime lord. While she was certainly one of his more capable grandchildren, real power in the family had never been hers to claim.

Ethan had figured this out during his recent dealings with them.

The four great families of Shirie were unaware of this, thinking that she held great sway in the Ward family.
