When She Rose From the Ashes

Chapter 190 Poison and Bloodlines

He even had a ridiculous thought.

If he had known that accepting Sharon’s help all those years ago would lead to this moment, would he still have agreed to it?

Jensen wasn’t the type to waste time on such pointless hypotheticals. But for the first time, he couldn’t help it.

Whether it was the debt from five years ago or the fact that she now carried the title of Mrs. Luke, he couldn’t allow Sharon to go to jail.

Hansel nodded, though in his eyes there was only distaste and resentment toward Sharon.

Miss Natalie had been with Mr. Jensen for five years, and there had never been this kind of chaos.

But Sharon? She had been Mrs. Luke for only a few days, and already the company’s stock was tumbling, forcing Hansel into endless overtime.

Still, he knew his place as an assistant. Complaints weren’t his to voice.
