When She Rose From the Ashes

Chapter 196 Collapse

For the first time, Hansel made his disgust crystal clear.

Sharon never imagined he’d dare lay a hand on her.

She crashed against the coffee table, pain shooting through her lower back. Hearing his words on top of that made her so furious she nearly exploded.

“Hansel! How dare you talk to me like that! Just wait–I’ll make Jensen fire you!”

The only reply was the slam of the door as he left.

Sharon scrambled up like a madwoman, wanting to chase after him, but the door outside was locked, and bodyguards stood guard in every direction.

It was obvious. She was under house arrest.

“Let me out! Do you know who I am? Open this door!”

Not one of the guards even flinched.

Sharon collapsed onto the floor.

Everything had happened too fast. She hadn’t even had time to react.

How had it come to this?

She’d schemed against Natalie, yet somehow she was the one suffering instead.

And now Jensen was thinking of sending her abroad?

If she left the country, would she ever be able to come back?

No.

She wouldn’t.
