Chapter 37 Shattered Foundations


    If the wedding ring he had painstakingly designed and long dreamed of ended up on another man’s finger because of Natalie, what would he do?


    He might just kill Natalie and that bastard.


    So when Jensen heard Natalie’s next words-“I’m not interested in being a mistress”-he wasn’t surprised. But the pain hit so hard it nearly stole his breath.


    So the person who had hurt Natalie the most… was him.


    He was the one who had personally handed Sharon the sword that stabbed Natalie’s heart.


    Suddenly, Jensen raised his hand and pped himself across the face.


    The sharp crack of the p echoed harshly through the closed car.


    Hansel flinched in shock, about to speak-but when he nced at Natalie’s phone, he fell silent and quietly started the engine.


    Jensen hit himself again. And again. Over a dozen ps in a row.


    His cheeks were burning with pain, but it didn’te close to the torment inside his chest.


    He would never forgive himself.


    But before that, he wasn’t going to let Sharon off easy, either.


    Sharon had once saved his life, and now she was dying-so he couldn’t touch her. But the Summers family? Who said they were off-


    limits?


    The thought sent a fist flying into the car window. Blood welled up from his knuckles, but Jensen didn’t even flinch. His eyes went cold.


    “Hansel, I want the Summers family erased from Ocean City’s upper ss in three days.”


    Wasn’t Sharon so obsessed with her pedigree?


    She believed she was born to be noble. Even though she’d been switched at birth, once she returned to the Summers family, she had used their status and connections to whip and humiliate Natalie as she pleased.


    Well, Jensen was going to destroy everyst bit of her support.


    Hansel looked at the man beside him, who seemed on the brink of madness, and hesitated.


    “Mr. Luke… you mean bankruptcy?”


    Jensen’s bloody hand was still dripping. At Hansel’s question, he paused for a moment.


    “Do your job. Don’t ask questions you don’t need the answer to.”


    His voice was low and chilling.


    Hansel instantly understood.


    Mr. Luke might be acting like he loved Miss Natalie deeply, but it was only because her death had shocked him so badly.


    Hansel didn’t deny that Mr. Luke did love Miss Natalie, but his attitude toward Sharon left Hansel unsure what to think.


    If he truly wanted justice for Natalie, he should uproot the Summers family entirely and see Sharon punished for what she did.


    But all Mr. Luke wanted was to bankrupt them. In a way, he was still protecting Sharon.


    This so-called justice for Natalie was just Mr. Luke’s way of easing his own guilt.


    Once Hansel figured that out, he didn’t argue anymore.


    He ryed Jensen’s order and drove off.


    “Where to, Mr. Luke?”


    “To thepany.”


    Natalie was gone now. The Eternal Love collection she’d designed had be a one-of-a-kind treasure.


    Jensen knew that if he made the designer Sunny’s death public, this collection would bring Luke Corp unimaginable fortune.


    But he couldn’t bring himself to do it.


    Hansel drove him to Luke Corp and quickly summoned the family doctor to treat Jensen’s wounds.


    Jensen didn’t resist. Once the doctor was done, he headed to the storage room.


    Inside was the only disyed set of the Eternal Love collection.


    Just a few days ago, Natalie had been arguing about whether she could attend theunch event. Now, everything felt so distant- like the world had shifted.


    “Natalie, you designed this Eternal Love collection for our fifth anniversary. I’m going to seal it away forever. Just like our love-it’ll never fade.”


    As Jensen packed away the jewelry, he realized one ring was missing.


    Then it came back to him.


    Sharon had it.


    “Hansel, go get the ring from Sharon. It’s part of the Eternal Love collection.”


    Jensen called Hansel directly.


    Hansel hesitated slightly. <fn24aa> Discover more novels at FindN0vel</fn24aa>


    “Mr. Luke, that ring… you gave it to Ms. Summers. How do I exin asking for it back?”


    “Don’t exin. Just take it back. If she refuses, take it by force.”


    Hansel paused again at Jensen’s words, but didn’t say anything else.


    Sharon had already been furious after Jensen left her on the side of the road. She barely managed to make it back to the vi, only to see Hansel show up asking for the Eternal Love ring.


    “I’m not giving it back! Jensen gave it to me-who do you think you are to take it? Hansel, don’t think I don’t know what’s going on. You look down on me, don’t you? Let me tell you something-I’m Mrs. Luke of Luke Corp! And I’m the eldest daughter of the Summers family! If you piss me off, I’ll make sure you regret it!”


    Hansel remained expressionless at her outburst, though he was deeply scornful inside.


    Eldest daughter of the Summers family?


    That ring might be expensive, but it wasn’t something the Summers family couldn’t afford.


    And yet it never urred to her to buy it herself.


    Not like Miss Natalie.
