My Husband's Betrayal My Brothers' Revenge (Rebekah) novel Chapter 177

Jensen snorted, the corners of his charming eyes lifting, though his gaze held no amusement. "What's it to you? Or are you, the ex-hubby, so desperate you had to come groveling for another chance?"

"Groveling? We both know who the guilty party is here!" Benjamin retorted, his eyes locking on Rebekah as his grip on her wrist tightened.

In his mind, he had done nothing wrong. It was Rebekah who had become unreasonable, treating his son and him with growing coldness while viewing her own sister as an enemy. What other man would have tolerated such a wife?

Rebekah twisted her arm, but she couldn't break free. Her face paled from the pain.

Suddenly, a hand with long, well-defined fingers closed around Benjamin's wrist. With a sharp, brutal twist, Benjamin cried out and released her. Before Rebekah could even see what happened next, Benjamin was flying sideways, crashing heavily to the floor.

She gasped and grabbed Jensen's sleeve, stopping him from advancing. He glanced back at her, saw the alarm in her eyes, then turned his glare back to Benjamin.

"Get lost," he commanded.

Benjamin watched as Rebekah protectively pulled Jensen back.

"Benjamin, this divorce is happening, whether you like it or not," she said, her voice firm. "If you keep harassing me, don't expect me to be polite!"

With that final threat, she pulled Jensen inside. The door slammed shut with a definitive *bang*.

Clutching his side, Benjamin slowly pushed himself up. Jensen's kick had been a heavy blow, delivered with a speed he couldn't react to. The man was a trained fighter.

Rebekah sighed and sat down. "From now on, just stay as far away from him as you can, you hear me?" She still remembered Benjamin's threats to ruin Jensen, and she couldn't let that happen.

Her words just irritated him again. "Why?"

"I just told you! He's petty! What if he tries to get revenge?"

"He'd have to be capable of it first," Jensen said, his tone dripping with disdain for Benjamin.

Rebekah studied him, a thought surfacing. "Jensen… are you sure you have no connection to the Hawthorne family?"
