Chapter 233 Secrets Always Find Me

Just as Jensen was about to hang up, Hansel’s voice came again.

“Mr. Jensen, we’ve identified the woman who tried to stab Ms. Sharon at the hospital.”

“Go on.”

“It was Dr. Johnson’s wife.”

Hansel’s words made Jensen’s eyes narrow sharply.

“Whose wife did you say?”

“Dr. Johnson’s. After Dr. Johnson disappeared in that car accident, his son fell ill. Unfortunately, he hadn’t left his wife much money. His wife, Diane, took their child to Dr. Johnson’s hospital, but because she didn’t have enough to pay, they were turned away. The boy went untreated, his condition worsened, and it doesn’t look like he’ll last much longer. Diane saw Ms. Sharon‘ messages in Johnson’s chat logs and assumed Ms. Sharon was his mistress. In a fit of rage, she went to the hospital to attack Ms. Sharon. This whole thing has nothing to do with Natalie.”

As he listened, Jensen’s gaze turned even colder.

“How ambiguous could Sharon and Johnson’s messages have been to make Diane jump to that conclusion? Pull Sharon’s chat history with Johnson and send it to me.”

“Yes, sir.”

“And another thing–Johnson was a doctor. How could he possibly leave his wife and son with no money? Why wouldn’t he have bought insurance for his child? Isn’t insurance practically universal now? With coverage, there’s no way a child’s illness would go untreated.”

Something about it didn’t add up; Jensen felt there was more to the story than he knew.

Hansel sighed. “That’s true–insurance is common enough. But Diane’s son isn’t actually Johnson’s biological child. He only found out after they married. For reasons no one really knows, he didn’t divorce her, but he treated both mother and child badly. Diane didn’t have a job and lived off Johnson’s allowance, which barely covered the basics, so she never bought insurance for the boy. When the leukemia diagnosis came, she had no choice but to turn to Johnson for help. But by then, he had disappeared. As for his mistress, Diane knew he was seeing someone, but not who. It just so happened Ms. Sharon messaged him at that time; Diane saw the chats and misunderstood.”

“Misunderstood?”

Jensen’s face darkened, his voice grating between clenched teeth. “If Sharon and Johnson were truly innocent, there’s no way Diane could’ve misunderstood! Find out. I want every single detail of their messages.”

Hansel froze, saying nothing; he didn’t hang up, but he didn’t reply either.

Jensen’s chest tightened.

“You’ve already found something, haven’t you?”

Hansel let out another sigh and said quietly, “Mr. Jensen, you’ve known Ms. Sharon‘ character since five years ago. Sometimes it’s better not to dig too deep.”

Jensen’s expression grew uglier.

He remembered how, five years ago, Sharon had asked him to race cars with her. It was nothing but a stunt to provoke him, to flaunt that her new boyfriend was more daring than he

was.

Blinded by anger, Jensen had agreed; that was how the accident happened.

Sharon had donated a rib to him afterward–but then she left for abroad, and rumors followed her there; her reputation was hardly clean.

When Sharon came back five years later claiming she was terminally ill, he had lost his head.

There had been old resentment; there had been the monotony of his relationship with Natalie and his craving for something reckless; above all, there had been the thrill Sharon always brought.

That was what he’d told himself then. But now, looking back, he felt like a fool–pathetic and ridiculous.

Natalie may not have been a virgin, but she had given her first time to save him.

For five years, she had only ever been with him. And Sharon? A woman that wild–how could she possibly have had only one man?

What Jensen hadn’t expected was that even with cancer, even with death looming, even while wearing the title of Mrs. Luke–she still dared to cheat on him behind his back.

“Hansel, you already have screenshots of their chats, don’t you? Send them to me.”

Jensen’s voice carried a weary chill.

Hansel hesitated, reluctant, but finally nodded. “I’ll send them right away,

After hanging up, Hansel forwarded the files on WhatsApp.

Mr. Jensen.”

Jensen stared at the filthy chat logs, every explicit message laid bare–even Johnson’s invitation for Sharon to meet at a hotel.

“You wench!”

His gaze locked on the timestamp; the date was the very next day after he and Sharon had registered their marriage.

“Sharon!”

Jensen’s eyes burned scarlet with fury as he spun on his heel and stormed back to the family

estate.

At that moment, Sharon still hadn’t gone upstairs.

She was admiring the layout of the old house, struck for the first time by the weight of a century–old family legacy; the Summers family could never compare. So I was right to move in here.

Even if Jensen was cold to her for now, as long as she carried this child, she would secure her place in the Luke family.

In time, everything the Lukes owned would be hers.
