After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities

Chapter 768

This time, she must make Jenna notorious in the international piano circle and show everyone her true

colors. Let's see how Jenna'll pretend to be innocent with that pure face of hers.

Mrs. Ritter has always held a grudge against Jenna, believing that Sylvia refused to take Ashlyn as a

student because Jenna spoke ill of her daughter and interfered.

The Graley Piano Competition is important for almost every musician and is considered a heavyweight

international award. If they fail, they will become the laughingstock of the music world.

It would directly block Jenna's piano career. She became famous as a teenager, winning first place in

the piano competition and receiving much attention.

Mrs. Ritter was extremely jealous, thinking that it wasn't due to her own talent but rather because

Sylvia had good guidance. That's why she wanted to send her daughter to study under Sylvia as well.

Then when the winner of the piano competition turns out to be an incompetent composer who insists

on participating in competitions...

Mrs. Ritter even thought about what headlines she could use at that time.

She was just waiting for Jenna to fall short at Graley Piano Competition's live performance venue so

Mrs. Ritter could feel more comfortable inside.

A little slut who wants to show off in front of her? Does she really think The Ritter family is nothing?

Jenna's head buzzed with noise while an impulse rose from deep within wanting desperately escape

this situation but no... she couldn't do it... she knew it wouldn't work...

When she walked out of the Piano Association half an hour later feeling lost and disoriented, Ashlyn

followed closely behind, mocking, "Miss Shepherd, what kind of expression is that? You look like you've

been hit hard or something! Oh my goodness I have some friendly advice - It looks like snow is coming NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

soon, so hurry up and go home."

The sky was gloomy; it looked like snow was really coming soon with cold winds blowing fiercely

causing pain all over their bodies

Jenna turned pale; feeling uncomfortable almost suffocatingly.

"Why are you ignoring me? That's too much! Do you think you're cool just because you're going

participate in Graley Piano Competition?" Ashlyn pushed Jenna without warning

The girl fell down unexpectedly onto the ground scraping her hand on impact making small sounds

from pain escaping through gritted teeth.

She instinctively looked down at her hand only seeing blood seeping out from where skin had been

scraped off

Biting back tears while glaring angrily at Ashlyn "Why did you push me!"

Ashlyn looked down at her with an arrogant posture. "You accidentally fell, and you still want to blame

me?"

Jenna gritted her teeth in anger.

"Jenna!" Just then, a car pulled up to the association building's entrance. A tall man stepped out of the

car and quickly walked over to Jenna, helping her up from the ground.

"How are you?" Brayden held onto her as she breathed lightly against his neck like a feather scratching

him.

His deep eyes seemed bottomless, but when he saw Jenna's bleeding hand, a flash of anger passed

through them.

"I'm fine. Let's go." Jenna whispered softly.

Why was Brayden here? She didn't want him getting into trouble because of her altercation with

Ashlyn.

"Your hand is bleeding; how can you be fine?" Brayden stood like a wall in front of Ashlyn, towering

over her by more than a head height. He glared at her mercilessly and said, "Miss Ritter, next time you

bully someone, I hope you can see your target clearly."

Ashlyn felt uncomfortable inside as she suppressed the fire within herself. "Are you guys trying to scam

me?"

Last night she had eavesdropped on Mrs. Ritter and Donovan talking about how deeply rooted the

Ritter family was - even if Cody got promoted, they wouldn't be afraid.

So today Mrs. Ritter humiliated Jenna.

Since Ashlyn had support from her mother, she naturally wanted to step on Jenna too.

She wanted nothing more than crushing anyone related to Sylvia underfoot - when Sylvia and Franklin

bullied Ashlyn in the mall that day, it left an indelible impression on Ashlyn's mind

In this office building where there were not only members of the piano association but also many white-

collar workers from other companies coming back-and-forth frequently attracting quite some attention

soon enough.

Jenna's face turned gloomy; originally feeling extremely bad now being watched by so many people

due to this small matter made it unbearable for her - She couldn't help but shrink into Brayden's arms,

"Brayden, let's go home."

Brayden glared irritably at Ashlyn. His precious girl who he protected every day being humiliated by

such a despicable woman was touching his bottom line!

He grabbed hold of Ashylnn's neck tightly warning. "I warn you. If you ever again dare bully my sister,

you'll face the music!"

"You!" Her face turned red with anger as she struggled against him just then Braydon threw one arm

out flinging Ashlyn onto the ground!

She was wearing high heels, and being in such a messy state on the ground made her feel both

embarrassed and angry. And it hurt too! She rubbed her long manicured fingers against the ground,

breaking several of them. The pain made her grit her teeth, unable to manage her expression.

"Ah, these are my new nails."

"Miss Ritter, do you know why you can't play the piano well?" Jenna walked up to Ashlyn and looked at

her broken fingers. "Because... you use too many fancy things. Which outstanding pianist would make

such complicated nails with their hands? It affects your touch too much."

After speaking, Jenna said to Brayden, "Brayden, let's go."

"Miss Ritter... Jenna is too arrogant." A member of the Piano Association who had been watching all

along came over and helped Ashlyn up from the ground. "She must be retaliating against you because

she is unhappy that Mrs. Ritter arranged for you to participate in the composition competition."

Ashlyn stood up and looked at her fingers with heartache, "It's okay. She'll see how good I am in a few

days when we compete."

She glared hatefully at Jenna's back as she thought, "Jenna, just wait for me."

In the hospital.

Sylvia and Franklin entered Cody's ward only to see him sitting on his bed eating breakfast with a

pillow behind his back.

"How do you feel, Cody?"

Cody smiled, "Sylvia and Franklin are here? I'm recovering pretty well."

Mrs. Wright saw Jasper put down his gift bag on the table so she quickly said politely,"Why bring gifts

when visiting us? We're not strangers after all."

"Cody really picked up another life this time around. I wonder who was behind it all?"

"Mrs. Wright, don't worry. MI6 is investigating this matter. Cody has just taken office. There must be

someone who has coveted this position for a long time. Everyone sees managing Urgford as an easy

job, right?" Franklin spoke softly.

"That makes sense." Mrs. Wright sighed, "The higher one climbs, the colder it gets."

Cody took it lightly, "The police department has also been instructed by Mr. President to investigate this

matter. It should come out soon enough after some time passes."

Sylvia was flipping through Cody's medical records. She read them for a while before saying, "There

isn't anything serious. Resting for some time will do good though."

As she put down Cody's medical records, she saw that there were many gifts piled inside his ward.

They were probably from many noble families in Urgford who had come to visit him .

After all, with the new secretary just taking office, who wouldn't want to show some enthusiasm and

refresh their presence?

At that moment, Jasper, who had been sitting on the couch scrolling through his phone, murmured

softly, "Master Brayden?"

"What's up?" Franklin lazily sat on the couch. Even while sitting down, he still exuded a strong aura that

affected everyone in the hospital room.

"Master Franklin, take a look at this." Jasper moved closer to him and handed him his phone.

Franklin's deep gaze looked over and saw #Secretary Cody's Son Master Brayden publicly beating a

woman# trending high on social media. He watched the short video clip where Brayden was holding

Jenna in his arms while his other hand gripped onto a woman's neck.

The woman seemed vaguely familiar but since he never paid attention to women before he couldn't

remember who she was.

Sylvia frowned as she heard her phone beep with Twitter notifications of the latest news. She watched

Brayden's video clip.

"Ashlyn! Did this woman bully Jenna? Is that why Brayden is angry?"

"The Ritters?" Franklin raised an eyebrow sharply at Sylvia as they exchanged glances suspecting

them as one of their targets.

"Jenna and Brayden haven't come back yet but this incident has already gone viral online so it's

obvious there are people behind it." Franklin quickly drew conclusions.

Mrs. Wright was confused, "What are you guys talking about?"

"Take a look." Sylvia handed her phone over to Mrs. Wright who turned pale after seeing such

headlines which would directly affect Cody's career path.

It could range from being punished by public opinion or even losing their position entirely if they were

caught up in scandals like these for too long.

As Mrs. Wright had been married into the Wright family for many years now she always kept low profile

whereas even though Brayden was very cautious when speaking out loud...

This time...

Just then, Brayden came back holding Jenna's hand and immediately felt the tense atmosphere in the

hospital room, "What happened?"

"Brayden did you have conflict with the Ritter family?" Mrs. Wright spoke first sounding pained, "Why

are you so impulsive? The Ritter family isn't easy to deal with especially since your father just took

office..."

"How do you know what happened outside?" asked an odd-looking yet puzzled expression appeared

on Braden's face.

"It went viral online." Sylvia explained further, "You're getting slammed by netizens right now."

Jenna's face turned pale. "I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have gotten into a conflict with Ashlyn..."

"Brayden just wanted to stand up for me, but he was used by someone with malicious intent," she

continued.

Mrs. Wright looked anxious. "What do we do now? Jenna, don't blame yourself. The Ritters have been

causing trouble for a long time."

Franklin pondered for a moment before speaking up. "The Ritter family has always been arrogant and

Donovan Ritter, Ashlyn's father, even tried to run for Secretary before the President chose Wright

instead. Sylvia and I suspected that it was likely that the Ritters caused the Wrights to be injured."
