Betrayed, But Not Defeated novel Chapter 135

Jennifer's expression turned disdainful. "Sure."

Selena's face lit up with excitement at her agreement. "I know you're the sensible one!"

But Jennifer's next words left her feeling utterly disgusted, as if she had swallowed something vile.

"I've already handed everything over to Daniel. If you have any requests, feel free to go directly to him," Jennifer said with a shrug.

The moment she said it, an overwhelming sense of satisfaction washed over her. For the first time, she realized that Daniel's rise to power was a blessing in disguise. The people who once demanded money and resources from her were no longer her concern.

And when she saw Selena's expression shift from excitement to disbelief, she almost felt like humming in triumph.

"Nonsense! How could you hand over the company?"

Jacob slammed the table as Jennifer finished speaking. This time, no one stopped him. Everyone just stared at Jennifer in confusion.

Jennifer curled her lips. "Don't forget, even though I married Daniel, the company has always belonged to him. If he wants it back, then so be it."

She stood up. "And unless someone’s dead, don’t call me for anything unimportant."

"You ungrateful brat! Watch your mouth!"

"Jennifer, you're crossing the line! How dare you speak like that?"

As the Walshs hurled insults at her, Jennifer simply smiled, feeling lighter than ever.

She didn't care about their screaming or cursing. If they had the guts, they could take it up with Daniel. She wouldn't mind watching them suffer at his hands.

But the thought of Daniel suddenly dampened her good mood. There were things she needed to figure out.

She glanced down at herself, a hint of pride flashing in her eyes. People always said men conquered the world while women conquered men. She had what it took, and above all, she was legally Daniel's wife. Surely he wasn't beyond her grasp.
