Son-In-Law Gets an Upgrade novel Chapter 931

Chapter 931 Wallpaper 

With Matthias taken care of, Elsa finally had a moment to take a proper look at the disheveled woman inside the car. “Are you Heather Jennings?” she asked in surprise. 

Heather, who was trying to straighten her clothes, was equally surprised that the policewoman recognized her. “Why? Do you know me?” 

Elsa nodded but did not disclose how she knew Heather immediately. Instead, she pulled Heather out of the car and helped her tidy her hair and clothes. 

Elsa then rummaged through her bag, pulled out her cosmetics, and offered them to Heather. “Would you like to freshen up? Or should I take you home?” 

Without hesitation, Heather accepted Elsa’s cosmetics. After reapplying her foundation, she finally felt more herself. 

Once satisfied with her appearance, she returned the cosmetics to Elsa and thanked her sincerely. 

Under normal circumstances, Heather would have opted to go home after such an incident to collect her thoughts in solitude. However, today was a special day. It was Alex’s wedding day, and she hoped this event might give her a chance to win him back. 

“You’re welcome,” Elsa responded with a smile. 

She was about to leave, considering that the wedding was about to start and she had already spent quite a bit of time here. 

“How do you know me? I don’t recall ever meeting you before,” Heather asked, noticing Elsa’s intent to leave. 

Turning back, Elsa chuckled. “Ms. Jennings, you seem to have forgotten. We met over a year ago when Alex was on television for thwarting a bank robbery. Back then, his phone wallpaper was your picture. That’s why you left quite an impression on me.” 

“A year ago…” Heather’s mind drifted back to the memory. Alex had indeed been on television for his heroic act and had even received a reward of ten million, which he had immediately donated. 

Back then, she had been furious with him for his reckless generosity. Now, upon reflection, she saw that Alex had never really needed that money. His willingness to donate it displayed his magnanimity. Why didn’t I see that back then? Why did I only blame him for that? 

Elsa’s revelation that Alex had her picture as his wallpaper hit her hard. She realized she must have occupied a special place in his heart at that time. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have set her picture as his wallpaper. 

Her current predicament was of her own making. It was due to her constant mistrust and the hurt she had caused him. She had even fallen for another man. 

If the chairman of Four Seas Corporation was not Alex, she might have cheated not only mentally, but also physically. 

A pang of guilt toward Alex suddenly pricked at Heather’s heart, but she was quick to dismiss it. 

If Alex had been upfront about his identity and had publicly announced his wealth from the beginning. perhaps they might not have ended in divorce.
