The CEO’s Betrayal: My Ex-lover Has Triplets
Chapter 69

Chapter 69- Billionaire wife

Jane scoffed when Tessa showed up to the bonfire party in a black top, a black leather jacket and grey skinny jeans. She thought her outfit was too ordinary compared to the expensive sequin she was donning, or so she thought.

To her surprise, even Celia Wentworth was in casual clothing. Luckily she stopped herself from commenting about Tessa’s outfit, otherwise, she would look like a fool for demeaning her clothes when Celia Wentworth was in the same outfit. However, she noticed that Tessa didn’t come with her boyfriend and a wicked smirk curled on her lips.

She looked at her and said, “Tessa, where’s your man? Is it true that you don’t have one?”

Tessa smiled and replied, “Don’t worry about my man. He will show up when the time is right.”

When Tessa and her friends passed and went to find a place to sit, Jane rolled her eyes and remarked, “She’s just too embarrassed to admit that she has no man of her own.”

Jessica Scott laughed and said, “If I were her, I wouldn’t want to announce that I’m someone’s mistress too. It’s too degrading.”

“Tessa is despicable and shameless. She wouldn’t care about being a sugar baby as long as she’s benefitting from it. This is why I want to take her off her high horse,” Jane proclaimed as her eyes followed Tessa.

She gritted her teeth as hatred brewed within her. Tessa kept treating her like air and it was getting on her nerves. ‘Who does she think she is?’

A bonfire was set up in one of the firepits on the beach. The fire was crackling and spitting sparks around the area. Tessa and the other two ladies were seated on a bench near the fire, warming up.

“I can’t wait to see what your former colleague is up to,” Michelle uttered.

Tessa didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary. So far, it seemed as if Jane just wanted to show off and nothing more. She glanced at Michelle and replied, “Perhaps she just invited us and has no ulterior motives.”

“Don’t be so sure about that… she looks like she wants to scratch your face with her nails. Be careful, I have a bad feeling about her,” Celia added.

Soon, they heard someone clinking his glass with a fork.

“Attention, everyone! May I have your attention!” It was Hunter, Jane’s boyfriend, who spoke.

When everyone’s attention was on him, he draped an arm around Jane’s shoulders and pulled her close, presenting, “I organised this party for my baby. I love her so much and she deserves

the world. She told me about how her colleague once bullied her just because she was the boss” mistress but tonight, I want to show that woman that Jane is a precious woman to me. I just bought her a brand new Subaru car-”

“Aaah!” Jane squealed when Hunter took out a car key.

She grabbed it from him and jumped happily while screaming excitedly. “Oh, my god! Oh, my god! You bought me a car!”

A round of applause erupted through the crowd. Jane’s friends congratulated her on the car, saying, “Congratulations, Jane. You deserve it.”

Jessica smirked in Tessa’s direction and added, “You see? you’re better than other women who choose to be mistresses. Congratulations on having your first car. Your boyfriend surely loves you.”

Jane hugged Hunter and said in an exaggerated tone, “Thank you so much, baby. Indeed, I had a difficult time when I just started working in the Wentworth group years ago. Someone thought she was better than me because she had a higher position. I love this car so much! At least I wasn’t desperate enough to date my boss and be his mistress when he had someone else that he loved.”

Jessica suddenly asked, “Who are you talking about, Jane? Are you saying the person who used to bully you is attending your party?”

Jane nodded and sighed. She replied, “I invited her out of kindness. I didn’t think she would actually show up here. When I saw her, I was reminded of how she used to humiliate me. Luckily, my man bought me a car to cheer me up.” S~ᴇaʀᴄh the (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“What a horrible and shameless person. I hate people who use their status to make other people suffer. Who is she?” Someone from the crowd asked.

Jane pretended to look around and then her eyes fell on Tessa. She approached her and said, “1 didn’t mean to tell everyone, Tessa. I’m sorry… I just felt bad that you still haven’t changed. Even now, you’ve seen that my boyfriend has bought me a car but you don’t seem happy for me. Are you still jealous of me? Does Celia know what kind of person you are?”

Celia frowned. Anger washed over her when she saw how her brother’s woman was being treated. She stood up and yelled, “What the hell do you think you’re doing? What gives you the right to insult my sister-in-law like that?”

Jane’s eyes widened. She pretended to be shocked and asked, “Your sister-in-law? I’m afraid you have been deceived. Tessa was Mr Wentworth’s mistress five years ago and he got rid of her when his true love returned. I’m sure she’s trying to get back with him by using you. Don’t let her fool you.”

“How dare-”

Celia was about to put Jane in her place when Tessa grabbed her hand and shook her head,

saying, “Let her be. I want to see what more lies she can come up with. I didn’t even know I was in a competition with her. Hearing that I used to bully her is news to me.”

Tessa had called Aaron earlier when they went to the villa. He was surprised that her phone was stolen. He interrogated her bodyguards but they were not at the beach and didn’t see the thief because Aaron had stopped them from following her there. He didn’t want them to see Tessa in her bikini when he could only see her through the pictures she sent.

When she asked him to come over. She told him she wanted him to come and help her because someone was bullying her. Aaron was ecstatic. This was the first time Tessa was asking him to deal with someone on her behalf.

She knew he still had a few minutes to arrive so she was waiting patiently for his arrival. It was unlike Tessa to wait for a knight in shining armour to save her, but at this moment, she wanted to be a damsel and to be saved by her prince charming.

Jane had gotten on her nerves and she wanted to show her that she would never be jealous of her because she had the most powerful man in the city as her man.

Someone from the crowd seemed to recognise Tessa. He stepped forward and presented, Isn’t that Tessa Hilton? She has a company. My father is doing some projects with her and I went with him to meet her a few times. Are you sure she’s the type of woman you’re saying she is?”

A murmur went through the crowd when they heard that Tessa had a company.

“She does look like someone who’s successful. No wonder she didn’t seem phased when Jane received a car from her boyfriend just now. It’s because she can afford to buy her own car.”

“Just look at how elegant and reserved she looks. I don’t think she’s as vicious as Jane is describing her.”

“Even her friends look like they are from wealthy families. She doesn’t look like she’s jealous of Jane to me. It must be Jane’s wishful thinking.”

Jane clenched her hands into fists when she heard the whispers. She glared at Tessa and sneered, saying, “Are you sure she started that company with her own capabilities? Perhaps she’s a sugar baby. I wonder what married old man you fooled, Tessa. But I won’t let you fool the Wentworths.”

Jane took out Tessa’s phone and showed the wallpaper to Celia. She asked, “Have you seen the wallpaper? She has three little bastards! Don’t be fooled by her. She’s a loose woman who dates other women’s men and has no shame. She can do anything for fame… I’m sure she was planning on hiding the fact that she has illegitimate kids from you and your brother.”

A murmur went through the crowd and all eyes fell on Tessa. Meanwhile, Tessa, Michelle and Celia shared a look. They were shocked to realise that Tessa’s phone was stolen by Jane. All that trouble just to come and make a fool out of herself. The resort in which she was trying to make herself look superior to Tessa belonged to Tessa’s soon-to-be husband.

Tessa found it funny. This was why she just kept quiet and listened to Jane’s unreasonable accusations. There was no point in arguing with such a person.

The crowd’s opinion changed faster than a rocket jet shoots up into space. They gave Tessa looks and said, “Oh my… who would have thought. She looks so decent, yet she got pregnant at such a young age.”

“I bet the company was sponsored by her sugar daddy. She’s finished and second-hand goods, how can she have a decent man?”

“Does she even know who the father of her children is?”

When Jane heard the whispers, a satisfied smirk crossed her lips. She glanced at Tessa and took her silence for embarrassment.

She folded her arms haughtily and said, “You know what, Tessa? I feel bad for you. If you apologise to me for how you looked down on me in the past, I’ll tell my boyfriend to help you with some capital so that you stop selling yourself to sugar daddies and restart your company on a clean slate.”

Jessica chimed in to support her friend, “That’s right. Despite how badly you treated Jane, she’s willing to help you start your life again. She will help you to become independent and although you can never find a good man like Hunter because you’re a baby mama, you would at least have clean money to raise your kids with. Just apologise to her and she will help you with starting capital.”

A gust of wind suddenly blew through the area and the temperature seemed to drop to a negative, despite the bonfire crackling wildly. A deep menacing voice suddenly resonated around the area.

“Why the hell would my billionaire wife need starting capital from you?”
