Remarried Wife: She will Remarry, But Another Person-Chapter 193: Things Are Not Clear Between Them
Jasper Fitzgerald nodded and said, "Mm, it’s really nothing, don’t worry."
His reassuring voice was particularly warm and low.
Sabrina Hayes saw that he didn’t seem to be lying, so she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The old man also walked over to them at this point, coming specifically to thank Jasper Fitzgerald, "Thank you for saving Sabrina."
There was a hint of post-crisis relief in the old man’s tone.
He said to Jasper Fitzgerald, "If there’s anything we can do in the future, don’t hesitate to ask. The Chiron Sect will gladly return the favor."
Jasper Fitzgerald could tell he genuinely cared about Sabrina Hayes and meant what he said.
But he just waved his hand and said, "No need, it was just a small effort, but..."
He shifted his tone, his eyes suddenly turning dark, and turned to look at Director Warren in the distance, "Such a grand banquet being disrupted like this is rather inappropriate, wouldn’t you agree, Director?"
Those around, unsure of Jasper Fitzgerald’s background, nonetheless heard an inherent authority in his words.
Director Warren, hearing this, hurried over, responding with a respectful attitude, "You’re right. I wonder... how should we handle this appropriately?"
Director Warren was quite surprised because he initially received information that this person shouldn’t be attending tonight.
Facing his questioning, Director Warren felt a tingling sensation on his scalp.
Nash Spencer chimed in, "Everyone saw this Miss Sinclairs pushing someone, and at the worst, there’s surveillance. Malicious wounding, almost causing serious injuries, should certainly be reported to the police.
Plus, there’s a need to discuss mental distress and compensation, and there are so many fine wines and glasses shattered, not to mention the shock experienced by so many guests. Shouldn’t there be an apology for that too?"
Hearing this, the old man furiously said, "An apology isn’t enough! It’s outrageous, daring to injure my apprentice like that!
If there isn’t an explanation for today’s matter, it won’t end!"
After hearing Nash Spencer and the old man’s words, Brooke Sinclairs’ face turned extremely pale.
She finally realized her predicament.
Given her current status, was there anyone here she could afford to offend?
Not the people, just talking about the compensation.
She didn’t have the money for that either...
Brooke Sinclairs began to regret her impulsive behavior earlier.
If this couldn’t be resolved properly, what awaited her was imprisonment.
No! That was absolutely unacceptable!
Brooke Sinclairs grew anxious, almost instinctively looking to Jordan Hawthorne, hoping to seek his help.
But Jordan Hawthorne’s gaze was fixed entirely on Sabrina Hayes, intensely staring at her and the man beside her, his eyes almost aflame with anger.
Again, this guy...
Unable to find any information, repeatedly appearing around his daughter and ex-wife!
Just now, he saw quite clearly that in the critical moment, that man protected Sabrina Hayes at all costs.
Could they really be that innocent?
Now, with Sabrina Hayes standing beside him, the two seemed inexplicably fitting together.
This made him incredibly angry.
Brooke Sinclairs saw the anger in Jordan Hawthorne’s eyes.
She followed his gaze, and her heart nearly sank to the bottom...
She felt this time might really be the end for her.
Director Warren, having heard Nash Spencer and the old man’s words, almost without any hesitation said, "Alright, I’ll go handle it now."
It was only then that Jordan Hawthorne came to his senses.
Brooke Sinclairs was someone he brought along, and if she were taken away, it would also tarnish the Hawthorne Family’s reputation.
So he couldn’t let her be taken away!
Jordan Hawthorne stepped forward and said, "Director Warren, the guests are still here, and if it escalates to the point of calling the police, it wouldn’t look good.
I hope you’ll give the Hawthorne Family some face. We are willing to cover all the expenses of tonight’s banquet as a gesture of good faith, and the hotel compensation won’t be omitted.
As for... the apology Miss Hayes and Elder Shepherd want, I’ll also have Brooke Sinclairs do it."
After speaking, he looked coldly at Brooke Sinclairs and said, "Apologize for your actions just now."
Brooke Sinclairs felt touched by the earlier words, thinking he hadn’t forgotten her.
But hearing the last sentence, her expression was filled with incredulity, "You want me to apologize to her???"
Why!
If it weren’t for Sabrina Hayes, she wouldn’t have lost her reason and done something so stupid!
It was all Sabrina Hayes’ fault!
Brooke Sinclairs was unwilling to apologize, standing there without moving.
Jordan Hawthorne’s face turned dark, his gaze ice-cold as he looked at her, an intimidating pressure radiating from him.
He sternly emphasized, "Apologize! Don’t make me say it a third time!!!"
Brooke Sinclairs’ face went pale, but she didn’t dare refuse.
She knew that if she didn’t comply, Jordan Hawthorne might really abandon her.
By that time, who would help her?
So, she had no choice but to apologize with a pale face for her earlier actions.
"I’m sorry, I spoke out of turn and impulsively earlier."
Hearing this, Josee Sheffield chuckled, "Is that all? I can’t hear any sincerity!"
Brooke Sinclairs, brimming with humiliation, gritted her teeth and bowed, repeating, "I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have been disrespectful to Elder Shepherd earlier, and I definitely shouldn’t have lost my reason and pushed Miss Hayes...
I was hit before, lost my reason a bit, and didn’t think I’d knock over those wine towers."
Josee Sheffield, however, felt that this wasn’t enough.
He continued, "Is that all? When apologizing, at least say something like, ’I hope Miss Hayes and Boss Shepherd are magnanimous and can forgive me’, right?
What, you can’t even apologize? Do you need someone to teach you?"
Brooke, of course, knew.
She just felt it was too humiliating, too disgraceful, so she didn’t want to say it.
But now, with Josee Sheffield repeatedly confronting her, she was filled with hate, her eyes reddened, yet she dared not resist and could only be forced to repeat it once more.
"I’m sorry, I hope Miss Hayes and Boss Shepherd are magnanimous and can forgive me."
After she finished, Jordan Hawthorne finally spoke up, looking at Sabrina Hayes and asked, "So, Boss Shepherd and Miss Hayes, are you satisfied?"
Sabrina coldly met his gaze.
She knew well that Jordan was doing this to protect Brooke, to prevent them from calling the police.
The matter earlier indeed couldn’t convict Brooke.
After all, the other party could argue that she lost her mind after being hit, and accidentally hurt someone, not out of deliberate harm.
Considering she might have to go to the police station for a deposition or something later, Sabrina really didn’t want to continue entangling with these two.
After all, there were still so many people present, and the business meeting hadn’t ended.
If the police got involved, the banquet would also be forced to interrupt, which might make things look really bad.
No matter what, face must be given to Director Warren.
So, Sabrina said coldly, "I do not accept your apology, but Brooke, I hope this is the last time you speak disrespectfully to my master, any more, and I will certainly not let you go!"
As for Jordan, she didn’t even bother to look at him.
Seeing that Sabrina had let the matter slide, Jordan didn’t say anything, but instead bid farewell to Elder Shepherd, saying, "Then we’ll take our leave for today."
Saying that, he turned and left with large strides.
Brooke saw him leaving and hurriedly, with a swollen red face, awkwardly followed behind him.
After they left, the guests present all sighed.
"The face of The Hawthorne Family has really been completely disgraced by Brooke." 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
"Indeed, even Jordan Hawthorne is left without honor..."
"Who asked him to pick such a woman?"
"It’s indeed too unlucky."
...
Sabrina stood by her master’s side, and the old man started to speak, addressing everyone, "Apologies, because of some family matters today, we have let everyone see a joke, let the banquet continue, shall we? Do not let the previous incident affect your mood."
Elder Shepherd personally spoke, who would dare to have any opinions.
The guests hurriedly smiled and agreed, "Not at all, not at all..."
They even turned it around and comforted the master and disciple.
"Today, for Miss Hayes, it really was an unexpected disaster, Elder Shepherd and Miss Hayes, don’t let unimportant people affect your mood."
"Indeed, getting angry over those kinds of people is not worth it."
Amid the comfort of the crowd, everyone returned to their original seats.
Sabrina also said to Director Warren, "Sorry for causing you trouble."
Director Warren waved his hand, completely unconcerned, "Miss Hayes, what are you saying, they were the ones bullying, let’s sit down, Mr. Fitzgerald, you..."
He looked at Jasper Fitzgerald, with a respectful look in his eyes.
Jasper Fitzgerald, however, spoke, "I won’t sit, I have some matters to attend, I just came by to greet briefly, I was planning to leave."
"Is that so?"
Director Warren, hearing this, didn’t insist.
Elder Shepherd spoke then, asking Director Warren, "This young man is?"
"He..."
Director Warren glanced at Elder Shepherd, then at Jasper Fitzgerald, and for a moment didn’t know how best to introduce him.
Sabrina took on the task, promptly saying, "He’s Jasper Fitzgerald, Zara’s psychologist."
"Oh, is that so?"
Elder Shepherd discreetly assessed the person in front of him.
With years of experience, he could tell this young man was clearly more than just a psychologist.
His outstanding appearance, the noble demeanor all around him, the inherent authority when speaking earlier, and Director Warren’s attitude towards him all made it clear he wasn’t a simple person.
However, the old man didn’t show it.
He reopened his mouth to thank him, "Thank you for saving Sabrina earlier, otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable."
Jasper Fitzgerald said warmly, "You are too kind, I happened to be there, just a small deed... But you, I’ve long admired your name, to see you today is a junior’s honor."
His demeanor was composed and, when reaching out to the old man, neither servile nor overbearing, yet gentle and courteous, leaving a very comfortable impression.
Even the old man couldn’t help but take a few more looks at him.
Indeed a very outstanding young man.
He graciously shook hands with him.
After greeting the old man, Jasper Fitzgerald didn’t linger.
Before leaving, he said to Sabrina, "Then I’ll head back first, don’t let tonight’s event affect your mood."
Sabrina nodded, smiling as she said, "I won’t, I’ll see you off!"
"Alright."
Jasper Fitzgerald looked at her but didn’t refuse.
