Chapter 129:

“Watch your mouth. What right do you have to speak of Jenessa in such a manner p>

Ryan’s fury deepened upon seeing Richard defend Jenessa, as though he were the antagonist in this drama.

Overwhelmed by a sudden, intense urge to reclaim Jenessa, Ryan lost all semblance of reason.

His possessiveness obliterated any concern for her feelings.

His gaze, dark and threatening, fixed on Richard.

“What right? I’m her husband!” Ryan exclaimed, his voice cold.

At the sound of “husband,” Richard’s face grew even darker.

He was acutely aware of who Ryan was—CEO of WorldLink Group and, more importantly, Jenessa’s husband.

Although Ryan knew little about him, he was no stranger to Ryan’s life.

After all, this man had married the girl he had always wanted to protect.

This belief had prompted him to leave the country silently, avoiding any news from home for three years to spare himself the agony of seeing Jenessa’s supposedly joyful life with Ryan.

Upon his return, however, Richard discovered that few people knew of Ryan’s marital status, with many mistaking the supermodel Maisie as his true partner.

This revelation enraged Richard.

How could Ryan disregard Jenessa so blatantly, neglecting her as his wife?

Tonight, Richard had hoped to discuss Jenessa’s current circumstances with her directly, yet he had not found the appropriate moment to do so.

From the moment Ryan showed up in front of them, Richard had witnessed his disrespectful treatment of Jenessa.

Richard’s anger swelled, yet his composure restrained his rage.

“Mr. Haynes, is this how you speak to your wife? You should show her some respect and retract your words,” Richard said calmly.

Ryan’s hands balled into fists, his forehead veins bulging as he struggled to contain his fury.

He sneered.

“Since you know I’m Jenessa’s husband, step aside. I’m taking her home p>

Richard’s expression stayed cool, his demeanor icy.

“That won’t happen. She isn’t going back with you. I can’t allow you to hurt her further p>

Ryan’s face grew stormier, his breathing heavy with anger, his eyes blazing as he glared at Richard.

The air crackled with the escalating hostility between the two men.

Jenessa, unable to stand the mounting tension, intervened.

She stepped forward, drew a deep breath, and turned to Ryan.

“Alright, Ryan, I’ll go back with you p>

“No way,” Richard countered sharply before Ryan could express any relief.

He looked sternly at Jenessa.

“Jennie, you mustn’t go with him p>
