Misunderstanding

last update Last Updated: 2025-08-15 18:34:44

The next day. Jenna took her time to dress, when she was ready she started pacing front and back. “Hmmm, your assistant told me you don't want to sell the pen, can you…Ahh no, that won't work!” She shook her head.

“ Please, I really need this pen…Ahhh, no,” sighed on the couch, absent-mindedly, Kelly was also present in the living room.

‘Ding’

“ Oh lord,” Jenna trembled. She knew what that notification was about. She picked up her phone and checked it “ Hello, Miss Jenna. I want to tell you in advance that the boss is now available”

Jenna inhaled and blew out some air from her mouth. It's been eight years, why are you still nervous?

“ Just go, stop acting as if you want to confess to your crush,” Kelly said.

“ You should get over Esteban too,” Jenna laughed and stuck out her tongue.

At AH Technology. Jenna hesitated to enter after receiving the word ‘ come in’. She sighed nervously and finally entered.

“ Wow, " she admired the office. Pretending not to care about the latter on the black leather chair.

‘Get hold of yourself, Jenna.’ she assured herself.

She gathered her courage and finally looked at him, which she regretted immediately!

Eight years have passed, not the same Archie she devised. He's more handsome and very mature. She swallowed, “Good Morning, Mr A-Archie,” she greeted and forced a smile.

Archie stared at her in amusement. “ Welcome, Miss. I heard you want to see me badly. May I help you?” He decided to play along.

‘Badly?’ Jenna laughed. “ He said you don't want to sell the pen.. please can you sell it to me and make another one?” She finally lowered her pride and pleaded. She will deal with him after getting the pen anyway.

Archie raised a brow “ May I know what you want to use it for?”

“ For personal use”

Archie chuckled. “ When registering for the pen, I must know what my client wants to use it for”

“ That's a lie, since when did you care about that” she was annoyed. ‘Enough of this game Archie, just give me the pen”

Archie stared at her deeply, making her uncomfortable. She noticed her cleavages were exposed, she flinched and quickly adjusted it.

“ Why did you leave?” Archie suddenly asked her. Jenna was surprised.

“ Is that even a question?” She laughed bitterly, “You should be married to your mom's best friend's daughter, you used to believe whatever she told you. Please do me a favour by selling the pen to me"

“ I knew what happened wasn't your fault” he had investigated it. Someone uploaded a video of Jenna kissing a famous actor. The news was all over the internet. Esteban made sure it disappeared on every platform, but the Hindleys' family had seen it.

Archie's mother went crazy and threatened to divorce her son. When Archie came to the family, Jenna looked at him hopefully. She believed he would trust her, even if the person's features looked so much like hers, but the video was edited.

To her surprise, Archie didn't take a glance at her, he paid full attention to what Eleanor was telling him. Jenna looked at herself in shame and left Hindely's household.

He went to their matrimonial house and packed her things. She signed the divorce papers and placed them on his bed.

Since that day, Jenna disappeared from his life like she never existed. Archie was furious and asked if she was with Esteban or Norman.

They stood up for her and blamed Archie for his foolishness. Archie decided to give her time. Jenna's leaving him helped him a lot. His enemies only attacked him without involving her.

Jenna looked at Archie in confusion “It doesn't matter again, it's already the past, whether you know about the truth or not, it's useless now”

“ You don't understand…”

“ Archie please….”

“ Let me speak!” His deep, authoritative voice suddenly echoed in the office. Startling Jenna. She looked at him in daze. She knew this dangerous voice…

“ I knew my mom was up to something. I texted you before I came here. We should play on with them. I also said I will pretend I'm listening to them, do you know what happened when you left?” He frowned in frustration. He hated the fact that she suddenly gave up on him.

Jenna was stunned. She didn't check her phone, "I lost it in the taxi " She lowered her head. “ Okay, how is the pen? Will you still sell it for me?”

Archie was stunned. “The pen is more important than me?”

“ What do you want me to do? Your mom and mine are enemies, so I can't marry you, Archie”

Archie raised a brow “ Really? Is that what you think?” He pressed his lips together and nodded. “ The pen will be available tomorrow, and my assistant will collect your details.” He said.

“ Thanks”, Jenna whispered and stood immediately, not daring to take another glance. He met Martinez's sad face at the entrance “Please wait for me outside, Miss Jenna” Jenna nodded thankfully and left.

Martinez looked at Archie's dark face and sighed. “ You can't sort things out that way, she's a lady, let her go think about it”, he reassured.

“ Register her name, It will take a day to d******d her details."

Martinez nodded and left. Jenna smiled as soon as he came out, but faded when she smelled cigarettes on him. ‘Archie is smoking again?’

Seeing her confused expression. “ He's back to his other self, well, he's in a good mood today, he even refused to kill, just buried him alive before coming to see you”

Jenna froze. “ He what?” She asked in disbelief.

Martinez laughed in amusement. “ Let me tell you something Miss Jenna, he has always liked that, even before he met you. It was when you married him that he stopped”

    “Shit! What the heck is happening? Adan is dead?” Kelly stared at her phone, reading the news in disbelief. She quickly went to find Jenna and saw her giggling with Bruce. Archie’s calm face was there too.“Why aren’t you dressed? The wedding is about to start,” Bruce said.“Have you read the news?” Kelly asked, confused.

    “When is he coming?”Jenna rolled her eyes. “Why would I tell you? But soon.”Kelly glared at her and stood up. “Let me go and get ready for the party!” she said, leaving the room.Jenna chuckled. Soon, her phone beeped. She glanced at the screen and raised a brow at the message.“Let’s meet now.”.....In the backyard, near the pool…Jenna stared at Norman’s back as he stood facing the pool, silent. She sighed. She’d been thinking of letting go of the grudge and just ignoring him, but since he texted, she was willing to hear what he had to say.“I'm here,” she said, walking under the canopy and sitting down on one of the chairs.Norman turned around, looking at her, saying nothing.Jenna couldn’t read his expression. She frowned. “Don’t tell me you still have feelings for me?” she blurted, suddenly remembering what Kelly told her.Norman walked closer and sat in front of her, chuckling. “Why would I?”Jenna sighed in relief and nodded. “So why are you looking at me like that?”“I jus

That's rare.“Hey,” Bruce smiled at her and opened the back seat door. “Get in.”Kelly looked at him in confusion but still entered. She froze when she saw Archie resting with his eyes closed. What’s happening? she thought.Bruce shut the door and got back into the driver’s seat before starting the engine.“What happened?” Kelly asked. Bruce was the only one she felt close to, after all.“Joshua called Archie,” Bruce said, “about Marcus and Gabriel’s plan to kidnap you.”Kelly froze. She quickly checked her phone and saw Jude and Joshua’s missed calls, along with several messages from them. She scrolled down but didn’t see any call or message from Esteban. She hadn’t been able to reach him since he left almost two weeks ago.“Is Esteban’s line going through? I’ve been unable to call him,” she mumbled.“He’s very busy. We just need to ke

Jenna pulled back and held Kelly’s arms. “I don’t need to tell you anything because I trust you.”Kelly’s heart softened. “You don’t have to worry about anything.” Jenna nodded and glanced at the others.Norman sighed and glanced at her. “Don’t appear before him every time. You don’t have to seduce him…”“Please stop,” Jenna snapped at him. “Are you jealous because you’re the only single one here?”Norman raised a brow while Archie nodd

    “I don't know what's going on anymore. Where is your father?” David asked Joshua as soon as he entered Joshua’s office with Jude “ even Mr Andrew? What are they trying to tell us about Hindley’s grandchildren?”“He said they aren't triplets, but quadruplets,” Jude replied and sighed.David’s eyes widened. “So, does that mean one of them is Hindley and he remembered the past memories?”Jude rolled her eyes. “They aren’t really the same. They have his memories because of the revenge. The Hindley family history is always different from others, that’s the mystery about them.”“But they’re all missing now,” David sighed, glancing at Joshua, who was quietly focused on his laptop.“I know his plan,” Jude chuckled. “He wants to hide them until they grow up.
