My Beloved Ex - wife
Chapter 13

Zetta was really surprised and did not know what was really in the mind of Mrs Brenda to accuse her of wanting to have fun using Keenan money. Even when she was Keenan's wife, not once did Zetta use the man's money for her, especially now that their status has been divorced.

"I really don't understand what the lady is talking about. I've never cheated on you as you've accused, and I've never used your son's money. So, please don't talk about anything that doesn't make sense, especially in public like this" Zetta said in response to her ex-mother-in-law's taunts.

Mrs Brenda seemed to be unable to hear Zetta deny the words she was accusing, but Zetta did not care. He continued his steps past the woman, followed by Theo and Alex.

However, it wasn't Lady Brenda's name if she let Zetta off just like that. Angered by his ridicule, Mrs Brenda infuriated Zetta, then grabbed her ex-daughter-in-law's hair mercilessly.

"Aw!!" Zetta screamed unconsciously. Between the pain and the shock of getting a sudden attack from the former in-law.

"Basic fucking women. So much so now, yeah! Feel this!" maki Madame Brenda with her hands still clutching Zetta's hair.

Everyone who witnessed it certainly surprised him, not least Theo and Alex. Theo who was closer to Zetta immediately grabbed both hands of Lady Brenda, so inevitably the grip of Lady Brenda on Zetta's hair became detached. Soon Theo pushes the body away from Zetta so she doesn't try to hurt Zetta again.

However, due to Theo's overpowering impulse, Mrs Brenda was plunged to the floor with great sadness. He grimaced in pain as both of his knees hit the floor quite hard.

"You ...." Madam Brenda looked towards Theo with a face of shock. Maybe he didn't expect Theo would dare to push him in front of this many people.

"Zetta is no longer your daughter-in-law that you can treat at will, Madam," Theo sighed furiously.

Since long ago Theo did not only not like Keenan alone, but also to the entire family of the man. Of course it was because of the way they treated Zetta that was so inhumane. However, of course, all this time Theo could not interfere too much in the affairs of Zetta because at that time Zetta was still the wife of Keenan.

"Young brash, do not know manners. You can push the old man to the floor" said Mrs Brenda with reddened eyes. He suddenly sobbed and cried still, sitting on the floor, like someone who had just been subjected to persecution.

What Mrs Brenda does is getting people's attention. Many approached out of curiosity as to what was happening. They all seemed to whisper to each other, no matter what was said. Obviously, that's definitely not a good talk.

Seeing that there was a commotion, the store manager finally came to check.

"Sorry, what's going on?" ask the store manager while looking at Theo and Mrs Brenda who are still sitting on the floor alternately. The middle-aged woman looked increasingly put on a pitiful face in front of the store manager.

"This young man, he's really brash. How could he push an older woman to the floor" said Mrs Brenda, pointing at Theo. Not to forget he showed a pretentious face to be persecuted so that his playing victim action looks convincing.

Zetta could only smile asymmetrical looking at her former mother-in-law's lousy acting.

"Let me explain what happened." Alex, who had been silent since, finally made a sound.

Seeing that, Zetta seemed to frown. Although Alex is currently on the rise and known to many people, but still the response of the store manager to him looks unnatural. He wondered, really if Alex was really a poor boy who came from the village?

Zetta had not thought further, Alex spoke to the store manager again. He took the man a little aside and explained what was really going on. He also said that everything can be checked in detail through CCTV footage.

After getting enough explanation, the store manager approached Mrs Brenda. He helped the middle-aged woman stand up and apologized politely.

"I'm sorry that Madam had to experience such an unpleasant thing in our store. But none of that would have happened if Madam had not attacked this Miss first" the store manager told Mrs Brenda.

Mrs Brenda is not to blame. He seemed to snort angrily and stared nigh at Zetta and Theo.

"Why blame me? Those who are brash and shameless," denied Mrs Brenda.

"What have we done? Is it not the one who acts insolent and shameless that is precisely you? You immediately insulted my friend as soon as we walked into this store. Not until there, you also mistreated my friend because he ignored your ridicule." Theo says sarcasm.

"Omong empty! You can twist the real events" denied Mrs Brenda again.

"I turned the real thing around? Did ya? Everyone in the store saw what you did. If you have forgotten the action you did just now, CCTV in this store seems to make you clearly remind every detail of the action you have done to my friend. We can also take him directly to the police station as evidence of unpleasant acts and defamation" Theo said sharply. His tone sounded very serious.

Madam Brenda was seen frozen while gulping her saliva in a somewhat tiredness. Of course he remembered all his words to Zetta earlier, as well as his actions that attacked Zetta for no reason. It's just that he doesn't know if it's going to cause any trouble, because all this time he's used to insulting and mistreating Zetta worse than this, but there are any problems after that.

Lady Brenda again snorted and threw away her dislike face, before finally leaving the store with a sour face. That way, the crowd dispersed on their own. The store manager also left the place after previously apologizing to Zetta for the inconvenience of being in the store.

"Are you okay?" ask Theo to Zetta.

Zetta simply replied with a nod. They continued their original plans to shop at the store.

Shortly thereafter, Theo appears to have gotten a phone call from someone. The man stepped aside for a moment to one corner of the store to answer the phone call and was seen speaking with a serious expression.

"My friend just told me that Keenan's assistant is currently examining the area around Helia's accident" Theo told Zetta.

Zetta was silent for a moment. She recalled that Helia had confessed to Keenan earlier that she had run over the woman. Could it be that now Keenan's assistant was in that place to look for evidence on Helia's confession?

"I'm still monitoring what Helia did after she accused me of causing her accident six years ago. If he doesn't do anything else, then I will. But if after this he did something weird to frame me, I would definitely give him a much bigger reply. Just look at." Zetta muttered with a serious and earnest look.
