Chapter 1904

Jenna's mom was the quintessential romantic, and from as far back as she could remember, Jenna had heard people gossip about her mom and Freddie's whirlwind romance. Even years later, folks couldn't get enough of it, though their words often came with a side of mockery aimed at her mom. Deep down, Jenna’s mom knew she’d made some bad calls.

Back in the day, she’d declared she’d cut ties with the Costello family to be with Freddie, her bodyguard, thinking it was the classic tale of a princess and her knight. But really, it was just teenage rebellion in disguise. Freddie was undeniably good-looking, with striking features and eyes that seemed to hold all the feelings in the world.

In Jenna's early years, her parents seemed to get along just fine. But as time went on, Freddie's true colors started to show. He used Jenna’s mom to climb the social ladder, gaining power, wealth, and control over the Dennis Group. Then he dove headfirst into a life of indulgence, and after getting caught by her mom a few times, he would beg her not to leave him.

But things got worse. Freddie started to cut her mom off from everyone else. Eventually, he was bold enough to bring other women home, and life for Jenna and her mom turned into a nightmare. Those women would mock and ridicule her mom.

The night her mom tried to escape, Freddie beat her to death. After she died, Freddie knew he was in deep trouble and lived in constant fear. If the Costello family ever found out how she died, his empire—the Dennis Group—would come crashing down. He was finally scared, but it was too little, too late.

When Lennon sent people to corner the Dennis family, they found Jenna trembling in a hiding spot. Freddie’s downfall was inevitable. But Lennon didn’t strike immediately. Jenna still remembers the old man’s advice: if she wanted revenge for her mother, she’d have to do it herself. So, she trained relentlessly, never letting herself rest. She believed women could be just as strong and successful as men, and she wasn’t going to let anyone prove otherwise. Only by becoming extraordinary could she hope to make Freddie pay.

Then Adler came into her life. At first, she just saw him as a sneaky kid. Despite being a guy, he seemed to lack drive. He’d follow her around, watching her practice martial arts, thinking she hadn’t noticed. Later, reflecting on their childhood, she told him, “Back then, I thought you were clueless, but I didn’t say anything because we weren’t that close. As we got older and became friends, I realized it wasn’t just around me—you were genuinely clueless.”

Adler's face fell hearing this. Jenna was just being honest.

“...”

“Didn’t you ever think I was...?”

“What?”

“You know, amazing or something!”
