The Wife They Tried to Replace Is Now Untouchable novel Chapter 309

Chapter 309

Watching Sana’s retreating figure, Jessica felt a stab of guilt.

She knew Sana was worried she’d get hurt by Brian again, but….

Jessica stared down at the snack bag in her hands, her emotions a tangled mess she couldn’t so

out.

Still seething, Sana got home and tried to unwind by scrolling through her phone, only to be hit with a trending topic about Brian queuing for snacks,

“This made trending?” Sana squinted at the

convinced the world had gone bonkers.

She clicked into the comments, where it was

about how sweet and thoughtful Brian was.

Some fanfic writers even started dropping mini–stories in the replies, with tons of “This couple is so cute! Need more!” comments.

Furious, Sana fired off a reply: [Sweet my ass! The truth isn’t what you see. That dude’s a total sleazebag.]

Within seconds, replies piled in.

[Just say you’re jealous instead of being salty.]

[Seriously, they’re a perfect match. Who are you to trash talk?]

[Get a job instead of trolling online.]

Sana nearly popped a blood vessel. She went on a rampage, picking apart every angle of Brian’s “act,” even claiming he’d cheated, with proof, but no one bit.

Brian’s fans came at her harder, asking if she was just chasing clout, then reported her new account till it got banned..

That broke Sana. She stayed up all night creating new accounts, arguing with commenters. Every ban meant a new profile.

By the next day, when she dragged into work, both Jessica and Gabriela did a double–take at her haggard state.

“Sana, what did you do last night? Those dark circles are thicker than stage makeup,” Gabriela said, eyeing her up and down.

Sana flopped into her chair with a loud sigh. “Nothing,” she snapped through clenched teeth.

She’d just spent a night arguing online and got five or six alt accounts banned.

‘Those people are seriously deranged!‘ she thought. The memory still had her blood boiling.

Jessica watched Sana’s bristling demeanor and spoke gently. “You don’t look like ‘nothing happened. What’s going on? Maybe we can help,” she said earnestly, genuinely worried about her employee’s mental state.

“I said it’s fine. Drop it!” Sana barked, snatching her mug and stomping to the break room.

Jessica and Gabriela exchanged bewildered glances.

They wondered, ‘What the hell is happening?‘

Unbeknownst to Sana, someone else in the city seethed even more at the online flood of comments-“Brian’s eternal love for Jessica,” “They’re soulmates.”

In her apartment, Madeline nearly smashed her phone again…

The screen showed posts about Brian queuing for snacks like a lovesick teen.

Chapter 309

“Brian, you’d go this far for her?” Madeline choked on the reality.

Even at their closest, he’d never bought her so much as a coffee without hints and drama. She’d always had to play the martyr, drop desperate ees to get scraps.

But she believed his pity was the start of love.

Madeline had been dead set she’d replace Jessica as Brian’s wife.

Even if he gave her the same cold treatment he’d given Jessica, she didn’t care.

Marrying him meant escaping her class.

She thought, ‘Once I have that ring, what

sromantic love matter? Cold hard cash is the real prize!

But now, in the video, Brian was dressed in a designer suit yet queuing up like any regular guy just to buy Jessica’s favorite snack. Madeline finally sav that beyond status and money, she could’ve had Brian’s whole heart.

He wasn’t unfeeling or cold by nature. The problem was she wasn’t the one he’d chosen to care for.

‘But why Jessica?‘ Madeline seethed.

“What does she have that I don’t?” she snapped, staring at Brian’s image

on her phone.

still running after her, Brian? Do you love her so much you don’t care

She continued, “She divorced you, pushed you away, and left you. Why are you about your pride?”

Madeline’s eyes flared red with jealousy as she raged, but the man in the video stayed silent.

The clips and gushing comments drove her over the edge. She grabbed a mug and slammed it into Jessica’s photo on the wall.

Shattered pieces cut jagged white lines across the picture, and Madeline laughed harshly.

She roared, “It serves you right. That’s what happens when you mess with me, Jessica!”

The next second, she ripped the photo down, threw it to the floor, and stomped on it.

She said, “You just wait, Jessica. I’m not losing. I’ll grind you into the dirt.”

She thought, ‘I’ll be Brian’s wife. I’ll claim his heart. Jessica, now that you’ve walked away, don’t even think about coming back to challenge me.‘

At the office, Jessica let out an unexpected sneeze.

“Where’d that come from? You aren’t getting sick, are you?” Gabriela asked, eyeing her worriedly.

“I’m good, just a random tickle. Let’s get back to the new project,” Jessica said, shaking her head. She flipped open the file, ready to dive back in.

Seeing she looked okay, Gabriela let it go.

The two powered through finalizing Inkspire Studio’s next moves.

When they finished, Gabriela stretched with a groan. “Thank god that’s done. Oh, right, Jessi, I forgot to ask, has Brian been bugging you lately?”

With all the online hype, it was weird that Brian hadn’t caused real–life drama. Gabriela was almost buying the “coincidence” narrative.

“Same as always. He keeps dropping off meals and snacks and won’t take no for an answer. Why?” Jessica shrugged.

She’d nearly adjusted to Brian’s daily snack raids.

Chapter 309

She knew she shouldn’t, but she’d tried pushing him away. ‘What else can I do if he doesn’t quit?‘ Jessica thought with a sigh.

Gabriela gaped. “Still the same schtick? No new tricks? Is he actually changing his act?”

Jessica didn’t want to talk about it. “Who knows? Let’s move on.”

Gabriela nodded and fell quiet.

Just then, Brian–leaving a partner’s office–stopped on the sidewalk

at

the sight of a street artist sketching for spare change.
