Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen)
Chapter 408

Hannah looked at her seriously. Her eyes were filled with joy as she finally let her guard down and all her worries were washed away. Their friendship meant the world to Hannah. Hannah had to admit it, Jenna was much braver and dedicated when it came to love.

When she fell in love with Hansen, she loved without any restraint. However, when she decided to give up, she ran away from him as far as she could. No matter how hard he pursued her again, she was indifferent towards him. She stuck to her decisions, no matter what.

Compared to Jenna, Hannah who saw herself as a master of love had to admit, she suffered a lot because of her concerns and hesitations.

Thinking about this, Hannah let out a deep sigh.

"However, you should still thank me. If it weren't for me, how could you get to know such an excellent man like Rayan?" Jenna smiled.

Hannah blushed. She held Jenna's hand and said with a serious tone, "I'm really glad you think that way. In fact, I've been feeling uneasy these days. We've been best friends growing up and I don't wish for us to grow distant just because of some misunderstanding. You have no idea how happy I was for you when I saw you walking down the aisle with Hansen. Now that we've cleared things up between us, we're stil going to be best friends."

"Of course," Jenna quickly replied with excitement. There are seven billion people in the world, but Hannah was the only friend who meant the world to her. They had always been truthful to each other. Such an understanding was rare to have. Jenna's eyes welled up with tears as she took Hannah's hand and said affectionately, "Hannah, we're going to be best friends for life. If everything works out, I would like our children to marry each other."

"Nothing would make me happier." Hannah squealed with delight as her eyes welled up with tears.

They held each other's hands tightly.

"Come on, let's have a toast. To our never-ending friendship." Their glasses clinked and made a crisp sound.

They smiled at each other.

Then, they heard the sound of a pair of high heels approaching them. It was faint and delicate, but quick and impatient as if the owner of the heels held a grudge against the floor. It was ruthless, precise, and fast.

The sound smashed into Jenna's eardrums as if the heels were stepping on her heart, which made her feel uncomfortable and disturbed.

She furrowed her brows as she turned towards the direction of the sound.

It was a woman with wavy hair and delicate features. Her evening gown made her look beautiful and charming.

She was walking towards them with a smile on her face.

Jenna and Hannah looked at each other.

It was a modest smile, but Jenna could feel an inexplicable unease from her expression. The atmosphere was cloaked with a sense of restlessness and danger.

"Hannah, Mrs. Richards, glad that I could meet you here. I've come to propose a toast." Zoella spoke courteously with a smile hanging on her face as she walked towards them.

Who was this woman?

Jenna didn't know who she was. So, she looked at Hannah. She thought maybe Hannah would have the answer since she was the head of the cafeteria and had met many people. Hannah let out a laugh, stood up holding her glass, and said in a carefree manner, "Miss Yates, you're here. I've heard all about the extraordinary woman president of the Sky Sword Group."

Jenna understood as soon as Hannah introduced Zoella's title purposefully. "So this is the head of the Sky Sword Group." She thought.

She was a little surprised. It seemed that A City was really a place full of hidden talents. Even the women were more capable, one after another.

Even though Sky Sword Group and Jones Group had merged, their power was still far less than the Richards family at the moment. However, they cannot be underestimated.

With a clink, Hannah and Zoella had already finished the wine in their glasses.

"Here, Mrs. Richards." Zoella picked up a wine glass from the table and poured Hannah and herself another glass. Then, she handed a glass to Jenna and said with admiration, "Mrs. Richards, you are indeed as beautiful and as virtuous as people say. You're so much more beautiful in person than you are on the television. I've heard a lot about you. I also hope that the great and powerful Richards Group would show some mercy towards small companies like us. Cheers."

She clinked her glass against Jenna's and gulped all the wine down.

"This woman could really drink!" Jenna thought. She drank both glasses of wine without even blinking. However, on such an occasion, she should have already drank far more than just these two glasses, yet she looked calm and confident still.

"I've long heard that Miss Yates is straightforward and capable. Now that I've seen it for myself, I'm impressed." Jenna smiled politely and downed hers too.

She was never good at drinking. So, she felt a little dizzy after downing a whole glass of wine. What's more, she had just finished one with Hannah.

"Mrs. Richards, I heard that you went back to work at Richards Group. What good news! It looks like Richards Group is heading towards an even brighter future. Do look after us, will you, Ms. Murphy?" Zoella filled up their glasses once more.

Jenna's head was a little dizzy, but it would be rude of her to refuse such a sincere toast.

However, if she drank it, she was afraid that she would not be able to hold on and things would go bad if Hansen came looking for her.

She looked at her glass and frowned slightly. This won't be easy.

Just then, Hannah took her glass, smiled, and said, "Miss Yates, Ms. Murphy is feeling a little uncomfortable today. Please, allow me."

Hannah downed the wine, showed Zoella the empty glass, and taunted her. "Are you satisfied, Miss Yates?"

She was obviously trying to get Zoella to leave, indicating that she was not welcomed. It would be indiscreet for her to continue.

Zoella, of course, understood what Hannah meant. She immediately smiled and said, "You can really drink, Miss Adames. We should meet up for a drink some other day."

"Of course. You're welcome to come to my cafeteria anytime." Hannah answered politely. She would never say no to whoever was willing to spend their money in her cafeteria.

Zoella let out a faint smile.

"I'm sorry for disturbing you guys. I'll take my leave."

She left gracefully.

"She's not someone you'd want to mess with," Hannah muttered as she watched Zoella strode off calmly and confidently.

"How could you tell?" Jenna asked anxiously as she recovered from the situation.

"Intuition." Hannah narrowed her eyes. "I've seen countless people. I know I'm right. There's

something devilish about her."

When Jenna heard this, she couldn't help but to burst into laughter. "Didn't you say that about men? I didn't know you had a thing for women too."

"Trust me. I'm a good judge of character. I have to hand it to her. She was fearless facing you. With such a small company, she still had the confidence to propose a toast to you," Hannah said worriedly. "Was it a threat?" Jenna's heart skipped a beat. Alas, she thought Zoella was showing respect to both of them!

"You know what, let's just forget it. Such a wonderful banquet, yet we got disturbed by this woman. How disappointing. Come on, we're not done chatting." Hannah threw Zoella at the back of her head. She suddenly thought of something and asked in a low and mysterious voice, "Do you know if Madam Lilian will be coming tonight?"

"Madam Lilian?" Jenna thought for a while and said, "The famous Madam Lilian Garver?"

"Yes, that's her." Hannah clapped her hands and said softly, "She had other matters to attend to today, but due to her relationship with Mr. Hawk, she decided to come anyway. It won't be for long though, maybe for two or three hours."

"I see." Jenna said faintly, then asked curiously, "What about it? Are you interested even in old ladies now?"

Jenna stared at Hannah. In the past, she was only interested in men, but how she started showing concern towards older women. The power of love, as strange as it seems, can change a person in an instant. "You don't know about this, do you? Let me tell you, it's rare for Mr. Hawk to be able to invite Madam Lilian over. Such a character could only be seen over the television and now you get a chance to meet her in person," Hannah said excitedly.

"I didn't expect you to still pursue a celebrity at this age." Jenna gave her a side-eye with a slight disdain in her tone.

"I never pursued celebrities, but for a woman to be able to achieve such powerful political status, it's a feat. I admire her. What's wrong with that?" Hannah exclaimed.

"You're being childish." Jenna let out a sigh and put her arms on the white round table and looked Hannah in the eyes. "So, what does this have to do with us? What's there for us to be excited about? Have you been living under a rock?"

Hannah didn't know how to refute and her excitement washed away. Not only was she not able to fight back, but she also became more sharp-tongued ever since she remarried. That's a new side of Jenna she hadn't seen.
