Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) -
Chapter 495
Just like when Liya was young, when she and her mother came to the majestic and bold Richards Manor, what they got were only eyes of contempt and an indifferent treatment. Everyone despised them and treated them coldly.
That day, she entered Richards Manor once again, and her status was once again looked down upon by everyone.
The following breakfast, Hansen kept taking care of Jenna. He followed her gently and considerately. From time to time, he would also pick some food and whenever she frowned slightly, Hansen would immediately order his servants to take away the dishes she did not like and bring her the things she wanted.
Yet, he treated Liya very coldly. He didn't even look at her during the meal.
Every servant addressed Jenna as Madam, and they respected her from the bottom of their hearts. On the other hand, they treated her with unspeakable coldness and disgust.
Such treatment made her feel even more resentful, and she looked at Jenna with deep jealousy and anger from the bottom of her heart.
However, she didn't show it. She just sat there in a generous and calm manner.
She knew that on such an occasion, she could only make herself look more energetic. She couldn't lose her cool. Otherwise, she would even lose the courage to be there. After all, after she had married into that prestigious family in the future, such a situation would surely happen most of the time. That was so, unless she could turn the world upside down and somehow make her status higher than Jenna's. Nonetheless, for the time being, that was almost impossible.
Breakfast was good.
Yet everyone didn't eat much.
Everyone was thinking about their own worries.
Jenna didn't have much appetite either. She only ate a few mouthfuls of food. Hansen would pick her favorite food for her from time to time, but she didn't eat them as she felt disgusted. After the meal, Trevor and Marissa went upstairs first.
And Liya's purpose of the visit that day had come to an end.
After breakfast, Hansen took care of Jenna carefully and held her hand as they went back upstairs.
"Jenna, your complexion is very bad. Take a good rest at home and don't overthink." After Hansen sent Jenna upstairs, he settled her down softly, looked at her face, and spoke with distress. The corners of Jenna's mouth twitched as a response to him, and she looked at the trees outside the window expressionlessly.
Her husband took another woman home as his wife. So, how could she feel good? Was that a joke?
Moreover, Hansen wasn't Jenna. So, how could he know how she felt?
ust me, I will make sure that justice is serv d," Hansen said as he looked
"Jenn remember what I have said. You have face everything strongly. Jenna's cold and pained face. Although she did not say anything, he could still feel her pain and unhappiness. His eyes grew darker, and he said in detail, "Take good care of our son at home. I will come back early tonight. It's time. So, I'm going to leave." After urging her again, he left.
It wasn't until his footsteps disappeared in the corridor that Jenna stood up and walked to the balcony. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, she saw Hansen walking outside with Liya. Behind Hansen's handsome figure was Liya's slim figure. They walked towards the electric vehicle in single file.
Then, they got into the electric vehicle at the same time. She then saw Liya tugging on Hansen's arm and resting her head on his shoulder.
Then, the electric vehicle rumbled out.
A spurt of acid shot from Jenna's stomach to her throat. Jenna covered her lips with her hands, and everything in front of her eyes turned dark.
Everything seemed to have returned to the beginning. It was just like Aria's matters from many years ago. The feeling was too similar, except that she had a beautiful dream in between. She had woken up from the dream right then.
"Trevor, tell me, why is that? Why did you let Liya join our family? Did you become as muddled as your son?" Marissa could not bear it any longer. As soon as she entered the study, she quickly asked Trevor. Marissa only found out about Liya's visit when she woke up in the morning. Before that, Trevor never mentioned it to her, which was very abnormal.
She did not think that Trevor had turned old and become senile at that point.
Marissa couldn't tell how much benefit the Richards family would gain by marrying Liya into the family, but she could clearly tell how much harm it would bring.
That woman was the stepchild that Claude had brought back a few years ago. Forget her family status, even her family background was unclear. In those few years, her father used that as an excuse to come to Richards Manor to ask for money and had caused a commotion. At that time, even Vivian was very troubled by it. If Trevor were to repeat things again, wouldn't he be digging his own grave? Besides being pretty, that woman didn't seem to have the potential to become the daughter-in-law of a prestigious family.
The most important thing was that they had a legitimate daughter-in-law in Jenna. She was the first daughter-in-law of the Richards family that couldn't be divorced, and she was the one who was in charge of the family too. One didn't need to think much to know what kind of trauma it would bring Jenna by settling things like that. Would that really be beneficial to Richards Manor? Thinking of that, Marissa panicked.
"Your opinion isn't important." Trevor sat down in front of his desk. He then picked up a book and slowly read it.
"Trevor, I don't agree with your decision of marrying Liya into Green Jade Garden." Marissa was enraged by Trevor's indifference. She immediately spat out those words.
"Can you stop messing around foolishly?" Trevor was irritated by Marissa's nagging. He put down the book in his hands and shouted in a deep voice.
"You think I'm messing around foolishly?" Marissa became even angrier and loudly argued. "Then, don't regret it when Jenna leaves. Since her self-esteem is so strong, do you think she can stand this? Don't look down on her too much. Do you really think Liya's value will be greater than Jenna's? What's more, Jenna is the mother of my grandson. She is Jerry's biological mother."
Marissa was very distressed. That morning, she saw how pale Jenna's face was. Although she forced a smile, the painful look in her eyes still scared Marissa. Since she could see it, why couldn't Trevor?
"In the face of a disaster that concerns the whole family, we have no choice but to ignore all that. I believe that given Jenna's wisdom, she will come to understand this, and she will surely bear with it." Trevor stood up. He muttered to himself with eyes as deep as the sea.
"Crazy, you're all crazy." Marissa couldn't understand Trevor's words. She shook her head and shouted. She then left the room with a slam of
the door.
Jenna only stayed in the bedroom for a while. Then, she cheered herself up and went to work in the Ink Garden.
Despite the fact that she was at Richards Manor, there were still many family matters to attend to. Since she did not have to work at the company anymore, other than going to the Ink Garden to take care of Vivian everyday, she would always go to the Ink Garden's office to work for half a day.
Following Liya's and Hansen's scandal, the Richards Group seemed to have calmed down. Over the past few days, they had not even heard of any rumors that were unfavorable to them.
Not long after Jenna sat down, as she was looking at some financial statements in the office in the Ink Garden, she saw Marissa walking in with a smile and a gentle expression on her face. "Mom, you're here," Jenna stood up in a hurry and greeted her with a smile.
"Jenna, sit down," Marissa said amiably and kindly, and sat opposite Jenna with a face full of smiles.
"How about it? Is being the person- in- charge difficult?" Marissa asked with concern.
"It's okay, I guess. Don't worry, Mom. These matters are not difficult," Jenna replied simply, and smiled slightly.
"Oh, alright." Marissa nodded. "Since you're in charge, you have to take care of the family's matters. It must be tough." Marissa's expression became a little grave as she spoke. Suddenly, she sighed and said, "Jenna, we have really wronged you with what happened in the morning. I didn't expect that to happen either. I thought that your father-in-law would not agree to let Hansen marry Liya, but who knew that he would agree to it. I think that he must have had his difficulties, and hence did so. You're the first daughter-in-law of our Richards family, and we all know that. So, please don't do anything rash. Don't quarrel with Hansen either. According to my observation, Hansen doesn't love that woman at all. There must be a reason for this. Let's wait and see. In any case, Hansen still hasn't married her, right?" Marissa tried to ease Jenna's anxiety with an embarrassed expression.
Jenna understood Marissa's intentions. Actually, that matter really had nothing to do with Marissa. She understood that and immediately smiled. "Mom, you can rest assured. I know what to do." "Really? You really are a good girl." Although Marissa saw that Jenna had said those words with a pained expression, it could be seen that she didn't particularly resist the matter. It was only then that Marissa's heart could calm down a little, and she praised Jenna.
"Jenna, I'm afraid that it will be difficult for Grandma to recover from her illness. As the person-in-charge, you have to be prepared, so that you won't panic and mess things up then." Marissa suddenly thought of Vivian and gave Jenna a considerate reminder.
Jenna understood what she meant. In fact, she had been making preparations over the past few days.
Vivian was only eating porridge to survive everyday. If things went on like that, one could imagine what would happen in the future.
"Jenna, accompany me for a walk today, okay? I have some matters regarding Grandma to take care of too." As soon as Marissa said that, Jenna understood her intention. Marissa wanted to take her out for a walk to drive away her worries and to comfort her, and to apologize for what had happened that morning.
In any case, Marissa's intentions were good.
"Jenna, let's go. Work is something that you will not finish, no matter what. It's been a long time since the both of us had gone out together. Furthermore, we have to buy new sets of clothes for Jerry and for you too. As for me, since I haven't gone out for so long, I have something to buy too. Just consider it as accompanying me," Marissa said enthusiastically, and pulled on Jenna.
Jenna had no choice but to stand up. Also, just then, she heard that Marissa was going to settle Grandma's affairs. To be honest, she really didn't know anything about Grandma's funeral arrangements. After all, Marissa had seen major events before. So, Jenna still needed Marissa's advice on certain matters for the future.
Moreover, Marissa was obviously trying to win her over. As her daughter-in-law, she had to know what was good for her.
Thus, the in-laws walked out hand in hand intimately.
"Mom, I'll go and start the car." As soon as Jenna and Marissa got off the electric vehicle, Jenna was the first to say something.
"There's no need to. Jenna, we have to go to a lot of places today. Let the driver drive us. That way, we can stroll around slowly and enjoy ourselves." Marissa had already thought of that. So, she simply said that with a smile.
Jenna looked up and saw that the driver was already waiting at the gate with the car. So, she did not force the matter anymore.
Along the way, Marissa was very enthusiastic. As for Jenna, except for going along with her conversation and flattering her, she didn't say much more.
Marissa knew that Jenna was in a bad mood. So, she didn't force her to be happy either.
The funeral parlor was not in a very isolated place. In fact, it was in the center of the city.
As Jenna and Marissa just got down, they suddenly saw flashing lights shining at them. Before they could figure out what was going on, a large group of media reporters were already heading towards them.
