Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen)

Chapter 255

"Come on, what do you wish to talk about?" Aria asked as she looked at Jenna victoriously. She was grinning from ear to ear.

"Aria, I did not push you down and you know that clearly. Do you really think that it's okay for you to lie brazenly like this?" Jenna brushed away her fringe on her forehead confidently as she stared at Aria coldly with a menacing gaze.

Panic flashed through Aria's bright eyes as she felt Jenna's stare.

"It seems that you are really here to make trouble today. Let me tell you, it's a fact that you caused me to be bedridden in this hospital right now and you'll definitely be convicted for this," Aria scoffed deviously and continued with viciousness evident on her face, "I am not afraid that you will harm me under broad daylight now anyway."

"I harm you?" Jenna sneered. "Do you not know who you are? Could I possibly harm you even if I wished to? You've crossed the line for wanting me to confess my guilt and slandering me for no reason. Well, if there is going to be a lawsuit, I'm willing to fight against you until the end. I'm afraid that you'll only bring more trouble for yourself in exchange for nothing. Well, I' m a gossip-ridden divorced woman with a ruined family anyway. I don't mind wasting my time on you."

Jenna retorted boldly with an expressionless face.

"What are you trying to say?" Aria's face turned pale as she asked in panic.

"Nothing much, I came to negotiate with you today," Jenna said calmly and composedly. "If you still have some conscience remaining, I would comply with your wishes. I'll let this go and you could marry Hansen happily. However, if you insist on doing the wrong thing, I will go against you till the very end. When things progress horribly, you'll get nothing in return."

Aria's gaze flickered as she thought deeply in her heart. Although Jenna's expression was very calm, her face was pale as snow; Aria could still catch the pain in her eyes.

It seemed that her father's pressure was taking an obvious effect. Otherwise, Jenna would not take the initiative to come and talk to her. If that was the case, Jenna obviously came just to negotiate for more benefits in return.

Aria thought that as long as she could marry Hansen, she would gladly listen to Jenna's negotiation terms.

"Come on, what do you want to negotiate about? I'll be listening closely. If I'm in a good mood, maybe I will show compassion and even cooperate with you." Aria raised her brows and smiled triumphantly.

Jenna's lips turned pale as she bit them tightly. Aria's arrogant face made her feel her heart tugging painfully. However, as images of Hansen's face and his determination during his conversation with Marissa flashed before her eyes, she clenched her fists tightly.

"The reason why you're doing everything you could to settle me off is because you're insecure by the fact that Hansen loves me and not you. Moreover, you're afraid that you may not be able to be Richards family's young madam," Jenna said and smiled mockingly.

"B*tch, that's so arrogant of you. You were the one who manipulated Hansen and made him alienate me. If he doesn't love me, would he even make me pregnant?" Aria flushed with anger at Jenna's words and she retorted lividly.

However, Jenna didn’ t look at her. She continued mockingly, "You are the only one who knows exactly how you got pregnant. It's normal for a man who has been drugged to do something like this. Only a woman whom nobody likes would use a child's birth to coerce a man into marrying her. You? The daughter of a prestigious family? Stop being a joke."

"You..." Aria pointed her finger at Jenna as she glared at her. With her cheeks flushed, she was so furious that her breathing became erratic.

"Don't worry, since you want to be the Richards family's young madam so much, I won't really bother to fight with you and I'll gladly give you the status. However, the premise is that you must agree to my terms. This was the actual reason why I came to negotiate with you today." Seeing Aria fuming because of her words, Jenna changed the topic abruptly and proceeded to get to the main point.

When Aria heard that Jenna was about to give her the status of Richards family's young madam, her eyes brightened up in surprise and her anger lessened immediately. Her eyes flickered as she said energetically, "What? Now that Hansen abandoned you, you wish to negotiate with me to gain compensation for your loss, right? Let me tell you, I'm not that stupid. Now that Hansen would marry me real soon, is there a need for me to negotiate with you?"

Jenna seemed to have expected this coming from her. She smiled confidently and said lightly, "Since you have such confidence, why would you need to use a child to threaten Hansen? Why use your father's authority to threaten the Richards family? Plus, I believe you know clearly who Hansen actually likes. Besides, you should be clear about Hansen's character. As long as I am waiting for him here, he would never ever marry you. Even if it meant fighting with your family till the end, he would never change his mind. If you can't even realize this, it's pathetic of you and it's impossible to keep our conversation going."

Right after saying this, Jenna sneered and turned around to leave the place.

"Wait." Aria stopped her in time.

She pondered with her face in a mix of expressions. In fact, what Jenna said was exactly what she had been concerned about. If Jenna insisted on sticking together with Hansen, she might not be

able to get Hansen to love her in her entire lifetime and Hansen would never compromise to marry her as well.

With the thought of Hansen fighting against her father, chills ran down her spine.

"Then tell me, what do you want?" After a while, she finally spoke seriously.

"It's simple, leave Grandma and Minnie alone, and stop targeting Richards Group. I don't want to see Richards Group suffering from any loss, including the Camphor Tree Villa," Jenna resolutely said.

"Oh, it seems that you share a really good bond with the Richards family. That's so considerate of you to think about the wellbeing of the Richards family." Aria laughed suddenly and sighed mockingly.

Jenna didn't want to waste time talking nonsense with her. She shut her eyes tightly and asked in a deep voice, "So? Can you do it?"

"Of course, it's very simple. However, what made you think that it's a must for me to do this? And what's the reason behind it? Or should I say, what made you think that you have the right to ask me to do so? After all, there's no such thing as a free lunch," Aria raised her eyebrows and asked back.

"Of course there is." Jenna knew Aria's personality well. Without the terms and benefits that she was satisfied with, she would never comply easily. Jenna said solemnly, "If you could do this, I guarantee that Hansen marries you and you'll become Richards family's young madam with no trouble. What do you think? Are these conditions not good enough?"

"You can guarantee?" Aria looked at her with a skeptical look on her face. Would this woman be willing to give up Hansen and hand over the identity of Richards family's young madam just like that?

"Of course. Since I came to negotiate with you, I would definitely have this level of confidence. When the time comes, I will do as you wish and disappear from Hansen's side forever. I won't be a bother to both of you ever again, and I'll make him give up on me completely and not love me anymore." Jenna tried to remain calm as she spoke. The slight tremor in her voice was evident as she finished her sentence. She tried hard to suppress the excruciating pain deep inside her by clenching her fists tightly and sinking her nails into the flesh of her palms.

Her face was so pale that not a hint of color was found and her head began throbbing painfully. She felt like losing her consciousness anytime soon, she nearly stumbled and fell.

Aria stared at Jenna as she tried to identify whether or not she meant what she said.

As she saw Jenna's expression, she felt assured. However, she still said, "I can promise you but I have one more request. That is, the inheritance rights of Richards Manor must be transferred to be under my name. If you can do this, I will immediately agree to the deal."

Aria said unwaveringly as she stared at Jenna like an eagle and eyeballed her.

What a greedy woman.

Jenna sneered internally. She did not want the inheritance right of Richards Manor since the start. Since she wanted to leave, she'll definitely leave without taking anything with her; that was why it was impossible that she would insist on holding onto it. Originally, she planned to return it to Hansen but now that Aria had asked for it, she'll just give it to Aria. Only if Richards Manor is safe, can Richards Group be safe as well. As long as everything could be taken care of, nothing else mattered.

"Okay, I'll give it to you. On the day of your marriage with Hansen, I will entrust a lawyer to send you the transfer letter," Jenna clenched her jaw and said straightforwardly.

"Great, since you can give such a prompt answer, I'll be clear-cut with you as well. If you are short of money, I can make up for you, provided that you no longer pester Hansen," Aria's eyes brightened up as she said lavishly on purpose.

"Did you actually think I would want your money?" Jenna asked with a sneer. "Did you think that everyone is like Minnie?"

"Good, it's great that you have a backbone." Aria smiled victoriously and gave Jenna a thumbs- up. "I hope that you stick to your words. I want to hear good news from you as soon as possible as I don't have much patience."

"Don't worry, it will be fast. However, it is not possible to decide on the date of marriage within three days as Hansen could be very stubborn. I am afraid it will take longer than expected but I will try to give you good news within ten days. You must cooperate with me on this point. Otherwise, there is nothing I can do," Jenna said with a clear mind.

Aria lowered her head and considered for a moment. Soon, she replied resolutely, "Sure, it's decided then."

As soon as these words were spoken, Aria was delighted that everything was assured to succeed for her.

"Remember what you promised me. If anything happens to anyone in Richards Group or Richards Manor, I will immediately tell Hansen about our conversation today. I have already recorded everything and I will let everyone know about what happened three years ago as well. Don't think that I'm oblivious because I will figure out everything someday. It's best if we all are able to live in peace," Jenna warned her sternly.

"Rest assured. If I marry Hansen, I am part of the Richards family as well. Of course, I would hope for the Richards family to be peaceful. Why would there be any woman who's stupid enough to be

willing to let problems happen in their own household?" Aria replied affirmatively.

Jenna believed her words. After Aria became Mrs. Richards, she would be a part of that family. There was really no need for her to harm her own family, not to mention that she was pregnant with a baby as well.

Jenna's heart was finally at ease!

Just as she decided to take her leave...
