Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen)

Chapter 279

"Uncle Richards, you have to believe me. I never had any ulterior motives. Besides, Hansen and I have gotten a divorce. I would never disgrace the family again. Soon, I will leave A City forever and you don't need to be concerned about me anymore. Please wake up soon so that I can leave in peace. I admit that I joined Richards Group for my father's sake but you can't blame me for that. He is my beloved dad and it was a miserable death. I cannot just sit back and do nothing," Jenna said in exasperation as tears streamed down her cheeks.

Three years ago when she regained consciousness unexpectedly, she saw that Trevor had fainted in the room. She was completely startled as many people dashed into the room.

However, the day before he fainted, Jenna met him at Green Jade Garden. He was practicing martial arts with his subordinates. She greeted him tentatively upon seeing him.

To her surprise, Trevor glanced in her direction and said lightly, "Jenna, after breakfast tomorrow, meet me in my study on the third floor."

Jenna was caught off guard as Trevor had always disregarded her ever since she married Hansen. It was the first time he spoke to her. Jenna was thrilled.

She agreed immediately. She caught a glimpse of the concern in his eyes. For the first time since she married Hansen, he seemed to trust her from the bottom of his heart. Jenna was dumbfounded.

Trevor had never looked at her in this manner. Did he trust her? It seemed impossible.

Nevertheless, she truly felt his trust in her that day. It made her on cloud nine.

To her dismay, before she could see him the next day, something dreadful happened and she was forced to escape to another country.

Therefore, Jenna always felt that she owed him. She wanted to repay him so that she could finally leave in peace. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

After a while, Jenna wiped away her tears and touched her lower abdomen. She stood up, called Nelson and Haward, and said with utmost sincerity, "Nelson, Haward, thank you for taking care of Trevor all this while. I still need your help and I will increase your salary. I won't be able to come over for the next few days but if anything happens, please call me. Please ensure his safety. Don't let anyone lay a finger on him."

Nelson and Haward had worked in Richards Manor for a while and they understood the truth. They were fully aware of Jenna's predicament. They were truly touched by her actions. Really, the media couldn't be trusted. They respected Jenna from the bottom of their hearts.

"Don't worry, Miss Murphy. We will do our best." The two of them agreed without hesitation.

Jenna heaved a sigh of relief and left.

"Jenna, where are you? Hurry back to Richards Manor." As soon as Jenna walked out of the ward, her phone rang. It was Sabrina and she seemed to be on pins and needles.

Jenna's heart sank and she asked quickly, "Sabrina, what's the matter?"

"Jenna, I think someone wants to hurt Grandma. I'm so frightened," she said in a quivering voice.

"Really?" Jenna was taken aback and inquired, "How did you know?"

"Jenna, I have been working at Ink Garden these few days. Last night, I was busy preparing the events for the New Year's banquet. When I left the office room, I caught a glimpse of a figure leaving Grandma's bedroom. It was a man! I was so shocked and before I could demand who he was, he was gone. It was terrifying!" Sabrina struggled to control her quivering.

A cold fear clutched at Jenna's throat and she asked, "Where was Meroy?"

"Meroy was not there at the time, neither were the servants. Only Grandma and I were in the building. Besides, I returned suddenly to do some work. The person probably didn't expect me to be there," Sabrina explained. Her jaw was trembling in fear, making it hard for her to speak.

"Where was Meroy then? She seldom leaves Grandma alone." Jenna knew that it was rare to see a man entering Ink Garden, let alone Vivian's room. Something was definitely amiss and she thought of Meroy.

"As soon as that man left, Meroy returned. I asked her where she had been. It turned out she had gone to Emerald Garden to deliver something to Uncle Richards under Grandma's instruction. Meroy panicked and dashed into the room to check on Grandma but luckily, she was all right. She was just fast asleep," Sabrina explained.

Claude? Was he back?

Jenna pondered upon the matter. Claude had been busy managing an investment project in Africa for the past two years. It was said to be very successful and he seldom came back. Did he return because it was near New Year's Eve?

The intruder obviously had a plan, seeing that he entered the room when nobody else was around. His motives remained unknown but at least his goal didn't seem to be murdering Vivian for the time being. At least, Vivian was not hurt. Jenna heaved a sigh of relief and comforted Sabrina, "Don't worry, Sabrina. It was probably a thief. It's near New Year Eve and the thief might be short on money. This has happened before. Don't worry, Grandma will be fine."

Sabrina patted her chest and said, "I hope so. After all, it's almost New Year Eve. The Richards Manor looks very grand after the decorations. No wonder it attracted thieves."

"Where is Norton? Aren't you with him?" Jenna questioned.

"Uncle Richards called him over once he returned. I haven't seen him for the past few days. It seemed that he was reprimanded by Uncle Richards and is currently receiving his punishment," Sabrina replied woefully.

It seemed that Claude had returned upon receiving the news. Great, he would now be able to keep an eye on Norton so that he wouldn't repeat his mistakes. Jenna thought silently to herself.

"Jenna, what happened to you and Hansen? Today, I saw Madam Marissa fuming mad when she returned. According to Aunt Ella, she received a call this morning, saying that Hansen has fallen ill. His condition seems to be severe and he has been admitted to the hospital," Sabrina said anxiously.

Hansen had fallen ill? Jenna's heart skipped a beat instantly.

"Is he sick? What happened?" Jenna held the phone tightly but she put on an air of indifference.

"Jenna, I heard that he is very ill. He has a high fever and he keeps talking gibberish in his sleep." Sabrina sighed.

Jenna's face turned ashen and she leaned against the wall.

"Jenna, what happened to you and Hansen? Madam Marissa is busy preparing for Hansen's wedding with Aria. Do you know how flustered I am? You and Hansen are madly in love. You guys are a perfect couple. Why did things turn out in this manner? I'm so disappointed in the men of the Richards family." Sabrina seemed to be in distress.

Tears welled up in Jenna's eyes. She wanted to comfort Sabrina but she suddenly thought of Norton. She felt bad for not revealing Norton's true intentions to Sabrina. It was irresponsible of her. Sabrina trusted her so much but she betrayed her trust and allowed Norton to approach her despite knowing that he had some ulterior motives. It was unfair towards Sabrina.

However, what could she say? Sabrina was Norton's fiancee and she liked him. She couldn't ruin their relationship.

Fortunately, she had already planned to forgive Norton.

"Sabrina, there are many things that I can't explain for the time being. Just remember to be brave and face all the obstacles in life with a positive mindset. I still cannot return to Richards Manor these few days. Hence, I will need your help with the New Year's banquet. I will attend the banquet, don't worry. Thank you very much," Jenna said in exasperation as she leaned against the wall.

"What's the matter with you? Do you know who this patient is? That's your boss. Even your director is afraid of him. How dare you show no respect towards him? It's just a heat pack. What's taking you so long? Do you want to lose your job?" Someone yelled in the corridor a floor below. It was loud and booming.

Jenna's heart sank. The shriek sent a chill down her spine and she stared blankly ahead.

It was Aria's voice. She could recognize it anywhere.

Why did she come to this hospital? Shouldn't she be at the Maternal and Child Health Hospital?

"Sabrina, take care. I need to handle some matters over here," Jenna said in a low voice and ended the call as she steadied herself against the wall.

"I'm sorry, Miss McAdams, we really don't have any heat packs and we can't get one in such a short amount of time," the nurse responded in panic.

"How much money can a heat pack cost? Can't you just buy one?" Minnie demanded. "Do you know the identity of the patient? He is your boss. The boss of this hospital. You can't even provide something as simple as this. It seems that you don't want your job anymore."

Minnie snickered. She kept reprimanding and threatening the nurse, making her turn pale with fright.

"Sure, sure. I'll call the director right away," the nurse said in a quivering voice.

"Shame on you. Ms. Mcadams, let's go and have lunch downstairs." Minnie snorted. However, she treated Aria with respect.

"Take care of Mr. Richards while we have our lunch. We will be back soon," Aria said arrogantly.

"No problem," the nurse promised. Beads of sweat collected on her forehead. Silence fell once Aria and Minnie left.

Hansen was sick. Was he severely ill?
