Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 262

"Can't be rushed?" Aria laughed. "Jenna, I have gone for an examination today and the doctor said everything is fine with the fetus. I can't wait anymore. I've already given you guys enough time to think about the matter. My patience is wearing thin. If you guys don't tell me the date of the marriage by the deadline, I will wait no longer."

"What on earth are you scheming?" Jenna's heart skipped a beat. She leveled a glare and demanded. At that moment, she recalled what happened in Trevor's ward and her blood ran cold.

"What do you think? Jenna, let me tell you, I must marry Hansen, I must become Mrs. Richard. You better be on the lookout, because anything can happen." Aria hung up the phone after saying this.

What she said made Jenna's hairs stand on end. The blood drained from her face and goosebumps covered her arms. She slumped onto the ground as she was left feeling drained and helpless.

What to do?

What should she do?

Jenna placed her hands on her abdomen and tears coursed down her cheeks.

If she left Hansen, her child would not have a dad. If she didn't leave Hansen, the Richards Group would be in financial trouble. What about Vivian and Trevor? What could she do?

She was still in a daze upon entering Green Jade Garden.

It was apparent that she was in distress as she stared at the ground.

She heard someone sobbing in the living room.

Although she was in a bad mood, she knew at once that it was Marissa.

Marissa was such a proud person. What would make her cry? There was only one possible explanation. She was crying due to Richards Group's fate.

Jenna recalled the day Trevor fainted. Although Marissa was flustered and bellowed at her, she didn't shed a tear.

The sound of Marissa crying made Jenna's heart sink.

Jenna paused for a moment before she spun around and ran away.

She hurried to the parking lot and got into her car.

The car pulled off and sped up the road, heading towards Richards Group.

She hadn't seen Hansen for a few days. He should be back from a business trip to Capital City by this moment.

At this instant, she really wanted to see him.

No matter what, she wanted to see him first.

It was late at night but Richards Groups was brilliant with lights shining through its lofty windows. The atmosphere was tense.

Upon arriving at the eighty-eighth floor, the corridor was empty and there was no one in sight.

She got out of the elevator and headed towards Hansen's office but it was empty. She turned around to go back to the elevator but she caught a glimpse of her office in the past. Nothing had changed.

Jenna couldn't help but sigh as she reminisced about the past. She stood motionless for a while before she pushed the door open.

Everything was the same as before. It was clean and tidy just like how it was when she worked here in the past.

A thousand thoughts and memories shuffled through her brain like a blackjack deck. All sorts of emotions — sorrow, happiness, despair, and so on, coursed through her veins.

After staying for a while, she headed towards the conference room below.

The lights were still on and it was the end of the financial year. There must be important issues to discuss. Otherwise, nobody would still be here working late at night. Everyone would be anticipating the holidays ahead.

"Ridiculous. I don't believe Earl can do as he wishes and distort the truth. A city doesn't belong to him. How can he do whatever he wants? The land was bought legally a few years ago. It's stated clearly in the contract. What is the law doing? It's so obvious that it's their fault, not ours. What does it have to do with us?" As she was approaching the door of the conference room, she heard Hansen raising his voice.

Jenna came to a halt and remained silent.

The door of the conference room was not closed tightly and she could hear what they were discussing.

"But Mr. Richards, they have already made an announcement to confirm that it is true. Once the document is approved by the superiors, nothing can be done anymore. Although the cost of this villa was not high, its current value is beyond our estimation. We cannot lose it. It is part of our plan for the future," Nathan said, his voice quivering.

"Yes, Mr. Richards. The government has started to investigate some of our buildings in A city and many of our projects have been rejected. Aside from that, they have suspended some of our business. How is that possible? Someone must be scheming all of this behind the scene. Mr. Richards, we must take this matter seriously and get to the root of the problem, or the consequences will be unimaginable," Roy added anxiously.

"Mr. Richards, according to some parties, Earl is the person behind this and he is obviously framing us."

"Mr. Richards, you must know when to admit defeat."

Everyone started commenting.

Jenna's blood ran cold and she felt as if she would suffocate. She could barely move and remained rooted to the spot. She felt that she was the cause of this tragedy. Richards Group would not tolerate her presence. She couldn't stay here any longer.

Panting heavily, she leaned against the wall as she retreated slowly.

She could still hear Hansen bellowing.
