"Jenna, come here." Hansen stared at Jenna and extended his hand to her. His expression grew sorrowful as he asked, "Do you know the consequences of your actions? Do you know the negative outcomes associated? Do you know you are letting me down?"
His eyes were bloodshot and there were dark circles under his eyes. He looked haggard. His wrinkled suit gave him a disheveled appearance.
He stretched out his hand to her again. His eyes were fixed on Jenna, eagerly waiting for her response.
Jenna had a soft spot for him. She almost forgot her goal and dashed towards him. However, she stopped herself.
No, she couldn't go.
She could not let her efforts go down the drain.
"Hansen, I don't think there will be any negative consequences." She smiled at him and said lightly, "You can marry Aria and I can be with Rayan. There's nothing wrong with it. We got divorced a long time ago. What we are doing is not against the law. I think there
is nothing shameful about this. What do you think?" "Jenna, how can you engage in an affair with a brazen assurance? Did you really say that? Are you still the woman I love? Why? Tell me! Tell me the reason. Convince me," Hansen bellowed as a wave of fury crashed through him.
He felt dejected.
He could not believe that this was true.
"Hansen, it's not the first day we are dating. You guys have gotten a divorce. There's nothing wrong with me being her boyfriend. Please respect our decision." Rayan placed his hand on Jenna's waist. The smile of pleasure never left his face.
Hansen stared at his hand which was placed on Jenna's waist and his eyes blazed murderously.
Jenna belonged to him and only him. He used to be proud of that. However, she currently belonged to another man. He could not accept it.
He was confident that she would belong to him forever. He had always gotten what he wanted. He would allow no exceptions.
"Jenna, I beg you, please come back to me. You know that I won't marry Aria. I just want
you and I will only marry you. It doesn't matter if I lose everything else," he begged. His expression was a fifty-fifty mixture of pain and anger.
Jenna clenched her fist and her heart ached so much but she assumed an air of indifference and responded, "Hansen, why are you so annoying? Aria already has your child. If you don't marry her, who would you marry? Don't pester me anymore. I had enough of you. Do you want me to be your mistress? Let me be frank with you, that's just wishful thinking. Rayan is loyal to me and treats me well. I am happy being his girlfriend, anyone can see that. Please know your place and keep your distance from me in the future."
She drove her point home!
However, Hansen did not give up. He lost his cool and was yelling hysterically, begging for forgiveness.
"No, Jenna, I only want you. I admit that I have not treated you well in the past. I'm sorry, please forgive me. I will change in the future. Trust me, I will be good to you in the future. I will repay you with everything I have."
Jenna burst out laughing.
"Hansen, you are too naTve. Everything had gone wrong since the beginning. How could
we have a future together? There's no turning back. Just marry Aria and we can go our separate ways. It's best for both of us."
Her expression was unreadable. The hostility in her voice and expression was unnerving.
Hansen's heart sank and his face turned ashen. There were beads of sweat on his forehead. He stared at Jenna in disbelief. "Jenna, are you really so heartless?"
She turned her head so that he would not see the tears burning her eyes. She remained silent.
"No, Jenna. You are not a heartless person. I know you. You would never treat me like this. Have you forgotten the times we spent together? I promised you that I would marry you a year later. Didn't you agree? Think about Grandma. She has allowed you to inherit the Richards Group and be part of the family. You are already mine. How could we go our separate ways? We were destined to be together." Hansen's nerves were frayed and great beads of perspiration trickled down his forehead.
Jenna turned around and sniffed quietly as tears threatened to spill from her eyes. She bit her lips to prevent them from rolling down her cheeks.
"Hansen, I know that Grandma is very kind to
