Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 271

"What's the matter?" Rayan asked without raising his head.

"Mr. Whalen, the young man has been standing by the gate for the entire afternoon, refusing to leave. He insists on bringing..." The housekeeper's voice faltered as he glanced at Jenna.

Jenna's head throbbed and she was in a state of flux.

Darkness had fallen and it was raining cats and dogs. Did Hansen still refuse to leave?

How long had he been standing there?

Her face turned ashen.

"All right, I'll go and have a look." Rayan nodded. The housekeeper then left.

Jenna was in a dilemma.

Rayan stared deep into her eyes.

"What's the matter? Do you want to see him?" he asked softly.

"What? No..." Jenna responded instinctively but her fingers began fidgeting.

"Are you sure?" Rayan asked again. His intense gaze fixed on her.

"Uh, uh." Jenna nodded mechanically as her eyes were fixed on the table.

"Well, don't worry. I'll ask him to go home." Rayan nodded.

"Rayan, please, don't provoke him. Send someone to bring him home," Jenna begged.

"Okay, I know what to do," Rayan reassured her and flashed her a smile.

Jenna had no appetite anymore and her gaze riveted upon the door.

Suddenly, her phone rang.

"Hello." After a long time, Jenna answered the call with a quivering voice.

"Miss Murphy, this is Haward. After standing guard for a few days, I finally discovered how the person got into the ward. There is a pipe beside the ward's window. That was how the person entered. Someone removed Trevor's tube again today," Haward reported with a lowered voice.

"What? Someone did what?" Jenna's heart pounded rapidly. Someone wanted Trevor dead, but who?

She had already agreed to leave Richards Manor and Hansen. Why would anyone still want to harm Trevor?

What exactly was going on? "Miss Murphy, do you want to call the police?" "No, don't provoke the enemy before we catch the culprit. I will increase your salary. Please guard the place these few days and notify Madam Wyld immediately if the tube is removed. Just ask her to insert the tube again," Jenna instructed.

"Sure." With that, Haward ended the call.

It was a near miss! Jenna steadied herself. Fortunately, she thought of sending her bodyguards to watch over Trevor in the hospital. Otherwise, who knew what would happen.

Obviously, someone didn't want Trevor to recover.

It was intentional murder!

The culprit should be brought to justice.

She had already left Hansen. Hence, it didn't seem to be Aria. She had no motives to murder Trevor.

Who else could it be?

Jenna was getting a headache and she could not wrap her head around the matter.

Suddenly, she thought of Hansen still standing outside.

He was still fooling around and getting himself drunk when his father was in danger.

Didn't he know?

The thought crossed her mind and she ran outside.

The cold air hit her.

So cold!

She went back into the house to get an umbrella.

It was so cold, yet he remained outside for the entire afternoon.

How could he be so stubborn!

Jenna never thought that he would be so headstrong!

"Let me drive my point across. I won't leave unless Jenna comes home with me today." Hansen stood upright with his back straight although his legs were already stiff from the cold. He was drenched in rain but he remained stubborn as a mule and refused to budge. Rain trickled down from his hair and his eyes were evident with determination.

Rayan walked over, holding an umbrella in his hand. His gaze was sharp and cold as it remained riveted upon Hansen.

The gate was illuminated by the lamps.

There was only a gate between them but it felt as if they were from two different worlds.

His expression darkened as he stared at Hansen who refused to leave no matter what.

Did he drink? Rayan wondered.

Hansen seemed tipsy but he was not very drunk.

Rayan could see the fierce determination in his eyes.

Hansen was not making a scene because he was drunk; he knew what he was doing.

Rayan's heart quivered. He was indeed startled and for some inexplicable reason, he felt guilty.

Hansen was a successful businessman in A city. He had money and power. He was capable, cunning and rational. Rayan heard of him before he came to A City.
