"Hansen, are you a three- year- old? Please don't be so naive, all right? How can you still be so unrealistic even at this moment? Don't make a fool of yourself." Jenna sneered.
Was he still the capable and cunning man she once knew? Why did he become so childish?
How could he still have the time to be here, begging for her to go home with him? Didn't he know the Richards Group's current situation?
"Open the gate, open the gate for me," Hansen insisted. He knew that it was impossible to convince her but he did not wish to give up. Seeing her standing just a few steps away, he became anxious and began pushing against the gate with all his might.
Rayan stood silently by Jenna's side. His gaze fixed upon her.
"Please go. It's impossible between us." Tears welled up in her eyes. She could not bear to see the scene and her heart went out to him. In the end, she turned around and refused to look at him.
A gust of wind almost swept away the umbrella in her hand. Her frail body was struggling to stand, almost carried away by the wind.
"No, I won't leave." Hansen wanted to rush to her side and hug her tightly but the gate hindered him. He was so flustered that he bellowed, "Jenna, I know that you love me. You can't forget about me. It's impossible. We were still madly in love a few days ago. You are just putting on an act to force me to give up and marry Aria for the sake of Richards Group, am I right? Let me be frank with you. I won't admit defeat easily. I would rather lose everything than you."
"Don't be so stubborn, please!" Jenna was torn. Mixed feelings welled up inside her as she witnessed Hansen's stubbornness. Somehow, she was thrilled because he guessed what was on her mind and believed her. However, her mind was set to protect him and the Richards Group. She did not wish to ruin his future.
God, it was freezing cold!
She was trembling with cold and she felt lightheaded.
The cold wind swept over her, making her body numb from the cold. Her legs were losing strength as well. She trembled violently and her umbrella was about to be blown away by the wind.
The blood had drained from her face.
Rayan was shocked to see her in this state and was about to draw closer to support her.
"Don't you dare go closer to her. She belongs to me." Hansen snarled. Realizing that something was amiss, Hansen began climbing the gate, ignoring the sharp wires poking out. He was determined to take Jenna away.
"Don't, it's dangerous." Jenna saw him climbing the gate in desperation. Her blood ran cold as what he was doing was indeed dangerous. She could imagine blood gushing out of his hands once he reached the top and her heart quivered.
The rain and wind battered her. Chilled by the wind, Jenna fainted. Her umbrella was swept away by the wind as she had no strength left in her.
"Jenna!" "Jen!" Both Hansen and Rayan shouted in dismay simultaneously.
"Quick! Open the gate!" Hansen roared as he continued climbing.
"Jen." Rayan quickly approached her and carried her in his arms. He called her name anxiously, trying to rouse her but to no avail. Nevertheless, he remained calm and opened the gate with the remote control in his hand.
The gate finally slid open.
Hansen jumped down from the gate and dashed inside.
"Jenna." He pushed Rayan away and snatched Jenna away. Jenna's face had turned ashen and blood had drained from her face. She looked frail and did not respond to their cries. Fear clutched at his gut.
"Hurry up, let's go to the hospital," Rayan remained composed and instructed.
Hansen finally regained his senses and stood up abruptly.
He carried her in his arms and rushed outside without a second thought.
Rayan ran quickly to the garage to get his car. His Rolls-Royce soon caught up with Hansen. "Quick, get into the car."
Wind and rain slashed at Hansen as he stood by the road, carrying Jenna in his arms. The street was vacant. No one was in sight, let alone a cab. Rayan's villa was indeed secluded and Hansen had no choice except to get into the car.
Hansen relented and got into the car for Jenna's sake. She needed immediate medical attention.
At the VIP ward of the hospital.
"How is she? Dr. Jenkins, is she all right? Why did she faint?" Blanch Jenkins was the most experienced physician in the hospital. She shifted her gaze to Hansen who was on pins and needles and asked solemnly, "What's your relationship with the patient?"
"I am her husband," Hansen replied without hesitation.
"Then, what about you?" Blanch did not reveal Jenna's condition immediately. Instead, she questioned their identities.
"I am her friend." Hansen had already secured the best ward and the most experienced doctor after Rayan had parked the car. Although he was worried about Jenna, he did not wish to fight with Hansen in front of a doctor. He chose to stand aside and only gave the doctor a brief answer.
Blanch turned to face Hansen. She did not recognize him. She had worked in this hospital for a very long time but she was not interested in gossip and had never met the owner of the hospital. Besides, Hansen never interfered with the operation of the hospital. Many people knew his name but had never met him in person.
