Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 377

"I couldn't sleep. So, I came out to take a walk," he said honestly, with gentleness in his sparkling eyes. He was really upset with her. With grievance, he said, "Who told you not to come and keep me company?"

"Please, are you a three-year-old? How childish," Jenna said in an unkind tone, rolling her eyes at him.

"You can't blame me. It's you who forced me." It was such a far-fetched excuse, but he said it so convincingly. What a talented person.

"Hmm, I may ask, is this even a valid reason?" She thought to herself.

Thinking about it, she realised that his behavior was exactly the same as Jerry's. All her life, she would have to be under the control of the father and son duo.

Jenna was speechless and helpless. She hung her head low and was silent for a moment, then she asked softly, "Have you eaten yet?"

"No," Hansen replied straightforwardly and clearly. His thin lips pouted as if he had been tortured by someone, and she was the perpetrator.

It was just as she expected.

Jenna didn't know whether to laugh or to cry.

"This guy is really a jerk." She scolded secretly.

"Then why don't you go back in to eat?" Jenna asked in a serious tone. When she looked up, she saw that his handsome face had indeed become a little gaunt. It must have been hard for him in the past few days. She felt pain in her heart.

Each time, her heart would soften at the sight of his slight suffering. "How disappointing." She scolded herself. She actually cared about him that much!

"No, I have no appetite anymore," Hansen answered with a hint of annoyance. There was actually a trace of life on his face.

"Is it my fault that you haven't eaten as well?" Jenna widened her round eyes. "You are really good at coming up with excuses."

"It was you who forced me. Who told you not to come and keep me company? I'm already too hungry. My stomach hurts," he said. He even made a 'hmph' sound on purpose, with a pained expression on his face.

As he spoke, he stole a glance at her from the corner of his eyes and secretly studied her.

Jenna had just drank some red wine. Her cheeks were flushed, looking very attractive. When she smiled and whispered, her eyes were sparkling.

She looked very spirited and even lovelier.

As expected, he could see a trace of nervousness on her face. Hansen's heart was filled with joy.

"Let's go home and have dinner." Jenna looked nervous. After all, he was starving, which was not a good thing. His stomach was already unwell to begin with. There were hundreds of thousands of people in the Richards Group waiting for him to give orders. Besides, the headquarters of the petrochemical factory also needed his help.

"I can't eat alone." With a poker face, Hansen continued to push the request. He was not afraid that she would not compromise. "I want you to accompany me."

As he spoke, he moved closer to her and whispered in her ear in an extremely loving tone, "That includes sleeping."

Jenna blushed even more. Since she had already come out of the house, she didn't intend to go back. Hence, she could only accompany him back to have dinner.

After thinking, she sighed and said, "Okay, I promise you, but you have to get used to eating alone. It's not good for your health if you continue to starve yourself just because you don't want to eat alone."

With his wish fulfilled, Hansen's heart was filled with joy. However, when he heard the latter half, his face darkened once more.

"What do you mean? Do you still want to leave me?"

He sounded displeased. Jenna certainly heard it, but she didn't promise anything. She recalled Alvin's words and fell deep in thought.

They still couldn't get past Sara. She didn't have the confidence to convince her mother. She didn't want Sara to be sad. Moreover, the matter of the petrochemical factory was still waiting decision. It seemed that she couldn't go back for the time being.

Jenna's silence made Hansen feel vexed. He stood there, unmoving. The light in his eyes was dim.

"Hansen, let's go. I'll accompany you back to eat first," Jenna said softly. She then made the first move and held his hand.

Hansen stood rooted to the spot as he stared intently at her.

"Jenna, tell me, what are you thinking about now?"

"I..." Jenna avoided his gaze. She didn't know how to answer him. Could she say that she was not mentally prepared yet, and that she really didn't want her mother to be too sad?

"Am I not worthy of your trust?" Hansen's face darkened. His eyes were fixed on her, as if he was trying to see through her.

"Hansen, go back and eat first. I have something to tell you after dinner." Jenna didn't want to talk about those matters out on the streets. Plus, it was so late and he hadn't eaten yet. In those years, for the Richards Group's work, although he was a young master and president, he'd skipped meals when he was busy. His stomach was very unwell. With such a thought, she really couldn't bear to let him starve, so she pulled him.

Hansen was still pulling a long face. "You'll have to sleep with me tonight. Otherwise, I won't eat."

He deliberately emphasized the word 'sleep', and his voice was very suggestive as well. Jenna bit her lips and looked at him with a red face.

Hansen stood with his head held high, showing no sign of compromise.

"Okay, I promise," Jenna agreed. She had to coax him to eat first. All the other problems could be discussed later! On the other hand, Hansen was thinking about how he could tell her everything in one night.
