Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 394

"Sergio, let's call it a night. I hope our cooperation will go well." Zoella rose to her feet and reached out her hand elegantly.

Sergio, slightly drunk, outstretched his hand and took hers. There was a deep and unpredictable smile on his face.

Zoella got up and left.

Sergio raised his head. On the TV screen, Hansen took Jenna's hand and left. Sergio's eyes narrowed and dimmed.

In the study of the Xanthe family's residence.

Sergio and Yadriel were having tea in the study.

The Xanthe residence was allocated by the government. Although it was not magnificent, it was the standard for public servants.

"Dad, do you think we can trust Zoella?" Sergio took a sip of tea. The strong aroma of Earl Grey made him take in a greedy breath.

The father and son were fond of tea, and often they would discuss political affairs in the study, with tea as a refreshment. It was an important way for Yadriel to influence Sergio in politics for many years. Gradually, it shaped Sergio into a cold- blooded man who was willing to risk everything for his political career.

He was not like the others who acted rashly without a care because of their father's high status. Instead, under the influence of Yadriel, he had a meticulous mind and was prudent. He was humble, polite, and well-mannered. It was hard to tell that he had come from a powerful family, but his methods were ruthless and sinister. He was not inferior to Yadriel in the least, and this was what Yadriel was most satisfied with.

"She is a businesswoman who puts her interests above all. She is not at all trustworthy," Yadriel said with a straight face, but he quickly changed the subject. "This is why Luqman looked for them, which is not surprising. This is in line with his 'anything goes' personality."

Sergio nodded while thinking, the light in his eyes as sharp as a knife.

Obviously, a woman like Zoella was not one to be lorded over. If he cooperated with her, what would the consequences be? It would have taxed his mind.

"Dad, what should we do about her..." He asked eventually. Before he could finish his sentence, Yadriel shook his hand as if he understood what Sergio meant.

Yadriel took a sip of tea, and the steam blew over his face. It was obscuring his shrewd face, making him look mysterious.

"Politics is our top priority. As long as it benefits us, we should strive for it. Success will come after that. You will know what to do when you succeed." As he spoke, Yadriel praised the beverage. "This tea is worth its price. The aroma is divine and lingering. Not bad."

The corners of Sergio's mouth curled up and a smile slowly appeared on his face. His thick eyebrows relaxed. A handsome smile was carved on his face.

"When will Madam Lilian return to the country?" Sergio asked with a serious face.

"Well, things are rather unstable over there now. Madam Lilian's schedule has been changed. I have received a notice from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs today," Yadriel said hastily, as if he had thought of something.

Sergio nodded, feeling relaxed all over.

"This secret can't be revealed to anyone for the time being. Keep it in mind." Yadriel lifted his head and once again reminded him. "Including Jenna and Sara."

"I know." Sergio nodded and gave a weary smile. When Jenna had been mentioned, the dejected look in his eyes was obvious.

Yadriel looked at him and said in a deep voice, "It's human nature to love. Hence the disappointment of not having your feelings reciprocated."

Yadriel had anticipated the second marriage between Hansen and Jenna. This was not a blow to him. It was natural for a man and a woman to fall in love after being in each other's company for a long time.

However, his son had been infatuated with Jenna for a long time as well. If it weren't for Hansen, Jenna would have been his daughter-in-law. If so, that would be a great thing.

However, the reality was that Xanthe family was looked down upon by others. As long as Yadriel thought of this, hatred dug deeper into his heart.

The sight of his dejected son upset him.

In recent years, he had witnessed Sergio's progress. Sergio was ruthless and scheming. He'd learned it from him. However, when he faced problems regarding Jenna, he'd shown a rare hesitation and a woeful look.

This was not what he wanted to see.

Yadriel didn't oppose Sergio getting close to Jenna, but he didn't want him to be obsessed with her and affect his normal life.

"How about this? Sabrina, the daughter of General Delia, has refused the marriage proposal from Norton. She has not found a suitable partner yet. I'll propose on your behalf." Yadriel thought for a while, and said seriously, "You know, General Delia has a great status in Capital City. Besides, Sabrina is sweet and beautiful. She's a perfect match for you."

Sabrina? The innocent, youthful, and beautiful woman emerged in Sergio's mind. When she smiled, the two dimples on her face would show. Was that cute? Yes, of course.

However, that was not the type that Sergio liked. Obviously, she was not his cup of tea.

Nevertheless, he had to compromise after all.

So far, there was no woman in his heart who could compete with Jenna.

His heart was heavy, and the sense of loss was distinct.
