"Jenna, are you alright?" Sergio asked with concern.
"I'm fine." Jenna shook her head. Since that person moved so swiftly, it must have been premeditated. She would not be able to find anything even if she wanted to investigate further. Besides, this is a blindspot and there were no cameras in sight. She could only blame herself for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Jenna shook her head in denial and didn't want to think further.
"Thank you, Sergio. I still have some matters to attend to." She didn't want to stay there any longer.
"Jenna, let's have a chat," Sergio said with a smile and tried to persuade her to stay.
His charming smile and gentle voice made Jenna feel at ease.
Jenna relaxed. She didn't have any special feelings for Sergio, but he didn't make her feel particularly disgusted. She smiled and said, "I've been here far too long. The only reason I came here was to get away from the crowd."
"Yes, there are indeed a lot of people today." Sergio smiled and nodded his head in agreement.
"It seems that Jenna also didn't like this kind of banquet social event." He thought.
Jenna gave a faint smile and made no comments. "Jenna, you're still the same after all these years. You're noble, upright, and unwilling to socialize with mediocre people. It must be hard for you to maintain your temperament in this world." Sergio praised sincerely.
"No, I'm also human. Please don't praise me like this." Jenna looked around and did not have the mood to carry on the conversation. What's more, this place was remote, and there were only two of them. Obviously, it was not inappropriate. She was Mrs. Richards now.
She then smiled politely and said with a hint of impatience, "Sergio, I didn't see you when Hansen and I were toasting. I didn't think I'd see you here. I've stayed here for far too long, Hansen must be looking for me. I have to go. Let's talk another day."
She lifted her gown and left.
"Jenna." Sergio stopped her in time. "I just got off the plane. I arrived late due to something urgent."
"Oh, I see." Jenna stopped in her tracks and plastered a smile. However, she did not turn around.
"Jenna, you're so beautiful tonight. Among all the women here, you're the most beautiful and pristine. You reminded me a lot of Jen." Sergio praised her from the bottom of his heart.
"Thank you." Jenna shook her head and smiled, "Sergio, I really have to go."
She lifted her gown again and wanted to leave.
"Jenna." Sergio really didn't want to let her go.
Jenna had to stop again after taking two steps. It seemed impolite to leave him alone like this. Besides, he had helped her up just now. What's more, she couldn't afford to offend the Xanthe family, who was militarily and politically influential. Not only that, Sergio had a good relationship with her mother back in Wullen Town.
"Congratulations on your wedding with Hansen. I saw it," Sergio said clearly to her back. The smile on his face froze and loneliness crossed his eyes.
These words made Jenna feel completely at ease. When it came to Hansen, a sense of happiness arose in her heart. She turned around and smiled brightly, "Thank you."
At this moment, the panic on her face faded away. She sported a charming and lively smile. It came from the bottom of her heart, filled with selfconfidence and happiness.
She must be very happy now. He couldn't help but to ask, "Is he good to you?" He wanted to hear her
answer himself.
"Yes." Jenna did not hesitate and answered loudly. She raised her head and said, "Hansen and I are very much in love. He cares about me deeply and we're very happy. I hope that you can find a beloved woman and live happily too."
"Thank you." The smile on Sergio's face was a little stiff.
