Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 429

Jenna walked out of the Ink Garden and headed straight for Richards Group.

"Mr. Garver, who gave you the permission to publish the news? Did you get my permission to do so? Who is the reporter responsible for this? What do they want and on whose orders? I want you guys to give me a satisfactory answer regarding the identity of the culprit." Jenna came out of the elevator and was walking towards Hansen's office when she heard Hansen's bellows. At first, she was shocked, but she soon realized what was happening. "You guys don't have the right to reveal my story to the public. Consider this a warning. You guys had better apologize or I'm definitely going to sue you. If you feel that you have the ability to go against me, then you may ignore what I've said. However, I won't give you a second chance."

Obviously, Hansen already received news about what had happened. He was smart and sharp. Without a doubt, he knew that something was amiss.

Jenna stood in the corridor, debating whether she should go in and ask him. After pondering the matter, she decided to enter her office first and put down her stuff. She would find him once he had calmed down.

As soon as she entered her office, she noticed that someone was already inside. At first, she thought it was the cleaner but to her surprise, she saw Liya standing in front of her desk. Her gaze seemed to be riveted upon something on it.

She pursed her lips in displeasure.

"Liya, why are you in my office?" Jenna's expression darkened. She walked towards her and made her annoyance noticeable.

Liya didn't expect her to come in at this moment and was caught off guard. However, she calmed down quickly and put on a smile. "Ms. Murphy, the global car network program has been designed. I want you to have a look but you weren't here. I just came in a few minutes ago."

"Really?" Jenna put down her bag and asked casually, "Don't you know that you cannot enter a superior's office as you wish? It's very impolite to do so. Aren't you aware of that?"

"Erm..." Liya did not know how to respond. She knew that she was in the wrong and flushed crimson as she lowered her head in embarrassment. "I'm sorry, Ms. Murphy. I thought that you were in your office as you normally are around this time. Hence, I did not think too much when I entered." "Your explanation sounds plausible. However, I would like to ask, don't you need to knock on the door before you enter? Shouldn't you leave at once upon realizing that nobody was in the room?" Jenna asked sternly. "If you don't know the rules, I can instruct Mr. Parker to teach you."

Jenna was about to make a call to Mr. Parker upon finishing her sentence.

She was getting more suspicious of Liya. Something felt incredibly wrong, although she was not sure what it was. Nevertheless, she was concerned about Liya's attitude and behavior.

How could a top scholar act so recklessly and enter a superior's office without permission? It really seemed that she had done it on purpose. There were rules in the company. If she didn't reprimand her, incidents like this might happen again in the future.

"Ms. Murphy, no! Please don't sack me. Working at Richards Group has always been my dream. Now that my father is ill, I really need the money as my family is struggling financially. Please don't drive me away, I beg you. I'm sorry for disobeying the rules. I will not do it again. Is that alright for you?" Out of a sudden, Liya dashed over and pleaded as she stopped her from making the call.

Jenna was surprised. She just wanted to call Benson and instruct him to explain to her about the company's rules and regulations. She didn't mention anything about driving her away. What was she doing?

Just as she was in a state of bewilderment, someone coughed and she spun around to see Hansen entering. He still looked furious.

"Ms. Murphy, I beg you, don't sack me. I will study the company's rules and regulations well and I will never defy you again. Please forgive me." Liya pleaded pitifully and held her hand. Her eyes brimmed with tears and anyone would have sympathized with her.

She had her back to Hansen. There was no way that she would have noticed Hansen coming in. However, Jenna couldn't help feeling that she was putting on an act because she knew that Hansen was near.

For a moment, she was confused. Liya didn't seem to know Hansen. She had not been in the company for long and she worked in the network department. Hansen rarely came over. Why was she acting in this manner? If she was putting on an act because Hansen was near, what made her think that Hansen would speak up for her?

Everyone in the company was aware of her relationship with Hansen. Hence, what was the point of her putting on an act?

Suddenly, she felt a lump in her throat and was feeling very uncomfortable. However, she could not wrap her head around Liya's behavior. She heard Hansen asking, "Ms. Murphy, what happened?"

Just as Jenna was about to respond, Liya's action shocked her.

As soon as she heard Hansen's voice, she spun around as though she had found her knight in shining armor. Her eyes shone and she dashed over and grabbed Hansen's suit timidly. She looked at him with pitiful eyes and begged him. "Hansen, help me. We have lived together for three years. Please ask Ms. Murphy to forgive me. I won't repeat my mistakes. I really entered by accident and I meant no harm. Hansen, I beg you."

Liya stared at Hansen with her moist and glistening eyes. She looked pathetic and was obviously in distress.

She appeared to be in such a pitiful state that any man would be moved at a glance.

However, Hansen frowned. He glanced at her hand which was holding his suit and bellowed, "Let go of me."

The coldness in his voice made Liya's face turn pale. Tears streamed down her cheeks and she spoke dejectedly.
