"B*tch, tell me. Did you plan the incident so that you could save my son and gain his sympathy? You are trying to gain his attention, aren't you?" Marissa asked fiercely.
"No, Auntie, I didn't." Jenna looked at Marissa's evil eyes and felt helpless. Taking into consideration how Hansen took care of her these few days, she referred to Marissa as "Auntie".
However, in Marissa's opinion, Jenna was pretending to be friendly and trying to seduce Hansen. Marisa could feel the love Jenna bore for her son. She thought that Jenna was eyeing the Richards family fortune, and that was why she would not let Hansen go easily. She would try to seduce him with all her means.
She couldn't stand by and watch this happen. She must stop it.
"B*tch, stop giving excuses. I know what you want to do. I won't let you succeed." Marissa had no expression on her face. She felt that Jenna was disgusting for pestering her son.
"Mom, she took a fancy to the status and wealth of the Richards family. She pestered Hansen and wouldn't let go. What should I do?" Aria said sadly, holding Marissa in her arms. "Now Hansen won't even talk to me. I haven't seen him for many days."
Aria looked at Jenna with bitter hatred. Her eyes were fixed on Jenna and were about to burst into flames.
She had not seen Hansen ever since the news on TV came out a few days ago. Even when she saw him in the company, he was in a hurry and dealt with her only perfunctorily.
Last night when she called him, he even refused her stiffly. It was hard for her to swallow this anger. She went to the Richards Mansion early morning with an excuse to discuss the Camphor Tree Villa. She then changed the topic and provoked Marissa into feeling angry. Marissa had long disliked Jenna, so she was triggered into rushing to the hospital with Aria.
Jenna could clearly feel Aria's intentions. However, she really did not want to waste time arguing with her.
"Mom, it's not that I can't tolerate her. It's just that this woman is really hateful. She is just so scheming and evil. Look at Dad. He is still lying in the hospital..." Aria pretended to be generous, but her words were straight to the point.
She deliberately mentioned the words, "Dad is lying in the hospital." Sure enough, it triggered something within Marissa. Her expression turned ugly and the anger within her began to soar.
Jenna clearly heard this sentence and her nerves instantly tightened. The image of the luxurious ward flashed across her mind and her whole body trembled.
"Could it be that the person who lives in that ward is Uncle Richards?" She thought to herself. Her face turned even paler as she was completely stunned. Three years ago, Jenna saw Trevor Richards fainting in front of her with her own eyes. At that time, she was scared out of her wits.
After that, Hansen appeared in front of her with a livid face and his furious eyes while Marissa grabbed her crazily.
At that time, she had been scared witless. She didn't know what to do!
Since then, three years had passed. She had never seen Trevor again. She didn't know which hospital he lived in and didn't dare to ask. She tried to forget the terrible scene that day and didn't want to remember it any longer.
It was not until she saw the ward yesterday and heard the nurses' words that she was reminded of this scene.
Now that she had heard what Aria said, she finally understood where that feeling came from.
Marissa was so angry that her head was buzzing because of Aria's words. She was reminded that her husband was lying on the hospital bed because of Jenna. Now, her son was even entangled with her. She no longer could control her anger and she lost her mind. She raised her hand and was about to slap Jenna's face.
Jenna's eyes were blurred and she was in a trance.
"Mom, what are you doing?" Just as Marissa's palm was about to hit Jenna's face, a strong hand quickly reached out and grabbed her hand. Hansen shouted angrily while he took hold of her hand with an ugly expression.
"Hansen, you're here," Aria said with her face full of surprise. When she saw that Hansen was holding breakfast in one hand, and Marissa's hand in the other, the joy in her heart subsided. Her face was as pale as ashes.
Sure enough, not only did Hansen take care of this woman in person, he even stood up for her.
Jenna deliberately blocked the knife for him, and that really touched him. He took care of her in person for a few days. When she called him, he just showed his impatience.
Since when did Hansen take care of a woman in person?
She was stunned and was burning with jealousy. She glanced at the weak woman sitting on the bed and said unwillingly, "Hansen, this woman is very scheming. She deliberately set up a trap to pretend to save you. Don't be deceived by her."
"Shut up." The anger on Hansen's face became more obvious. He shouted angrily and asked Aria, "Do you have any evidence that she set up this trap on purpose? Without evidence, you are merely gossiping here. When did you become such a woman?"
There was a loud boom in Aria's head, and she almost couldn't stand straight!
