Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 448

"Jenna, did you go home just now? Is Jerry alright?" As soon as Sabrina left the office, Hansen walked towards her and reached out his hand to touch her. However, for some inexplicable reason, Jenna seemed to be in a bad mood and avoided him.

She recalled Liya's expression when she went out of the elevator a moment ago and it made her even more upset. Liya was apparently in high spirits.

Hansen was startled when Jenna avoided him. He glanced at her and was a little taken aback to see her gloomy expression. His mind raced.

"Did Jerry say that he missed me?" he asked gently with a grin. However, a flash of anguish crossed his face.

"Yes, he was wailing, begging me not to leave." Jenna could still hear the sound of Jerry weeping and it made her heart ache terribly. She raised her head as she was choked with sobs.

Hansen fell silent.

"Hansen, I'm going abroad for a while." She pondered the matter for a while before firmly stating her wish.

"Oh, why though?" Hansen was surprised when he heard that she was going aboard. His voice was filled with concern as he asked.

"What else can I do? I'm going to settle the issues over there. All the cars have been recalled from the market. I must go over and check on the situation." Jenna's expression was solemn.

"Sure," Hansen replied after only a moment's thought. "When are you leaving?"

"Tomorrow," Jenna answered clearly.

Hansen raised his head and looked at her. He seemed to be preoccupied with something when he said, "If there's a lot to do over there, you can stay there for a few days or go on a vacation. Enjoy yourself over there."

Hansen reached out his hand and wrapped his arms around her as he pulled her into an embrace. He rested his chin on her hair as he stared blankly ahead.

Stay there for a few more days? What did he mean by that?

Jenna's heart sank and she was terribly upset. Was he planning to spend time with Liya once she was gone?

At this moment, they heard Sergio and Sabrina quarreling in the room next to them.

Both of them turned their heads towards the

direction.

"Hansen, Yadriel has proposed an arranged marriage between Sergio and Sabrina to General Delia," Jenna explained to him in a low voice.

Hansen furrowed his brows as he sniggered.

He seemed to be lost in thought and merely replied, "Oh."

"Jenna." Hansen glanced down at her and called her name gently.

Jenna looked up at him. Their eyes met and they were filled with affection, longing, anguish, and exasperation.

Hansen's square jaw tensed up visibly and his eyelids drooped as he said, "Remember what I've told you before."

There were some secrets that he did not wish to tell her, as he was afraid that she would be worried about him. If she could stay out of the matter and leave the company for a while, it would be the best arrangement. The thought crossed his mind and he reminded her in a gentle voice.

Jenna seemed to be lost in thought. Thoughts of Liya clouded her mind and her smile was strained. She did not hear what Hansen said at all.

She felt the urge to question him whether Liya had come over to his office a moment ago and the reason for it. She parted her lips and was about to ask him when she saw him looking at her with deep affection. It made her heart race with joy.

In that instant, she changed her mind. She decided to trust him again. She believed that he loved her and would not be seduced by Liya.

Their eyes locked on one another. Both of them wanted to say something, yet nobody spoke. There were so many things to say and neither knew how to begin the conversation.

The door swung open with a loud bang. Fuming mad, Sabrina walked into the office and shouted, "How infuriating! Who does he think he is? How dare he order me to leave?"

Jenna and Hansen glanced at one another and both of them understood at once what the other was thinking. They were both touched by Sabrina's kindness.

"You two can continue chatting. I'll take my leave first," Hansen said indifferently as he walked out of the office.

As soon as stepped out of the office, he saw Sergio standing in the corridor, with his unwavering glare holding him in place.

Hansen walked towards him and his gaze turned ice- cold. He wanted to ignore him but Sergio lowered his voice and bellowed, "Hansen, I have solid evidence that you guys are involved in the matter. Even General Delia would not be able to save you. You should know what you have to do."

Upon hearing what he had said, Hansen's temper sparked and he said sternly, "Sergio, you may be a public official, but that does not give you the right to speak as you please. Let me warn you that we have always obeyed the law and have never been involved in any illegal activities. There is not enough evidence to press charges against us. Since many are suspicious of us, I will definitely get to the bottom of the mystery. As for you, I would like to remind you that your father is going to run for the State Governor's position soon. Why don't you help him instead of meddling in my affairs? You better not regret what you are doing right now as I will make you pay for it."

Hansen was seething with anger. His aura was overbearing and he did not back down in front of Sergio. Their eyes met and both were filled with rage and pure hatred for each other.

"I'm warning you. Don't throw the helve after the hatchet." Although Sergio was troubled by what he had said, he did not show it. Instead, his expression darkened and he sniggered. "We'll see, Hansen," he said confidently.

Upon saying that, he glanced at him. His expression was unreadable before he spun around and left.

Hansen was stunned. For the first time in his life, he was feeling so agitated and lost. He clenched his fists and dragged himself back to his office.

Jenna stood by the door and she had heard every bit of the conversation. After a while, thoughts of Vivian and her emaciated appearance crossed her mind. It filled her with anguish.

Jenna recalled the sight of Hansen walking towards his office, looking very dejected and miserable. This was the first time she had seen him in this state after all these years. He was no longer confident and formidable. Instead, he was in distress and he looked extremely lonely. Jenna's heart ached for him and she was no longer suspicious of him.
