Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 540

The Ink Garden was surrounded by greenery. There were lush trees, chirping birds, and fragrant flowers, which made the surrounding air particularly pleasant.

When Jenna finished her work in the office, she slowly walked out of the Ink Garden after visiting Vivian.

As soon as she stepped out of the gate, she could see a long and quiet corridor in front of her.

"Greetings, Madam." Jenna lifted her head and saw that Paul was greeting her while bowing to her.

"Paul?" Jenna was a bit surprised. She didn't expect to meet Paul in the Ink Garden at that point in time.

"Madam, I'm here to visit Vivian. So, I thought I'd visit you as well." Paul smiled as he explained.

"Oh." Jenna gave a faint smile after hearing his explanation.

"Madam, in another two days, Mr. Richards will be marrying Liya. You won't have any other thoughts, right?" Paul looked at her and asked worriedly.

Jenna clenched her fists for a moment and loosened them. She smiled bitterly in her heart, but her face remained calm.

"It's no use even if I have any other thoughts. Don't worry. I won't do anything stupid. Haven't you heard that I'll be personally hosting the wedding forthem?"

The smile on Jenna's face was very bleak as she said bitterly.

Paul looked at her particularly pale face and sighed, not saying anything in the end.

Jenna read something from Paul's eyes at that moment. "Paul, could it be that you know something and hadn't told me about it?" Thinking back to that day when she brought Liya to visit Vivian, even though she didn't say anything, she still sent Paul and Irvin to Africa two months prior, as if it had something to do with Claude. Vivian seemed to have predicted something, could it be...

"Paul, tell me, was it Grandma who wanted Hansen to marry Liya? Did she have the intention to set this scheme up long ago?"

Thinking of those strange things, she couldn't help but to ask again.

Paul's gaze was calm. "Madam, if it's possible, Vivian isn't even willing to see Liya. So, why would she expect her favorite grandson to marry her?"

At that point, he laughed again. "Madam, in fact, we don't know much about Mr. Richards' arrangement, but I do know he has his reasons for doing this. Madam, Mr. Richards' and Liya's wedding is only a wedding ceremony, and they won't be going to register," Paul said, after thinking for a while.

That was the inside story Paul had learnt of. In order to prevent Jenna from concerning too much about it, he chose to tell her that after some careful consideration.

Actually, Irvin had always been active in the war-torn country. From there, he received a piece of news that Claude would be escorted back to A City on the day of Liya's wedding. However, the terrorist organization was dissatisfied with that matter. Whether Claude could safely return to A City was still unconfirmed, and he couldn't predict if something else would happen after Claude returned to A City either. Right then, he was very worried about the matter. Hence, he had reason to believe that Reid bringing Claude back to A City definitely had something to do with Hansen's and Liya's wedding. Due to that, he also went to investigate and found that Hansen and Liya hadn't registered yet. Only then did he seem to understand Hansen's intentions.

When Jenna heard Paul's words, she was immediately stunned. Only then did she recall the problem regarding their registration. It was obviously impossible to carry it out locally, and Hansen had never mentioned going abroad to her either. It was because Hansen kept the whole matter a secret to her, and did not tell her anything that she assumed that they had already registered.

"So, he's doing this for a purpose, right?" In any case, Jenna was happy to hear that Hansen didn't register their marriage with Liya. However, in the traditional sense, holding such a grand wedding ceremony and inviting guests to the banquet would already be accepted by everyone as a fact due to A city's tradition, even if they didn't go through the legal procedures. Therefore, it was still totally possible for Liya to still remain in Richards Manor. After asking that question, Jenna felt overjoyed for a moment but she turned sad in an instant.

She lowered her head, and there was still a flash of pain in her eyes.

"Claude Richards. You know him, right?" Paul suddenly changed the topic and asked softly.

"Claude?" Jenna widened her eyes in shock. What did he mean?

"Madam, Liya's uncle, Reid, had kidnapped Claude, and he belongs to a terrorist organization in the war- torn country. Hence, this wedding is most likely just a trap set by Mr. Richards, so that he can lure Reid out and make him give Claude back. After all, life is the most important thing. Nevertheless, this is only my own speculation. Madam, no matter what happens in the end, you must be mentally prepared to accept reality. Of course, on the day of the wedding, I will always follow you to protect your safety." Paul was unable to confirm the entirety of Hansen's plan. Nonetheless, from the information he received, it was likely that the terrorist organization would take action. They probably wouldn't allow Reid to hand Claude over just because of Liya's wedding. Hence, the matter would have many variables. From Vivian's orders to him, he had to ensure Claude's safety as well as Jenna's.

"Madam, you can rest assured that I will give you an update if I learn of something new. You shouldn't worry too much. Let's meet one step at a time." After saying that, Paul left in a hurry, as if he had something urgent to do.

After Paul left, Jenna's heart actually calmed down a lot. Surely enough, there were many factors in Hansen's wedding. Although she had long guessed it, she still felt slightly comforted after hearing Paul's words that day.

She stood there for a while before slowly walking towards the Green Jade Garden.

After walking for a short distance, she felt dizzy. She also had a faint uncomfortable feeling in her stomach and had the urge to vomit. So, she leaned against the tree and rested for a while.

Jenna went back to the second floor of the Green Jade Garden with much difficulty. She lay on the couch and thought of the scene of Liya running towards Hansen's Hummer, which made her feel even more uncomfortable.

Ever since she knew how Liya thought of Hansen, whenever she thought of her or saw her, she would feel disgusted. If things continued on, how would she continue to live her life in the future?

She then lay on her side and closed her eyes, as she felt somewhat sleepy.

Hansen's car directly drove into the underground parking lot of Richards Manor.

When he was still in the car, his mind was filled with Jenna's pale and sallow face. He had seen such a face before, and it made him feel devastated and nervous.

He felt very tense.

That feeling made the blood in his body flow quicker.
