Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 610

"Stop right there, Liya," Jenna shouted at Liya, who left in a hurry.

After taking a few steps, Liya couldn't help but to come to a halt.

"Liya, I'm warning you that you're not to set foot in Grandma's bedroom from today onwards. We all highly respect Grandma, and I will never allow filthy women like you to tarnish her dignity. Keep this in mind. Otherwise, I will have the security kick you out. Also, you must remember that your stay was approved out of Mr. Trevor's kindness. If you ever try to stir trouble in Richards Manor, then I will never forgive you," Jenna warned with a stern voice.

"Well see, b*tch." Liya let out a low curse. However, she didn't have the guts to confront Jenna any further in Vivian's bedroom. It wasn't because she was afraid of Jenna. She was concerned that Vivian might wake up anytime, and she would be in great trouble by then. Therefore, after letting out a muffled curse, she then left the room dejectedly.

After returning to her bedroom, Liya glanced around at the antique furniture. She thought to herself that her days in the noble Richards family weren't half as fun as the lavish days she spent with Oscar. She glanced at the new quilt on her antique bed, and she got even more frustrated, but what annoyed her more was how much more powerful Jenna had become. Everyone under this roof obeyed Jenna's words while they wouldn't even bother to cast another glance at Liya. This made Liya feel unfair and upset.

A wave of drowsiness hit her and she yawned. She did not have the time to think about anything, falling asleep on the bed.

"Madam, do you really believe that Old Madam would regain her consciousness and testify against Liya?" Aunt Ella asked Jenna as she thought of how Jenna had taught Liya a lesson. She was a little relieved to see Liya leaving the room, panicking.

Jenna smiled wryly and said, "Aunt Ella, it's difficult for Grandma even to recognize us by now, let alone hoping that she will recall all this. I said that just to scare Liya off."

Aunt Ella nodded thoughtfully and sighed. "Anyway, there is something really suspicious about Old Madam's will. No matter how confused Old Madam is because of her illness, it just doesn't sound like her to make such a will. That's odd. Could it be that someone else had snuck into her room and amended her will instead?"

Aunt Ella muttered with a puzzled look on her face.

Jenna was reminded of the guilty look in Liya's eyes, and the light in her eyes condensed into a straight line.

She was lost in thought and didn't say anything in response to Aunt Ella.

"Madam, are you looking for me?" Lomen asked. He had been staying in the Ink Garden ever since Trevor had arranged for him to protect Jenna for the time being.

"Yes, I am," Jenna stood up and closed the door to the Ink Garden's office. She then said seriously, "Lomen, I need you to keep an eye on Liya from today onwards. Take note of whatever she did and wherever she went, and then report to me daily."

Lomen was stunned. He then shook his head and said, "No, Madam, I can't do this. Mr. Trevor made himself clear that I have to keep you safe. I can't fulfil your tasks if it means that I will have to leave your side."

His words were stubborn and firm.

"Lomen, I understand where you're coming from, but you have to think about this. I won't be anywhere else but in Richards Manor. Everyone here respects me. No one will hurt me except for Liya. You keeping an eye on her will be protecting me in return," Jenna replied firmly.

Lomen noticed how determined Jenna was. He had to agree that her words made sense as well. So, he immediately said, "Madam, it's a critical moment now, especially when everyone else around Mr. Richards is occupied with their tasks. You have to be aware of your surroundings and keep yourself safe, so that Mr. Richards can focus on getting his things done."

Jenna smiled faintly and said, "I know about that. Don't worry."

Lomen felt more at ease and left the office.

In the study of Green Jade Garden, Trevor was practising his lettering skills.

"Mr. Trevor, Madam asked me to keep an eye on Liya from today onwards. What do you have to say about this?" Lomen walked in for an inquiry.

Trevor lifted his head. There was a brief moment of shock on his expression, but soon, a smile replaced that.

"Was that what she asked of you?" Trevor asked casually.

"Yes. She asked me in her office in the Ink Garden and assigned this task to me," Lomen replied honestly.

With a pen in hand, Trevor concentrated on writing something on the paper before looking up at

Lomen again.

"Lomen, what about the verification of the will?" Trevor asked nonchalantly.

"Mr. Trevor, that will take much more time than expected," Lomen replied, shaking his head.

"Lomen, even if we can prove that the handwriting on the will was amended, we still can't prove who's behind this. Although we have a hundred reasons to believe that it is Liya, they're just baseless accusations. Therefore, it's right for Jenna to ask you to keep an eye on Liya. You can just carry out the task as per Jenna's instruction, while at the same time, protect Jenna at all costs, especially when Liya is at home. You have to be aware if she'll pull any trick on Jenna," Trevor said in a serious manner as he put his pen down.

By keeping an eye on Liya, it was possible for them to find more clues to their unanswered questions. This was what Trevor planned to do, and apparently, Jenna shared the same thought.

Lomen was relieved after getting Trevor's approval.

At an apartment in Capital City.

It was located in a suburb of the city. The trees were dense, and the surroundings were quiet. There were few people living in this area, and it was secluded.
