Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 7

"Seems like you are eager to leave at any moment." He stared at her and said coldly.

Ha! Jenna Murphy secretly sneered. She would never have stepped into this room and faced this devil if she didn't have to, no matter how ceremoniously they invited her. She hated being near the man who killed her father. A cold glint flashed across her eyes, and she felt a dull pain in her heart. She gritted her teeth and didn't say a word.

The excitement surging in Hansen Richards's heart rapidly cooled down. His gloomy face was covered with frost, and his voice was scarily frigid. "I'll give you ten days to design five luxury model cars that will impact the global market. One of them must surpass the Modern Idia. Can you do that?"

He looked at her with his unreadable eyes as his thin lips slowly parted.

Five models in ten days? Was he intentionally challenging her? Good ideas are inspired by everyday life, and it wasn't something that could be created overnight.

Looking into his demanding and contemptuous eyes, Jenna knew that she had to knowingly walk into the trap.

"Yes I can." She gritted her teeth and added emphatically, "But you have to agree to my request as well." Another request? How dare a subordinate make a request to the boss? Hansen was very displeased. He leaned against the back pillows as he tapped on it with his fingers, and his eyes were ice cold.

Jenna did not look at him.

The Whalen Overseas Group was the Richards Group's biggest competitor in product globalization. The Whalen Group has become more powerful than the Richards Group in the global market thanks to the extreme popularity of the Modern Idia, which was designed by Jenna. But the famously ambitious Richards Group was not going to back off because of that.

The upcoming press conference was basically an attempt to challenge the Whalen Group. As far as she knew, the Richards Group currently didn't have any spectacular model cars that could win over the global market at the moment.

She wasn't worried at all that Hansen would refuse!

"There are two limited edition Panika luxury cars manufactured overseas by the Richards family that are in A city. I want them." She said calmly without missing a beat, but her eyes were fixed on his handsome face, determined to catch every single one of his micro expressions.

If what happened to her father really had something to do with him, there's no way that he could hide it perfectly without flustering at all.

Hansen's eyes were calm, but his pupils contracted ever so slightly. Sparks of light bursted through his inky pupils like lightning among stormy dark clouds. He leaned forward and closed his fingers in his palms. The cold and silent light in his eyes gradually became less harsh, and took on a tinge of curiosity. The muscles on his face relaxed, and a faint smile flashed across it.

Other than his usual detachment, there wasn't any kind of notable loss of composure on his face. If anything, he looked incredibly calm!

Jenna was a little disappointed, but also a little hopeful at the same time. To be honest, she didn't want to believe that Hansen would really be so vicious and cruel. There was no reason for him to be that heartless, even if he hated her.

He lit a cigar and took a few long drags. His handsome face was partly hidden by the smoke, his eyes were dark, and his expression was unreadably silent.

Jenna's chest suddenly tightened. She couldn't see through him!

Jenna heard his deep and sonorous voice calmly cutting through the tense confrontation, I'll agree to that."

"Ahem." Jenna let out a sigh of relief and choked on his smoke, so she coughed softly.

"Very well, I hope that our collaboration will be pleasant." She smiled, stood up, and turned around to leave.

An arm that was strong as iron suddenly wrapped around her slender waist, immediately stopping her movement.

A spark of anger flashed in her eyes, and she glared at him. The corners of Hansen's lips curled into an enigmatic smile, and his hand was still around her waist. He looked down at her with unfathomable eyes.
