Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 748

Steffan was happy and easygoing. He was also very considerate. The slight crow's feet at the outer corner of his eyes made him look more mature and masculine.

Jenna smiled helplessly. She was a conscientious and proactive worker. She was the complete opposite of Steffan.

"Steffan, I'm not hungry yet," she said softly as she lowered her head.

Steffan would frequently take her out to eat all kinds of delicious food. As long as it was what she wanted to eat, he would not hesitate to take her to eat it. He would not take no for an answer. Over the past year, he had become her guardian.

After a long period of time, she developed some sort of dependence on him. However, deep down, she had an uneasy feeling. She was unable to get over it.

Steffan once told her that he had found her by the river.

A year ago, he was in the depths of Sunshine Mountain in A City, searching for inspiration. He sat by the riverbank as he sketched an image of a car.

Suddenly, a wave in the river swept over.

A woman's body was unexpectedly washed ashore. He was surprised at that time.

He walked over to check on the woman and realized that she was inhaling and exhaling shallow breaths.

At that time, he knew he could not leave her. He immediately put away his drawing and gathered her in his arms.

He called her 'Dory' because he found her in the water.

"I know that you are a conscientious employee, but you should know that I am not a tyrant. You don't have to work so hard. Our health is more important." He stood up and smiled. "Dory, let's go. It's getting late. Let's go out for dinner. I'm going to take you to a sushi restaurant."

Jenna was not able to dissuade him. She knew that she had to listen to him. Otherwise, he would not be happy. She smiled back at him and stood up.

The snow was steadily falling from the sky. Srirano was vast, but sparsely populated. Everything was covered with layers of snow.

She was dressed in a black wool coat and looked noble and elegant.

He stood under a big tree as he waited for her.

Jenna had been afraid of the cold ever since she was fished out of the water. She wore a thick down jacket over her light blue turtle- neck sweater. It was paired with a long skirt that dragged on the ground as she slowly made her way to Steffan.

"Come here." Steffan reached out a hand to her when she approached him.

A trace of embarrassment flashed in Jenna's bright eyes. She did not reach out for a long time.

Steffan smiled at her. He then reached out and grabbed her hand. He held her hand tightly.

Her hand was cold. Even if he held her warm hand with his own warm ones, he would still not be able to warm her.

He held her hand and led her away.

"Steffan, let go of me. I can walk on my own." She struggled.

He had been showing her affection recently. He would occasionally flirt with her as well. This made her feel extremely uneasy.

"Please don't turn me down." He held her hand even more tightly and whispered, "You should know that this was not how I treated you when I first found you."

Jenna was a little stunned.

When he rescued her, he did not have much patience and just regarded her as a bystander. He wanted to send her on her way. Later, she was able to convince him and she witnessed a change in his attitude.

The snowflakes were drifting in front of them. Jenna shivered in the cold. Steffan knew very well that she was afraid of the cold and wanted to hold her in her arms, but Jenna skillfully avoided him when she realized what he wanted to do.

"Steffan, don't be like this. I once had a child and my background is unknown. I don't want to ruin your reputation," she said firmly, avoiding him.
