Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 86

"Old Madam, it's time to take your medicine," Meroy came over with a small capful of medicine and a glass of warm water, reminding her in a low voice. She knew that Old Madam was just resting her eyes and she could hear whatever that was going on.

Grandma Richards opened her slightly cloudy eyes and sighed, "It's fine even if I don't take this medicine. I know I don't have much time left. However, I am still a little worried. I'm old and fine with death, but there are some things that I cannot let go of."

She said it in sorrow. Tears were running down her face.

Meroy, who had been by the Old Madam's side for a long time, knew what she was worried about. She comforted her in a soft voice, "Old Madam, you're a very lucky person. Everything will be fine. Don't worry too much. Your health is the most important thing right now."

A gentle breeze swept across Grandma Richard's silver hair, blowing strands across her forehead. She, who had always loved dressing up, just put on some simple clothes and had no intention of dressing up. Her ruddy face was covered with a strange sadness.

"It seems like it's time for me to take action. Otherwise, Hansen won't be able to be true to himself. After so many years, Hansen still can't understand. There are some things that I can't blame others for. It's all my fault,1' Grandma Richards said sadly, "If I don't get to see the Richards Group flourishing and making amends in my lifetime, I'll feel ashamed of myself and of the Richards family. I'm worried that I do not have much time left and will not be able to live to see that day."

Grandma Richards's expression was sorrowful with tears streaming down her face.

"Old Madam, today's your birthday. You shouldn't say things like this. Good things are yet to come. You are still very healthy and strong. You will live over 100 years. Don't worry. The young masters are shrewd. They can take care of themselves. I'm sure they can live on their own. Old Madam, just be happy and enjoy the rest of your life. Your grandchildren will come to visit you shortly. You are very fortunate to have such filial children and grandchildren, and you've also been blessed with much wealth. People must be jealous of you. Old Madam, you are truly blessed," Meroy quickly offered Old Madam some comforting words when she saw that she was in tears of grief.

Grandma Richards sighed and said with a bitter smile, "People may think that I have infinite glory, but in fact, no one knows the sorrow behind it. No one knows that the Richards Manor has survived many years of glory and humiliation and that it was eventually preserved thanks to the Old Master. Now, if the descendants of the Richards family do not continue to work hard, I'm afraid that the Richards Manor will go downhill."

Meroy was stunned and did not understand why the Old Madam said that. Although there were not many descendants of the Richards family, there were at least two young masters who were doing exceptionally well. They were very respectable and renowned in society. Old Madam's words were a little exaggerated which might be because older people saw things differently. She immediately explained, "Old Madam, you're overthinking. Now the eldest young master of the Richards family is now in charge of the Richards Group, and the second young master is also the Director of the Finance Ministry. There must be a lot of people who envy them! I'm pretty sure there are a lot of people in A city who wish to be in your position."

Grandma Richards burst into tears again when she heard Meroy's words, "Meroy, you just don't see things clearly. There are some things that I know very well deep down."

After she said that, she closed her eyes again.

Meroy was a little worried when she saw that Old Madam was not in a good mood. She then helped her up and gave her her medicine before reading the newspaper for her. When she flipped to the page about Hansen's and Jenna's news, her face lit up, even her voice sounded cheerful.

However, the Old Madam's eyes remained closed and she didn't speak, as if she was asleep.

Meroy thought that she was asleep, but she had a strange feeling in her heart, however, she did not dare to ask any questions.

When Hansen drove back to the Richards Manor with Jenna in his Hummer, Jenna was still in daze; it was as if she was in a dream. She looked around in disbelief. Was she really back at the Richards Manor? When she returned to her former home after three years, everything seemed to have changed. She was no longer a member of this family, but why did she always feel that the grass and trees were still so familiar? This place, where she had been humiliated, seemed to have a great connection with her.

She smiled bitterly, feeling a little bored and empty.

"You should get down and wait for me. Remember not to go anywhere else," Hansen stopped his car on the broad, clean asphalt road in the center of the manor and ordered Jenna. Jenna nodded, opened the door, and got down from the car slowly. She was met with the sight of a beautiful vintage style garden surrounded by European- style villas. The trees provided shade and greenery for the villas, which was a wonderful sight.

Jenna stood there indifferently and her bright eyes were as clear as water.

Butler Maud came out in a hurry to welcome her.
