Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen)

Chapter 211

Jenna walked with her head down. She did not speak.

Hansen followed closely behind, inexplicably nervous.

Her silence bothered him.

Jenna walked slowly as he trailed behind her.

She quickened her pace and he followed suit.

The gloomy atmosphere was suffocating.

Jenna smiled coldly with infinite sadness in her heart.

Hansen was not worried about her. He was only afraid she would not forgive Norton and take revenge on him!

Paul had told her that day that Norton was involved in her father's death and that he would be released on bail soon.

At this moment, Jenna understood Vivian' s painstaking efforts. She had given her the inheritance rights of Richards Manor and the priceless Ocean Heart. To put it bluntly, she did all of this as an atonement on behalf of her grandson.

It seemed that Vivian had known the truth a long time ago but did not tell her. Instead, she did all these to make it up to Jenna. She really was an experienced one.

She had said it before. She hoped that one day in the suture, Jenna would forgive the descendants of the Richards family for her sake.

This was well played on Vivian's part. There would never be any elders who passed down valuable inheritances to outsiders, who sided with those who are not of their own blood. However, such valuable properties were not given to her grandchildren but Jenna, who had no biological relations with the Richards family. In the eyes of outsiders, she was so lucky to be adored by Vivian. Perhaps, they would think that she was a deceiving woman, who manipulated Vivian into giving her these inheritance rights.

Only Jenna knew how this betrayal hurt.

She had to admit, Vivian really succeeded in moving her by doing so. Ever since Paul informed her about this, she did not question Norton nor did she thought of plotting revenge against him. Instead, she resorted to escape from reality, not once asking about the truth. This was because she thought of Vivian.

"So, you're planning to release him on bail, right?" she halted in her steps and asked coldly. There was no trace of expression on her face that he could read.

"Jenna, why do you think so?" Hansen asked in surprise.

"What else can I think? Norton is your brother, a descendant of the Richards family. You have the responsibility to protect him and bail him out of jail if you have to. Even if he really killed my father, you can't really bring justice to my family and I. I knew this a long time ago, how powerful families like yours work. Since my father's accident, I have seen and experienced a lot. Turns out, those people whom my father had taken care of, his subordinates, his friends, and colleagues, hid from us as if we had the plague. They feared that I would borrow money from them and trouble them. My relatives took advantage of this to snatch away all of my father's assets. My mother and I could only be chased away. My so-called husband from an elite family was just standing on the sidelines, watching me fumble in torture. Today, I finally know the murderer of my father. But, I can't take my revenge because the d*mned criminal is my ex-husband's brother, Vivian's grandson. I have

received the favor of the Richards family; I am no more than a dog who accepted my master's help and kindness and I can't bite back. I can only forgive Norton Richards, otherwise, I'll be criticized, I'll be shamed. I knew this a long time ago. I had known this long ago." Jenna stepped forward against the wind. She had an ugly, sad smile, and her tears slowly streamed down.

Hansen's eyes widened and his face turned pale.

"Jenna, why do you think this way? Although Norton is my family, I promised you before that I would never protect anyone who had wronged you. If I had this thought, I would never investigate the case in the first place. This case is related to Richards Group, it will put my company and the Richards family at a disadvantage. Even so, why did I carry on with the investigation? I want nothing else than to bring you the justice that you deserve. You have to trust me," Hansen explained anxiously. As he looked at Jenna's pale face, it was as if a sharp knife stabbed into his heart; the pain was unbearable. Ashamed and in a panic, he explained intently, "I will not bail Norton out of jail. Why should I? If he had committed a crime, he must bear the consequences of the law. No one should protect him from his wrongdoings. This is the punishment he deserved. I admit that I didn't know the truth before. I have hurt you but I had never thought of mocking you and leaving you in pain."

He reached out and took her hand. It was icy-cold that his heart shivered.

"Jenna, forgive me. If I had known that your father had a car accident, everything would be different. Apart from apologizing, I really don't know what else to do for you to forgive me. I did not mean what I did; I did not hurt you on purpose. Let me make it up to you, please? Please put yourself in my shoes too. When you came to me, why didn't you tell me everything? We were still married at that time and I had the responsibility to go through this with you, but why were you not willing to tell me?"

"Tell you everything?" Jenna sneered again, she was utterly disappointed with his entitled and self- righteous behavior. "Why should I tell you? Since we got married, have you treated me as your

wife? Have you seen my parents as your family? No, you have never. Not only did you not treat them with respect and honor, but you also didn't even visit them. With such a horrible marriage between us, why should I tell you? For you to humiliate me over and over?"

Hansen's face became paler. He bit his lips but was unable to utter a single word.

The sky was gloomy and the north wind began to rage once more. The sun had just appeared for a while before it was covered up by the clouds.

Jenna walked forward, tears filling her eyes. She bit her lips hard and said nothing more.

Hansen's followed behind her with heavy footsteps, staying mute.

Every step she took, he followed suit.

When she stopped, he stopped.

"Don't follow me," Jenna said coldly.

"No, I want to," Hansen stubbornly responded. NôvelDrama.Org content.

She ignored him and walked directly to the parking lot.

Hansen's car was not parked there with hers.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

She opened the door and got into the car before starting the engine, speeding ahead.

In just a short while.

When she no longer saw Hansen's jeep trailing behind her, she finally loosened up.

She was not dumb to meet Norton together with him. She would never trust him.

She drove straight before turning around and headed directly to the Public Security Department of A city.

Hansen was sitting in his jeep and watched as her car disappeared in sight. He did not follow her, fearing that she would get emotional and end up in a car accident.

"Mr. Jordan, I'm here to see Norton Richards," Jenna came to the Criminal Division and told Jordan her demands.

Jordan was busy discussing a case with his deputies. When he heard her voice, he raised his head in surprise.

"You are..."

"I am Javon Murphy's daughter," she stated with a calm expression.

"Oh." Jordan understood immediately. He observed her with sharp eyes. "Your father's case is still in the process of investigating. Although Norton Richards is found to be involved, it would be sloppy to draw a conclusion with the current evidence we have. I hope you will stay calm and control your feelings when you see him."

"I understand," she had no choice but to agree, her gaze dark and unreadable.

There were only simple metal tables and seats in the visiting room. Aside from those objects, it was empty, terrifyingly silent.

Norton's handsome face was haggard when he came out with his hands bounded. Beard grew out on his chin and his face was dirty.

When his eyes landed on Jenna who looked at him coldly in the room, a bright light instantly ignited in his eyes. It spoke of excitement, expectations, surprise, and guilt.

"Jenna, you came to see me!" His face was glowing with excitement and he basically squealed.

"No, I didn't come to see you." Jenna had no expression on her face, cutting off his hope mercilessly. She simply said, "Why should I see my father's murderer?"

"I..." The light in his eyes faded as he was utterly ashamed.

"I'm here to ask you, why did you plan for my father's murder? Why?" her eyes were reddened as she questioned in a stern voice.

"Jenna, I..." Norton panicked in terror, deep guilt in his eyes. He wanted to reach out to take her hand, only to realize that it was impossible. The cold iron handcuffs were stuck on his hands. The sound of metal clashing against each other struck his heart and all the guilt spilled out. He begged with a trembling voice, "Jenna, hear me explain. It's not, it's not what you think it is. I had never thought of killing your father."

"Is that so?" she sneered. "But, he is dead because of you, and my mother is still in the hospital. Didn't you kill him? What terrible thing have they done to you? Why did you do such a cruel thing?"

The suppressed anger and pain in Jenna burst out. Failing to keep her emotions in check, she asked angrily, her eyes full of tears. She could only see the blood on her father's face and her mother losing her legs. If she could, she really wanted to kill Norton with her bare hands at this instant.

However, another aged voice yelled at her inwardly, "Jenna, please forgive my grandchildren in the future. Please do it for my sake."

Vivian's voice kept ringing in her mind and it went straight to the bottom of her heart.

Jenna was trembling uncontrollably. She hugged her head and cried out in pain.

In the monitoring room, Jordan was standing silently in front of the surveillance screen, his eyes fixated on Norton's face.

Hansen also sat in front of the screen, his body all tensed up. He was watching the scene nervously without blinking.

Charles heard that Hansen had come, therefore he came to accompany him personally.

The sight of Jenna kneeling down and crying immediately spiked Hansen's nerves. He bolted up from his seat and was about to rush into the visiting room.

"Mr. Richards, please stay calm. Only at this time can we really see Norton Richards' true intentions. Let's wait first. Don't worry, there are police officers outside the room, we will make sure that he won't harm Miss Murphy," Jordan held him back and calmly explained.

Hansen eventually settled down.

In fact, he had been following Jenna in secret as he was worried that she would get into an accident. He did not expect her to be so alert. She noticed his car and seemed very unstable as her car swayed from side to side. In order not to agitate her further, he had to hide, then use the GPS to track down her car. He found that she went to the Public Security Department.

She did not let him bring her but came here alone. She did not trust him.

Hansen only smiled bitterly.
