Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen)

Chapter 243

Upon hearing this, Hansen smiled and said, "Of course, Honey. I'm listening." ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Jenna spoke after giving a deep thought, "Hansen, there's someone in Richards Manor who wants to harm Vivian."

"What!" Hansen was dumbstruck by Jenna's words. He immediately put his hand on her forehead and asked, "Jenna, did you have a nightmare last night?"

He looked at her suspiciously.

"No, you fool." Jenna was clearly annoyed. She then pulled his blanket away and slapped him on the butt. "I'm being dead serious."

"Ouch, it hurts. Even if you did want to murder your husband, can you please not hit so hard?" Hansen hissed and howled.

It has been several days since this minor injury, did it still hurt like that? Jenna just couldn't believe him.

She had tried to tell him about it these few days but she got distracted by him and somehow forgotten about it. Finally, when she recalled that the situation was indeed serious, she thought that it was better to tell him sooner than later.

"I was serious. Get up." Jenna frowned.

"Okay, okay. Let's talk." Hansen stretched lazily and Jenna helped him to get dressed as usual.

Then, she began to blurt out what happened that day.

Hansen listened carefully and remained silent as a strike of cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Jenna, I get the story now. Don't spread the news for the moment," he said calmly after a while.

"I understand." Jenna stared at him.

His face and chin were scratched by her. There were no bloodstains on the bitemarks but the new skin formed underneath was pale, thus there were little patches of uneven skin tones on his face. Fortunately, the injuries healed very quickly because of the ointments she applied to him the past few days.

"What's wrong? Are you still feeling distressed?" Hansen was very pleased with the way Jenna treated his wounds every day. She was so nervous about the wounds on his face and handled them gently. He felt that his injury was totally worth it.

"Distressed because of you? You're such a dreamer. It's just that the New Year banquet is around the corner and I am afraid that something will go wrong, there will be others that misunderstand you." After Jenna washed her hands, she prepared warm water to help Hansen wash his face. Then, she took out the ointment and applied it on him.

"Huh, liar." Hansen pouted as he lay on his back, enjoying the gentle movement of her hand on his face. He put his arms around her waist and whispered, "Jenna, you have to be careful in the manor. There are things that you shouldn't be too serious about. Let me deal with it."

As he said that, his dark eyes gleamed.

Now that Norton has been released on bail, there was no way to find out the truth of Javon's death. Truthfully, he was very worried about Jenna's safety. If she did not resign and simply stayed with Richards Group, he would not be worried. However, it turned out that she had promised Vivian to be the head of Richards Manor. By doing this, she was out of his sight, which made him really uneasy.

"Jenna, Norton is at home now. He was only released on bail but that doesn't mean your father's case is over. There will be more incidents in the future. It was against Norton's will to go to jail, hence you have to be careful. Do you understand?" Hansen reminded her.

Jenna looked at his concerned face and nodded, having mixed feelings at that instant.

"Hansen, Hansen." Marissa's voice came from the corridor.

Jenna took a few steps back in reflex.

Every morning for these past few days, Marissa would come to take care of Trevor. Jenna didn't want to meet her, therefore she purposely avoided their meeting. But, it seemed that she got to know about Hansen's injury and rushed to the hospital that day. Jenna was sure that she heard panic and anxiety in Marissa's voice.

Hansen stood up calmly and pulled Jenna into his arms. He gave her a reassuring smile. "Don't worry, I'm here."

As soon as the glass door slid open, Marissa stormed in.

"Son, I heard that you were injured and hospitalized. Is this true? What the hell happened?" Marissa walked in and saw Hansen holding Jenna in his arms. They looked very affectionate but she just didn't care. She started walking towards Hansen and grabbed his hand, asking anxiously.

"Mom, who told you this?" Hansen furrowed his eyebrows. No other soul knew about his injuries and being hospitalized except for him and Jenna. Where did Marissa hear this from?

"It was..." Marissa paused abruptly. When Aria told her about this earlier that day, she was instructed that Hansen should not know the truth, hence she hesitated.

"Mom, don't make a fuss about everything. They're just rumors," Hansen said with a dull expression on his face.

"I'm making a fuss? Hansen, are you kidding me? Do I not care about you? You never tell me anything. You are really pissing me off with your attitude." Marissa's face was red with anger. "Your father is still in the hospital and you are the only one that I have. Please, nothing should be happening to you."

"Mom, I'm really fine. Look, I'm standing perfectly in front of you!" Hansen saw that his mother was saddened by the incident and comforted her, "Mom, you should go and take care of Dad."

"Auntie, Hansen is fine, don't worry." Jenna saw Marissa getting anxious. She understood her feelings and offered an explanation.

Marissa looked at Jenna. Hansen only focused on this woman. No matter what, he would rather tell everything to Jenna than his own mother. Feeling down, she sighed before saying, "I know what you're thinking. Don't think I don't know what you did to Hansen. I'm warning you, if something bad happens to him, I will never forgive you."

Jenna’s heart sank when she heard this and lowered her head. Marissa has always despised her, she really didn't know how to get along with her but she had her dignity as well. Marissa never respected her but she would not purposely try to please her as she still has her own pride.

"Mom, you're not making any sense. Jenna has been taking care of me. You should be thanking her. How can you break her heart by saying this? It's too unfair." Hansen was very upset and his tone turned dark.

Marissa's face turned pale as she looked at Hansen. "Son, you were seduced by her, it's obvious that you're not thinking clearly."

"Mom, what are you talking about? I have seen much more clearer and now I finally understand Jenna. Dad is now recovering from his illness, all thanks to Jenna. Why are you still being so oblivious?" He squeezed Jenna’s hand and slowly said, "Mom, I think it's time I tell you this. Let’s go visit Jenna's mother. Her ward is just next to Dad's ward. Jenna's father is dead and Norton was the cause of it. Our family owes them."

Hansen's words were inevitably hurtful. Marissa could never understand Jenna. He knew that in his heart that because Vivian liked Jenna, Marissa did not have the best relationship with Vivian.

At this instant, it was Marissa's turn to be shocked.

"Hansen, what are you talking about? Javon is dead? Sara is in the hospital?"

Up till this moment, Marissa didn't know what happened to Jenna's family. She only knew that Javon did not become the head of the Finance Department and the position had been taken by Norton. The rest was unknown to her.

"Mom, because of your bias and prejudice against Jenna, I've kept lots of things from you. But since you will know these things sooner or later, it's better for me to tell you now."

Hansen took both Jenna's and Marissa's hands in his as they walked towards Sara's ward.

"Mom, Sara doesn't know that Jenna and I had divorced. Thus, bear in mind to not slip that out. It's only a matter of time that we will be remarried." Hansen suddenly remembered and reminded Marissa in a low voice when they approached Sara's ward.

Marissa was still shocked by Javon's death, hence she hesitantly agreed.

"Marissa, you are here." Sara saw Marissa, Hansen, and Jenna come in and greeted her with a smile. Sara actually didn't have a lot of affection for this family-in-law of hers. For so many years, they never really talked to each other and every time when they did, Marissa was arrogant. It was

evident that she looked down on her. Once, she was very worried that her daughter would be bullied in their family. However, Jenna has never complained for so many years, therefore she let go of this uneasy feeling in her heart. Seeing Marissa this day, for her daughter's sake, she gave her a polite smile.

"And this is..." Marissa asked in surprise when she saw the wheelchair set at the side. She sensed that things were not going well.

Sara looked at her expression and instantly sensed that Marissa probably didn't know what happened in their family.

She just smiled faintly.

"Bailey, please give up your seat to Marissa," Sara said to Aunt Lee who was standing next to her, then turned around and said to Marissa, "Marissa, forgive me, I'm not in the best position to move now."

Marissa's expression slowly changed. She approached Sara, reaching out until she touched her knees but she soon realized that the area where her thighs were empty. Then, her hands shivered and she was trembling all over.

"Sara, I'm sorry. I didn't know these things happened. No one mentioned them to our family. We are both in-laws and I shall do my best to help you." Marissa's face was pale as she spoke.

Hansen saw Marissa's face and the corner of his mouth instantly curled up slightly. Of course, he understood his mother. Regardless of the cold front she put on, she was still kind in nature. This was why he chose to tell her the truth.

"Mom, this matter has been deliberately concealed, not many people know about this," he explained.

At this time, Sara also smiled lightly, her expression calm as ever.
