Chapter 45


    "Young Madam, if you don''te back, Aria McAdams will rece you." Aunt E was suddenly


    slightly nervous as she said, "That woman is scheming. She managed to brainwash Madam now,


    even the Young Master listens to her. I heard that Madam is preparing for their marriage. She wants


    Hansen to divorce you so that he can marry Aria. Their only fear is that the Old Madam will object. If


    she did, it would be tough for them to get married. However, Aria is determined to marry into the


    Richards family. She even told Madam that she loves Hansen a lot and she doesn''t mind that he


    has a wife. She is willing to be his second wife." She continued, "Her words touched Madam''s heart


    and Madam promised her that even if the Old Madam objects, she will let her marry the Young


    Master and stay in the Richards Manor. Young Madam, don''t be silly,e home. While the Old


    Madam is still alive, she will definitely support you. Many young women dream to be the wife of the


    handsome Young Master. Think about it, Aria is Mayor McAdams'' daughter but she''s willing to be


    his second wife. You should take advantage of the fact that the Old Madam still has power and a


    say in the family. Moreover, the Old Madam fancies you, don''t waste this opportunity."


    Aunt E was nagging, and Jenna felt bitter but she couldn''t say anything. She just listened and


    responded vaguely. Then, she walked out of the ward. Aunt E grew up in the Richards'' Manor.


    She saw with her own eyes how the men in the rich and powerful Richards family took second


    wives. Hansen''s grandfather himself had a second wife. ude''s family was the descendant of the


    second wife, Madam ncy.


    However, Trevor and his wife had a good rtionship. Marissa kept a close eye on Trevor so they


    did not encounter such a problem. Moreover, Trevor was naturally a loyal person. He did not want to


    see Marissa sad, so he never thought of marrying a second wife.


    However, ude married a second wife. She tantly moved into the family home. In fact, it was


    normal for men from wealthy families to openly marry a second wife in A city.


    Although the monogamy system was preferred, for the wealthy families, they did not care much.


    Everyone knew it well and was used to it. Furthermore, both the men and the women were willing to


    do it. Some women knew clearly that the men were married and had official wives, but still willingly


    married them.


    It was too much of a temptation to marry into a wealthy family. As long as the second wife gave birth


    to a son, they would have no financial worries for the rest of their lives. They would live a good life


    as wealthy families weremonly generous to the second wives.


    For example, in today''s entertainment industry, many female celebrities marry into wealthy families


    as second wives. They still acted happily and proudly. What''s more, the wives all got along well with


    each other.


    Aria was the daughter of Mayor McAdams. It would be ridiculous to say that she was willing to


    marry into the Richards family as a second wife.


    Not to mention, she was an arrogant woman, always looking down on most people. As Mayor


    McAdams''s daughter, it would be an embarrassment for her to be married as a second wife.


    The fact that Aria told Marissa how she was willing to be a second wife was just to gain her favor.


    Jennay in the ward for a whole day silently. She did not even take a step out of the ward.


    Hansen never came back.


    She fell asleep early and had different dreams. When she woke up again, it was already daytime.


    After packing up, she notified the nurses and was discharged from the hospital earlier than


    expected.


    She didn''t go anywhere. She just took a taxi to the Collier Manor.


    Since Hansen would suspect that she might betray thepany, she did not go anywhere. She


    would stay in the apartment so he could rest assured.


    In the past few days, she had already thought of a perfect design for a new car. She wanted to draw


    it out quickly.


    Back at the apartment, she turned on theputer and began to work hard. She quickly got into


    the zone.


    In the afternoon, she went out to buy some groceries and then came back to cook for herself.


    She hadn''t cooked for a long time. Today, she wanted to cook a few delicious dishes for herself.


    The big kitchen was clean. Hansen had never cooked. That was right, how could a man like him


    cook? What''s more, he could easily find whatever he wanted to eat.


    Jenna washed the vegetables and prepared some pasta.


    She deliberately turned off her mobile phone to concentrate on cooking.


    In the evening, Hansen hurried back.


    As soon as he entered the door, he froze at the fragrant smell of food for a moment.


    The kitchen was connected to the living room. Hansen took a few steps and saw the woman who


    was busy in the kitchen. She was wearing an apron and her hair was casually hanging on her


    shoulders. Her hands were cutting vegetables skillfully, while she took nces from time to time at


    the soup that was boiling in the pot.


    He couldn''t get his eyes off her. Last night, he worked overtime to produce the invitations for the


    famous financial groups to attend the press conference for the new productunch. He had to


    personally make some calls in order to show his respect. He was so busy that he had no time to go


    to the hospital. When he was done with work, he was so tired that he fell asleep on the sofa.


    After finishing his work this afternoon, he thought of Jenna who was in the hospital. He rushed to


    the hospital but the nurses told him that she had already been discharged from the hospital.


    At that time, he was in a panic. Yesterday, he treated her rudely in his father''s ward. Would she get


    into trouble after being emotionally triggered likest time? After all, he didn''t visit herst night.


    He quickly called her but her phone was switched off.


    In a hurry, he searched everywhere. He even called Hannah, but he was scolded by her. Even


    Hannah had no idea where Jenna was.


    He was rendered helpless and came to the apartment with a ray of hope. He didn''t think she would


    return to the apartment. Based on their confrontation these few days, he would expect her to go


    somewhere he could not find her. Perhaps, she would have gone to Rayan Whalen forfort.


    He sullenly came back and saw something unexpected. Jenna had already returned to the


    apartment and was cooking in the kitchen.

    There was a trace of joy in his heart arousing.


    Leaning against the door, he looked at her skillfully cutting vegetables and cooking, but his mood


    was inexplicablyplicated.


    Jenna was a nobledy from a famous family, but she didn''t have the delicate and reserved manner


    that a typicaldy from a rich family would have. She had never put on airs and had a calm


    personality. Except towards him, she was modest and gentle to everyone. She never bullied others


    nor was she conceited.


    He thought that maybe his grandma liked this about her and wanted him to marry her! The pot was


    steaming, indicating that the steamed fish was ready to be served. She turned off the fire and


    opened the lid as she wanted to take out the fish.


    "Be careful." Hansen saw that she didn''t put anything on her hand before taking out the fish from


    the pot. The fish was steaming hot, she would definitely be scalded. He screamed in a hurry.


    Sure enough, when Jenna''s hand touched the side of the te, she felt the heat and quickly jerked


    her hand away.


    "Look, you almost got scalded." Hansen hurried forward and grabbed her hand. Seeing a small


    blister on her delicate fingertips, he couldn''t help nagging at her.


    Jenna raised her head in surprise, only to see that Hansen had actuallye back.


    "It''s nothing." She smiled at him and quickly ran cold tap water on her finger.


    "Why did you get discharged in advance? You''re bold enough to discharge yourself without my


    consent." Hansen deliberately put on a poker face. He thought of how worried he was when she hid


    herself and cried alone, and wondered if she would fall ill again like thest time.


    "I''m fine now. I don''t need to stay in the hospital. Besides, I still have work to do. I''ve been down for


    a few days," Jenna answered indifferently. Then she raised her head and smiled sweetly. "By the


    way, I guess you haven''t eaten yet. Let''s eat together. I''ve made your favorite dishes."


    Hansen was stunned. She smiled brightly and her teeth were showing. She didn''t look like she was


    unhappy. It was as if she did not remember him scolding and shouting at her in Trevor''s ward the


    day before.


    He couldn''t understand this woman. She would burst into tears and cry sadly when nothing had


    happened. However, she was being scolded yesterday but she was acting indifferently now. She


    really was a freak!


    Perhaps it was because of guilt! After all, she was the culprit who caused his father to be like


    that.


    He was relieved!


    Jenna quickly ced the dishes on the table. Hansen took a look and it was really all his favorite


    dishes. She even prepared his favorite mushroom soup.


    "Come, let''s have some red wine." Hansen happened to be hungry and was so excited that he


    opened a bottle of expensive red wine.


    "Okay." Jenna sat down and smiled, generously agreeing.


    "Come, eat this. This is your favorite steamed fish." Jenna picked up a piece of fish and put it on his


    te.


    "How do you know that I like to eat this fish?" Hansen asked with burning eyes, staring at her.


    Jenna froze a little before she smiled, "I heard from the workers at home."


    "I see." Hansen''s eyes dimmed, and he raised his ss, "Come, Jenna. If I remember correctly, this


    should be our first meal together. A toast to you."


    "Sure." Jenna raised her ss slightly, but she felt bitter inside. They had been married for four


    years, but this was the first time they had eaten together alone.


    It used to be so cold and distant between them.


    They were probably the weirdest couple in the world!


    "Jenna, I''m sorry. I might have hurt you in my dad''s ward yesterday. I was emotional and couldn''t


    control myself. I promise that this will never happen again. Like I said, forget everything in the past.


    Come, cheers." Hansen''s eyes were a little reddish. He was ming himself, then he downed the


    ss of wine.


    "It''s okay, let bygones be bygones," she shook her head and finished her ss of wine too.


    "Come, eat some." Hansen brought a piece of chicken to Jenna''s mouth. Jenna opened her mouth


    generously. He smiled slightly and put it into her mouth lightly.


    The twoughed at the same time, the atmosphere was fun and harmonious.


    For the first time, Hansen felt at home in this apartment.


    "I have something to say." The two spoke at almost the same time, then froze at the same time,


    laughing almost simultaneously. "You speak first," he said.


    "You should go first." Jenna wanted to hear what he had to say.
