Chapter 54


    "Hansen, I''m really relieved that you two can move forward together." Grandma Richards continued


    to say happily, but the light in her eyes was exposed little by little, "Hansen, I have read some


    rumors about you two not being on good terms in the newspaper. I called you here today to tell you


    that although it''s normal that as a public figure, you''ll have more rumors than the other people, it''s


    not good to have too many rumors. It threatens the stability of your family and the reputation of the


    Richards family. I think you should know better than grandma."


    Grandma Richards''s gaze slowly turned to Hansen. "I know that you''ve been ming me for so


    many years. But child, three years have passed. Are you sensible now? Do you understand my


    intentions?"


    Hansen was getting more and more confused, and even his expression was a little stiff.


    Three years ago, when Jenna went to the United States, his grandma knew about it, but she didn''t


    oppose it openly. She didn''t even ask him about it and didn''t force him to bring her back. She just


    asked the people at home to send gifts to Javon''s family during the holidays, which cated Javon


    and the others, and preventing them from putting the me on her.


    He thought that his grandma would have already realized her wrong decision and would not force


    them anymore. However, what she said today was not the case at all!


    Grandma had been staying in the house all day long. Although it looked like she didn''t care about


    whatever was happening outside, she knew some things better than anyone else.


    He didn''t understand why she didn''t stop Jenna from going to the United States at that time, and for


    so many years. If she really wanted them to be happy, it was not wise for them to be apart for such


    a long time. She could havemanded him to bring Jenna back, but she didn''t.


    Now, he could not understand Grandma Richards'' words at all.


    "My child, it''s been three years. Have you grown up?" Grandma Richards held his hand. She knew


    that her grandson was shrewd in his career, but he was childish in love. She did not ask too much


    from him, but by forcing him to marry Jenna, she had done her duty.


    Many years ago, when she first saw Jenna who was still a little girl, she believed that Jenna was the


    most suitable one for her grandson, Hansen. She thought this was a beautiful thing, but she did not


    expect everything to be derailed from the n. Everything was beyond her imagination. For so


    many years, this was the pain she had hidden in her heart! Whenever she thought of this, she


    would feel sad.


    After all, a couple had to stay with each other for the rest of their lives. How would they be able to


    cherish their rtionship without going through all kinds of hardships? They had to rely on


    themselves to walk the path of life ahead. No one could help them.


    But at this moment, everything was still unclear. Her grandson was still muddled.


    "Grandma, I don''t understand what you mean." Hansen started panicking. Did he grow up? Was


    grandma saying that he was not being mature and sensible enough? If not, what else did she


    mean?


    "Hansen, I have heard a lot of bad rumors about you and Jenna. You are a man. I will ask you


    today, and I hope you can tell me the truth," Grandma Richards'' eyes were bright, and she asked


    word by word.


    Hansen became flustered.


    "Grandma, I..." He stammered. It seemed that grandma must have gotten the news of his divorce


    with Jenna. Otherwise, she would not have asked so.


    "I guess I won''t be able to see my granddaughter-inw in the future." Sure enough, Grandma


    Richards''s face was full of disappointment. She muttered to herself, "It seems that everything is


    true. Jenna, you have already given up on my grandson. Are you going to choose someone else?


    You promised me in front of your father!"


    Heartache was showing on Grandma Richards''s face, and her murky eyes were sparkling.


    Hansen was frightened when he heard this. Originally, he wanted to hide it from her, but now the


    media was too involved. He even thought of the possibility that some malicious people could have


    deliberately disclosed the news to her.


    Norton Richards''s face surfaced before his eyes. This cousin, who had always been hostile to him,


    was always jealous of him. He would not have passed on such an opportunity to bring Hansen


    down.


    Thinking of this, Hansen was furious. Norton had circled around Jenna like a fly. If he hadn''t taken


    away Jenna''s virginity, he wouldn''t have disliked Jenna so much.


    The hatred in his heart was stirred up one after another!


    "Grandma, actually, I have divorced Jenna." Hansen could not suppress the anger in his heart. His


    mind was burning, and he did not want to hide it deliberately. He admitted in a low voice, "Grandma,


    please understand my difficulties. I really can''t stand it anymore. Have you ever thought about my


    feelings? I am a man, and that woman really doesn''t deserve to be my wife. She is always flirting


    with other men. You know what is written in the newspaper. She is now flirting with Rayan Whalen,


    the biggestpetitor of our family. Our Richards Family should never ept such a woman, but


    you asked me to marry her. Grandma, it''s unfair to me. I''ve been tormented for years."


    With an animated expression, Hansen took his grandma''s hand. While he was criticizing Jenna, the


    uneasiness in his heart was infinitely increased. He didn''t know why he lost control of his emotions


    again. It seemed that as long as he mentioned Jenna, his emotions would be out of control. His


    calm heart would be disturbed, and even his behavior would be inexplicable.


    Perhaps he didn''t think so in his heart, but he was not willing to admit it, and he didn''t want to admit


    defeat now. Otherwise, he would be looked down upon by his grandmother. His years of


    persistence would be in vain.


    "Hansen, you really haven''t grown up yet." Grandma Richards shook her head and sighed, "Rayan


    knows what a treasure she is and knows how to appreciate her. Three years have passed, and yet


    you are still the same. You even became more confused."


    "No, Grandma, although I divorced her, I won''t allow her to leave mypany. I understand what


    you mean." Hansen was busy expressing his stand, "And she has promised to visit you on your


    birthday."

    Looking at Hansen trying to exin himself, Grandma Richards smiled bitterly in her heart.


    "Hansen, you don''t understand me at all. I''m already old, what''s the point of seeing someone else''s


    wife? What I want to see is my granddaughter-inw. Let me tell you, Hansen, I will only recognize


    Jenna as my granddaughter- in-w. Even if you marry someone else, I won''t acknowledge her."


    Grandma Richards sighed in her heart and said seriously, "Of course, you don''t have to consider my


    feelings to marry a woman you like. However, except for Jenna, I will not allow another woman to


    stay in Richards Manor. Your grandpa passed the manor to me, and this is an immutable fact. I will


    definitely have a say in this."


    Grandma Richards did not like being disobeyed. Especially regarding Hansen''s marriage, she was


    extremely stubborn. She meant what she said. Hansen firmly believed it. He could not help but feel


    a headache. "Grandma, it has already happened. We are divorced. Please put yourself in my


    shoes. Think of the life I have been through these years. Grandma, I used to listen to you. I hope


    you can consider my feelings this time." Hansen felt ufortable. He was in a mess and could not


    figure it out. He just pleaded bleakly.


    "That''s because you brought it upon yourself!" Grandma Richards''s eyes gleamed brightly, but her


    words were sharp.


    "Hansen, I''m worried that you won''t be able to get her heart for the rest of your life!" She looked at


    his nk expression and her heart was in pain. She was so worried that he would refuse her


    choice, but he would never understand her painstaking efforts and could not see her intentions.


    Four years ago, the marriage caused Hansen to gradually drift away from Grandma Richards. He


    no longer came to see her often, and her outstanding grandson became more and more indifferent


    to her. This made her very sad, but she insisted on it. After all, it was for his own good!


    She thought that one day he would understand her painstaking efforts. At least he would


    understand after this press conference, but she did not get the news that she had been waiting for.


    Instead, what came was the earth-shattering truth.


    Instead of paying attention to Jenna, he went further away. Was her arrangement wrong? For such


    a long time in her life, she felt the bleakness and helplessness of reality for the first time.


    "Hansen, I don''t have much time left. I don''t expect anything else. You''re an adult; you can choose


    your own path. I really can''t do anything about it. How about this?" Grandma Richards shook her


    hands and calmed her mind. Then she became serious and said, "From now on, you can choose


    your own marriage. I won''t interfere with it anymore. But I''ll tell you that I have chosen Jenna and


    I''m satisfied with her. I can''t do anything if you don''t like her. However, only her name will be


    recorded in the family tree. This will never change. She''s the granddaughter-inw that I recognize.


    If you marry someone else, she can''t stay in Richards Manor. In this family, no matter who gets


    married, they will need to seek my agreement. Richards Manor belongs to the Richards family


    ancestors, and in here, my words are final. I won''t care about anything outside the manor."


    Hansen was stunned. He understood the meaning of these words.


    If that was the case, even if the woman he married was his legal wife, she would not be recognized


    in the family. Jenna would be the only wife that was recognized in the family history.


    That was to say, apart from his children with Jenna, no one could possess the inheritance of the


    Richards Manor. Although Hansen had created countless wealth for himself and Richards Manor


    was just a property, it was still an important possession of the Richards family. How could he


    pretend that it did not exist!


    In his palm was Grandma Richards'' slightly cold hand, but his heart was colder. His heart was


    already in a mess.


    "Grandma, I..." His nose was stuffy and his voice was muffled. He said slowly, "Grandma, I''ve grown


    up. I shouldn''t have made you worry. I''ll handle my own affairs. If I offend you because of this,


    please forgive me."


    He lowered his head like a child who had done something wrong, but his heart was filled with


    complicated emotions.


    "Hansen, you can leave now. No matter what decision you make, I won''t interfere with it. Don''t


    worry. Except for Richards Manor, I will still give you your share of inheritance, but I just can''t pass


    Richards Manor to you. This is the ancestral property of the Richards family, and it''s also my only


    request. I think you would understand it. I hope you won''t be in a difficult position if I do this. Go on,


    my child. Do what you want to do."


    Hansen stood up nkly, feeling depressed.
