Chapter 67
"You..." Norton was annoyed and infuriated. His face was livid and full of disgust.
"Hmph!" Aria snorted and said, "Norton, people like you don''t have the right to dislike me. Don''t
think that I don''t know what you have done. Let me tell you. I''m well aware of it."
Norton''s body stiffened and his expression changed. A cold light shed in his eyes and he asked in
a cold voice, "What do you mean?"
Aria took her hand off his shoulder and sat upright. She said with a smirk, "What is done by night
appears by day."
"What are you trying to say?" Norton stood up with his sullen face as he shouted.
"Hey, I didn''t say anything. What can I say? Why are you feeling guilty?" Aria waved her hand and
smiled maliciously.
"Tell me, what the h*ll are you doing here?" Norton was relieved but he was already very impatient.
Aria took off her sunsses, raised her eyebrows, and smiled charmingly, "Mr. Norton, why are you
so agitated? Take a seat. Sit down and I''ll talk slowly. It''ll be good for both me and you."
Helplessly, Norton had no choice but to sit down in suspicion. His body was still stiff.
"Tell me, my future sister-inw," said Norton with a mocking smirk on his face. Hearing the word
"sister-inw", Aria''s face turned pale and she was no longer smiling.
"Norton, I''m telling you clearly right now that Hansen can only marry me and I will be his only wife.
You have to help me," Aria said firmly, word for word, without any smile on her face.
Norton was stunned for a moment and said with a sinister smile, "That''s strange. He''s already
divorced Jenna as you wish, and your parents have met a few days ago. Who else will he marry if
he doesn''t marry you?"
There was a trace of uneasiness, nervousness, and anger on Aria''s face, and her eyes had a sharp
gaze.
"But, I''ve heard that Grandma Richards will only acknowledge Jenna. Even if I marry Hansen, I
wouldn''t be acknowledged as one of the family members," she said with hatred and resentment.
"I see," Norton let out a sigh of relief andughed. He thought to himself, "If such a person like you
were epted into our family, it would be a disgrace to us. It seems that Grandma is wise enough
to think of this." He shrugged and said indifferently, "It is not a big deal, isn''t it? Why do you care
about this? Isn''t it good enough that he''s yourwful husband and you''re his wife? Acknowledgment
as our family member is just an illusory thing. What''s the big deal? You don''t lose anything by not
being in it."
When Aria saw Norton''s carefree expression, she could not help but feel anxious.
"No, Grandma must acknowledge me. Even if I am the legal wife, I will feel ashamed. I am the
daughter of the A City Mayor McAdams, but I am not acknowledged by the family. I will even lose
the right to inherit Richards Manor. I can''t let this happen. My father will be embarrassed if this
happens," Aria solemnly stated that she was determined to get it.
Norton sneered in his heart. For a woman like Aria, even he wouldn''t acknowledge her as a
member of the Richards'' family, let alone his grandmother. Now, it was even uncertain whether
Hansen would marry her or not. Since Jenna came back, Hansen seemed to be obsessed with
Jenna and had grown cold towards Aria. Only a fool like Hansen would agree to marry her. As for
Norton, he would not even consider taking Aria as his concubine.
When Hansen looked at Jenna, there was something burning in his eyes. Norton was a man as
well. Of course, he knew exactly what it was intuitively.
"Don''t get ahead of yourself," Norton scornfully said, "It''s still up to a woman to keep a man''s heart. I
can''t do anything about these things. Of course, if Hansen promised to marry you, he''s already
giving you a lot of face. You''d better not push your luck. Otherwise, if you end up with nothing, don''t
me me for not warning you."

"What do you mean?" Although Norton''s words were unpleasant to the ear, they were exactly what
Aria''s concerns were. Her face started to darken.
Aria was no match for Jenna at all. Norton despised Aria even more and said with a cold face, "Aria,
you shouldn''t be too greedy."
"Norton," Aria bristled at Norton''s dismissive attitude, "Don''t be too full of yourself. We had a deal.
You get Jenna and I get Hansen. We have to help each other. You are mocking me now. Stop
pretending. Let me tell you. Ever since Jenna came back, Hansen''s attitude towards her was
obvious. Jenna had always loved Hansen. You''re nothing to her. Don''t think that you will be fine if I
don''t get Hansen. He will definitely go after Jenna. In the end, you will end up with nothing too."
Norton had already expected Aria''s words. Since he saw Jenna''s attitude towards him, he knew the
truth. However, he would not give up. Even if he had to marry her as a concubine, he would make
her follow him willingly. What Aria said was right. Even if Jenna did not love Hansen, she would
never fall in love with him.
In order to make Jennapletely give up on Hansen ande to him willingly, it would not be
easy without Aria''s help. Thinking of that, his expression changed, "Tell me, what do you want from
me?"
"Norton, I heard rumors that Grandma Richards was going to give Jenna the inheritance of Richards
Manor that belonged to Hansen. Think about it, Grandma Richards was thinking of giving the
inheritance to an outsider but not a Richards. It just doesn''t make any sense," Aria narrowed her
almond-shaped eyes and said in a low voice unwillingly.
"You know a lot of gossip," Norton was shocked. He had never heard that, but Aria, an outsider,
knew about his Grandma''s decision first. She was indeed scheming, despicable, and malicious.
That woman only wanted to be the Young Madam of the Richards'' family. She was more vain and
possessive than anyone else. Although Hansen was rich and powerful, she was not even willing to
give up on the assets. She was nothing like Jenna. If it weren''t for the fact that he loved Jenna, he
would prefer Jenna as his sister- in-w as meeting such an insatiable woman would not even be
good for himter. He asked Aria, "So, what do you want to do?"
"Norton, cooperate with me and let me stay in Richards Manor," Ariamanded forcefully, with no
room for discussion.
"Do you really think that I am that capable?" Nortonughed, "My father doesn''t even have the right
to change Grandma''s decision, let alone me. Moreover, you are marrying Hansen, not me. What
can I do?"
"I don''t care. Since I want to be Richards'' family''s Young Madam, I must live in Richards Manor and
be acknowledged as part of the family. You have to cooperate with me. I have my own way," she
stood up and said coldly, "Norton, I know all the things you have done. If you don''t cooperate with
me, you will meet your end miserably."
At that point, sheughed and picked up her handbag on the sofa. She gave Norton a flying kiss
flirtatiously and walked out of the office.
Norton was shocked and panicked. He stood there for a while, unable to get his head back on
straight.
What on earth did she want to do? What did she know about what he had done?
Aria walked downstairs arrogantly. Hmph, Norton, don''t think you can go back on your words. She
came to his office from time to time just to give him warnings so that he would feel scared! She was
driving her Lamborghini towards the International Kinsey Center when she was informed by her
secretary, Minnie, that Hansen had returned to the office. She hadn''t seen him for several days after
the press conference. Ever since Jenna reappeared in front of him, he had grown impatient with her
and his patience with her was diminishing by the day. His burning gaze had never left Jenna. Even
when he was setting up the venue for the press conference, he was favoring her. She was very
upset and afraid of losing Hansen.
She did not believe that she would lose. She had to win.
In the office on the 88th floor of International Kinsey Center.
"Mr. Richards, it''s been taken care of," Alvin walked into the office and reported.
"Good," Hansen had a serious look on his face, and his gaze was as sharp as a sword. "Alvin, find
out the reason why Jenna wanted that car and what is the story behind it. I want to know the answer
as soon as possible."
Why did Jenna not care about her own life and rush recklessly toward a car that was about to be
washed away by the river? Hansen had many questions in his mind. He now believed that she did
not love money but cars instead. However, it was illogical that she would regard the car as being
more important than her own life.
Her actions were too bizarre. Hansen had reason to believe that there must be some secrets that
he didn''t know about. He could no longer let it go. There was something hidden from him, and it was
just under his nose. Moreover, it had something to do with the Richards Group! He had a bad
feeling about it!
Alvin nodded and left quickly.
As soon as he walked out, he came face to face with Aria. However, he did not even look at her and
walked straight past her.
"Hansen, who was that person? How could he be so rude?" Aria was very displeased. She came in
and yelled at Hansen. Hansen was staring at theputer and his fingers were busy tapping on the
keyboard.
"Aria, why did youe in here without knocking on the door?" He frowned and his face was full of
displeasure. The woman in front of him was so unruly. She thought that she could do whatever she
wanted just because he trusted her. Hansen disliked it and found her attitude annoying.
"Hansen, we are getting married soon. Why do we have to be so formal?" Aria came over and
gently put her hands on his neck and rested her breasts on his body. Her voice was coquettish and
seductive.
