Chapter 236


    "It''s so beautiful!" Jenna cried out in surprise. She took the rose with both hands and saw the red


    rose petals shining under the bright sun. There seemed to be dewdrops on it. She went to smell the


    roses and the fragrance was intoxicating.


    "Thank you Rayan, it smells so good." Jenna was surrounded by a refreshing floral scent, and her


    whole body and mind became rxed as if that day''s stress had disappeared.


    "Let''s go have dinner to celebrate your birthday. I''ll apany you to visit your mother in the


    afternoon." Rayan gracefully gestured for her to hop onto the ride, aforting smile on his face.


    As far as he was concerned, as long as he could see Jenna'' s smile, he would be satisfied. Until


    this moment, she was the only woman who could make his heart skip a beat. The car she designed


    once impressed him deeply, hence he was very happy to be friends with such a woman.


    "This..." Holding the roses, she nced toward the gate of Richards Manor, a trace of mncholy


    shing in her eyes.


    The scene where Hansen went crazy the day before was still vivid in her mind.


    For some reason, at this time, she would still think of Hansen, she thought of that b*stard''s furious


    eyes; she was even a little scared.


    "Let''s go. It''s just dinner." Rayan seemed to notice her worries. He couldn''t help feeling


    disappointed but he still urged with a soft tone.


    Jenna smiled embarrassingly. Obviously, her concerns were written all across her face. They were


    just going for dinner. Look, even Rayan didn''t think much about it, why was she making a big deal


    out of it? Jenna questioned herself.


    This was selfish of her. Furthermore, he took the initiative toe here and celebrate her birthday.


    Beside him, would anyone else celebrate her birthday? She supposed not. If she rejected this


    invitation, she would probably spend her 26th birthday in a dested manner that day. She also


    didn''t want her birthday to pass by bleakly. She turned around and nced at the cold gate of the


    manor. Lightly biting her red lips, she then smiled. "Thank you in advance, Rayan."


    She got into the Rolls-Royce RV along with the roses.


    She was not Aria. No one would think of celebrating her birthday, let alone in this manor where


    everyone deemed her insignificant.


    "This br*t, she isn''t picking up my calls." Hansen kept away the phone with some annoyance. He


    called Jenna several times but her phone had been turned off. It was close to noon, therefore he


    knew that she was busy working in Ink Garden. It happened that his calls failed to reach Ink Garden


    all day. After thinking about it, he packed his things and went downstairs.


    That day was Jenna''s birthday; he remembered it by heart.


    After so many years of marriage, he really never gave her a decent birthday celebration. He felt


    guilty in his heart. This time, he wanted to surprise her with a luxurious birthday banquet. This was


    what he owed her. He also wanted to apologize for his impulsive actions that day.


    When his car was approaching the entrance of the Richards Manor, his gaze focused on an


    expensive Rolls- Royce parked at the entrance.

    A handsome man was talking andughing with a woman. The woman was hugging arge


    bouquet of bright roses and she was smiling brightly. She walked toward the car door and the man


    opened the door for her.


    He was taken aback.


    Who was in front of his manor?


    For a while, he realized that this luxury car looked familiar.


    As he thought about it, he saw that the woman had bent over and gotten into the Rolls-Royce with


    the bundle of roses. Soon, the Rolls- Royce started and slowly drove away.


    He was stunned.


    Soon, his face was pale.


    Even if he couldn''t recall whose luxury car that was, he recognized that woman.


    That woman was Jenna.


    Right. That car belonged to Rayan.


    That handsome man must be Rayan. Nobody in A city had this kind of prideful and overpowering


    aura except for Rayan.


    Hansen recently learned that Rayan was in A city.


    It was a nine out of ten chance that it was indeed Rayan.


    A sharp light shed in Hansen''s eyes as if about to spit fire; his face was gloomy. His hands that


    were holding the steering wheel were clenched tight and he gritted his teeth.


    That br*t, he thought. They just quarreled over this and had a fight a few days ago. Yet, she had


    forgotten about it already. She let Rayane to the manor''s entrance so openly.


    It was too much! Who did Jenna see him as?


    Hansen drove up quickly, rolled down the window, and faced the guard.


    "Who was here just now?" he asked with a nk expression on his face.


    It just happened that the previous guard was off duty. The guard who just came in was a middle-


    aged man. He stammered when he saw Hansen.


    Hansen was annoyed and drove in. Before he could stop in the parking lot, he got in another car


    and drove toward Green Jade Garden.


    "Aunt E, where''s the Young Madam?" As soon as he walked in, he called Aunt E.


    Aunt E heard Hansen''s voice and hurriedly walked out. With a smile on her face, she softly


    replied, "Master, Young Madam has note back from work today in Ink Garden."


    "Is that so?" Hansen asked with a cold smile. "What happened to Ink Garden? My calls couldn''t get


    through."


    "Oh about that, Miss Sabrina has called the technicians to repair it just a moment ago. She said it


    was probably damaged because of the heavy snow a few days ago but it''s repaired now," Aunt E


    quickly replied.


    Hansen squinted his eyes, walked to the wall and picked up the phone to dial a number.


    "I''m Hansen, looking for Jenna," he said briefly.


    "Yes, Young Master... I''m afraid the Young Madam has gone out," someone on the line responded


    cautiously.


    D*mn it. Hansen mmed the phone and walked toward the second floor.


    Nelson and Haward saw Hansen walking up with a dark and scary expression. After learning their


    lesson, they didn''t dare to stop him and they directly regarded him as invisible.


    Hansen walked to Jenna''s bedroom. Because the door was smashed the day before and they


    hadn''t had time to fix it, he walked straight in.


    Sure enough, Jenna''s phone was still on the bedside table and it seemed that she had forgotten to


    take it.


    At this instant, he was sure that the man and woman who were in front of the gate was Jenna and


    Rayan. It must be them. He was sure.


    Just thinking about it, he was instantly drowned in jealousy. His face flushed and anger was boiling


    in him.


    That woman. She dared to go against him!


    He took out his mobile phone.


    "John, check where Rayan is now and tell me immediately," Hansen gave a briefmand and


    hung up the phone.


    He took off his suit and sat down on the bed, sulking.


    He gently rubbed his temples; his head was aching. The most terrible thing was that his whole body


    hurt whenever he was angry.


    He would knock some sense into Jenna.


    How dare she cheat on him, d*mn it!


    He thought of Rayan''s dashing looks and his signature smile, and he groaned. He could not wait to


    punch the nasty face that seduced his woman.


    What was more, Rayan tantly came to call on Jenna right in front of Richards Manor. Did they


    respect him?


    How could Hansen let another man seduce his woman?


    The more he thought about it, the more unstable his emotions became as the me of jealousy


    burned inside him.


    Looking around the room, he remembered the fierce battle here that day. Only then did he calm


    down.


    After a while, John''s call came.


    "Mr. Richards, Rayan is dining in the VIP private room of Waldo Hotel near the beach." John quickly


    told Hansen the address.


    "Got it," Hansen replied in a deep voice, hung up and rushed downstairs.


    The waves crashed against the coastline, the surrounding quiet and calming.


    The sky- blue wallpaper was iid with various beautiful murals, which harmoniously blended the


    tranquility and passion of the sky and the earth, the sea and the shore.


    The scarlet liquid in the wine ss exuded a faint aroma.


    "Jen,e, let''s toast to our friendship," Rayan said with a gentle toast, smiling.


    "Rayan, I can''t drink. I''ll have tea instead." Jenna gave him an apologetic smile.


    "Okay, it doesn''t matter." Rayan was easygoing and generous.


    He didn''t chug down red wine like others but enjoyed every sip of it elegantly. The sweetness of red


    wine pretty much matched his personality.


    Jenna took the teacup on the table and drank


    "Would you like a drink?" Rayan asked.


    "No need; I''ll just have some water." Jenna''s stomach still felt ufortable. These days, she


    would vomit whenever she ate. Even so, she was hungry and had to continue eating. This situation


    lasted for days, therefore she didn''t dare to eat, afraid that Rayan would discover her secret if she


    threw up in front of him.


    But, Rayan was a little anxious seeing that she didn''t eat much.


    "Jen, is the food not to your liking?" Rayan asked thoughtfully, his eyes full of worry.


    "No, no, I''m just not hungry." Jenna shook her head.


    "How can you not be hungry after all the work? Look at your face. You look severely malnourished.


    Let''s get you a steak. I remember that is your favorite dish," he finished with sympathy. He


    beckoned to the waiter without seeking her opinion. She really got skinnier, hence she knew that


    she had no say in this.


    Jenna couldn''t bear to reject his kindness, therefore she no longer stopped him.


    After a while, a medium- well steak was brought over and ced in front of Jenna.


    "Hurry up and eat it while it''s hot, it won''t taste good when it''s cold," Rayan told her warmly.


    Jenna was helpless. Although she didn''t want to eat, she had to eat a little bit, otherwise, it would be


    strange.


    It should be fine to have some.


    She was indeed starving.


    These days, her stomach was always bloated. She guessed that it may have been caused by fetal


    development.


    The steak in front of her was steaming. Its color was so vibrant and attractive, and the intoxicating


    aroma made her stomach grumble.


    Jenna picked up the utensils and started to cut the steak.


    Slowly, she put a small piece of the steak into her mouth and chewed. Fortunately, she didn''t feel


    nauseous.


    She continued indulging the delicious food.
