Chapter 424


    Jenna was soon pulled into his arms. She stuck her face against his chest and listened to his calm


    and rhythmic heartbeat. After knowing that he did not intend to make her worried, she felt relieved.


    Her face flushed.


    "You aren''t allowed to do this again in the future. No matter what you do, you must call me to let me


    know that you''re okay." Jenna pressed her face against his chest and said relentlessly.


    "Don''t worry, honey, I will." He was secretly overjoyed by her concern for him. Although she had


    been way too worried, he was d to know that she cared.


    He carried her to the sofa and hugged her tightly. She stayed in his arms and was as gentle as a


    kitten, soft and adorable.


    Luqman''s face and words suddenly shed across Hansen''s mind. His heart sank.


    Now that he had Jenna and Jerry, his attitude towards life had bepletely different. He had


    a lot to consider. He wanted to protect the interests of the Richards Group, but he also wanted to


    protect the woman in his arms and Jerry. He wanted to give them a blissful life. So, he didn''t want to


    get involved in any sort of trouble.


    However, Luqman''s words made him a little uneasy.


    Although he was a scheming politician, he hadn''t spoken his words casually.


    He mentioned that Hansen had already been dragged into this battle. Was it really so?


    However, why didn''t he sense anything abnormal? Perhaps the enemies were hidden too well.


    No matter what, he couldn''t let his guard down too easily now.


    "Hansen, have you eaten yet?" Jenna raised her head in his arms and saw his deeply furrowed


    brows. Her heart tightened. There was a kind of inexplicable worry on his handsome face. Jenna


    was used to reading his expressions and she felt an indescribable feeling of anxiety and unease.


    Hansen was lost in his thoughts. So, he did not respond to Jenna''s question.


    "Hansen, what''s wrong? Did something happen?" She asked uneasily, sitting upright and observing


    his face.


    Hearing her concerned voice, Hansen came to his senses and met her gaze. He put his hands on


    her shoulders, smiled, and replied softly, "I''m fine."


    Was there really nothing wrong? Jenna did not believe him. She only looked at him, with her eyes


    filled with anxiety. "Hansen, can you tell me where you went today?"


    Hansen paused for a moment. His eyes were bright and a charming smile appeared on his face.


    "I haven''t gone anywhere. I just had to meet a client." He acted calm and didn''t want her to worry


    about it.


    A meeting with a client? His secretary didn''t have any such meeting on his schedule. Obviously, he


    was lying and didn''t want her to know about it.


    Jenna knew better than anyone else that since he didn''t want her to know, it was useless for her to


    continue asking. She knew that she couldn''t pressure him too much. So, she scrambled out of his


    arms.


    "Since you were working, I''m sure you haven''t eaten. I cooked a few dishes for you today. Let me


    heat them up for you." After she finished her words, she walked towards the kitchen.


    Indeed, Hansen had not eaten anything today. His conversation with Luqman had made him


    completely lose his appetite. It was only when Jenna brought him a bowl of hot soup did he begin to


    feel hungry. He picked up his bowl and started wolfing down his food.


    "Slow down. Don''t eat so hurriedly," she said softly as she picked up food for him and put them on


    his te.


    As Hansen drank the hot soup, he said emotionally, "Jenna, no matter how good the outside food is,


    it can never bepared to your home-cooked food. My wife''s cooking is the best."


    When Jenna heard this, she smiled sweetly.


    "Then, you shoulde back and eat more often. Don''t eat outside. If you have meetings to attend


    to, just eat a little." Jenna sat next to him and reminded him very seriously. In reality, she would


    rather have him stay with her everyday. She didn''t want him to disappear all day just because he


    was stressing himself out over work.


    If it weren''t up to them to protect the family business, she would much prefer living a frugal and


    ordinary life. As long as they could be together everyday and love each other as they grew old, she


    didn''t mind living a simple life. She didn''t want to be busy all the time. Although their life was rich


    and filled with pleasure, it wasn''t the life she wanted.


    "Alright, I will try my best." Hansen nodded his head and agreed. He stretched out an arm to hug


    her and give her a small kiss on her tiny face.


    "Eww, your mouth is oily. I hate it." Jennaughed


    as she whacked him.


    Hansen giggled.


    After the meal, he ordered Larry to clean up, and they walked upstairs with their arms wrapped


    around each other''s waists.


    "Take a break first. I''ll run the bath for you." After going upstairs, Jenna pressed Hansen down onto


    the sofa. She walked into the bathroom, turned on the tap, and got his clothes ready.


    The night was getting darker. The people who were strolling around Richards Manor had all


    returned to their vis. The sound of insects chirping could be heard as the night sky dimmed.


    As soon as Jennay down and snuggled into the quilt, Hansen finished his bath and followed her


    by climbing onto the bed.


    "Go and dry your hair. Sleeping with wet hair will give you headaches." Jenna felt that this was a


    bad habit. So, she urged him.


    "Don''t worry. It''s still a while before I go to bed." Hansen giggled and climbed into the sheets. He


    immediately drew close to her body, and her thin, revealing nightdress clung to her soft and delicate


    body. The thin bed sheets suddenly became warmer after Hansen climbed in. It was getting so hot


    that Jenna couldn''t stand it anymore.


    He nted his warm lips on hers. His fiery skin seemed to burn her with every touch. Soon, they


    were entangled together into a ball and he took over her...


    That night, the two of them made love. It was gentle and sweet. The two of them could really feel


    the love for the other. The joy they felt was intoxicating and they didn''t want to part even for a


    moment. Throughout the night, they held onto each other passionately as they slept.


    In the spacious and bright office, the ambercolored curtains cast a gloomy shadow on Sergio''s face.


    A picture of Hansen and Luqman sitting and talking happily was disyed on Sergio''s phone. He


    tightened his grip as he gritted his teeth, and his knuckles even started turning blue.


    "Hansen, I didn''t expect your actually dared to support Luqman at a time like this. You know very


    well that he''s one of my family''s opponents, yet you still support him so openly. Aren''t you sowing


    discord? What do you take me for? What do you take the Wood family for? So much for your


    principles of separating politics and business. It turned out that you just wanted to go against my


    family and embarrass us. This is a clear threat. F*cking disgraceful." Sergio''s eyes were burning


    with fury as these words burst out from his lips.


    "If I don''t teach you a lesson, you will never learn," he said fiercely as he took out his cell phone to


    make a call.


    "Hansen Richards, I can only me you for picking the wrong side of the battle. Let me tell you. No


    one in this world will be able to stop the Xanthe family from moving forward." He thought to himself.


    In the underground parking lot of the International Kinsey Center, Hansen had just got out of a


    Hummer and strode forward inrge steps.


    A thin, dark shadow shed in front of him.


    "Who is it?" Hansen''s eyes shed as he bellowed.


    All text ? N?velD(r)a''ma.Org.


    The dark shadow moved into a corner at the side, but there was no sound.


    Hansen furrowed his brows as he quickly stepped forward.


    "Who are you?" He quickly sprinted to the corner, and surely enough, there was a dark shadow


    curled up there. Since it was slightly dark, he couldn''t see the person clearly.


    The dark shadow stood shivering and with her face buried in her chest. She did not look up or


    answer Hansen''s question.


    Confused, Hansen stretched out a hand to lift the person up and drag her out.


    "It hurts. Hansen, it''s me." Hansen had just dragged the person''s arm and took a few steps forward


    when she cried out in grief.


    After a few steps, the lighting became clearer. Only then did Hansen get a good look. It was Liya.


    "It''s you again?" He frowned. When he reached out to grab her earlier, he felt as if the arm was


    particrly weak. He felt that it was a woman. So, he reduced the strength in his hand. Otherwise,


    he might have pulled her so hard that she would have fallen t onto the floor.


    "What in the world are you trying to do?" This time, Hansen''s expression was not friendly. She was


    here again. Was she waiting for him? What was her intention? Looking at her ambiguous


    appearance, it was really suspicious.


    "Hansen, I don''t mean any harm. I just wanted to see you." The woman shook her head


    desperately, hugging her body with her arms around her shoulders, and spoke weakly. Her limpid


    eyes were filled with mist, and she looked at him pitifully.


    "Who are you? Do I know you? Why are you always following me?" When he was stopped by her


    that day, Hansen already had doubts in his heart. Once again, he was still being followed by her like


    this. He found it extremely odd. This time, he must find out what her reasons were. When had he


    ever met a woman like her?


    "Hansen, I''m Liya. I just want to see you from afar. I have admired you very much since I was


    young. Now that I''ve seen you be the master of Richards Manor, as well as the president of


    Richards Group, I''m really happy for you. There are many who admire your prestige. Believe me, I


    mean no harm." Liya''s eyes were full of adoration, and her big almond-shaped eyes looked


    innocent.


    Hansen''s brows furrowed even more tightly. Since she was young? It seemed that this woman


    really was an old friend. She should be someone he knew. However, why didn''t he have any


    memories of her? His memory wasn''t that bad. Nevertheless, right then, he could not recall anything


    about her.


    Hebed through his memories from the past, but in the end, he still shook his head.


    Since this woman imed that she knew him, he had to make things clear even if he didn''t want to.


    He immediately asked, "Which department do you work in at Richards Group?"
