Chapter 469


    Liya said this with tears in her eyes and began another heartfelt confession. "I''ve said that as long


    as I''m with you, I''m willing to do anything for you. The premise is that you have to marry me publicly


    as your second wife. Don''t worry, I love you, and I''ll never hurt you and Jenna. I''ll also stand side by


    side with you in dealing with Zoe and getting rid of her from the business world. Hansen, will you


    agree to this?"


    Her words were true and she spoke naturally without concealing anything. Hansen knew that she


    was opening up and was also mentioning the conditions.


    She would do anything for him, stand by him, with the condition that he would have to take her as


    his second wife, in a fair and legal manner like Frederic.


    Jenna''s tearful and sorrowful face shed across Hansen''s mind, as well as Jerry''s clear and


    innocent eyes, hidden with worry. All of a sudden, his heart throbbed with pain.


    How could he do something like that? How could he bring this woman back to Richards Manor? He


    already had no choice but to be in am ambiguous rtionship with her. If he really had to take her


    as his second wife, it would be better for Jenna, who had such a strong sense of pride, to go to jail.


    Go to jail? When he thought of these three words, his heart trembled. To have such a beautiful


    woman go to jail just because she was maliciously framed? It was just too despicable.


    He mmed his fist heavily on the table, gritting his teeth.


    "Hansen, what''s wrong with you?" Seeing the anger in his eyes, Liya was secretly pleased. She


    knew that her words had worked their way into his heart and that he was struggling. However, she


    was not in a hurry at the moment. So, she asked, with her face full of concern for him.


    "You can obtain the evidence used to frame Jenna?" He stared at her, with her red eyes, and asked,


    word for word.


    "Yes." Liya blinked her eyes and nodded solemnly. "Hansen, don''t worry. I will treat Jenna like my


    sister and the mistress of Richards Manor. I can only cosy up to her. I don''t want her to go to jail as


    well. She''s so gorgeous, and she''s wholeheartedly thinking of ourpany. It''s impossible for her


    to do such a thing. As long as you agree to my request, I''ll definitely think of something to obtain the


    evidence used to frame her and clear up her false usations."


    She said it very confidently that one had to take her word for it.


    Hansen looked at Liya with a fierce gaze. Looking at how she spoke confidently and firmly, the


    waves in his heart swirled and rolled.


    Now that there was solid evidence and Zoe had it with her, Liya was undoubtedly a good


    candidate, in order to attack and win against her. Thinking of how he had been intimate with her for


    the past few days, wasn''t that the reason he had done so?


    He had long suspected how Liya could enter the Richards Group. He had gotten John to investigate


    and was already fully aware of the situation. Now that Liya had personally exposed herself today


    and that it matched the results of his investigation, it meant that she wasn''t lying. She was only


    trying to get him to marry her and hadn''t done anything that would harm the Richards Group. She


    was speaking about conditions and negotiations. To put it bluntly, she was giving him a chance not


    to let Jenna go to jail.


    If he couldn''t make use of this opportunity, he might not get another simr chance in the future.


    Since she was able to negotiate with him so confidently, it meant that she was certain that she


    believed in herself.


    Now that the menace engulfing the Richards


    Group was drawing nearer and nearer, he had to find a breakthrough.


    In other words, if he could save Jenna, so what if he were to agree with Liya''s condition? It was just


    a matter of status, which was better than having Jenna in the cold prison. In addition, the woman he


    loved was Jenna. If Liya insisted on marrying him, it was her business if he neglected her.


    Everything would be alright, as long as he loved Jenna and gave her all his love.


    Now, that Sergio was forcing him and acting aggressive, and he could not find a breakthrough.


    It was better to promise her and take one step forward, followed by the other. To hold on to the


    present and keep Jenna safe was his priority. As for the future, he would act ording to the


    situation.


    "Well, then. I promise you." He mmed his fist on the table and said, word for word, "However,


    before I take you as my second wife, I want to get the evidence that had been used to frame Jenna


    first."


    "Alright, that''s no problem at all." Liya''s eyes sparkled, nodding in a hurry as she snuggled into his


    chest. "When I get the evidence, I''ll deliver it to you and we''ll immediately register for our marriage


    in Ennd."


    She spoke softly in a matter-of-fact manner and pressed her face against his chest.


    Hansen stood up straight, allowing Liya to cling her body onto his. His body was as stiff as a stone


    pir.


    Her words made it seem as if she was making a deal. No matter how much he thought about it,


    Hansen felt disgusted.


    "Let''s go back. We still have to work tomorrow." Soon, his cold voice rang, as he pushed her away


    lightly and strode outside.Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.


    Liya was left behind by him. For a moment, she was absent-minded, but her face brightened up in


    no time, and the joy in her heart surged like a tidal wave.


    Hansen had already agreed to marry her.


    She was going to be ady of honor soon. Countless jewelry and a vast amount of wealth were


    awaiting her arrival. Her life would be so glorious. From then on, she would live an extravagant life,


    and enjoy an infinite amount of glory.


    As long as Hansen married her in Ennd or in any other country, she would be his wife in name,


    and all his properties would be hers. Even if they really went their own ways in the future, the


    compensation alone was a considerable sum, let alone sharing a portion of his properties. She had


    already consulted awyer about all this.


    She would soon be one of the world''s richestdies.


    Although she wouldn''t have a good reputation as she was not his legal wife, it was a whole lot better


    compared to those famous celebrities in the entertainment industry. She believed that there were


    many women in the entertainment industry who wanted to approach bachelors like Hansen. Not to


    mention being his second wife, many women were even willing to sacrifice themselves to be his


    secret lover.


    Liya didn''t expect such a good thing to be bestowed upon her. She really had to thank Zoe since


    she owed it all to her, now that she could marry into a wealthy family like Cindere.


    Thinking of Zoe, she snorted, with a cold smile on her face.


    From now on, she needed to help Hansen see through Zoe''s schemes and not let her seed. If


    Zoe seeded, she would only lose her wealth if she married Hansen in the future.


    When she walked out, Hansen had already driven away, leaving her alone.


    Knowing that he was in a bad mood, she wasn''t angry. There would be plenty of opportunities for


    her to get along with him in the future. If he couldn''t ept it now, he would be able to do so one


    day, and he would love her so much until he couldn''t extricate himself from her. She was confident.


    On a quiet night, the moonlight seeped in through the branches outside the window, casting the


    bedroom with a nched and foggy atmosphere.


    After he left Liya, Hansen returned home early.


    With Liya''s words, his heart calmed and settled down.


    Now that Liya had approached him with that purpose in mind, what she said would be true. That


    was to say, Jenna would not be in danger for the time being.


    After he''d washed up, he stood by the bed and bent down to look at Jenna, feeling a sense of guilt


    and unease.


    She didn''t sleep well as she was frowning, and there was a suffering expression on her face.


    Jerry was sleeping in her embrace, with a satisfied smile on his tender face.


    Jenna held Jerry tightly in her arms as he slept soundly. His pink and tender face made him look


    adorable.


    Such a peaceful and warm scene made Hansen''s heart surge with happiness and sweetness.


    He wanted to protect this happiness that belonged to him even by any means necessary, and no


    one could destroy it.


    He gently lifted her hand and picked up Jerry, who was in her arms. Looking at his tender face, he


    gave him a gentle kiss and his heart was filled with happiness.


    He carried Jerry to the nursery in the next room and handed him over to the nanny. He then


    returned to his room and climbed onto the bed.


    He heard crying sounds as if someone was sobbing while having a nightmare. He had his heart in


    his throat. Looking down, in the moonlight, he saw that Jenna''s eyes were closed, but she was


    crying in her sleep.


    His heart felt as if it had been stabbed by a sharp knife, with blood oozing out of it.


    He stretched out his hands and gently held her in his arms, hugging her tightly. The pain in his heart


    was uncontroble. If she knew that he wanted to marry Liya and bring her into this family, what


    would she do?


    Frankly speaking, he had no idea. If Liya were to threaten him with the evidence, what should he


    do?


    He didn''t care. He wanted to keep Jenna and Jerry safe. He wanted aplete family. This was his


    happiness for a lifetime. He had to do everything he could to strive for it. As for everything else,


    nothing canpare to that.


    By doing so, he could at least give Jerry aplete family.


    Thinking of this, he thought of the pain Jenna would feel when she discovered the news, and his


    heart was filled with iparable pity and pain.


    To have to make such a choice, his pain would be no less than hers.


    As if she had smelled his familiar scent, Jenna stretched out her arms and wrapped them tightly


    around his waist. She buried her face in his chest, looking like a child who depended on her family.


    Happiness surged in Hansen''s heart, but it was also heavy at the same time.


    He slowlyy down with her in his arms.


    As long as her soft and delicate body touched his, he would feel excited and tempted at once, but


    for now, he only wanted to hold her and sleep quietly.


    Hey down with her in his arms for a while. Just as he was about to fall asleep, he heard her soft


    voice, saying, "Hansen."


    He opened his eyes, not sure if Jenna had already woken up, but there was no response.


    "Hansen, tell me, where have you been tonight?" Jenna suddenly lifted her head from his arms and


    looked at him with her bright, beautiful eyes, that were shining brightly in the dark night.


    Hansen''s body stiffened, and he didn''t answer her question.


    "Did you go out with Liya?" She asked in a low voice, "Tell me, were you with that woman?"


    Hansen was feeling extremelyplicated.


    Jenna had regained her rationality and had thought about it for the night. She decided to talk to him


    openly and honestly. They could not go on like that, as it would drive her crazy.


    Women were like that. Once they had fallen in love with a man, they would easily go crazy over him.
