Chapter 515


    Upon seeing the changes on Liya''s expression, Jenna said solemnly, "Liya, since you''ve received


    your higher education, you should understand that Vivian has done her best for you. You have no


    blood rtion with the Richards family, while your mother was just ude''s mistress and nothing


    more. Also, the fact that the Richards family weed your mother to stay in Richards Manor was


    purely out of kindness, as your mother has her own family to begin with. You know how much


    money your Dad tried to extort from Richards Manor in the past, right? Do you really think Vivian


    kicking you and your mother out of the manor was really a big sin? Even if your mother once


    conceived ude''s child, Vivian could justpensate her, but she did more than that. Do you still


    think that Richards Manor and Vivian owe you and your mother?"


    Jenna''s voice was a little cold as she warned Liya seriously.


    "What''s most important for a woman is to know how to love herself and act with propriety. Only with


    dignified actions and good character can one win over everyone''s respect. In the past, you lived


    with your Mom in Richards Manor for quite some time. Have you really never thought of why your


    mother wasn''t able to get everyone''s respect?" Even then, she still hoped that she would be able to


    resolve Liya''s misunderstanding towards Richards Manor and make here back to her senses.


    She also hoped that Liya would take the proper path and abandon her goal of bing the second


    wife. However, after Liya learnt of everything, she decided that she would never want any men other


    than Hansen.


    In fact, she had to face Oscar''s torture and her father''s forced marriage proposals back home. She


    had no way out. Only Richards Manor could bring her happiness.


    Humans were all selfish, weren''t they?


    She knew that her decision would hurt Jenna, but at that moment, she had no choice but to brace


    herself and go on.


    "Jenna, I understand what you meant, but I love Hansen. I have fallen in love with him ever since I


    was young. I only want to protect him and am willing to do anything for him." In front of Vivian, Liya


    sobbed and continued. "Don''t worry, Jenna. I won''t harm your interests. I''ll respect you and treat


    you as my real sister. Also, I''ll abide by any rules of Richards Manor. This ce has been my only


    home since I was young. If I can stay by Hansen''s side, then I can die without any regrets."


    As she said that, she burst into tears. She sobbed while wiping her tears with her hand.


    Jenna tightened her grip on her clothes as she lifted her head to look at Vivian.


    Jenna couldn''t see what Vivian was thinking about through her wrinkled face, as she might''ve


    completely forgotten about the past. Right then, her mind would only be sometimes clear and at


    times blurry. Perhaps she couldn''t remember anything anymore, or perhaps she might''ve


    completely forgotten who the crying woman in front of her was.


    After Jenna closed her eyes for a while, she held on to Vivian''s hand.


    "Liya, since you like Hansen, my husband, so much, then it''s fine. I''ll be willing to do anything as


    long as it benefits Hansen. Today, I promise you, in front of Grandma, that Hansen will marry you in


    a grand manner. I''ll also personally host the wedding for you and Hansen. I just hope that you can


    keep your promise that you''ll only love Hansen wholeheartedly from now on."


    After a while, Jenna opened her eyes and said firmly.


    "Is that true? Jenna." Upon hearing that, Liya''s face revealed a pleasantly surprised expression, and


    she asked in disbelief.


    "Of course. How can I lie in front of Grandma?" Jenna replied firmly, "But Liya, you have to swear in


    front of Grandma that you''ll love Hansen forever, always be loyal to him, and think of him and


    Richards Manor with your entire heart. Also, swear that you won''t do any outrageous acts."


    Liya was stunned for a while. Upon understanding Jenna''s intention, she was delighted, as she


    hurriedly knelt down and said loudly, "Please don''t worry, Grandma, Jenna. I''ll definitely love


    Hansen with all my heart in the future and am willing to do anything for him. I''ll also protect Richards


    Manor, just like Jenna."


    Jenna felt the rope that was tying her heart getting tighter and tighter, to the point that she had


    difficulty breathing.


    She steadied her breathing, but her heart was still in great pain.


    "Alright, Liya. Remember what you''ve said in front of Grandma and what I''ve told you today.


    Richards Manor and Vivian don''t owe you anything. They are your benefactors. You should


    understand the fact that you''re able to get to this point in your life because of Richards Manor. I


    hope you''ll repay the kindness you''ve received, and not have any selfish motives." Jenna heaved a


    long sigh of relief after she spoke. She felt as if she had said something stuffy that had been


    guing her heart for a long time as she actually felt rxed in an instant.


    "Don''t worry, Jenna, I will." Liya nodded in a hurry. She then said as she blinked her bright eyes,


    "Thank you, Jenna, for your generosity."


    "No, there''s one more thing. You pushed Jerry into the pool today, which, in my opinion, is


    unforgivable, but, on ount of Grandma''s wishes, I''ll forgive you this one time. If something like


    this happens in the future again, I''ll definitely not let you off." Jenna''s face became very stern as she


    rebuked her.


    Liya was frightened. Nodding, she said, "Don''t worry, Jenna, I really didn''t mean to do that today. I''ll


    treat Jerry as my own son in the future. Please forgive me, Jenna."


    As she said that, the rims of her eyes turned red.


    "It''s good as long as you remember it." Jenna smiled coldly. "I love Hansen. That''s why I''m willing to


    do anything that can benefit him. So, I''m doing it for my own sake I guess. Also, I hope that you can


    make up for my shorings towards Hansen in the future. Don''t worry. As long as you can


    behave properly and live on peacefully, I won''t make things difficult for you."

    Speaking of that, she turned her head and said, "Liya, go out first. Wait for me outside."


    Liya agreed and left.


    A stream of tears rolled down from Jenna''s eyes.


    "Grandma, I''ve already helped you fulfil your wish. Don''t worry, I know what to do." After Liya left,


    Jenna whispered in Vivian''s ear.


    Vivian''s eyes were fixed on her, with her hand holding onto her hand tightly as she moved her lips,


    but she could not utter aplete sentence.


    "No, my child." Jenna could faintly hear her saying those few words in a trembling voice. It seemed


    that she could also hear Vivian saying, "Thank you." All in all, she did not quite understand what


    Vivian was trying to convey.


    Nevertheless, since Grandma was willing to tell Jenna her regrets, she would be willing to bear that


    responsibility and fulfill her regrets.


    That was her duty as her granddaughter-inw.


    Trevor wanted her to ept reality, and Hansen wanted her to do the same as well. Even Paul and


    Irvin also thought so. What could she do? If she persisted, it would only make others think that she


    was narrow-minded.


    It was only due to her love for Hansen that she would persist. It was also due to the sense of


    responsibility she felt towards the family that she chose to ept reality.


    She silently turned around, but her hand was grabbed by Vivian.


    She turned around to look at Vivian. Tears were welling up in her eyes. Her face that was full of


    wrinkles panted weakly, as she held onto her hand tightly.


    "Grandma, I''ll leave first," Jenna said to her softly and gently pulled her hand away.


    She was worried that if she stayed any longer, she would cry out loud.


    She turned around and walked out of Vivian''s bedroom as her heart pulsed with pain.


    Liya was waiting for her outside.


    "Let''s go," Jenna said to her tly and walked towards the outside.


    Liya followed closely behind.


    The moment they arrived in Green Jade Garden, they met Hansen.


    Hansen had just walked out of the living room of Green Jade Garden. He was wearing a ck silk


    top, a pair of casual shorts, and a pair of slippers. He was dressed up in afortable and casual


    manner.


    Nheless, his noble temperament wasn''t diminished by his clothes. He was standing there


    quietly, and the aura that was emanating from his body was so elegant and delicate that people


    couldn''t help looking at him.


    The three of them were all stunned.


    All of them stood still.


    All of Hansen''s gaze fell on Jenna''s face. From beginning to end, he did not even nce at Liya,


    who was standing beside Jenna.


    The sunshine shone in through theyers of leaves and was cast on her hair, eyebrows, and


    eyshes, dying her skin golden, bit by bit.


    She stood in the shadow of the tree, and the rays of sunshine elogated her shadow.


    Hansen looked at her with aplicated gaze.


    "Hansen." Liya couldn''t stand the silence. She broke the silence first by speaking shyly.


    Hansen''s gaze remained fixed on Jenna''s face without moving.


    "Oh, Hansen, from today onwards, I''m going to let Liya move into Richards Manor. What do you


    think?" Jenna avoided Hansen''s burning gaze. She took a step forward and asked with a seemingly


    unhurried smile.


    Move in? Hansen''s gaze which was on Jenna deepened upon hearing that.


    "Is this your decision, or did you hear of some rumors?" He looked into her eyes and asked in an


    enigmatic tone.


    "It''s my decision," Jenna replied with certainty as she lowered her head.


    Hansen''s gaze deepened even further when he looked into her eyes as if he wanted to see through


    her.


    "By the way, since you''re here, I''ll leave Liya to you. You can arrange where she''s going to live as


    you like. I won''t have any opinions," she said in a low voice and turned around. "I still have


    something to do. I have to leave first."


    As she spoke, she turned around and walked towards the electric vehicles outside.


    However, her arm was pulled by Hansen.


    "Where are you going?" After being absent-minded for a moment, he asked in a deep voice.


    "I still have some matters to attend to. Mom wants me to go home." She did receive a call from


    Bailey that day. Initially, she had nned to leave as soon as possible, but since she wanted to see


    Jerry, she met Liya at the swimming pool, which dyed her ns. She didn''t intend to hide it from


    Hansen.


    Was she going back to the Francist Community?


    Hansen lifted his brows and immediately responded, "I''ll go with you."


    "There''s no need for that." Jenna rejected immediately without a second thought. She didn''t think


    that going back to her mother''s house with


    Hansen at that time would go down well with everyone. Since he was determined to marry Liya, she


    thought that thest person her mother would want to see right then was Hansen. So, why should


    she create trouble by letting Hansen go with her?


    A hint of pain shed across the depths of Hansen''s eyes. He soon understood Jenna''s thoughts


    and tightened his grip on her arm.


    "Go and look for the butler and ask him to arrange your amodation." Hansen turned around


    and ordered Liya, who was standing beside him, in a cold manner. Then, he moved his arm, picked


    up Jenna from her back and walked towards the electric vehicle.


    Jenna didn''t realize that she had been lifted by Hansen''s strong arms. She only came to her sense


    when she saw that the scenery around her had started to change. She immediately called out,


    "Hansen, let me go."


    "Don''t cause trouble. I''ll go with you." His low and maic voice rang in her ear charmingly, but he


    said it in a tone that indicated that he wouldn''t ept her refusal.
