Chapter 524


    "Hansen, you promised me if I obtained the evidence Zoe used to frame Jenna, you''ll marry me.


    You can''t go back on your word, alright?" After Liya sat down on the sofa, she lifted her head and


    spoke with tears in her eyes.


    The light in Hansen''s eyes flickered.


    "So, do you mean that you''ve obtained it?" he asked in a deep voice.


    "Hansen, will you fulfil your promise?" Liya didn''t answer him as she pressed on.


    Looking at her, Hansen forced a smile and nodded after quite some time.


    "Of course, I won''t go back on my word."


    "Well, I finally obtained the evidence Zoe used to frame Jenna, and I can hand it over to you right


    now. Then, when are you going to marry me, Hansen?"


    The expression on Liya''s face showed that she was staking everything on that, and she was also


    determined.


    Hansen''s eyes shed as he asked without batting an eyelid, "Liya, did you really obtain the


    evidence?"


    "Yes." Liya looked up and nodded. "Hansen, you should know that no one will chase after me and


    try to kill me if I hadn''t obtained the evidence."


    That was true. Otherwise, he, Hansen, wouldn''t have left Jenna alone and rushed there.


    "But, Hansen, I''ll only give it to you when you marry me, so that you won''t go back on your word."


    Excitement shed across Liya''s face, and her expression revealed persistence. She appeared to


    be determined, as she would never give up until she reached her goal.


    Hansenughed all of a sudden. "Liya, do you think you''ll be safe if you don''t hand it over to me?


    You''ve seen it just then. Someone''s already trying to hunt you down once you''ve got it. Do you


    really think Zoe will let you off so easily?"


    Liya''s face instantly turned pale. "That''s why I''m asking when you''re gonna marry me, Hansen. You


    promised you''ll marry me once I get the evidence."

    Hansen looked at her with his lips curled up. "Do you really want to marry me as my second wife?


    Let me warn you that it''s not as fun as you think."


    "I''m not doing it for fun. I''m taking it very seriously. Hansen, I''m willing to do it." Liya''s eyes were


    red, and her body was tense.


    Other than doing so, she seemed not to have a better way out, and that was indeed a shortcut as


    well.


    Hansen''s gaze grew even more stern and darker. Stretching out his hand, he said, "Give me the


    evidence first. We''ll hold the wedding in a week''s time."


    "A week''s time, really?" Liya said as her eyes shone brightly.


    "Yes." Hansen''s handsome face, paired with a dark blue perfectly- ironed suit, had a cold and stern


    expression. His entire body was emitting a mature and unstoppable aura of an emperor as he


    asked, "You don''t trust me?"


    "No, I trust you, I trust you. Since you''re the president of such a big organization, you definitely


    won''t lie to me." When Liya met his cold eyes, she felt a slight chill, which scared her. She then


    nodded in a hurry, opened her leather bag, and took out a box from it, handing it over to Hansen


    with both hands.


    Hansen''s cold gaze was fixed on the wooden box that was given to him. His eyes narrowed as he


    slowly took the evidence. It was as if he didn''t ask for it, but Liya forced it on him in an attempt to


    tter him.


    Liya''s heart was pounding.


    Hansen weighed the wooden box in his hand. His face was indifferent while his heart was filled with


    another kind of pain and heaviness.


    His men had been following Zoe for so long, but they still couldn''t get the evidence. Liya ended up


    obtaining it. With that, Jenna''s usations could finally be clear, but because of that, the


    consequences...


    "As long as I can prove Jenna''s innocence, I will keep my promise," he said tly. Then, he turned


    and left.


    "Hansen." Seeing that Hansen was leaving with the evidence she had given him, Liya felt a sense


    of panic and began to beg from behind. "Hansen, can you stay with me? I''m scared."


    Hansen turned his head around. "If you don''t have anything else, you should go back to Richards


    Manor. There won''t be any danger there."


    After finishing that sentence, he strode off.


    His departure brought about a gust of cold wind that blew towards Liya. She shuddered and


    lowered her head. Tears welled up in her eyes as the pain from the wounds caused by Oscar''s


    torture were now stinging more and more sharply.


    After a while, she collected herself and headed towards Richards Manor.


    "Mom, I got the jade fan for you." As soon as Jenna entered the house, she put on a bright smile.


    Sara was sitting on the couch reading the newspaper. Hearing Jenna''s voice, she took off her


    sses and looked at her with a smile on her face.


    "Mom." She put her arms around Sara''s neck, acting like a spoiled child. "Are you happy that I didn''t


    let you down? I''m a good daughter, right? You should praise me then."


    Jenna wrapped her arms around Sara''s neck and said coyly while shaking her head. Only by Sara''s


    side could she feel the sense of bliss she felt when she was in her teens.


    Sara smiled lovingly and caressed Jenna''s head with her hand. "You really are my good daughter."


    For now, Sara would only feel contented and happy when Jenna was acting like a spoiled child with


    her. Her daughter was now her one and only rtive.


    "Mom, I have something to tell you." Jenna sat down beside Sara, held her hand, and said wittily,


    "Do you know who wrote the poem you always read aloud on the jade fan?"


    "Who is it?" Sara''s eyebrows twitched.


    "Madam Lilian." Jenna said proudly, "Let me tell you. The poem on the jade fan was written by


    Madam Lilian herself." "Who is Madam Lilian?" Sara asked with an indifferent smile.


    "Madam Lilian is a great woman. She''s the most powerful woman in the world right now." When


    Jenna thought of the friendly and harmonious rtionship between Madam Lilian and herself, she


    laughed out unconsciously with an expression full of admiration.


    Sara''s eyes clouded over with thoughts, and she couldn''t help asking, "Are you referring to the


    internationally acimed Madam Lilian?"


    "Yes, Mom, that''s correct. It seems that my Mom also likes politics and pays a lot of attention to the


    news." Jenna teased and grinned.


    A look of surprise appeared on Sara''s face, but she shook her head immediately after.


    "It''s no wonder someone would try to bid for the jade fan away from you. It turns out that Madam


    Lilian''s poem is written on it." She gave a faint smile with an indifferent expression.


    "Mom, I really didn''t expect the poem you often read out was written by Madam Lilian." Jenna


    laughed happily as she couldn''t believe it as well.


    Sara held the newspaper in her hand, but she seemed lost in her thoughts.


    That jade fan was what her mother left her. It was just that she missed her mother when she was


    young. So, she naturally memorized the poem on the fan. At that time, she didn''t know what it


    meant. Right then, it seemed that the poem was written by Madam Lilian herself. She became


    puzzled as to how her mother got the fan at that time. However, the fact that Madam Lilian


    personally wrote the poem was nothing unusual, right? As there were many prominent individuals


    who often wrote such poems.


    "Mom, Madam Lilian is a very friendly person. She is also very interested in this fan and even said


    that she wanted to invite you over for a meal with her. It seems that she is also very interested in


    you, as she kept saying that you''re a blissful mother." When Jenna thought of Madam Lilian''s


    interest in that fan, she was confused. So, she immediately told Sara how she felt about Madam


    Lilian.


    "Really?" Sara smiled disapprovingly. "You child, how could you be so happy with just a few words


    of praise? Who doesn''t know how to say such polite words?"


    Sara shook her head with a smile.


    Jenna also felt that it was really odd. In fact, their rtionship was quite incredible as she should not


    have any further contact with Madam Lilian. After all, the disparity between their statuses was too


    great and there was also no reason for Madam Lilian to interact with her. However, since she had


    such a coincidental encounter with her, she was very happy.


    Therefore, she decided to return home and discuss it with Hansen. She wanted to treat Madam


    Lilian to an exceptional meal, as Madam Lilian had agreed to it almost immediately.


    As soon as Jenna left the Francist Community, she went straight back to Richards Manor.


    "What''s wrong? Did you fail?" Zoe stood in the office with a newspaper in her hand. Her eyes


    were red.


    "Miss Yates, we''ve been fooled by Hansen. He has already settled Liya down and used her


    admiration towards him to obtain the evidence used to frame Jenna, by saying that he will marry her


    if she did so. With that, our n is ruined." Octavia hurriedly rushed over with anger all over her


    face. "Hansen had already long expected this. He even sent his men to follow Liya today. When we


    were about to seed, his men appeared and saved her. The evidence is probably in Hansen''s


    hands right now."


    Zoe''s face was terrifyingly gloomy, as she clenched her fists tightly.


    She didn''t expect Liya to steal the evidence of her framing Jenna. Right then, without his weak spot,


    Hansen would be able to act freely, and she wouldn''t be able to carry out her n.


    The worse thing was that she wouldn''t be able to free herself from Oscar anymore. As long as she


    thought of Oscar, her eyes would burn with rage.


    "Liya, how dare you betray me? You''re so hateful. Since you want to climb the socialdder by


    bing Hansen''s second wife in order to get rid of me, I definitely won''t let you seed. Besides,


    do you think you''re worthy of bing Hansen''s second wife? Does Hansen deserve a woman like


    you?" She gritted her teeth with anger.


    "That''s right, Miss Yates. Liya is a really despicable and shameless woman. She isn''t grateful for


    your kindness at all and betrayed you once she got hold of other benefits. Is such a woman worthy


    of Hansen?" Octavia, who was at the side, was furious, as their n had been messed up by Liya


    right then.


    Zoe suddenly thought of something. The smile on her face turned sinister.


    That recording of Oscar toying with Liya. With that, at least she wouldn''t be threatened by Oscar. As


    long as they went on like that, Liya would definitely break down from being toyed with by Oscar.


    At the thought of that, her anger dissipated.
