Chapter 596
"Jenna, you are right. We should stick to our fundamental principle, and in the meantime, I believe
that we will find evidence very soon." Hansen was originally worried that Jenna would suffer a blow.
Nheless, after hearing her words today, he was relieved. She was even more confident than
him. This was the woman whom he loved.
At this point, they could only wait for the result.
Trevor, Marissa, ude, and Norton left thepany one after another and returned to the Ink
Garden.
"Jenna, how are you feeling?" After they left, Hansen immediately put his arms around Jenna''s
waist and asked carefully.
Jenna''s face turned slightly red. "Come on, I''m not so delicate."
This guy had started treating her like a porcin doll.
"Remember, you are not allowed to rush into thepany so rashly the next time. This road is
dangerous." Hansen recalled the previous night''s incident where his Hummer''s brake had failed for
no reason and reminded Jenna fearfully.
"Don''t worry. I''m an experienced driver. Nothing will happen to me." Jenna smiled and answered
casually.
However, Hansen was unhappy. With a dark expression, he pinched her nose. "You''re not allowed
to talk back. You should be unconditionally obedient."
"Alright." Jenna had no choice but topromise in the face of his might.
"Jenna, since you''vee out today, let''s go out for a meal and rx." Hansen suggested as he
held her hand. At this point, Hansen had already calmed himself down. As long as Jenna was with
him, and they could live a simple and good life, the other material things meant nothing to him.
"Okay." Jenna saw that his face was haggard and thought he had been exhausted recently. So, she
immediately agreed.
The two of them looked at each other and chuckled, walking out hand in hand.
Hansen drove Jenna''s Lamborghini and took his beloved woman to a high-end restaurant in the
city.

Green leaves were creeping onto the wall, and there was a stream of river under the small bridge.
The environment in the dining room was really different, which was in line with Jenna''s elegant and
quiet personality. It seemed that Hansen had chosen toe here because he knew Jenna well.
The two of them walked hand in hand, talking andughing.
The atmosphere in the hall abruptly quietened for a few seconds after they came in, with all eyes on
them. The general consensus was that, "The Richards Group has had such a big ident. So, how
could they still be so calm and rxed? They are talking andughing as if nothing had happened."
Jenna had long since gotten used to being with Hansen in public. With a smile on her face, she
calmly looked around and spoke openly, "Hansen, the hall is full. We need a private room."
"Of course, honey." Hansen''srge hand sped her waist and replied tenderly.
The lobby manager recognized Hansen and immediately went up to meet him.
"Give us a good private room." Hansen gave an order to the lobby manager, who nodded and
bowed to them.
"Yes, Mr. Richards." The lobby manager agreed with a smile and led them to an elegant private
room upstairs.
Hansen''s grip on Jenna suddenly tightened, and the light in his eyes suddenly flickered with a hint
of coldness.
Jenna felt the obvious change in his touch and raised her head in surprise.
One of the private rooms suddenly opened, and Sergio walked out. He was in a suit, his face was
flushed, and there was obvious smugness and arrogance in his gaze.
They met each other in the corridor.
Jenna was stunned.
It was totally unexpected to bump into Sergio here!
The atmosphere in the air suddenly became tense.
"Mr. Richards, you seem to be so carefree." Sergio greeted Hansen with an evil smile in his eyes as
he loosened the knot on his tie with one hand.
Hansen tightened his grip.
"Mr. Xanthe, how are you?" Jenna took the initiative to speak up and answered on behalf of
Hansen. "I''m tired of eating the food at home. Hence, we''re out for a meal."
"Oh." Sergio chuckled and shrugged his shoulders. "That''s so romantic."
Sergio''s private room was the second room next to theirs. The door was open at this time. Through
the crack of the door, Jenna could see the side profile of a woman.
The woman was sitting quietly, and Jenna could clearly see that she was listening to their
conversation.
Jenna''s heart skipped a beat, and the smile on her face, which had been forced, became a little
stiff.
The woman was Zoe.
Women''s intuition was very sensitive.
Jenna recognized her at a nce.
Zoe and Sergio were actually having a meal together, even though it didn''t seem suspicious. After
all, they had known each other since childhood. Still, seeing them together with such a warm
atmosphere caused Jenna to raise her guard.
"Jenna, please go ahead and wait for me." Hansen lowered his head and spoke to Jenna with an
amiable expression.
Jenna hesitated, afraid that he would have a falling out with Sergio.
"Don''t worry. Go ahead." Hansen saw through her thoughts and leaned over to whisper into her ear,
"Trust me."
Jenna had no choice but to follow the lobby manager into the private room alone.
"What? Is there something that you can''t tell your wife?" Sergio looked at them coldly and held back
his jealousy. He uttered sarcastically, "Even now that yourpany is going to copse, you''re still
in such a good mood,ing out to eat like this. Could it be that you''re only doing this as you''ve
given up and want to enjoy your life before you end up in poverty?"
It was obvious that Sergio was trying to humiliate him.
Hansen shook his head and raised his handsome face. He took a step closer to Sergio and asked
sternly, "Sergio, what are you trying to achieve by holding onto the Richards family?"
Sergio looked at him and replied with a forced smile, "Hansen, are you panicking? Yarismitted
suicide for fear of punishment. Yourpany will not escape from this crime. I''ll have you know that
I have already handed in this investigation result today. It is estimated that the superiors will soon
punish yourpany, and Sadiva can''t protect you anymore. Even if you seek Johan''s assistance,
there is nothing you can do. The people on the Inte are cursing yourpany. Besides, your
company''s crimes are too huge, and the impact is too bad for him to openlye forward on your
behalf."
Sergio deliberately dragged thest sentence of this exchange. His face was full of pride. If
Hansen''s patience was not good, then he might have thrown Sergio down from the second floor.
"Sergio, you are despicable and shameless. Mypany has done well all this time and will not be
destroyed by a viin like you," Hansen retorted with a cold face.
"Me, destroy yourpany?" Sergio raised his eyebrows and responded with an air of
exaggeration, "Hansen, who do you think you are? Do you think that I have to destroy your
company? If you have the ability, show the evidence. After all, everyone is equal in the eyes of the
law. The Richards Group will not be an exception either. If you are innocent, then prove it. And if
you have broken thew, you should ept the punishment of thew. It is fair and just."
Sergio spoke straightforwardly and righteously.
Hearing his words, Hansen''s face was full of derision. He took a step forward, warning in a deep
voice, "Sergio, stop pretending to be noble. I already know that you conspired with Zoe. The
incident where my Hummer''s brakes failedst night will be investigated, including the off-road
vehicle that crashed into me in the underground garage that day. That''s the time that I''ll finally settle
the score between the Xanthe family and
me.
A lingering fear shed through Sergio''s heart. He could clearly sense Hansen''s fury.
"Sergio, I still don''t understand why you have to force me into a dead end again and again. The
Richards family has always separated politics and business. Why do you have to cross the line over
and over again? Don''t you know that I will fight back once I lose my patience?" Hansen''s gaze was
focused, and the rage in his eyes was burning.
Sergio felt guilty, but the endless jealousy in his heart surged, causing him to lose his mind.
Ever since he was young, he had not been able to stand Hansen.
When Hansen took Jenna away, this feeling became even more obvious.
The term ''arch-enemy'' was the most suitable word for them.
Every species had its own natural enemy. In his subconscious, Hansen was Sergio''s natural enemy.
They were both important men. Zoe would give him some benefits and bring others and their
votes to his family''s side. Moreover, they could look at each other on a simr level.
However, Hansen wasn''t the same. He had always been high and mighty and had never put the
Xanthe family on the same level as himself. Even during the election, when Sergio looked for him,
Hansen had always acted as if he had nothing to do with anything, and was arrogant.
In other words, the better the oue for the Richards Group, the greater the threat they would
pose to the Xanthe family.
This could be seen from what happened in the Wullen Town''s chemical nt.
They were like two parallel lines. Never crossing paths, and their interests always conflicted with
each other.
This was the reason that Sergio wanted to terminate the Richards Group, not just because of
Zoe''s persuasion.
Reality proved that his thoughts were correct. At the critical moment when the Xanthe family was
facing the election, Hansen had actually gone to meet Luqman.
Hence, Sergio had no reason to let go of the Richards Group.
"Hansen, don''t act like you don''t know a f*cking thing. The reason why I punished yourpany is
that you vited thew. D*mn it. Now people all over the country are scolding you. Can you me
me?" Sergio straightened his back and held his head high, with his face full of anger. "You are a
despicable person. You talked about the separation of politics and business in front of me but
colluded with Luqman behind my back. Don''t think that I don''t know what you are doing. No matter
what, any movement of yours can''t escape from my eyes." The more he said, the more agitated he
became. His eyes were burning with rage, and it seemed like he could burn Hansen to ashes.
Hansen was stunned for a moment and suddenly burst outughing. "I must say, Mr. Xanthe. It''s
normal for me to meet Luqman. You''re also eating with Zoe right now. Could I actually ruin your
family''s future just because I visited Luqman? I can''t make sense of this logic."
Speaking of this, Hansen stoppedughing and squinted his wide and phoenix-like eyes. He asked
in a cold voice, "Is Luqman holding onto any of your secrets? Or perhaps you feel guilty as you
have done some bad things that are harmful to the country and the people?"
As Hansen asked, he stared at him and smiled.
Upon hearing these words, Sergio felt a chill run down his spine.
