Chapter 768
Suddenly, Steffan leaned forward and locked his eyes on Jenna. He said in a low and solemn voice,
"Dory, trust me. I will definitely be able to give you happiness."
His breathing was ragged, his breath hot as he stared at her with burning eyes.
"After our auto show next month, I''ll help you to apply for a Srirano passport. Then, I''ll bring you
back to Capital City to meet my parents. What do you think?"
He was very aggressive. He was so intimidating that Jenna could not help but to take a few steps
back.
"Steffan, please don''t force me... Don''t forget that I was once pregnant," Jenna said as she started
to panic.
"No, don''t say that again. I''m willing to do this. I have thought about all the consequences. For those
people in your past, you don''t exist anymore. It''s better to start over," Steffan said seriously.
Jenna felt a headacheing on.
"Ah, it''s almost time. I think we should make a move," Steffan quickly said after taking a quick
nce at his watch. He realized that Jenna did not look so good all of a sudden. He sighed and
said, "Dory, don''t worry. I''ll give you some time to think about it. I want you to think before rejecting
me."
Jenna felt as if her heart was clogging up.
She did not know what else to say to Steffan. She had time and time again rejected him, explicitly or
implicitly, and she could no longer bring herself to hurl cruel words at him anymore.
There was no reason for her to reject him after what he had done for her. He had taken care of her
and showered her with affection.
Putting aside the past, she was currently on her own. She had no one to rely on. If she left Steffan,
she could not imagine what might lie in the road ahead.
All of a sudden, the loneliness that had been hidden at the bottom of her heart suddenly burst out
like a broken dam.
She felt extremely ufortable. She wanted to burst into tears at that moment.
She lowered her eyes and could feel nothing but sheer loneliness. Tears began to pool in her eyes.
She was lonely and helpless.
The feeling of loneliness kept on growing and growing that her entire body was frozen in the snow.
At that moment, she was worried that she would fall over.
Snowkes began to flutter down from the sky. They came one after another. It was as if the
snowkes resembled the loneliness in her heart.
She was in so much pain that she could not control herself. She crouched down and buried her face
in her hands. She instantly burst into tears.
"Dory, what''s wrong?" Steffan was afraid that he had offended her. He reached out to ce a
comforting hand on her shoulder and said in a soft voice that carried a little of self-me, "I''m sorry,
please don''t cry. I shouldn''t have forced you."
All the fear and loneliness that she had been hiding came pouring out at that moment. Jenna could
not control herself.
Steffan quietly helped her to her feet. She was crying so much that she could not stand up straight.
He had never seen her cry like this in such a long time.
She must have suppressed her emotions for a long time. It was better for her to let it all out.
He took out some tissues to wipe her tears and said dotingly, "Look, your makeup is all messed up
now. Silly girl! Just let it all out. Don''t worry, I will not force you anymore."
He knew that Jenna was a woman who liked to keep things to herself. She would not reveal the
secrets in her heart easily, nor would she show her emotions in front of others easily. She buried all
her bitterness in her heart. Although she always had a smile on her face, no one knew how much
she was suffering within.
It was because of this that Steffan was finally willing to give in.
He did not want to see her in pain. He would feel sorry for her.
"Let''s go and fix your makeup first," Steffan said softly when he saw that Jenna had finally calmed
down.
They soon made their way back to theGdari Hotel.
"Dory, we are runningte. I''m going to head back to the office to grab the designs and invitation
card while you fix your makeup." Steffan did not expect that they would be running behind schedule.
He looked at the time and realized that it was better to leave from here. He kindly told Jenna, "If you
feel a little tired after fixing your makeup, then you can take a rest here."
"Alright." Jenna nodded obediently.
Then, Steffan left in a hurry.
"Alvin, what time is it now?" After eating lunch, Hansen went back to the office briefly to deal with
company affairs. He then brought his luggage and followed Alvin back to the Gdari Hotel to take
a nap.
Ever since hended in Srirano, he could always feel a type of strange and unpredictable aura
lingering around him. Even when he fell asleep, he would still be surrounded by this feeling.
When he firsty down on the hotel bed, he could not help but to toss and turn. He just could not
seem to fall asleep.
He couldn''t sleep as peacefully as before ever since Jenna left. In the past, he had always held her
in his arms when he slept. But now he was cold and lonely. Most of the time, his nights were not
visited by sleep.
When he was finally able to fall asleep, he heard a woman''s faint crying. However, the voice
sounded very familiar. It was as if his mind was teasing him.
He was so shocked that he wanted to sit up, but he could not open his eyes.
When he woke up again, he realized that the sky outside was getting a little dark. He knew that it
was gettingte.
"Mr. Richards, it''s almost six o''clock now. It''s about time we leave for Master Adames''s birthday
banquet," Alvin reminded him seriously after checking his phone.
"Alright, then let''s set out." Hansen nodded.
After Alvin helped Hansen clean up, the two made their way out the door.
Jenna stood at the entrance of the hotel, anxiously checking her cell phone from time to time.
"Steffan has been gone for some time. Why isn''t he back?"
She stood there, fidgeting.
Alvin apanied Hansen into the elevator as they made their way to the first floor. They then
exited the elevator once it announced its arrival at the first floor.
The light at the door was a little blurry. Hansen adjusted his sses. It seemed that it would take
some time for his eyes to recover.
"Mr. Richards, I heard that Melvin Adames has a strange character. He is a lecherous man. You''ll
have to put in more effort if you want to convince him to join ourpany," Alvin said with some
worry.

The corners of Hansen''s lips curled into a yful smile. "A talented person chooses a patron of
integrity. He''s a human after all. Although he might be picky, he''s also a man with desires. It
shouldn''t be difficult to convince a person like him. In today''s world, are there any automobile
companies that can rival our Richards Group? Unless, he does not want to be famous."
When Alvin heard this, although he agreed, he still could not bring himself to loosen up.
"Mr. Richards, the Yintern Group is currently thergest corporation in Srirano. Ourpany is just
starting out here. I heard that Steffan Yintern, the president of the Yintern Group, is also very fond of
him. I also heard that Steffan''s girlfriend is a very talented automotive designer. She''s the one who
designed the car model that broke the pre-order record at the auto show at the World Trade Center
last month. At present, Steffan is nning to organize an auto show next month to showcase his car
designs. I heard that he is nning on expanding his business worldwide," Alvin exined the
details of his investigation.
"Is that all?" Hansen smirked at Alvin. "Isn''t it just the Yintern Group?"
In the business field, there was nothing he could not ovee. The Yintern Group was nothing!
Just as Hansen mentioned the word ''Yintern'', Alvin suddenly thought of something. He could not
believe his eyes.
"Mrs. Richards!" Alvin suddenly shouted in surprise.
