Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 313

The phone rang, and Hansen picked it up. His brows furrowed into a straight line.

"Come home with me now." He hung up the phone and instructed Jenna right away.

"No, Hansen, I have to watch over him. He's injured because of me. I have to stay here and take care of him." she said repeatedly, shaking her head.

Hansen's expression changed, and he extended his arm to grab her hand.

Jenna looked up at Hansen with her pitiful gaze. Her eyes were bright but full of helplessness. The tenderness in her watery eyes was a huge blow to his heart.

His heart softened. He no longer dared to intimidate her with brute force.

After a long while, he sighed heavily and said, "Fine, you can watch over him, but make sure that you get enough rest. Remember, you're a pregnant woman."

He instructed her with a darkened face. Then, he turned around and left the hospital.

In the hall of the Ink Garden, all the doors and windows were shut tightly. There wasn't a single servant in sight.

As Hansen approached the hall, his brows furrowed slightly. He pushed the door open, but it was silent in there.

Wasn't it Grandma who had told him to come here?

Why wasn't there a single servant? Where have they gone?

"Ahem." He coughed lightly, confused.

The door of the lounge opened quietly.

Meroy walked out of the room.

"Young Master, please enter." Meroy smiled and invited him in politely.

Hansen nodded. Ever since the last time his grandmother had told him to take up his responsibilities as a man and own up to his own mistakes, he had never seen his grandmother after that. Even when he wanted to see her, she refused to meet him. That day, she was finally willing to see him.

He walked in slowly.

An Australian fleece carpet was laid on the floor of Grandma's room, and it was soft and comfortable to step on. However, Hansen felt an ethereal sensation as he stepped on it, as if he was stepping on clouds. He couldn't keep his balance, and felt anxious in his heart.

Earl McAdams had been arrested.

What did this mean to the Richards family?

From the perspective of outsiders, it was a threat to the Richards Family.

After all, an arranged marriage was about to be held between the two families. Now that something had happened to Earl, the Richards Group had lost a strong backer in the eyes of others.

However, from the perspective of the Richards family...

Vivian laid on the recliner, with her eyes closed as she rested. Her grey hair was combed into a neat hairstyle, and she looked energetic and rosy.

"Grandma." Hansen approached her and called out to her softly.

Vivian opened her eyes at once. A subtle but bright light flashed across her murky eyes, while a slight smile was spread across her face. A radiant light was reflected by her silver teeth.

"Hansen, you're here. Come and sit down." Vivian grabbed his hand and smiled lovingly.

Hansen sat down in front of her, but he did not know what to say.

"Hansen, how was the New Year's banquet?" Vivian said with a smile, and she caressed Hansen's pale and slender fingers with her wrinkled hand.

"It was... fine." Hansen forced a smile.

"Okay. 'Fine' is good enough." Vivian nodded.

"What are you planning to do next?"

Hansen understood what his grandmother was talking about. The scene of Jenna holding Rayan's hand flashed across his eyes, and his hands stiffened as he felt a hint of bitterness in his heart.

"Grandma, Earl has been arrested. It will take some time to close the case, but I will not marry Aria." Hansen said with certainty.

Vivian's face was stern, and her voice was calm. The minute she heard that the child in Aria's womb wasn't Hansen's, she felt instantly relieved and relaxed, and a thrilled smile spread across her face.

If what he said was really true, then it would be much easier to deal with them.

"Don't worry, Grandma. I've planned to chase away all the immoral people from Richards Manor in the next few days. I will investigate the case of your medicine being swapped, and the person who snuck into your room as well. I already have some evidence." Hansen hadn't seen his grandmother so relieved in a very long time, and was elated as well.

"Alright. Let's hope that we can uncover the truth by the eighth, and then announce it to the media. Then, you can do anything you want." Vivian's murky eyes brightened up as she smiled lightly. All of a sudden, she thought of something.

She continued asking. "What about Jenna? She is to be pitied as well. Her father died in the car accident, and her mother is now paralyzed waist down. These battles were never meant for her, yet she was forced to take them. Besides, she..." Vivian gave Hansen a glance. She wanted to say that Jenna had had an unpleasant marriage as well, but she ended up swallowing those words.

Hansen's heart tightened. The image of her hugging Rayan as she cried flashed before his eyes, and his face darkened. He felt as if his heart was being slashed by knives, and he remained silent.

Vivian peered at him and said slowly, "Don't worry, Hansen. After this incident, I will never interfere in your marriage anymore. You must make your own decisions, and I believe that you have already made the right judgements. I will respect and support all of your decisions."

Hearing her words, his lips moved slightly, and the light in his eyes was as cool as water.

Without saying anything, he walked out of the Ink Garden slowly.

The guests who were supposed to leave had already left, and the ones who were supposed to remain had stayed behind. Hansen gave orders to lock up Richards Manor, and nobody could enter or leave the place.

He wanted to put an end to everything by the eighth.

Although it was an old house, there were at least a few hundred servants and staff members in there. It was about time he did some restructuring.

Two days later, the news that the police had discovered two hundred million dollars worth of cash and numerous luxurious wine bottles, famous paintings, and precious jewelry in Earl McAdam's residence was all over the newspapers. Soon enough, Earl was removed from his position.

Three days later, the truth to Javon Murphy's case was finally uncovered!

Earl was greedy, and wanted to pocket the huge amount of money from the financial department, but Javon was the minister of the financial department. If he wanted to take the money for himself, he would have to go through Javon. However, Javon was stubborn and refused to cooperate with him, let alone falsifying records for him. Coincidentally, Sheldon Ford was desperate to be transferred to Capital City at that time as his family members were all in Capital City. Therefore, Earl had used him to embezzle the money instead.

However, when he handed the records to Javon to be signed as the final part of the deal, Javon found out what they'd done. As a righteous man, Javon definitely refused to sign the record, knowing that it was against the law. He even tried to challenge Earl, and said that he would report him to their superiors. Earl panicked, and he orchestrated this vicious scheme. Then, he made Sheldon do it for him.

Furthermore, Earl heard from Aria that Norton aspired to be the minister of the financial department. So, everything fell into place naturally.
