"Speak out. Tell everyone present to whom the child in your belly belongs to. Let everyone know the truth. Don't mislead them into thinking that you're pregnant with my child. Please clear my name. If you still have a sliver of conscience and you really love me, then say it out and let them know," Hansen bellowed harshly. "Ah, no." Every word that Hansen had said was hitting Aria's heart like a sledgehammer. She fought back her tears, her hopeless eyes glistening with fear. With a blank expression, she stared at him and shook her head all of a sudden. She madly murmured, "No, Hansen, this child is yours." "Liar. Even up till this moment, you're still fabricating stories. You're irredeemable." Hansen turned furious. He snarled, "Do you think if you don't tell me, I won't be able to find out? I'll tell you what, I already found out everything." He rose to his feet, his words dripping with ferocity. "Very well. I've given you a chance, but you didn't take it. You're push
Christopher turned around and said respectfully to Trevor, who was sitting in a wheelchair, "Uncle Richards, congratulations on your recovery. You must go to Capital City next time to visit my father. He has been talking about you every day." "Sure, Christopher. Please tell your father to visit A City too." Trevor nodded with a pleasant smile. After greeting them one by one, Christopher came over and shook hands with Hansen. He patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "How about that? I have helped restore your reputation. Consider this a favor, alright?" Upon hearing this, Hansen rolled his eyes and said disapprovingly, "One thing's proven; we only have ourselves to rely on. If I hadn't acted first and caught Brock, would you still have this achievement?" Christopher laughed heartily and did not argue with him. Teasing, he said, "You're still so narrow-minded. Be careful that Jenna may not forgive you. At that time, you'll be miserable." After he
Rayan pursed his thin lips slightly and asked lightly, "If you were to stay by my side, can you love me with your entire heart? Can you love me the way you loved him?" "Rayan, I beg you, don't force me. Please believe that time will dull everything." It was hard for her to respond to such a request. Even she herself was lost. Norton had said previously that marriages that bloomed from true love were such a rare occurrence. Staying by each other's side and mutual love were two completely different things. Absorbing the confusion on her face, Rayan smiled bitterly in his heart. A woman loved a man with all her heart and she was even pregnant with his child. Even if she was really willing to stay by his side and marry him, her heart would never belong to him. Of course, he understood this. However, did he really need this kind of commitment and company? They ate and chatted for a long time during this meal. When the two of them walked out of the w
In the Ink Garden. Vivian, as well as Trevor, were sitting together, engaged in a heart-to-heart discussion. "Trevor, I'm relieved that you've recovered." Vivian sighed, but still couldn't shake off her worries. "But now, I'm very worried about Hansen instead. This time, he might not be able to overcome this." Vivian's worries were not unjustified. Even after so many days, her beloved grandson was still missing. Nonetheless, her people had informed her that Hansen had spent all day in the restaurant, drinking and wallowing in self-pity. Neglecting the company's affairs, he seemed to have completely changed into a different person. This time, Jenna had completely disappeared. There was not a single trace left after she'd disappeared. The last time when she had gone abroad, Vivian was still able to keep track of her and her recent activities. This time, however, she was totally out of reach. To Hansen, this was a fatal blow, especially when she w
"Child, come here." Vivian absorbed his despondent expression, her face wearing a mask of pain and heartache. This was the only grandson whom she could be proud of, even though there were times when he messed up. He was no saint, but to err is human! Although he had his own share of indiscretions, it still showed how much he valued his feelings and loyalty. He was worthy of being trusted by a woman for the rest of his life. The key was that this woman must have a good eye to recognize his merits. She believed that Jenna could be the one, and she also believed that her grandson was a good man who valued feelings and righteousness. Obediently, Hansen walked over and crouched down in front of her. "Hansen, my good child, Your current state is giving me pain in the heart. Believe me, though Jenna has already left this place, she would not be able to leave this earth. Now that the consumer media is so advanced, even if you can't see her, she will definitely see you f
Hansen frowned as the memories of his and Jenna's past traveled across his mind. His face was sometimes full of mild smiles. Other times it was warm, and sometimes anxious and uneasy. After staring at the computer in the office for three days straight, he finally printed a 3D car model. This new collection combining both Jenna's and his creative design had just been posted onto the Internet when it received the approval of many female compatriots, garnering unanimous praise. Hansen smiled slightly, reaching a decision. Immediately, he called Marquis and asked him to put this model into production at once. He was ready to put it on display at the next car fair. Surely enough, the final product was not only beautiful and easy to the eyes, but also small and exquisite. As soon as it made an appearance at the sales fair, it grabbed a lot of people's attention and immediately entered the market, lavished with the favor of women car aficionados. It was slowly populari
"Your butler, he said that she left with you." Hansen answered, his tone indignant and righteous. "So, just based off on that, you've become certain that I'm the one who took your woman away?" Rayan asked with a look of disdain. "First of all, Jen is not your woman. By law or in life, I won't agree to it. Secondly, yes, she did come out of the villa with me, but we went our separate ways after that. I went to the airport and she went to the train station. How would I know where she was headed to?" Rayan shrugged, shook his head, and spread out his hands. A glimmer of starlight flashed across Hansen's darkened eyes. Soon, it was enveloped in an even more intense gloominess. "You're saying that she didn't stay with you at all, and that she didn't leave with you?" The joy that had just surged into his heart was quickly replaced by worry. Jenna really didn't stay with Rayan. This idea once again vindicated Trevor's judgment of Jenna and also proved that his guess wa
A year later. A sudden earthquake alarmed everyone. Almost overnight, the news media was plastered with the coverage of the earthquake. Regardless of which channel was switched to, or which website was clicked into, the images were all replaced with a solid, grey-colored background. The high-intensity earthquake had almost destroyed everything in S City. In the living room of Green Jade Garden. Hansen was accompanying Trevor and Marissa at dinner. "Hansen, the earthquake is a natural disaster. The Richards Group is a large group company. Have you prepared anything for this?" After stuffing a mouthful of omelette into his mouth, Trevor remembered the current situation and asked seriously. After gulping down the almond milk, Hansen smiled and said gently, "Don't worry, Dad. We are a well-known company and wouldn't skimp on any donation. Last night, I asked the mid-level executives of the company to bring ten thousand tents and a lot of food, as w
