"Hansen, I want you to promise me a few things." A long while later, Jenna tipped her head up and spoke in a faint voice. "Go ahead, my dear. Even if it's ten hundred things, I'll agree to it all," Hansen said with deep feelings. "First, quit smoking," Jenna said seriously. "Dear, I promise you." Hansen gritted his teeth and replied with a smile. His wife cared so much about him. Of course he would be happy to quit smoking. Besides, the reason he had smoked previously was because she had not been around. Now that she was with him, there was no need to fall back into that habit. "Second, drink less when you are engaged in social activities, and you must be home before 12 a.m." Jenna jutted two fingers and put forward the second request. "Okay, dear, I will do it." Hansen replied without hesitation. What surprised Hansen was that he was able to force himself to agree to the following conditions. "Thirdly, in the future, apart from me, you can't h
When the sunset cast a golden glow over the beach, the wedding was set in motion. Sabrina paced out of the lounge with Jenna. The breathtaking, pristine wedding dress flattered Jenna's shape and her tall figure. With her fair skin complementing the entire picture, she looked beautiful and regal. All eyes were focused on her. At that moment, she became a shining star, twinkling with dazzling light. Due to Javon's untimely death, they had changed the step where her father would walk her down the aisle. Sabrina would escort her and then place Jenna's hand in Hansen's. The moment Sabrina passed Jenna's hand to Hansen, he held it tightly. His wide and thick hand wrapped around her slender hand. Jenna's eyes turned red in an instant. She finally arrived at that long-awaited moment! Hansen lowered his head and looked at her affectionately. "Silly, don't be nervous. I'm here." He whispered in her ear to comfort her. The truth was, he was eq
The wedding was still going on. After the wedding ceremony, the newlyweds went back to their room in the hotel, ushered by a group of people. They sat on the bed to rest. Jenna held a bouquet of roses in her hands. The initial excitement and sentiment had faded, leaving only a sweet and happy smile on her face. Her smile was so charming that people could not look away from her. Hansen sat by the side and hugged her tightly, smiling from ear to ear. They changed into another outfit for the evening reception, looking as harmonious as ever. Trevor, Sara, and Marissa all shed tears. Even Sabrina and David were moved as they wiped their tears away. At that moment, perhaps many people were enlightened with certain lessons that life held in store for them, and they marvelled at the inconstant nature of life as well. Finally, when Hansen and Jenna appeared in the media room, the parade of their affection caused an uproar. "Young Master Richards, will Jenna be a st
"However, Sergio, if you would lend a hand, I may not end up in such a bad situation." Zoella said decisively, looking up at Sergio. "Really?" Sergio frowned and smirked. "Miss Yates, are you making fun of me? I am in the military and have nothing to do with business. Say, what exactly can I do for you?" "No, you can. It depends on whether you'll agree or not." Zoella nodded with certainty. Sergio laughed. "Zoella, you're putting me on a pedestal. Xanthe family only seeks to develop in the military, and we have no interest in the business. Besides, you also remember the 'little white rabbit' fight. Even if I want to help, it would be Jenna I would help. Why do you think it would be you?" When Zoella heard this, her eyebrows were raised, not seeming sad at all. She said with confidence, "No, things are different now. Your stand and benefits have changed. You won't be foolish enough to help Jenna. If I'm not mistaken, Richards Group stole a few deals away from the
"Sergio, let's call it a night. I hope our cooperation will go well." Zoella rose to her feet and reached out her hand elegantly. Sergio, slightly drunk, outstretched his hand and took hers. There was a deep and unpredictable smile on his face. Zoella got up and left. Sergio raised his head. On the TV screen, Hansen took Jenna's hand and left. Sergio's eyes narrowed and dimmed. In the study of the Xanthe family's residence. Sergio and Yadriel were having tea in the study. The Xanthe residence was allocated by the government. Although it was not magnificent, it was the standard for public servants. "Dad, do you think we can trust Zoella?" Sergio took a sip of tea. The strong aroma of Earl Grey made him take in a greedy breath. The father and son were fond of tea, and often they would discuss political affairs in the study, with tea as a refreshment. It was an important way for Yadriel to influence Sergio in politics for many years. Gradual
"Honey, you're home." Hansen stood up and scooped Jenna up, darting towards the master bedroom on the second floor. Jerry stood on the carpet, gaping. Just as he got to his feet, Hansen had carried Jenna up to the second floor before he could even greet his mother. Alas, it happened again! "Daddy is a meanie!" He thought. Every time Hansen saw Jenna, he would rush up to her and leave Jerry behind. If not for that, they would hug each other intimately, and that degree of intimacy was enough to jack up Jerry's jealousy along. Moreover, whenever Hansen was embracing Jenna, his gaze would be spilling steadfast affection. By then, Jerry would have ebbed into invisibility He was a miserable sight. Jerry had previously protested about it. Nevertheless, it was useless. His parents would just smile at him, and as soon as they turned their backs, they would be more affectionate and ignore him. Jerry now was thinner than before, because Jenna
"Mom, I want to eat scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and fried chicken wings," Jerry requested in his babyish voice. "Okay, you greedy kitty," Jenna said with a smile, pinching his nose. "Madam, the ingredients are ready. We're just waiting for you to start cooking," Aunt Ella said. "Okay, I'll be right there," Jenna replied with a smile. Aunt Ella fully supported Jenna's wish to insist on cooking for Hansen and Jerry. No matter how busy Jenna was, she insisted on cooking and watching as the father and son devoured them. Only then would she be at ease. The result was proven to be good. Jerry was now even more energetic. Not only that, even Marissa and Trevor had praised her a lot. Aunt Ella took in Marissa's and Trevor's increasing trust in Jenna. She was so genuinely happy to see the love between Hansen and Jenna. "Dinner is ready!" Jenna quickly brought out the hot, steaming dishes, and intentionally dragged her last word. Jerry let out a
"Oh, Young Master Richards, this is Mr. Garver's son, Honold Garver. He is a loyal friend and we have invited him to join us. I forgot to introduce him to you." David's father was currently in partnership with Honold's father, Sadiva. Obviously, he was trying to befriend Honold. After all, his father was about to retire. However, Sadiva was different. Sadiva was younger and had a great future in politics. "Mr. Richards, pleased to meet you." Honold greeted Hansen in an indifferent manner as if he was only doing it out of respect. Hansen's eyebrows furrowed for a second. He was no longer the reckless man he used to be. He would exercise self-restraint and keep his thoughts to himself. After all, he was married now, many things had to be taken into consideration for Jenna's sake. He didn't want her to worry. "Hello, Mr. Garver." He politely replied and reached out his hand. Honold slowly extended his hand and shook hands with him. Then, he withdrew his hand immedi
