"That means that he didn't care about your status. I'm sure he'll still accept you. Believe me, nothing is impossible. I'm sure you were well aware that Richards Group had oppressed the Yates Group, and it led to my father's death. So, if you want to thank me, try your best to get close to Hansen and become his lady. Let Jenna misunderstand it. You need to know that Jenna isn't as noble as you think she is. She may have used to be one, but her current situation is similar to yours. If she was able to marry Hansen, then so can you. What's more, I'm sure you fancy him. You should be confident in yourself. It's normal for a rich man to find a mistress. As long as you can win over Hansen's heart, you can live a rich life without worry. If you really want to repay me, then do as I say," Zoella said eagerly, looking at Liya with hopeful eyes. Liya understood immediately. Zoella was trying to bring down Richards Group and Hansen. She was merely her pawn. Zoella wanted to use her to get
"Rest, Jenna. I'll take you to the beauty salon later. There will be an important banquet tonight. The guests are all from upper-class circles. We'd better be well prepared," Hansen said after lunch at Collier Manor with Jenna. Banquet? Jenna froze. She recalled him mentioning it the previous day. It seemed that she could not escape it. Truth be told, she never liked attending these banquets. It was hard for her to force a smile. Jenna had been busy at work for the past two days. Hence, she was really not in the mood to attend the banquet. However, as a member of a rich and powerful family, she had to. She had to be cautious all the time, appear reserved and noble, or her husband's reputation would be at stake. This was the most tiring thing for Jenna. It was one of the reasons she was not willing to come back with Hansen when they were in Wullen Town. This kind of life was too exhausting. All she wanted was a simple life. She pouted and followed Hansen to the b
"Jenna, you should have a chat with Hannah. I'll come looking for you if I need to. There is something else I have to attend to." Hansen was worried that Jenna would be bored. However, since Hannah was there, it would be easier for her. Before leaving, he said to Hannah with a faint smile, "Miss Adames, my wife is in your hands now. You can say goodbye to your cafeteria if anything happens to her." Hansen's arrogant tone made Hannah exasperated. Just because Jenna was her best friend, he kept threatening her with her cafeteria. Yet, now he was acting so high and mighty in front of her. "Hansen, hold up." Just as Hansen was about to leave, Jenna pulled him to the side and whispered, "Don't drink too much. You've already had one too many. Also, we should leave as soon as we can. I don't want to stay too late." Hansen listened attentively, then he smiled faintly as he put his hand around her shoulder and said, "Don't worry. I'm used to this. Go ahead and have some fun."
Hannah looked at her seriously. Her eyes were filled with joy as she finally let her guard down and all her worries were washed away. Their friendship meant the world to Hannah. Hannah had to admit it, Jenna was much braver and dedicated when it came to love. When she fell in love with Hansen, she loved without any restraint. However, when she decided to give up, she ran away from him as far as she could. No matter how hard he pursued her again, she was indifferent towards him. She stuck to her decisions, no matter what. Compared to Jenna, Hannah who saw herself as a master of love had to admit, she suffered a lot because of her concerns and hesitations. Thinking about this, Hannah let out a deep sigh. "However, you should still thank me. If it weren't for me, how could you get to know such an excellent man like Rayan?" Jenna smiled. Hannah blushed. She held Jenna's hand and said with a serious tone, "I'm really glad you think that way. In fact, I've
"Since it has nothing to do with us, we'd better find something else to do. I have a feeling this banquet will not end until midnight and it's only eight o'clock now. Besides, there are some people I really don't want to meet," Jenna said with a smile as she sat lazily. "Well, let's go." Hannah also stood up, but her eyes were darting around. "Hey, since we're together, you can't go looking for a man." Jenna reminded her. "I don't know what you're talking about." Hannah was still looking elsewhere. "Let's take a look at the boat over there." Several small boats were docked by the lake, and some people had already taken them for a spin. The two of them walked towards that direction. "Would you like to get on?" Hannah asked as she took a look at the boats. "Forget it. With you being so distracted, I'm afraid we might drown." Jenna expressed her worries and thought of something else. "Is Rayan going to be here today?" Hannah's face turned red inst
"Jenna, are you alright?" Sergio asked with concern. "I'm fine." Jenna shook her head. Since that person moved so swiftly, it must have been premeditated. She would not be able to find anything even if she wanted to investigate further. Besides, this is a blindspot and there were no cameras in sight. She could only blame herself for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Jenna shook her head in denial and didn't want to think further. "Thank you, Sergio. I still have some matters to attend to." She didn't want to stay there any longer. "Jenna, let's have a chat," Sergio said with a smile and tried to persuade her to stay. His charming smile and gentle voice made Jenna feel at ease. Jenna relaxed. She didn't have any special feelings for Sergio, but he didn't make her feel particularly disgusted. She smiled and said, "I've been here far too long. The only reason I came here was to get away from the crowd." "Yes, there are indeed a lot of pe
Sergio stood in the darkness and watched the couple leave. A hint of coldness flashed in his eyes. "Not involved with politics? Do you think this will prevent the century-old foundation of the Richards family from being harmed?" "Huh, I'm afraid you're dreaming." "Even if the Richards family wishes to find a path free of any influence, it would be improbable." Sergio thought. The smile on the corner of his mouth was getting colder and colder. "Hansen, are you angry? I really came here with Hannah. I only met Sergio much later," Jenna muttered. He had misunderstood her relationship with Sergio back in Wullen Town. Now, she was afraid of raising his suspicion. Hansen was easily jealous. "Silly girl, you are my wife now. Why should I be angry? I believe everything you say." Hansen reassured her with a smile. A broad smile appeared on his face, devoid of any misgivings. His joyful appearance was completely different from the suspicious appearance s
"Madam Lilian, it's rare for you to visit this place. I have prepared a feast based on A City's culture. Have a taste of our hometown dishes. It will still be noon when you return to Europe." Yezon walked over and invited her. He had personally asked Madam Lilian to come over. She would only be here for three hours. After that, Madam Lilian would have to leave the country to attend an important meeting in the afternoon. Madam Lilian had attended the banquet out of respect for Yezon. Therefore, he prepared a meal consisting of the local specialties of A city for her, hoping that she would like it. "Alright, thank you." Madam Lilian thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. "Tell you what, you all can have dinner with me." "Don't worry, Madam Lilian. I have prepared sufficient dishes." Yezon added, "This way, please." As he spoke, he held her hand as they walk towards the long dining table. Waiting at the sides of the table stood waiters, bar
