Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 13

But how could a feeble woman like her fight against Hansen's passion and powerful body? All Hansen wanted to do right now was to have her and possess her.

She played her trump card in a panic, "Aren't you in love with Aria McAdams, Hansen Richards? Aren't you going to marry her? How can you do this to her?"

Hansen froze and stopped ravaging her body. His senses gradually returned, and he raised his eyes which were scarlet red with desire.

That was when a slow and haunting ringtone rang through the car.

Hansen slowly let go of Jenna and stood up. He took out his mobile phone from his pant pocket. He frowned when he saw that Aria's name was displayed on the widescreen.

"Where are you, Hans?" Hansen answered the phone. There was a trace of pain in Aria's sweet and sugary voice.

"What's wrong? Aria."

"Hans, my stomach hurts. It hurts so much." Aria painfully exclaimed on the other side of the phone, "I want to see you, Hansen. Don't leave me behind."

Aria pleaded softly as she gasped from the pain.

Hansen froze with a strange expression on his face. He was reminded of a scene from three years ago, when Aria stayed up all night with him in his office to come up with a way to save the struggling Richards Group.

That was also when her stomach pains began. He could never forget how the excruciating pain tormented her, and how she desperatedly dinged onto him as she cried and screamed with a ghastly pale face. The memory was burned into him forever, and it overwhelmed him with guilt every time he remembered it. That was why he was so tolerant of everything Aria did.

"Aria, lie down first, don't move, I'll be there soon." Hansen gradually came to his senses. He put on his t-shirt as he consoled her and was about to turn around and run back to the club.

Something tugged at his thoughts as soon as he took a step. He looked down at the woman who was lying in the car seat and felt incredibly frustrated.

Jenna was silently lying on her side in the car seat like an injured kitten. Her clothes were a mess, and her bloodless face was scrunched up in pain. Her long eyelashes cast a soft shadow underneath, making her look even more fragile.

Hansen's heart skipped a beat, jumbling up his mind.

This god-d*mn woman needs to stop playing the innocent victim. He knew she was doing it to gain attention from men.

She seemed pure and lovely on the surface, but deep down, she was more cunning and fake than everyone around her! Something shifted in Hansen's eyes. After a moment of hesitation, he took off towards the club.

Glistening tears flowed out from Jenna's eyes. Her face was white as paper, but a hauntingly beautiful yet sorrowful smile appeared on it as she listened to Hansen's footsteps fade.

The truth was that Aria was the only love of Hansen's life. Always has been, always will be. She was nothing but a woman who was abandoned by him. Even though for a moment she dared to dream that what he did tonight meant that he still cared about her, even if just a little.

She was wrong.

He left immediately when he heard Aria's name and received her phone call.

When will she learn to let go of these ridiculous fantasies?

Jenna forced herself to get up and sorted out her clothes. She staggered towards the main road to stop a taxi and escape this place.

Aria was curled up on a bench on the first floor of the club. The lips on her agonized face were pale, and her hands were covering her stomach.

Minnie Murphy was crouched down beside her. When she saw Hansen hurrying towards them, she shouted excitedly, "Ms. McAdams, Mr. Richards is here!"

Aria was pleased, but she only grunted softly. The disappointment on her face was greater than the agony. She wanted Jenna to make a fool of herself tonight, but the last thing she expected was for Rayan Whalen to turn up out of the blue. A young man as handsome and successful as Rayan came all the way here to find Jenna and shower her with affection? Jenna got to show off big time, and put an unprecedented amount of pressure on Aria. Looks like it was not going to be so easy to get rid of Jenna.

It was pretty impressive that she got two of the most coveted men in the world to fight over her.

Aria felt her heartbreak when Hansen's face turned livid as he shot daggers into Rayan with his glowering eyes. Why would he act this way for another woman? Did Hansen have a change of heart? Did he fall in love with Jenna?

Hansen left her behind and walked past her with Jenna in his arms. He completely ignored her in that moment, as if she didn't even exist.

She chased him down the stairs with raging fire in her eyes. When she saw the refitted Hummer rocking back and forth not too far away, all the blood in her body froze. She was driven to the brink of madness as her stomach began churning a storm.

But Hansen rushed over as soon as she called him. A hint of color reappeared on Aria's pasty face as her lips curled into a smug smile.

He loved her and cherished her dearly. He rushed to her as soon as he knew that she was having a stomachache. She knew that Hansen couldn't be that heartless, she knew him better than anyone!

"Are you okay, Aria? How bad is it?" Hansen could see from a distance that Aria was curled up on the cold iron chair on the first floor of the club. She was holding her stomach with both hands. Hansen's chest tightened at the sight of her, and a sense of guilt washed over his heart. He ran to her and held her in his arms as he gently asked if she was okay.

With tears in her eyes and pain written all over her face, Aria wrapped her hands tightly around Hansen's waist and buried her face in his arms. "Hansen, I'm begging you, please don't leave me behind. My stomach hurts so bad."

"Of course, I'll never leave you behind." Hansen gently stroked her head with his large hand and stood up while carrying her. "Let's go to the hospital right now."

"Why did you go with that woman and leave me here alone, Hans? She's a succubus, even Rayan Whalen was seduced and manipulated by her. You don't know what she's capable of, don't mess with her." Aria turned her pale and miserable face towards Hansen and gazed at him with a heartrending expression.

Hansen trembled and tightened his embrace. There was a trace of shame in his eyes as he said gently, "I can't have others believe that I mistreat my employees."

Was that true?

Aria felt bitter in her heart, but she didn't want to say anything more. She just hugged him tightly as if she was afraid that he would fly off somewhere.

Hansen glanced at Minnie, who was standing on the side and looking lost, then said softly, "Your sister injured her hand. Take her to the hospital."

After that, he carried Aria away.
