“Jenna, if you don’t want to go to the hospital, then stay at home. Let the medical team check the baby for you.” As soon as he entered the door, he picked up Jenna and sat down on the couch, placing his big hand on her lower abdomen and gently stroking it.
Jenna felt nothing but profound weariness. She slightly closed her eyes and leaned against Hansen’s sturdy chest. When she listened to his calm heartbeat, she felt a strange sense of solace.
She wound her arms around his waist tightly and buried her face in his chest. She murmured, “Hansen, don’t leave me. Stay with me for a while.”
Her soft body fell pliantly into his embrace. Hansen hugged her tightly. When he heard her soft words, he felt an inexplicable excitement in his heart. At that moment, he felt an incomparable sense of bliss. His mind was blinded by this kind of happiness, so much that should a feeling of unease spring up from the depths of his heart, it would be automatically filtered away.
He liked this feeling, content and happy. He only wanted that moment to last forever.
He held her tightly in his arms, embracing her. However, deep in his heart, an unsettling feeling welled up, as if it was trying to destroy his happiness. He suppressed it, trying his best not to think about it.
“Jenna, when our child is born, I will hold the most magnificent banquet in the world for him and make him the happiest baby in the world.” He embraced her, buried his face in her arms, and uttered with unadulterated affection.
After a while, he did not hear Jenna’s voice, only the sound of her breathing. When he looked up, he found that Jenna was already fast asleep.
He smiled and noticed that her face was pale and gaunt. He couldn’t help feeling his heart in agony. He hoisted her up and walked to the bed. Until he put her on it, her hands were still tightly wrapped around him, devoid of the wish of letting go.
The corner of his mouth was raised slightly.
For fear of waking her up, he held her and fell asleep together. With one hand, he put the quilt over her body, and then put one hand touching her slightly swollen lower abdomen, and the other tightly held her in his arms. They hugged each other and fell asleep.
This was a good respite.
When she woke up, it was already afternoon.
“Honey, have you slept well?” Hansen’s black pupils shone brightly, and he was in high spirits. He asked Jenna, who had just opened her eyes, intimately.
After sleeping, Jenna was feeling much better, especially with Hansen keeping her company. The pleasant smell of his body endowed her with serenity, as if she had taken a sedative, and her mind slowly began to become clear.
After she woke up, the first people she thought of were Madam Lilian and Sara.
She had decided that she would try her best to make Sara accept Madam Lilian and see the mother and daughter reconcile with each other.
Sara was so pitiful, and putting status aside, Madam Lilian was also an old lady deserving of sympathy. She thought of the cautious and fearful expression on Madam Lilian’s face when she was comforting Sara in the hospital. In fact, Madam Lilian was also suffering deep down.
She wanted all of them to be happy as they were all her loved ones.
However, the premise was that she had to wait for Sara’s illness to stabilize.
After just a nap, she quickly made up her mind.
She thought that she should have told this idea to Hansen.
Just as she was about to speak, the phone at the bedside rang with an air of emergency.
Hansen reached out his hand and fetched the phone.
“Mr. Richards, bad news. Jerry is missing.” The voice of Larry came through the phone in a tearful tone.
“What?!” Hansen was shocked. He immediately shouted, “Larry, speak clearly.”
Jenna was lying on the bed when she heard Hansen’s shout. Appalled, she sat up and her heart skipped a beat when she heard him calling ‘Larry’. An ominous feeling immediately hit her.
“Mr. Richards, I was playing with Jerry at the Ocean Park. He was having a good time. Then, we went to the restroom. He insisted on going to the gents. I couldn’t follow him. So, I stood outside and waited. After waiting for a long time, he didn’t come out. Then, I called him again and again outside. He did not reply. I became flustered and asked the men who came out, but they said they didn’t see any kids in there. I was scared and immediately got a security guard to go in and looked for him. Then, we separated and looked for him, using the announcement. But our efforts are in vain. Jerry went missing for no reason.” Larry tried her best to speak properly through the phone. At the end, she burst into tears. Then, she apologised. “I’m sorry, Mr. Richards. I lost Jerry. I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry…”
Larry had already burst into tears on the phone. She was not only afraid, but also sad. After all, she had brought up Jerry for a long time. Right then he had disappeared. Her heart was burning like a fire, and she was in anguish.
Hansen’s face instantly turned pale. He clutched the phone tightly and blue veins popped out on his skin.
He was not afraid that he himself would face any danger, but he could not allow his loved ones to get into any accident, especially when Jerry was still a child.
At that moment, he was scared out of his wits.
“Larry, look around nearby. I’ll be right there.” He tried his best to calm down and ordered gravely.
After putting down the phone, he turned around.
His heart started to palpitate.
Jenna’s face was deathly pale as she stared directly at him. Cold sweat broke out on her forehead and the tip of her nose.
Her face was terribly blanched, and there was only despair and pain in her eyes.
“Hansen, tell me. Jerry, could it be that Jerry has gone missing?” she asked in a trembling voice. Her voice was both bitter and heavy.
Hansen’s heart throbbed painfully. Gradually, the pain spread to his limbs, as if there was a sharp knife stabbing at his heart.
“Jenna, don’t worry. It’s fine. With me here, Jerry will definitely be fine.” There was no way to hide such a thing from her. Furthermore, she was already very close to listening to the conversation. So, he could only reach out and try to comfort her.
“No, Jerry, my child.” Jenna let out a shrill cry, and her vision turned black as she fell limply onto the bed.
“Jenna, Jenna.” Hansen was heartbroken and bent down to pick her up.
He patted her and shouted outside, “Somebody, come over!”
Aunt Ella was in the next room, hanging Jerry’s clothes. When she heard the shout, she rushed over.
“Aunt Ella, have the medical team come over. Hurry,” Hansen shouted with his bloodshot eyes.
When Aunt Ella heard the anxiety in Hansen’s shouting outside, she knew that something must have happened to Jenna. Thrown out of the loop, she answered and immediately picked up the internal phone in the corridor and dialed a number.
Hansen anxiously took out his phone.
“Alvin, immediately get all the members of the Grand Eagles to the Ocean Park in Ekka Plaza to search for Jerry. ASAP.” After giving the order, he only felt that the hand holding his phone was becoming weak, as if his soul had been drained from his body.
How did Jerry disappear? Was this just a coincidence, or was someone pulling tricks from behind?
If someone had schemed against him on purpose, then who could it be, seeing that Yadriel and Sergio were already dead?
A woman’s face flashed across his mind.
Could it be her?
She had been thrown out of A City by him. Suddenly, he remembered what Jordan had said to him that day.
At that time, the police were searching the city for Zoella, who had committed all sorts of crimes. Could it be that she was the one who did this? At the thought of this, he felt a chill all over his body and his heart froze.
D*mn it!
How could he forget her?
This was definitely an oversight.
When he was like a cat on hot bricks in the room, Aunt Ella came with the medical team.
