At noon, Hansen walked into her office.
“Jenna, let’s go. We have a lunch date with Mom.” Hansen waltzed over to her and held her hand.
In just a few days, his eyes recovered with promising speed. He could almost make out Jenna’s face clearly. The truth was, he didn’t need anyone to support him when he walked, but he always made use of his injury to ask for Jenna’s characteristic special care.
He enjoyed her gentle care. Owing to his limited vision, Jenna often held his hand and gave in to him, whereupon it fed his ego because he could command her attention.
Marissa was pacing back and forth in the hotel, and her emotions were stormy. As soon as she saw Jenna, she stepped forward excitedly and took her hand. “Jenna, my child.”
She was thrilled with her visit to Srirano.
For starters, her only son’s mental state was the complete opposite from before. He looked refreshed, like a gentle spring breeze. His eyes had also recovered very well, he could almost see her then. This was something she had not expected.
On the other hand, Jenna was still alive, which mitigated her son’s pain. As a mother, nothing could be as joyous. Hence, her buoyant heart.
Jenna looked up at Marissa in a daze, as if she had once been familiar with her.
“Jenna, say hi to my Mom.” Hansen could see the unresponsive expression and baffled look in Jenna’s eyes. He hurriedly whispered in her ear.
Jenna snapped out of her trance and immediately called out crisply, “Mom.”
Marissa smilingly responded to the greeting. She took her hand and let her sit next to her.
Hansen had already told her about Jenna’s amnesia. Therefore, she was prepared.
“Jenna, my sweet little girl, you have suffered so much.” Marissa took her hand, and tears were banking at the brim of her eyes. Reminiscing about the past and her son’s bitter life, a lugubrious feeling inadvertently came over Marissa.
“Mom, it’s such a rare occurrence for our family to reunite. Isn’t it such a good thing? Shouldn’t you be happy?” Hansen knitted his brows slightly when he heard her cries.
Marissa was quick-witted. She immediately understood his meaning and wiped away her tears. She smiled and said, “Jenna, Hansen, come, let’s mark our reunion today with this meal. Your father doesn’t want to come. I initially wanted to drag him here so that he could take a breather. Just look at this. Srirano is really beautiful. It’s his loss.”
She couldn’t hide the joy on her lips as she said this.
Jenna felt warm. It turned out that her mother-in-law was a kind woman. Jenna was worried that Marissa wouldn’t receive her well. After all, she had disappeared for more than a year. She had feared that her mother-in-law would not accept her sudden reappearance, but then it seemed that this was completely unnecessary.
“Jenna, Hansen, how long are you going to stay in Srirano? Jenna should go back to see Jerry and her mother.” The family was having a good meal and had a good appetite.
“Mom, there’s no hurry. We still have something to do here in Srirano. I estimate that we’ll have to stay here for another while. Then, I’ll take Jenna back home,” Hansen immediately replied.
Jenna also nodded. After she organized Yintern Group’s car show, she should consider leaving. Steffan had also stated that he would not stop her decision.
“Mom, you can also stay here for a while. The scenery here is very beautiful. When I have time, I’ll take you around for sight-seeing.” Jenna smiled and suggested.
“Okay, sure.” Marissa smiled.
After lunch, Marissa returned to the hotel’s guest room. Hansen brought Jenna back to the presidential suite to rest.
Freezing rain began to pour as the evening progressed, the rhythm of the rain only picking up by the moment.
Jenna was sketching a blueprint in the office when Hansen walked in.
“Jenna, come on, put on this mink coat. I specially asked someone from Australia to send it to us.” Hansen knew that Jenna was especially afraid of the cold.
“Thank you,” Jenna expressed as she listened to the wind howling and the pattering rain outside. She felt warm.
“Here, put it on.” Hansen helped her drape on the coat. Although he couldn’t see clearly, the rosy mink coat looked very warm. He embraced her.
“Jenna, I have a contract to sign this afternoon. I have to go out for a while. After work, just wait here for me, and I will pick you up.” He touched her face and said softly.
“Okay.” Jenna smiled sweetly. “Take your time. I also have something to do today.”
“Alright.” Hansen hugged her and gave her a warning with a smile, “Remember, don’t flirt with other men while I’m away. Be obedient and I’ll give you a good reward tonight.”
As soon as he said this, Jenna’s face turned red. Of course, she knew who the other man that Hansen was talking about. This guy was really narrow-minded.
After the two of them cajoled each other for a while, Hansen followed Alvin out the office.
Jenna also got into the flow of her work.
By the time she raised her head subconsciously, it was already eight o’clock in the evening. Hansen had not come to pick her up.
Could it be that he had some matters to attend to?
She picked up the phone and dialed his number.
“Hansen, have you finished signing your contract?” Jenna asked on the phone.
Hansen’s voice rang out very quickly. “Jenna, there is about ten minutes left. I’ll be there soon. Wait for me.”
“Okay.” Jenna hung up and began cleaning up her desk.
After cleaning up her desk, she picked up her leather bag. It was about time, so she went downstairs in advance. She was famished.
Waiting downstairs, the rain started getting heavier and heavier, and she was shivering in the cold. Fortunately, the coat was able to keep her warm. Otherwise, she would not be able to stand it.
Standing at the sidewalk of the building, she was waiting to see the familiar black limousine come pick her up.
However, after who knew how long, there wasn’t a single trace of him.
She continued to wait for another ten minutes or so, but she felt so cold that her hands and feet were numb. She had to take out her phone and call Hansen. However, it kept being put on hold. After a while, she gave up and decided to call for a taxi back to the hotel. After all, it was not too far from the hotel.
She opened the umbrella, faced the wind and walked towards the street, waving her hand to hail a taxi.
Perhaps, it was due to the frigid weather, as the taxis were nowhere in sight.
Finally, she saw one. When she was about to wave her hand for it, it had already been occupied.
Just as she was starting to get a little anxious, a black van ploughed towards her. Before she could even figure out what was going on, the door of the van opened suddenly, and a tall black man came out of it. He rushed towards her, clasped his hands over her mouth, and hauled her into the van.
