However, at this time, Zoey was staring at her with a pair of innocent eyes; her face was full of sincerity that Jenna could not refuse.
Jenna was really unwilling in her heart so she tried to force a smile and said, "Zoey, I'm not good at giving comments, and I'm also busy with something else. You can ask Mr. Richards to go with you."
Although she spoke in a low voice, her answer was straightforward enough, making it clear that she was refusing.
"Jenna, please accompany me, OK? I want to buy some beautiful clothes. I heard from Hansen that you were in this country for three years. You must know which places sell beautiful clothes, and your clothes are also very beautiful. Will you please accompany me?" Zoey actually stood up and walked toward her, shaking her arm while begging her.
Jenna was at a loss now and thought about it. Would Hansen want her to be the third wheel to the both of them?
He would be unhappy if she did so.
Looking up, facing Hansen's faint eyes, he seemed to agree with Zoey too, and he didn't seem to mind her being the third wheel.
Seeing Zoey beg her, she had no choice but to nod her head and agree. However, her gaze at Hansen was with somewhat hatred.
He was the one that wanted to date her, but he asked Jenna to go along and made her feel uncomfortable. He could actually speak up and ask her not to go, but he chose to keep quiet and not say anything. He was indeed hateful.
After dinner, Jenna drank a glass of water, sat for a while, then went back to the room. She took a shower and went to bed really early.
Hansen and Zoey were still playing games in the living room and their laughter could be heard from time to time. They seemed to be having a fun time together.
Jenna buried her head in the quilt and didn't want to hear their laughter. However, their laughter was so loud and joyful, it was as if they did it on purpose so that she could hear them. It was really difficult for her to ignore them.
She was feeling sour and could only toss and turn on the bed. She had already taken a nap in the afternoon. It was even harder for her to fall asleep now. Hansen and Zoey were having a good time in the living hall and there was no place for her at all.
She had no choice but to sit up and open her laptop and then she started working on the car model design.
However, she couldn't concentrate no matter what. What was worse was her inner discomfort. Even when Aria used to pester Hansen in the past, she was sad too. However, Aria was arrogant and she was not the type that Hansen would like. And at that time, she was angry instead of being jealous. Even though she felt uncomfortable, she could still feel Hansen's unintentional coldness toward Aria. She also felt more confident in herself seeing how Hansen treated Aria.
However, now, when facing Zoey, she now realized that her heart was full of jealousy. She felt sour and very uncomfortable.
After all, she could tell that Hansen really loved this innocent and beautiful girl. The love on his face and eyes was so obvious that anyone could tell.
Hansen loving her was more in line with his personality.
Staring at the laptop, Zoey’s sincere smile filled her mind. Zoey's eyes flickered with a sly and playful smile, but they were so clear and pure that she could make people fall in love with her.
Jenna felt that Zoey's face looked familiar for a moment, as if she had seen it somewhere, but for a moment, she couldn't remember where she had seen her.
Feeling bored, she closed the laptop and laid sullenly on the bed. Moments later, she seemed to have fallen asleep. In a daze, she returned to her childhood when her father took her to the banquet and met Grandma Richards as well as the gloomy handsome boy who was standing beside her.
It was the first time she saw him. He was so handsome and elegant. She didn't hear Grandma Richards's question at all and she just looked at him shyly.
However, his eyes were only looking at a place outside, smiling; he did not look at her at all.
Later, as long as she met him, she couldn't help paying attention to him, only to realize that his eyes would always look at the girl in a white dress who was standing outside; his eyes were full of affection.
The girl was very well- behaved and very young, much younger than both of them. Her eyes were very attractive when she laughed, and she was very beautiful.
Jenna suddenly woke up. Her eyes were wide open in the dark.
She remembered.
The girl whom Hansen was staring at back then was Zoey Delia.
The same Zoey she met today.
They had known each other a long time ago, and he was still very young back then.
Hansen was already interested in her at that time.
Yet, no matter what Jenna did, Hansen would never fall in love with her. He would set his sights on another girl, may it be Aria or Zoey, or whichever girl he was going to come across in the future.
In his heart, Jenna was really nothing. There wasn't even a corner that was reserved for her.
If Aria was a great threat to her, then this little girl named Zoey who was at least five years younger than her, could destroy her directly.
Her heart was so cold.
It was late at night, and the house was very quiet. It seemed that they were all asleep.
Jenna tossed and turned over and over again. She was no longer sleepy.
The girl's unconcerned laughter filled her mind, which made her feel uncomfortable, and tears were flowing out unconsciously.
She didn't sleep much that night.
When Jenna woke up in the morning, she realized that her eyes were red with dark circles around her eyes. She was a little flustered. She was afraid that Hansen would be suspicious when he saw her. His sneering and sarcastic face appeared in her mind, making her even more uncomfortable. After applying heavy eyeshadow and foundation, she made sure that it was not so obvious before she went for a walk in the backyard.
The morning sun slowly rose from the horizon, covering the earth with a layer of gold. Birds and pretty flowers could be seen everywhere, and the air was very fresh. Such a beautiful morning had driven away the haze in Jenna's heart.
After walking around the entire garden, she returned to the front lawn.
She sat on the recliner, however, after a while, she heard the doorbell. NôvelDrama.Org © content.
Looking up, she saw a person who looked like he was a native standing at the fence of the lawn wall, waving at her with a newspaper in his hand.
It turned out that the person who delivered the newspaper was here. Flora should be preparing breakfast at that time. Jenna stood up and walked toward him.
"Thank you."
She took the newspaper and smiled politely at him. The young man gave her a bright smile, winked at her and left on his bicycle.
Jenna smiled. She was bored anyway, so she sat on the recliner and read the newspaper.
The newspapers were in a different language, but it was not a difficult thing for Jenna to read because after all, she was a multilingual person.
She was reading slowly and suddenly her eyes were wide open. She unexpectedly saw a news report about Green Mountain Lake in A city.
The report said that the beautiful Green Mountain Lake had one of the best geographical locations in A City. It was so close to the oceans and mountains thus they also had a special water quality. Researchers had found a very special species in the lake. It was said to be an endangered species that had been on earth for millions of years and was first discovered back in ancient times. The news report was accompanied by photos as well as evidence from scientists.
Jenna was surprised. Although Green Mountain Lake was not very big, it was also not a small lake. The lake was calm, the water was clear, and it was surrounded by mountains and seas. The water
quality there was really good, but was this special species really found there? How could she not know about it?
Turning to the other page, there was another piece of news, but this piece of news was even more outrageous. It even reported that a sea monster was found in Green Mountain Lake.
Jenna was even more surprised.
Only a few days had passed since she left A city, but so many rare species had been found at Green Mountain Lake, and she had never heard of them before. It was too amazing and impossible. She thought that it must be someone else who was spreading rumors.
She shook her head and smiled. Suddenly, she thought of something and her heart skipped a beat.
"Miss, it's time for breakfast. Young Master and Miss Zoey are already awake," Flora walked out of the house and told her.
Jenna came to her senses after hearing Flora's voice. She then kept the newspaper and walked towards the living hall.
Zoey had changed into a fashionable dress, tied her hair into a ponytail, and sat beside Hansen, looking refreshed. Hansen's hands were on her shoulders and a friendly smile was on his face.
"Jenna, good morning." Seeing Jenna walk in, Zoey smiled sweetly at her and greeted her loudly.
"Good morning," Jenna had a lot on her mind, and responded faintly. It was considered a greeting to both of them. She especially put the newspaper at the corner of the coffee table. She knew that Hansen had a habit of reading the newspaper in the morning so she wanted to see his reaction after reading the news. Green Mountain Town was considered his territory, and the Green Mountain Villas also belonged to the Richards Group. After reading such a news, wouldn't he have some reaction to it?
However, Hansen only cared about Zoey. The two were intimate, and there was not much reaction from him. He did not even take a look at the newspaper.
"Jenna, we must shop the whole day today. If you are fond of anything, just tell me, and I will make Hansen pay for you." Zoey smiled happily. It seemed like she did not know about Jenna's relationship with Hansen at all.
Jenna just smiled lightly and did not speak.
"Jenna, what cosmetics do you use?" She asked curiously.
Jenna was in a moment of embarrassment. In order to cover the dark circles, she had to apply some foundation, but she didn't expect Zoey to ask about this.
"I'm not accustomed to using those," Jenna avoided her, dodged her gaze, and responded calmly.
"Your skin is very good, but she has dark circles under her eyes. It's a pity. It seems like you didn't sleep well last night. Did you?" Zoey asked innocently.
Jenna felt annoyed that she purposely talked about this. She became upset early in the morning because of the question, which made her even more uncomfortable. She wanted to get angry, but the little girl was so innocent. Zoey was just caring about her and had no evil intentions.
It's just that her anger was really accumulating and she had nowhere to release it. She accidentally looked at Hansen and met his probing eyes, making her cheeks flush with embarrassment.
