Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen)
Chapter 95

Chapter 95

"Remember, work hard. Don't disappoint me," Hansen stared at Jenna's rigid face. He came overand wrapped his arms around her waist and smiled evilly, saying, "Of course, not only do you haveto do a good job in the company, but you have to be even better when you get home. Sleep with meand make me happy."

He deliberately emphasized the word "sleep", which frightened Jenna that she returned to hersenses. She was blushing and embarrassed!

Hansen burst into laughter.

"You mean that I'm in charge of the Marketing Department? What about Aria then?" Jenna asked ina daze. If she remembered correctly, Aria was the one who was in charge of the MarketingDepartment. Now that she was in charge of that, what was Aria's role? She was really puzzled andfull of doubts. Was he going to marry Aria and not let her go to work? Did he want Aria to livehappily while she slaved away? When she thought of this, she suddenly became dejected.

"You just have to do your job. Don't ask anything else," when Hansen heard her mention about Aria,he looked a little unhappy and said lightly. After saying that, he went straight to his desk and satdown. He turned on the computer and worked, without looking at her again.

If he didn't want to talk about it, so be it. She didn't expect much anyway. Jenna thought for a while,then turned around and walked out.

Soon, the news of Jenna's appointment as the Vice President of the company spread through thecompany. Everyone was talking about it, but Jenna's excellent performance at the last pressconference was evident to everyone, and there wasn't much disagreement about her appointment.

Jenna started to take over the Marketing Department of the company. Not only did the RichardsGroup sell luxury cars, they were also involved in the real estate industry, which were the hottest

and most popular industries of the day. They had business dealings in almost every industry, whichwas evidently shown in the marketing record she received.

She was going through the stack of information that was given to her. All the client information fromboth the Public Relations Department and

Marketing Department that the Richards Group dealt with were given to her. The information wasvery important to ensure a smooth management of the company.

Why did Hansen choose her? Was it really just out of trust?

Jenna still hadn't figured it out and it just didn't feel real.

However, she had spent three years working in America as a car designer in Rayan's company andas the distributor for the Asia market after all. It was no doubt that she had accumulated a lot ofworking experience. Although she looked delicate and beautiful, she had a wealth of experience.Wasn't Hansen looking down on her? She was going to prove him wrong.

She didn't need to spend much time in the Design Department. She was in charge of thatdepartment all along, so she didn't have to worry too much about it.

However, after a morning of sorting and analysis, it became clear that the Marketing Departmenthad a number of problems, both in terms of management and in terms of marketing and sales.

It was not that the Marketing Department was difficult to handle. In terms of luxury cars, she did nothave to worry. Although she was not familiar with the A city market, she was very familiar with theEuropean and American markets. Now that she had those orders from the press conference, therewas no need to worry too much about small domestic orders.

What was difficult was the real estate industry.

There was a big problem, which was the Camphor Tree Villa. The construction of this high end villawas currently on hold, with only the first phase being developed. Furthermore, this villa was one ofthe Richards Group's long term investments, which if developed properly, would build an evenstronger foundation for the Richards Group in A city. If this project failed, even if the Richards Groupwas rich, it would badly affect them financially.

She wondered whether Hansen had a solution. It was obvious that this problem must be solved!She frowned! However, what she saw next made her mind sink! The cars of the Richards Groupdominated the domestic sales, but their overseas sales were largely in the red. No wonder Hansenhad put all his effort into bringing her back to design luxury cars, regardless of the cost. It turned outthat this was the reason. She breathed a sigh of relief.

Even if the domestic real estate industry was making profit all year round, if the Camphor Tree Villawas not properly developed, it would still result in a deficit.

These two industries were the core industries for the Richards Group. It had been handed downfrom generations to generations. However, when Trevor took over the company, they were basicallybreaking even and did not continue to flourish as the previous generations once had.

Now all those projects that were churning in the revenue for the company were the new industriesthat Hansen had decided to venture into when he took over the company. Under his leadership, thecompany had been involved in many new industries such as restaurants, games, software and soon. All of which had good results, which could be seen in the marketing strategy handed over byMinnie.

One could imagine how much hard work and effort Hansen had put in when he first took over theRichards Group! He had not only brought Richards Group out of the doldrums, but in just threeyears he had slowly helped the company become one of the wealthiest companies, thanks to hiswise and fastidious approach.

Perhaps it was also because he realized that they cannot forget about the company's roots. Threeyears ago, he had the foresight to buy a piece of land in the Green Mountain Town and intended toconstruct high-end villas that were rare in the whole city and even in the world. It would have beensuch an ambitious goal, and if it had been developed successfully, it would not only have revitalizedthe old Richards Group properties, it would have brought the Richards Group into a period of glory.

However, the Camphor Tree Villa was a bombshell with an unpromising and uncertain future.

Jenna suddenly understood why Grandma Richards agreed to let Aria live in the Richards Manor.Obviously, Grandma Richards, who didn't like Aria, was wise enough not to offend Mayor McAdamsfor now.

It was a stop-gap measure!

However for her, it was a double-edged sword. For a moment, her heart sank!

At noon, Jenna ate while she watched the TV in her office.

A City's entertainment news headlines were overwhelmingly about Aria and she could see strikingreports at random!

The hottest upcoming movie of the moment, Rapunzel, directed by Director Cook, was officially inpre- production stage. The casting of the female lead, for which Director Cook was personallyresponsible, was now open to the public, starting with a prime-time slot on television.

The show was actually a warm-up to build up hype for the movie and for promotional purposes.

The major TV media all said that this movie was funded by the Richards Group and that the leadactress had been elected. The actress would be Aria, the woman whom the president of theRichards Group, Hansen, was going to marry. The so-called casting was just for show and hype.

The news alone was enough to bring the relationship between Hansen and Aria back to theforefront.

Jenna remembered that when she saw Hansen this morning, he was reading the newspaper. Atthat time, he so happened to be reading the entertainment section. So, was that really the case?

She flipped through all the Marketing Department documents and saw Aria's signature but therecent signatures had been changed to Hansen's. Did this mean that Aria was actually leaving theRichards Group?

When they left the Richards Manor this morning, she didn't see Aria following them out. So, whatwas Hansen planning to do?

Although she had many doubts running through her head, when she asked Hansen this morning, itseemed that he did not want to disclose anything. If he wanted to tell her, he would have done so.However, since he did not want to say anything, then there was no point in asking.

However, Jenna was in a good mood. She did not really care what Aria did, at least she didn't haveto run into her every day in the office and that alone was enough to put her mind at ease!

Jenna took over her role in the morning and swiftly called for a meeting right away in the afternoon.This was the first meeting Jenna had held ever since she was appointed and it involved everyonefrom both the Marketing and Design Departments.

As soon as she was appointed, she immediately appointed two new managers in the DesignDepartment. She promoted Perrie, who was just an assistant manager, and appointed Cornell, aveteran of the Richards Group, as the new managers. There was a manager for each of theMarketing, Public Relations and Sales Planning Department. She replaced all the assistantsassigned to each manager and further assigned them with different roles. She believed that

everyone should have more to do, so that there was a clearer division of labour and moreresponsibilities for each person.

Unconsciously, she switched the executives in both departments and repositioned all the peoplewho had been under Aria.

This move might seem unimportant to others, but it was crucial for Jenna. It would be much moreconvenient for her to do her job in the future. Except for Minnie, all the staff in the departmentsshould be able to do what she said.

As soon as she went back to her office, she summoned all the managers and asked them to giveher a brief run down about their jobs in hand.

Jenna sat in front of her desk. She flipped through the latest batch of design drawings handed overby the Design Department with ease. Because the models were mainly domestic cars, there werenot too many problems. She nodded her head in agreement with almost all of them, except for afew that were dismissed as superfluous. "Mr. Forbes, have these orders been handed over to theproduction team?"

"Don't worry, Ms. Murphy. It's all in production and we'll be able to see the results soon," Nathananswered confidently.

"Okay," Jenna nodded and took the report from Minnie.

Jenna looked up and asked, "Ms. Murphy, what is the Public Relations Department's main projectfor this week?"

Minnie seemed to be still reeling from the news of Jenna's appointment as Vice President of thecompany. She was so full of resentment that she didn't expect that this b*tch would be promoted tothe Vice President position so quickly and she had to report to her. She was very displeased.

Initially, her only way up was to depend on Aria, but things changed so quickly. Aria left thecompany and went off to do some sh*tty TV show.

What did all this mean? She was so resentful that she despised Jenna from the bottom of her heart!

"Well, at this stage, it's mostly about the Camphor Tree Villa and a couple of PR campaigns forgames," she answered lazily, not caring about it.

Jenna frowned. The problem with the Camphor Tree Villa situation was beyond the reach of thePublic Relations Department. As far as she knew, Aria was planning to use her father's, MayorMcAdams, influence to solve the problem. However, apparently she had already left the positionand this no longer had anything to do with her. She couldn't figure out what exactly Hansen had inhis mind.
