Hannah held Jennifer's hand. “Let's drop the formalities. You can call me Hannah.”
Jennifer had assumed that Hannah, coming from such an influential family, would be arrogant and distant.
However, she was pleasantly surprised to discover that Hannah was friendly and approachable.
With a nod, Jennifer replied, “Okay, Hannah. Why don't you go take a hot shower? I'll find fresh clothes for you to change into.”
After Jennifer arranged for Hannah to go upstairs, Donald stretched lazily and headed to the bathroom on the first floor to shower.
The moment he stepped into the bathroom, Jennifer stopped him from closing the door.
Folding her arms, she gave him the once-over and asked curiously, “Tell me what happened. Why are your clothes wet?”
Donald had no intention of concealing the truth from Jennifer, so he disclosed the details of Hannah's kidnapping and his subsequent daring rescue mission at sea.
However, he made a conscious decision to omit the fact that Geraldine had provided him with data on Reagent H-13.
Donald considered Jennifer to be somewhat naive, and he realized that revealing this information might jeopardize her friendship with Geraldine and that was unnecessary.
Initially, Jennifer entertained the assumption that something had transpired between Hannah and Donald, but after hearing Donald's story, she grasped the magnitude of their near brush with death and the slim odds of their safe return.
“I'm sorry, Darling. I shouldn't have suspected you,” she said guiltily, avoiding eye contact with Donald.
“I'm sorry, Dorling. I shouldn't hove suspected you,” she soid guiltily, ovoiding eye contoct with Donold.
