But Hannah refused to succumb to her fate. She decided to attack the men right away instead of retreating.

"I want you to beat her up real good!" the leader ordered furiously while clutching his family jewels. "That bitch is pretty skilled in combat! Pin her down! Don't let her escape!"

"Don't worry, boss!"

Everyone flocked toward Hannah immediately.

She knew that she couldn't possibly tackle an entire group of men with just her fists. Still, she gritted her teeth just to clear her mind before using all of her strength to kick the first man away.

But another punch came swinging at her gut at that moment. Strong pain flared from her stomach, causing her vision to black out momentarily.

Hannah stumbled momentarily, allowing the man behind her to trap her arms.

"I thought you were a fighter, you bitch! Come on, hit me then!"

The leader had already recovered from the blow by then. At that time, he lit himself another cigarette and trapped it between his lips.

He then raised his h

    "It's easy to find a girlfriend, but it isn't easy to find a wife," Kenneth said frankly. He insisted on finishing his line despite Darren's murderous glare. "Especially a wife like Ms. Emerson. If you're filing for a divorce, I'm very much willing to be at your service.""There's no way this will happen."With a dark expression, Darren separated him from Hannah. "Mr. Sorsby, could you go somewhere else if you don't have anything else to say? Hannah's busy right now.""Tch, he's boiling with jealousy right now," Kenneth thought to himself. He was also jealous of Darren. How could he win Hannah's heart if he wasn't thick-skinned? She was already gorgeous, to begin with, but her talent only managed to make her even more captivating. The first thing one would notice when they first saw Hannah would be her looks. However, as time passed by, her looks would be one of her least significant possessions to them. Hannah's ability and talent were what made her unique. That was how she w

    "Then … Then does he have a son?"Jane tried hard to figure out what was going on. She forced a smile. "Do you want me to get to know his son?" At least marrying Samuel's son was better than marrying Samuel himself. However, Robert shattered her wishful thinking. "Yeah, you do have to get to know someone. But it's not Mr. Hoffman's son, but Mr. Hoffman himself."In fact, Samuel wasn't privileged enough to attend this event. However, he was the landlord for a few residential areas in western Hopeldon. Thus, things had been going extremely well for him. He divorced his ferocious wife, and he was widely sought after now. His worth was doubled. Anyone who wanted a piece of the pie in western Hopeldon would do anything to get close to him. Robert glared at Jane as he warned her in a low tone, "Behave yourself and don't offend him.""Are you out of your mind? Are you really doing this to your own family?" Jane couldn't help but shriek in silence. "He's so old and ugly, and he's ar

    Hannah was unavoidably tired from socializing for too long. She put on her coat and headed out to the banquet hall. It was already getting dark. Even the lights in the alleys nearby dimmed. Hugging herself, she breathed in the cold winter air. As the cold air seeped into her throat, her mind felt clearer. Right at that moment, she saw a slender figure appear briefly at the entrance of that dark alley. The figure went past the dim lights and headed straight for the alley. Hannah's heart skipped a beat. That figure looked incredibly familiar. What was she doing there at such a late hour? After a few moments of hesitation, she made a quick decision. She grabbed a broom the janitors left at the back door and trailed after the figure. Her heels clacked vigorously on the ground as she strode quickly toward the alley. When she finally arrived, only did she realize the alley wasn't a one-way alley. Instead, the alley branched out into several crooked paths.The dark alley resembled a

    "We've got her! Carry them to the car and let's go!"Before Hannah fully blacked out, she heard one of the three men shriek excitedly. When she regained consciousness, it was almost daytime. She opened her eyes, silently observing her surroundings. She was locked in a shabby room with extremely high walls. There were two small rectangular windows at the top. It was through one of these windows that the faint sunlight shone in, giving a rough indication of the time. The thick smell of gasoline in the air implied that this place used to be a factory. Such factories wouldn't be located in Hopeldon. They had to be in the suburbs. As Hannah worked these out quietly in her mind, she couldn't help but sigh. Oddly enough, she wasn't concerned about her current situation at all. Instead, her mind was occupied by something else. Darren must have been frantic since she disappeared in the middle of the night. As she recalled how paranoid he actually was under his forced composure, she

    Even during a reconciliation, Matthew relied on reprimanding his daughter and pointing out his daughter's shortcomings to establish his authority. Misty lowered her head with resentment as she replied softly, "Alright, Dad. I know I was wrong. My room ..."She fiercely closed her eyes as if not feeling the pain in her heart as she continued, "I'll just give it up."She didn't want the room that Hannah had used, even if it were returned."Thank you." Matthew finally showed a hint of a smile.He continued, "Haven't you always wanted to change the decor? After Hannah leaves, we can renovate your room and make it however you like. What do you think?""Thank you, Dad." Misty forced a smile and nodded. "I have no objections to letting Hannah have my room."Upon seeing Matthew's mood stabilize, Claudia frowned slightly as she said, "Still, Hannah may not necessarily stay overnight with Mr. Winchester in our home."At these words, Matthew's expression stiffened.He was well aware tha

    Jane had gone completely hysterical. She was full of pleasure. Cackling wildly, she twirled the fruit knife around. "Don't you try to lecture me. I don't want to hear it!""Killing us won't solve anything." Hannah's calm gaze was fixated on her. She spoke with poise, "Jane, getting yourself involved in murder is only going to make things worse. If you're dissatisfied, you should work hard and reclaim what you deserve, not resort to illegal acts.""Yeah!" Sheila nodded wildly. "Do you really want to spend the rest of your life in prison? Don't you want to experience love marry your prince charming and live happily ever after? Is it really worth it to risk your entire life over this?""You guys know nothing!" Triggered by her words, Jane bellowed. Her eyes were bloodshot. If she didn't put herself in this situation, she'd end up with nothing, let alone marrying and dating someone. She could only be with that disgusting Samuel, who was old, ugly, and fat. Her fate that awaited her

    The thought of Hannah in a devastated state and crying in despair thrilled Jane."Remember to take some pictures to show the Garners and the Winchesters. Show them how well we've treated Mrs. Winchester and Ms. Garner."Jane could no longer wait. As she strode out, she said, "Right, I'll leave them to you. I'll be back later."The men bellowed with laughter as they sent her off.Jane's departure didn't mean danger was far from over. Not knowing it was because of the cold or fear, Sheila was shivering all over. Her body, still feverish, scooted closer to Hannah. Her voice was trembling when she asked, "Ms. Emerson, what do we do? What will happen to us?" Her face was filled with despair. Since they were bound, they couldn't even fend off Jane, let alone these burly men. They stood no chance at all. Sheila would rather die than be humiliated by these people. Overwhelmed by anguish, she finally couldn't help but sob softly. Her face was pale. "Shh—" Just then, Hannah, who ha

This was a great feat considering that Darren had managed to maintain his purity after being with her all this time. Having just celebrated their marriage, he had finally enjoyed some moments of satisfaction, only to face the complication with Erica.  Lately, Hannah had been in low spirits. Darren wouldn't be so brutish as to insist on intimate matters with her when she was in such an emotional state. He had to suppress his desires.However, now she took the initiative to seduce him. For a man who had finally given in to his desires, it wasn't so easy to let go.  Demonstrating his unyielding nature, Darren showed Hannah that he was not to be trifled with. Carefully timing his actions, he eventually released her.  Hannah, now lying on the bed, had a gentle gaze with a faint blush on her face. Her cheeks rested on the pillo

    Even with their current financial difficulties, the atmosphere between them remained harmonious and warm.The smile in Hannah's eyes deepened a bit.Finding her uncle was undoubtedly a joyous event for her. After all, they hadn't been in contact for so many years, and confirming that Elvis' family members were reasonable and good people made her even happier."Grandma has never given up looking for you all these years, Uncle Elvis."Hannah briefly shared her thoughts. "I thought of taking you and Lilian to see Grandma directly to prevent her from overthinking.""Of course! Of course!"Jennifer laughed and agreed. She said, "If it weren't for my poor health and being hospitalized, I would have gone to see her too."Things were settled.Jennifer still had one more dialysis session in the coming days.

    Jennifee hadn't looked before, but as soon as she did, she was almost startled.Under the shock, she even failed to contain her voice and exclaimed in surprise, "Elvis?"  Her husband, who rarely got involved in affairs and was always practical, was now standing up excitedly. His eyes were fixed tightly on the two entering the room.  He seemed as though he was about to pounce on those people.  Lilian was also stunned. She couldn't help but reach out and grab Elvis' hand, her face carrying a hint of embarrassment.  She lowered her voice desperately and said, "Dad, what are you doing?"  She sensed that the eyes of the entire ward had turned their way under Jennifer's exclamation.  The extraordinarily good-looking couple also looked over.  Her cheeks turned red. She felt both nervous and embarrassed. She forcefully tugged on Elvis' hand and whispered urgently, "Dad, hurry up and sit down."  However, Elvis not only didn't sit down, but he took a step forward and called out

    At Hopeldon's top hospital, Elvis sat by the bedside as he watched the summer breeze rustle through the leaves outside the window. A look of realization crossed his face.  "Mom, I bought your favorite food."Just then, a clear and lively voice rang out.  A girl with twin tails briskly entered the ward while carrying a meal with a smile on her face. "I was lucky to find discounted meat. I bought some. Mom, you have to eat more."  The pale woman on the bed smiled faintly and nodded. "Okay, I'll eat more."  After that, Jennifer noticed that Elvis, sitting on the side, was still staring blankly out of the window while lost in thought.  Jennifer frowned. She said softly, "Elvis, set up the table. It's time for lunch. Elvis. Elvis?"  "Huh?"Elvis suddenly snapped out of his reverie. Noticing both his wife and daughter looking at him, he forced a smile.  He rubbed his hands and stood up. "Lilian, did you bring the food back already? Let's have lunch then!"    "Dad, what ha

    She gently touched the scars on her face through the veil and then, with a sweet smile, began typing on the keyboard. "It would be great if I could help you. I'll be waiting for you to marry me!"As she replied to the message, her phone vibrated again. Robert asked with concern, "How did you get hold of these documents? Are you in any danger? Your safety is the most important thing!"Seeing his genuine concern, Misty felt even more convinced that her choice was right. The smile on her face seemed impossible to fade.  She had done her research lately. Cosmetic surgery here was not particularly advanced, and her facial scars wouldn't be perfectly repaired even with surgery. Meanwhile, Arovia was renowned for its excellent plastic surgery industry. Although dealing with her facial scars would be troublesome, new technology could provide a complete recovery. The only deterrent was the daunting cost.  No matter how regretful Matthew might feel, he wouldn't spend such a large s

    She was even draped in a thin windbreaker that covered her from head to toe.Despite the light and thin fabric, it was an autumn windbreaker. Wearing it seemed unsuitable for the current season. "The car and the house both have air conditioning. How could I get heatstroke?" Misty's smile widened.    Her fingers entwined around the belt of the windbreaker at her waist and gently pulled it twice. She spoke softly, "But since you want to see what's inside, I'll take it off, okay?"  Following that, she pulled off her belt before Cedric.  The fabric of the windbreaker was silky. After the belt came off, she shuddered, and the windbreaker slipped down from her shoulders.  She wore a semi-sheer dress that draped over her skin, gently showcasing the contours of her figure in a subtle and alluring way.  Then, she raised her hand and took off her hat. Her long hair was neatly arranged behind her head, revealing her forehead and a pair of seemingly innocent eyes.  Below her eye

    Just as she wished, Cedric felt an immediate dryness in his mouth.  As the male protagonist in the book, he had indeed lived a smooth life without experiencing many setbacks.He was always the object of admiration by others since he was young.When had he ever bowed his head to anyone?  Even when he failed in the competition for the heir of Garner Group, he remained the second young master of the company. No one dared to say much in front of him.  Only Diana was different.Since that day, Diana had suddenly become completely different.  The way she looked at him no longer held admiration, but instead, it was cold, as if she was scrutinizing him.  Although she still lived with him and would occasionally show him her gentle side, that sense of discordance grew stronger.  The previous Diana used to be completely submissive to him. She would believe and actively solve all his problems.  But now?He seemed to have become a plaything in her hands.He was summoned at will a

He wiped his face in silence before saying, "Of course, no problem. Not only did you guys just help me, but finding my family has also been a long-standing wish of mine. I'm willing to cooperate with whatever you need me to do."  He hesitated for a moment and then added in a low voice, "I believe your wife's grandmother is really old, am I right? From what you just said, it seems her health is not great. Maybe we shouldn't disturb her before getting the results."  He smiled bitterly and said, "I'm in my prime.

    Hannah didn't expect him to also have felt a sense of familiarity.Upon hearing that, she felt her heart skip a beat, feeling like the truth was gradually coming to the surface.She actually looked a lot like Eleanor.If the middle-aged man was really her uncle, even if he had been lost since childhood, wouldn't he still have memories of his biological sister's appearance?"May I ask if you are a native of Hopeldon? Were you born here?"She pursed her lips, staring at him before asking in rapid succession, "Who else is in your family? Are your parents still alive?"She asked many questions in one breath, sounding urgent and nervous.For someone she had only met for the second time, asking such questions seemed overly intrusive and might make people uncomfortable.But she couldn't care less now.Finding her uncle had been her grandmother's wish for many years.As she grew older, Hannah didn't want her to have any regrets in this life.The middle-aged man was also a little sur
