So, if Hannah's guess was right, the person who reported her for cheating must also be the one who slipped the answer sheets into her backpack earlier.One of the students went pale immediately before looking down at their feet.How could he be blamed for his idiocy? Who would have thought that Hannah would call the police just because she was accused of cheating? The students in Cromer Academy would never think of doing that, that was for sure!Ms. Rochester was silent for a moment. Having made up her mind, she gritted out, "Cory Feathers, come here right now!"Cory, who was praying fervently for Ms. Rochester to leave him out of the conversation, shuddered immediately upon hearing his name. He stood up immediately, his complexion already ashen.The students in the classroom stared at him right away, which stressed him out. Still, Cory could only walk over to the podium with his head hung low. "Ms. Rochester …"Cory was a tall and thin young man with average looks. He was consid
"Stop lying to yourself! Hannah is good at fighting, but that doesn't mean she's also good at studying!"Darren's gaze grew frosty when he noticed some netizens attempting to mislead the majority of the netizens in the comment section. He said coldly, "Just because you're on the Internet doesn't mean you're granted immunity from this nation's laws."Winchester Group is constantly monitoring everyone's comments. Some of you will eventually pay the price for what you posted on the Internet. Also …"Once Darren was done issuing his warning, he rapped his knuckles on the desk, a murderous glint now present in his icy eyes. He turned to glare at Cory as he snarled out, "You there, even if you touched the answer sheets just to check the contents, how are you going to explain the fact that you're the one who uploaded the video of the so-called transaction?"Did you see my wife cheating with your own eyes, or did you decide to lodge a report to your teacher after taking the video?"Cory
"Is there anything else?"Morgan asked as she shot her a complex look, posing this question on behalf of the netizens.Now that it seemed like everything had been settled. Cory was also brought away by the police for questioning. She had already proven her innocence, so what else was there of importance?The netizens were puzzled at first. However, when she suddenly approached the camera, they all became frenzied. "Oh my god! She still looks so good with such a high-resolution camera!""Her beauty is unreal …""I'm in love with her! Go on, Mr. Winchester, take it out on me!""My screen's dirty, I need to take a good lick off it.""Babe! Stop fooling around and study! I'll pick you up later tonight.""Hey, did you see the murderous intent in Mr. Winchester's eyes?"The vibe became lively in an instant. Everyone was captivated by Hannah's beauty. She didn't expect everyone to be so active. After being taken aback for a while, she smiled.Displeased, Darren narrowed his eyes
"Wow … She's so ruthless!" Some netizens exclaimed when they saw the paper Morgan chose. They couldn't help but inhale sharply. Morgan chose a paper that was known to be the most difficult test paper of all time. When the paper was released two years ago, it was a tragedy for the students. A lot of them came out of the exam hall in tears. It was already considered extremely impressive to achieve an accuracy rate of 80% for this paper. The teachers, who regularly studied these materials, knew what Morgan had up her sleeve. They were speechless. Although they clearly knew Hannah's grades were genuine and the academy didn't engage in any cheating, it was still ridiculous for her to start with this paper. Everyone was in utter disbelief. Even those who had looked up the score of the top scorer that year this particular paper was released couldn't help but come back, trying to talk Hannah into giving up on this paper. "Isn't it too much to score an accuracy rate of 80% for this
It was an honor for the academy to have Hannah. She was such a bright student. Elijah was very busy as well, so he quickly left with the other teachers. The lecture hall soon became empty, with only a few people still packing their things. Hannah's gaze was fixed on the corner as she walked over there. Misty was there, looking completely lost. "Are you very disappointed?" Hannah smirked scornfully as she saw Misty in this state. She said with disdain, "Is this very disappointing to you?""I—I don't know what you're saying." Misty's face instinctively paled. As her fingers brushed past the mask on her face, she shifted her gaze away in haste. "What do you mean?""I said, are you disappointed because I wasn't affected at all?" Looming down on her, Hannah sneered. "Misty, you're only good at stirring up trouble and adding fuel to the fire. These are the only tricks you're best at."She found it amusing and absurd. Was this what the protagonist of the book would be like? In th
Instinctively, Misty attempted to cover the marks on her face. She couldn't bear to show herself in such a miserable state to Hannah. Even more so, the last thing she would want her to know was that the paternal love she had always been proud of was nothing at all. Her lips were trembling, yet she forced herself to put on a brave face. "You … you can't do this. No matter what, he's still your father. How could you do this?""What? Do you think I'm still obliged to accept his patriarchal abuse? Just because I'm his daughter?"Hannah snorted. She found it both ridiculous and ironic. With her eyes locked on Misty, she said, "I'm more curious about this though. It's not common for people like you to really respect your father."Even after being slapped, she still pleaded for the sake of the Emerson family and Matthew. What was she thinking? Nonetheless, this had nothing to do with Hannah. She said coldly, "Let Matthew enjoy his last few days."She wouldn't forget how unsafe she h
Her expression was proud yet radiant. It was rare for her to be this playful. Darren smiled and played along with her. He lowered his head, kissing the back of her hand sincerely. "It is my honor, Your Majesty. However …" He suddenly rose and leaned into her. His tall and imposing figure loomed over her, casting a strong presence. His strong arms were propped on the chair she was sitting in, as if he was locking her into his embrace. Darren, who was always so dignified and gentle before her, was trying to show his true colors. "Just a kiss on the hand isn't enough."His gaze was fixated on her red lips. He was no longer hiding his strong desire for intimacy. Huskily, he slurred, "My Queen, it's time for me to claim my reward."His attractive face leaned closer as the sexual tension between them grew more intense. Although he appeared assertive, his moves were deliberate, leaving her ample time to consider. It seemed that if she were to stop him, he would cease his actions.
"The world might be unfair, but it's up to us to change it." Darren smirked. "If the heavens only favor one or two individuals, then the heavens don't live up to their name." He sounded proud and dignified, as if he was capable of crushing any obstacles that came his way. It seemed like even if an apocalyptic event occurred, he would face it head-on. What he didn't say was that he even thought fate was fair sometimes. Perhaps all his previous misfortunes were meant to bring the immense luck of him meeting Hannah. Hannah blinked slowly. Something in her mind cleared up. It seemed like she had been too constrained by the book.The book revolved around Misty and Cedric's love story, and the side characters were only there to serve them. However, the world was never as simple as it was depicted in the book. The characters that weren't mentioned in the book were real; the food was real, and the scent of the flowers was real as well. Darren, who was only briefly mentioned in the boo
Darren didn't let her off easily in the end. Darren, being in his prime years, had maintained his purity and had never been involved with other women. 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. Thus, their meeting was scheduled three days later.Hannah and Darren didn't stay much longer. After arranging for Jennifer to move to a single room, they left.Before they took
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 was just a poor guy with nothing but debt to his name.He had tried to recover his past memories and find his roots.He had been searching for decades, and even after getting married and having a daughter, he continued searching while struggling for a living.He never expected that just when he was gradually forgetting about this matter, life would suddenly take a new turn.This seemed a bit too dramatic. 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. Even if the outcome disappoints me, it's fine. But old people
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
