Her anger didn't faze Hannah at all. She was completely expressionless. Her locks fell gracefully on her back, highlighting her dazzling appearance. Her beauty was too much for one to take in.

"Hannah," Darren called out to her. His heart sank, feeling a bit uneasy. Swallowing hard, he stood up and gazed at her. He wanted to say something, yet nothing came out of him.

Only then did Hannah lift her gaze and glance at him. It was as if she could see through his dark and evil intentions. He clenched his fists tight as he remained silent.

"The microphone." Hannah extended her hand. Her hands were like art. Her nails were beautifully manicured, and her skin was flawless.

For some unknown reason, the emcee felt like picking up the microphone and giving it to her. It felt right to do so, as she naturally deserved to be served by others. However, someone did so before him. A tall figure bent down first.

Darren picked up the microphone and cleaned it meticulously with a handkerchief. He

    However, Hannah didn't stop. The microphone was in her hand as she glanced at the flashlights below calmly. She smiled faintly as she said, "I have a perfect relationship with Mr. Winchester. Hence, I don't want anyone else to disturb us. And I also hope there won't be any more baseless nonsense like this. I'm deeply troubled by it.""No, it shouldn't be like this …" Nigel howled."Hannah, stop this! You're just saying these things out of anger, right? I know I was wrong, please stop this! Can we start all over again, please?"His heart was throbbing in pain. It was like someone had torn his heart into shreds. How could she be so ruthless to him? "Nigel, did you not hear what she said? She literally doesn't give a damn about you!" Catherine cried as she threw herself on him. "She doesn't even love you, so why bother? What good do you see in her? Why can't you love me instead? I've loved you for so many years, yet you're throwing me under the bus over her? You've only known her

    The moment Timothy saw Darren and Hannah come out from the Golden Palace, he couldn't help but grin. His grin was somewhat sinister. His gaze was murderous, mockery and hatred lurking in his eyes. He looked completely different from his old self at Shaferche. Back then, he was a meek, middle-aged gentleman. Hannah nodded slightly at him when she lifted her head. Their eyes met across the road. Both of them didn't say a word. Yet, they somewhat reached a common ground and soon after, they shifted their gazes away. Darren stood quietly by the side. Only then did he open the car door. Hannah lifted her gaze and shot a quick smile at him. After they both got in the car, they left swiftly. The scene only became more chaotic upon their departure. The journalists were desperate for a scoop of exclusive news from them. They couldn't care less and dashed toward Nigel, surrounding him in the middle. "Mr. Moore, you said you've been fond of Ms. Emerson for a long time. Have you known

    Initially, Harold thought it would only be a matter of time before the Langleys and the Moores merged as one family. Hence, they had been working closely. Although on the surface they still seemed like two separate companies, they were closely connected. Causing a rift would be detrimental to both families. There were too many projects involved. How could they clear things up when almost everything was entangled?The expression on Harold's face changed slightly. Fiona covered her mouth as she couldn't help but sob bitterly. Harold worked painstakingly for his company. Not only was it important to him, their family depended on it greatly. However, Catherine was also equally precious to her. "Mom, stop crying. I genuinely like Nigel. I'm satisfied with marrying him." Catherine's tears came to a stop instead. She bit her lip as she stated firmly, "I believe Nigel was just momentarily confused by that bitch. Sooner or later, he will come back to his senses. I'm still young, and I st

    Sensing Catherine nudging him, Nigel opened her eyes in a daze. He glanced at her. He was already drunk. The world seemed upside-down and blurry to him. His face was flushed as well. After some time trying to make up who was before him, he murmured, "Cat?""Nigel, you've had too much to drink," Catherine said gently, biting her lip. "I'll bring you home.""Home? I'm not going home!" Nigel yelled. Infuriated, he hollered, "I'm not going home! They'll only force me into marrying someone I don't even like! They don't even consider my feelings! I'm not going back!"Catherine knew he was talking about her. Her expression darkened. The bartender shot a curious look at them. She didn't want to embarrass herself in front of strangers. Suppressing her emotions, she helped him up. "Alright. If you don't feel like going home, then don't. I'll take you to the hotel for some rest. Is that okay?"This time, Nigel remained silent. Being extremely drunk, he leaned against her to the point th

    "It must be so hard on Ms. Langley.""Ms. Emerson's relationship with Mr. Winchester has been going strong, why does he think he has to confess to her?""She deserved it! Mr. Winchester should've given her a few more blows!""I bet Hannah must've hinted to Nigel to do something. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone nuts like this. Hannah's really terrifying.""Do you think she has to do that given how pretty she already is? I would go berserk for her if she just stood still before me!"Meanwhile, the netizens were buzzing about the incident, and other news suddenly appeared on the trending search as well. "Misty's assistant is a poser.""Is there going to be good news from Mr. Garner and Ms. Sorsby?"These headlines were next to each other on the trending searches. However, it didn't cause much of a stir. Only some fans and curious netizens were attracted. Misty was on set. Her phone was held tightly in her grip as she stared at the photo of Cedric and Diana. She gritted her tee

    Nina was usually shy and reserved. It was unusual for her to be so bright. She couldn't even bear to hide her wide smile. "What good news is it?" Hannah smiled and took her inside. "Look at you, you're so excited that you even forgot to wear your robe."Embarrassed, Nina curled her toes as her face became flushed. She whispered, "I was too eager to share this with you, so I forgot."After she put on her robe, she cupped her cheeks excitedly. Her eyes glistened with anticipation and exhilaration. "Hannah, my teacher said that I'm going to perform at the Grand Concert at Farance!"Farance was renowned for its romantic ambiance. Only the best performers could make it to the Grand Concert. Thus, it meant a lot for Winnie to let Nina debut at the Grand Concert. It was a token of compliment for her talent and efforts."That's amazing, Nina." Hannah was genuinely glad for her. She smiled. "You have to leave in advance for the preparation, right? When are you leaving?""Later this

    Blinking her eyes in a daze, she instinctively swiped to answer the call. Her voice was still heavily tinged with fatigue as she spoke, "Hello?""Naomi, what are you doing?" A tipsy female voice could be heard from a distance from the other end of the phone. "Everyone's waiting for you! Come on now, let's drink."She could vaguely make out the deafening music in the background. Her eyes sprung wide open and glanced at the screen. It was Naomi. "Naomi?" she called out to her subconsciously. There was no reply at all. She suddenly had a bad feeling about this. She raised her voice and called out to her again, "Naomi, are you there? Can you hear me?""I'm—I'm just trying to get some fresh air. I'm coming," Naomi replied, yet she wasn't talking to Hannah. She sounded slightly nervous. She was giggling as she continued, "Come on, we have the whole night to drink!"The call ended. As the radio static resonated in Hannah's ears after the call was hung up, she was washed by a wave of

    "Don't you recognize me?" Naomi was flabbergasted. She slammed the glass down on the table. "You know Sheila, yet you have no idea who I am."The upper crust in Hopeldon wasn't that big. Naomi, who was from one of the big three families in Hopeldon, was in no way inferior to Sheila. Yet, these people claimed to not know her. This was absurd. Naomi said coldly, "Which family are you from? Why have I not seen you before?" She became vigilant. Only now did she realize these were all unfamiliar faces. Feeling anxious, she swallowed hard as she discovered this fact. "Bitch, what are you blabbering about?" Another guy with puffy eyes sneered disdainfully when he heard Naomi. "Who do you think you are? Are we obliged to know you at all?" After having too much to drink, he rolled up his sleeves. A scar on his wrist was revealed. Naomi belatedly noticed that something was off about these people. They seemed particularly vicious. However, how did Sheila come to get to know them?

    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.

    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
