Hannah keenly felt her significance in Darren's heart, sensing that she was loved and cherished as she was held delicately in his hands.

"You're great too. For me, you're also the best," she said softly.

Her ears turned slightly pink as she wrapped her arms around his lean waist.

Living two lifetimes taught her the value of being resolutely chosen and cared for, thanks to him.

He stood before her, always shielding her from danger, regardless of how capable she appeared.

A man like Darren …

She hugged him tightly, oblivious to the restrained look in his eyes.

"It's my honor."

Darren chuckled softly. He pressed her gently against the wall. He placed his large palm on her back, providing her a shield from the cold surface.

His other hand delicately lifted her chin.

Face to face, his eyes caught the glow from the corridor lights.

"Can I kiss you, Your Majesty?" he asked in a hoarse and restrained voice.

Hannah took charge with a slight smirk.

    There was a clear sense of malice in the air.Naomi felt infuriated by Adele's words. "Which family could it be other than the Winchester family? This is my sister-in-law. Can't you understand?" she deliberately muttered in Eldorian.Adele's expression changed instantly."Naomi, you can't expect everyone to have common sense and basic manners. Some people don't ask out of ignorance, they simply want to cause trouble," Kaden said with a casual smile."That's true," Naomi scoffed. Adele should probably read more books.They appeared to be whispering, but their voices were quite audible. Adele heard everything clearly. Her expression turned sour. "How rude!""Apologies, the younger ones might lack some awareness. It's their first time meeting someone who boasts about their family background. They're just curious. I hope you won't mind," Hannah remarked with a smile. Adele only inquired about Hannah's family background instead of her personal abilities.Did it imply that there

    "No, I love my wife very much."Darren's dark eyes emitted a cold gleam as he coolly said, "Ms. Gibson, choose your next words wisely. Don't you dare upset my wife."Unreservedly, he took Hannah's hand before placing a gentle kiss on it.His eyes softened when he looked at her. "My wife is my most precious treasure, and no one can upset her," he expressed with deep affection.Hannah felt her heartbeat quicken for a moment, and even her ears turned warm.Perhaps due to the unfamiliar surroundings of being in a foreign country, Darren appeared more at ease expressing emotions and effortlessly weaving them into words akin to reciting poetry.Hannah's lips curled into a faint smile. A blush spread across her cheeks. However, Adele felt a sudden shock at their deep affection and romance."No, I still don't believe it! Darren, have you forgotten everything about your time in Farance? I visited you when you were in the hospital. Have you forgotten how you protected me, assuring me th

    Anything could be discussed as long as Hannah wasn't upset. Darren could share those dark experiences and the past he didn't want others to know."Mr. Winchester, you don't have to say it if you don't want to, Everyone has their own secrets, I wouldn't force you to open up," Hannah said with a smile as she looked at him.Even in the closest relationships, people were entitled to maintain some privacy.After all, she, too, held the secret of her rebirth, a detail she hadn't disclosed to anyone."If you ever feel like sharing, I'm here to listen. But if you'd rather not, that's perfectly fine. Being a husband doesn't mean you're obliged to reveal every detail. You're free to choose," Hannah continued."It's not that I didn't want to tell you, I just didn't know how to say it," Darren said."It's alright, just relax," she responded.She then smiled and gently kissed his cheek. "Alright, Nina is coming."After exchanging greetings with Winnie, Nina happily ran over, holding the b

    "This is really too much!" Adele's face turned pale. Unable to contain herself any longer, she cried and ran away.She was seemingly heartbroken."What did we do wrong? We just spilled the beans about her actions, right? Such a hypocrite!" Naomi incredulously pointed to Adele's retreating figure. "Mr. Winchester, you seem to be quite popular," Hannah said with a sly smile as she glanced at Darren, who was beside her.Darren's eyes revealed a hint of displeasure as he held Hannah's waist. "Then, keep an eye on me, and don't give others a chance. I will do the same for you, no one will take you away from me," he said warmly.He was like a dragon protecting his princess from any brave challengers attempting to come near her by tearing them into pieces.Hannah remained silent while she looked at him thoughtfully.Following the local customs, they celebrated with a lavish meal at Silver Tower, one of the top restaurants in Farance.

    "Don't worry, Mr. Moore. You'll get what you want," Hannah said seriously. "I won't let you down.""Excellent!" Timothy guffawed heartily. He then waved a hand airily without saying anything else.He did look tired at that moment. But at the same time, he looked like he was extremely relieved."You should leave now, Ms. Emerson. I'd like some space for myself." Timothy's eyes had gone unfocused by then. He seemed to be reminiscing about something.Hannah didn't say anything as well. She nodded mutely before leaving the private room.She had just started making her way down the corridor when she heard a familiar shrill voice."Aren't you going to explain any of this to me?"Hannah would always recognize that voice no matter what. It was Misty.Her gaze frosting over, she slowed down to a stop outside a private room. The door was still left slightly ajar, so she was able to see what was going on in the room.Misty and Cedric could be seen inside. One of them loomed over the ot

    That thought had completely taken over Misty's mind for a very long time. At this point, it was literally carved into her very core.But Hannah only spared Misty an impassive glance. "Oh."What the hell did Hannah mean by that?Misty already had her guard raised at that time. Heck, she was ready to start a catfight with Hannah soon.But Hannah's unexpected response took her by surprise, causing her to freeze on the spot.For a moment, Misty didn't know how to react. She felt as though she was getting nowhere with Hannah despite her attempts to rile the latter up.Ironically, this realization ended up riling Misty up instead."Stop pretending!" she snarled out through gritted teeth, a haughty expression atop her face.Her voice became shrill at that moment.

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.

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
