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. The ambiance was splendid. With a panoramic v
"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. "Dad abandoned you in the slums since you were a little girl!"You must've been unwilling and reluctant to live a life of poverty! That's why you're jealous of me your whole life, right?"I bet you hate me so much that you
"You idiot," Hannah murmured before curling her lips into a cold smirk."All you're doing right now is showcasing your ugly and jealous side. Then again, you must be extremely pissed when you see me, the actual daughter of the Emerson family, living a better life than yours."Her smile never wavering, she turned to shoot Misty a glance."I'm going to make this crystal clear to you right now, Misty. Not only do I want to live a better life than you, but I also plan on keeping it this way … forever."I don't give a fuck about who you are. Since you have the guts to provoke me, you'd better be prepared to get slapped in return."Hannah used to be intimidated by Misty's role as the main female lead in the novel. She was still traumatized by the events she was forced to go through in her past life.At first, Hannah intended to live her new life peacefully and not care about her past life. She'd rather pretend that she never had anything to do with all those people in her past life.A
The reason why Hannah could marry Darren in the first place was all thanks to Misty's benevolence anyway!"If you choose to be willfully ignorant toward reality, then nothing I say can change your mind."Hannah decided to not waste her breath on Misty once she saw how deeply rooted the latter's misconception toward her was."I will never be a package deal that's thrown in to make someone look good. I'm the one taking charge of my own life."Even if the path lying ahead of Hannah was chock full of challenges, Hannah vowed to overcome all of them and emerge as the true victor.Humans only had themselves to rely on at the end of the day, after all. Unfortunately, Misty would never learn that lesson in her lifetime."I'll show you that I can achieve new heights on my own," Hannah said firmly.Her figure was slender and alluring, whereas her looks were enchantingly striking. Hannah could've made her debut as a celebrity, which would've ensured her a lifetime of riches and fame.Hann
Even when Misty peered at Robert from below, she could tell that every inch of his face was still flawless despite the weird angle.His well-defined jawline and his sexy Adam's apple made a great pair. The handsome yet gentle looks he was blessed with made him look like a distinguished nobleman at all times.Robert's eyes were especially filled with unlimited love for Misty. She could feel him looking at her as though she were a delicate and beautiful maiden instead of the haggard wench she was right now.In fact, he treated her with utmost care, making her feel like the world's most precious woman alive."What's wrong with your face? Did she hit you again?"Robert pursed his lips tightly, though a flash of pain soon streaked across his eyes. "Does it still hurt?"No one would be able to resist it when a handsome and gentle young man proclaimed their distress for them.Robert's white suit didn't harbor any crease lines. It hugged his body snugly, accentuating every curve of his
"Could it really be that our love is that fragile?"Misty's sorrow was palpable on her pallid face. Her eyelashes were already wet with tears at that point."Or could it be that true love will never win against monetary benefits? Can I even trust any man in this world?""Misty, believe me when I say I'll always support you unconditionally even if the entire world is fighting against you."Robert took Misty's hand, unable to hold his feelings for her back anymore.A pained look crossed his face as he said solemnly, "To me, you're different from any other woman in this world. I've never seen someone as innocent as you."You have to believe me, Misty. I'll definitely help you out. I'm willing to do anything for you.""Oh, Robert. You're such a wonderful man …"Misty's cheeks had turned crimson at that moment. She felt a surge of warmth flooding her heart as well, which was soon followed by gratitude.As she looked up at Robert, she found herself staring into his deep eyes. They m
