"I'll be good." Misty nodded obediently. Her lashes were still wet from the tears.Like a clingy kitten, she left gentle kisses on his neck as she sobbed wrongfully, "Cedric, are you really going to marry Ms. Sorsby?"Her eyes became red again. Tears rolled down her cheeks as she cried in silence."It's—It's not like I'm jealous … It's just that I—I've always dreamed of becoming your bride one day."I'm just a little bit sad that I can't marry you now … Just a teeny, weeny bit sad."She extended her thumb and her index finger, gesturing how little it was.She seemed pitiful, yet adorable."What a silly girl." Cedric's heart was about to melt at this sight.He couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her tears away. He smiled and asked teasingly, "Are you really just a little bit sad?"Misty widened her eyes and stared at him hesitantly. She extended the distance between her two fingers and sobbed softly, "Actually, it's a bit more than this … Cedric, I'm so greedy, aren't I?"
Embarrassment flashed across Cedric's eyes."Ana, I know this is absurd … but the situation is exactly as you said it is. Believe me!"He tried to reach Diana's hand as he explained in haste, "Ana, you know I only love you! Why would I cheat on you?""Yeah, I have the same question as well. Why would you cheat on me?" Diana scoffed and proceeded to slap his hand violently away from her.Backing off, she snapped, "But I'm more curious about this. Just what kind of script have you plotted for yourself that both sisters fell for you? Cedric, do you think I'm a fool?""Ana, I—" Cedric was reluctant to give up, attempting to explain again.However, Diana had no mercy. She delivered a harsh slap to his face right away."No wonder Ms. Emerson always goes for a slap in the face. It's indeed more refreshing." Diana let out a light chuckle and stared at him sarcastically."You did a great job pretending to be goody-two-shoes before me, Cedric! You were leeching off me, yet you were still
Cedric's expression changed dramatically. Instinctively, he started to explain, "Ana, things aren't like what you saw.""Cedric, don't take me for a fool!" Diana sneered and glared at him with disdain. "I've come to tell you that we're over!""Ana …" Cedric's eyes widened.No, he still needed the Sorsbys to contend with Sheila. He couldn't afford to lose her now."Ms. Sorsby, plea—please don't be mad at Cedric. He only said those just to coax me …"Misty's eyes flickered as she sobbed bitterly and pleaded, "I know you probably hate me a lot. I'll leave. I won't bother you anymore. Please forgive Cedric!"She was crying bitterly, looking so pitiful. Cedric's heart throbbed at the sight, yet he could only endure it and pretend to be unbothered.He chirped in and said, "Ana, I'll cut all ties with her. I'm really sorry, please give me another chance …""Oh, you both are so sweet and considerate, isn't it?" Diana's gaze swept past them as she mocked.She sneered and said, "You guy
Not unaware of Cedric's fierceness, Hannah remained expressionless and revealed a sly smile. "There is no need for Mr. Garner to worry."He was just a man who bullied the weak and feared the strong. Wasn't he the one who wanted to lay hands on her first? After she gave him a beating, he behaved properly.Men like Cedric needed to be dealt with ruthlessly. They had to be beaten until they learned how to be decent human beings.Unsure of what Hannah was thinking about, Cedric felt an inexplicable chill on his back.With nowhere to vent his anger, he didn't linger any longer. He gave Hannah another look and turned to leave."Hannah Emerson, you will regret this!"A glint of resentment and envy flashed in Misty's eyes. Stomping her foot, she said, "Let's wait and see."After saying this, she adjusted her expression and chased after Cedric, "Cedric, wait for me."Seeing the two leave, Hannah shook her head with a wry smile.Only losers need to boast before they depart.Seeing the
Upon hearing these words, Kesha's cheeks flushed slightly, revealing a hint of embarrassment. She coughed lightly and tried to maintain her composure.Kesha then said with a smile, "It was thanks to Mr. Westwood."The significant change in her image seemed to be related to Dennis.Meanwhile, Dennis pretended to be engrossed in looking at the monitor, but there was a subtle hint of blush in his ears.Hannah turned her gaze and said with a smile, "I didn't know you two were so close now.""Well, this is the first project that I've invested in after all. So I often come by to check things out," Kesha said while awkwardly grabbing her shawl."I found that Mr. Westwood is good at capturing a good image, so I asked him for advice on how to dress properly.""Ms. Seger is already a beautiful lady. I just pointed out your strong points," Dennis couldn't help but speak up."I only gave a little suggestion. It's all Ms. Seger's own good qualities and charm."No matter how you looked at i
Hannah glanced into the distance and paused for a moment.She then said, "You go in first. I have something to attend to.""Sure." Kesha was tactful. Seeing that Hannah's expression changed subtly, she didn't inquire further.She readily agreed and swayed gracefully in her high heels as she entered the studio. "See you later."Watching her back, a faint smile appeared on Hannah's lips. Then, she sighed slightly and turned her gaze to the street corner.She suddenly felt that Pollywood was quite vast, yet at the same time, it seemed somewhat small. Why did she keep encountering things no matter where she went?Heading to a small shop on the street, she bought a pack of tissues and walked to a secluded corner at the end of the street.A lone figure that was curled into a ball was squatting on the steps, silently shedding tears.She quietly wept, but her shoulders were trembling slightly. A wet patch formed on the ground in front of her. "Here." Hannah handed over the tissues an
"Let's drink together."Grabbing a bottle, Hannah filled up and raised her glass. "Let's cheer for getting rid of that scumbag.""Bottoms up!" Diana didn't refuse at all. She had decided to get drunk, so she was unrestrained.Drinking alcohol was more enjoyable than drinking water. Therefore, she gulped down the alcohol quickly. Soon, her cheeks were flushed and her eyes hazy.Hannah's body, after being reborn, hadn't adapted to alcohol yet. Just after a few sips, a hint of blush appeared on her cheeks."Hold on," Hannah said as she felt the world in front of her start to sway.She instinctively waved her hand and said, "Let's send the location of the bar to Mr. Sorsby.""No, don't. Why do you want to send the location to him?" Diana was dissatisfied.She hugged the bottle and said, "He'll know I'm drowning my sorrows in alcohol because of the breakup. He'll definitely make fun of me. I won't let him know!"Well, it looked like she was already getting drunk."Alright, alright
The man was kicked away several feet.Not only that, Kenneth pressed forward and grabbed the man's collar. He punched him several times with a sinister look.Gritting his teeth, Kenneth asked, "How do you plan to ease her pain? Show me!"He had an unpleasant expression on his face.Although the brands of his clothes cannot be seen, they clearly exuded a hint of luxury. It was clear that he had some background and wasn't someone to be provoked.The man, now sobered by fear, pleaded with a pale face, "Hey, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I didn't know she was your sister, I drank too much …"Please spare me! I'm sorry! I didn't mean anything else, I just wanted to have a drink together!""Get lost! Don't let me see you again!" Kenneth pushed him away. "Get out of here!"The man didn't dare to delay anymore. He quickly got up and left.The bar was playing music loudly, so the commotion didn't attract much attention.When Kenneth looked up, his sister was already crying. But Hannah, while
