Darren wanted to pull Hannah down and sink into the depths of his bloodthirst.Despite the repeated temptations of the beast within him, he was reluctant to harm her in the slightest. Yet those people dared to hurt her. Damn it! Damn it!Darren lowered his gaze. His entire being was shrouded in a chilling intent."The individuals responsible have already been taken into custody by the police. They will pay for their actions."Sensing his hostility, Hannah raised her hand to embrace him and said softly, "It didn't feel hurt before, but it's starting to ache a bit now. How about we go to the hospital and have a doctor check it?""Does it hurt? Let's go now," Darren's eyes instantly filled with concern as he scooped her up, treating her like a fragile doll. Even allowing her to walk seemed like a form of harm."Huh? Mr. Winchester, I didn't injure my foot!" Hannah exclaimed, both amused and exasperated. Darren remained silent, seemingly oblivious to her words. He swiftly carri
Casting her a cold glance, seemingly oblivious to Misty's smug satisfaction, Hannah calmly stated, "It's just a minor injury.""Hannah, now that you're Mrs. Winchester, you represent the Winchester family's reputation." Misty softly advised her with her large eyes that seemed filled with concern. "You can't keep getting into fights like you used to. You're behaving like a kid—what's that all about? It would be embarrassing if word got out."I know you may not like hearing this, but as your sister, I still have to advise you," she continued, even though her words seemed irritating. With what appeared to be a compassionate expression, she whispered, "Hannah, you shouldn't take advantage of Mr. Winchester's favoritism to behave recklessly. Otherwise, it's not only embarrassing for him, but it also reflects poorly on you. Hannah, you should think more about Mr. Winchester.""There's no need to worry. I like my wife just the way she is. There's no embarrassment. In fact, I'm proud of
Cedric still showed some lingering fear and said, "It's a good thing I happened to pass by. Otherwise, I can't imagine how you and Hannah would've handled that situation.""We were actually on our way to try that famous private kitchen. I never thought we'd run into that group. It was really terrifying. Thankfully, Ms. Emerson is skilled. That's how we held on until you arrived," Diana said as she frowned, a hint of stress in her expression.Recalling the events, she remembered that Hannah had stuck by her side and consistently shielded her. Diana couldn't help but regret her impulsive actions.At the ambulance, she was overly concerned about Cedric's injuries, losing control of her temper and saying things that might have crossed a line.She couldn't help feeling a bit remorseful. With her words, would Hannah even want to be friends with her anymore?"It's good that you're okay. You really scared me today," Cedric said, grabbing her hand with a relieved expression.Then, hesitat
"Come on, silly, why didn't you mention you were hungry? Why are you so cute? You must be starving, huh?" Cedric's chest rumbled as he chuckled, playfully tapping her nose."I … um, wasn't really hungry …" Diana's heart swelled as she shook her head instinctively.But her stomach growled again.Cedric smiled as he said, "You should grab something to eat! How can you take care of me if you're starving? It'll break my heart.""But what about you?" Diana hesitated. If she went to eat, what about Cedric?"I'm not hungry. Besides, I can't eat right now. You go ahead. I'll be fine. There are nurses around!" Cedric replied as he grinned, tousling her hair. Hearing his words, she nodded as she was starving.After ensuring Cedric was taken care of, she left the room to get some food.The elevator lit up, and Misty stared at the indicator for a while before pushing open the door to the ward.Her face wore a worried expression, tears welling up in her eyes. She rushed forward, sound
Hannah lifted her gaze, quietly watching Diana. "Ms. Sorsby, what do you have to apologize for?"Her tone was calm and tinged with confusion, as if she genuinely did not understand the reason behind Diana's words."I ..." Diana struggled to speak. Her throat was dry and scratchy. "I shouldn't have said those things to Ms. Emerson and ... acted that way."Although Hannah had spoken harshly for Diana's own good, the latter had said many cruel things.Looking back, Diana regretted not giving herself a good slap at that moment. Her words were hurtful as well."At that time, Mr. Garner was injured, and you, being deeply concerned, momentarily lost your composure. It's normal. A few impulsively spoken words in a moment of anxiety don't count for much. There's no need for you to apologize," Hannah said, her lips still holding a faint smile. Watching her distant demeanor, Diana's heart tightened into a knot. Her polite yet distant attitude was perfectly balanced.The first time Di
Feeling unbearably despondent, Kenneth waved his hand. His pair of lively eyes appeared somewhat listless. "Fine! I'm sorry for my big mouth. I won't disturb you any longer," he said.He wasn't really contemplating anything, but the captivating beauty in front of him made it challenging to stay wholly composed.Standing up, he bid farewell to Diana, saying, "I truly have to thank Ms. Emerson this time.""You and Ms. Sorsby have thanked me many times already. There's no need to dwell on it." Hannah nodded, extending her hand for a brief shake. They owed each other nothing now. During her time with the Winchester family, Agnes always carefully made various nourishing soups, gradually erasing the traces of her complicated past.The signs of the hardships from her early life were fading away.However, Hannah's body still carried a hint of ice. Her fingertips were slightly cold, forming a sharp contrast with Kenneth's warm hands.Unable to resist, Kenneth rubbed her fingertips
Siobhan obviously had acting skills, but her appearance could have been more outstanding. They were not in line with the current mainstream market, so the capital excluded her.Despite honing her acting skills for years, she was stuck playing supporting roles for those who just knew how to act cute.Despite being in the entertainment industry for almost 20 years, there was still no trace of her online."Siobhan, you don't look old at all."As a high school student who didn't drink, Taylor poured Siobhan a cup of juice, sincerely saying, "You look beautiful now. You're in great shape, and your acting is excellent. You'll surely become popular!"Siobhan smiled with tears in her eyes, shaking her head. "Silly girl."For an actress, 36 was already quite old.She hadn't gained fame before, and now that she was getting older, what could she expect?Not wanting to discourage Taylor, Siobhan didn't say much. She took a few sips of juice and leaned silently on the table.When the celeb
The film's approval process was stuck, and Kaden was getting anxious to the point of developing ulcers. Kesha was equally anxious. Unfortunately, Hannah had already entered a period of seclusion for intense studying, preparing to take the postgraduate entrance exam.They didn't dare to disturb her, so they had to keep the news to themselves and find a solution.Both Hannah and Kaden had crucial exams this year, and they were the focal points of the Winchester family's attention. Agnes prepared good food for them every day, strictly following a nutritional meal plan.Even the sound of footsteps from Naomi had been softened.Although the soundproofing was excellent, Nina practiced the piano at Winnie's house in the evening, making sure to keep the environment quiet when she returned home to avoid disturbing the two.Amid the collective tension and anticipation at the Winchester Residence, an important day arrived on June 6th. It was a significant day for households with candid
