A Second Chance at Romance Chapter 388 Try It
"Such a smooth talker."With bright eyes, Hannah gave Darren a soft and affectionate glare. However, her lips formed a smile.The complicated emotions in her heart seemed to have dissipated along with her words. She supported her chin and said, "I've had enough setbacks in life that I thought I could be indifferent to all this."But apparently not.Facing Matthew, her rationality told her that her father was selfish and had never loved her. Yet, she still felt a bit sad.Why?Everyone had their parents' love and affection since childhood, but she never had any.Was she not worthy of receiving her parents' love?Since Matthew had said that the one million dollars was compensation, she gladly accepted it. After splurging at the mall, she inexplicably bought those snacks and lollipops.Those were things that she had wished for as a child but couldn't afford to have.As a child, she would have loved to have her parents buy them for her as a reward as well.Right now, as she lo

Misty stealthily left the house. She clutched her phone tightly and had a conflicted look in her eyes.She could no longer sit by idly.She was fed up with the overwhelming online abuse and the constant need to hide like a mouse.She had received a threatening call from Jessica who demanded that she deal with Zane in prison.Zane was the man that they had arranged to push Ramona off the building. She wondered how much longer he would keep his mouth shut.Once he confessed, she would be done for.So, she couldn't wait any longer.She had been calling Cedric repeatedly but couldn't get through to him.Since he refused to keep in touch with her, Misty decided to go to him.She left the house determinedly without alerting Matthew and Claudia and quietly got into a cab.She couldn't go to the Garner manor to look for Cedric.

Misty was so frightened that her whole body trembled. She couldn't control her urge to scream.However, her voice was suppressed when a hand reeking of blood, firmly covered her mouth."Don't scream."She heard a low and hoarse voice. The man seemed to have suffered some injuries. He was looking at her with a cold and murderous glare.He was heavily injured with blood all over his body. He looked horrible under the moonlight.Misty trembled all over and only then did she notice the exceptionally handsome man.He was a captivating mix of good and bad and had slightly long hair. He exuded a mysterious aura overall.His clothes were not ordinary, and he radiated a sense of fierceness and ruthlessness.Misty's heart raced, but strangely, she felt certain that this dangerous man would not harm her.She whispered to him, "I … I won't scream. Are you okay? You're seriously injured."A strange glint flashed in the man's eyes, seemingly surprised that she was not running away in fear

"How are you feeling now? Do you feel any pain?"Misty asked a series of caring questions and, as if remembering something, patted her forehead gently. "Look at me! You still have wounds on your body … Do you want some water? I'll go get it for you!"She got up quickly to get some water.However, after spending the night sitting by the bedside, her legs had gone numb.As she stood up suddenly, she had a blackout and her legs gave way, causing her to fall.She fell onto Connor and accidentally touched his wound which made him grunt in pain."Are you okay? I'm sorry, I didn't mean to fall!"Misty panicked. She got up with a pale face and anxiously looked at him. "Does it hurt a lot? I'm really sorry …"Her innocent and elegant look, coupled with such an expression made her seem as pure and clean as a white sheet of paper.Connor felt that he had never seen such a delicate and kind woman before, and for a moment he was even more melancholic."Are you an angel?"He couldn't stop

Unexpectedly, the seemingly pure and beautiful girl had such a side to her.It not only made him sad, but it also made him interested in hunting for something.…On the other hand, Hannah found the room empty when she woke up.She slept deeply and woke up only when it was already late in the morning.Darren left for work early every day, and she was used to it. She headed downstairs without much thought.The entire residence was unusually quiet, with no trace of the usual noise from anyone. "Agnes?"Curious, she raised her voice to call out, "Agnes?"Agnes, usually diligent, did not respond immediately.For the first time, she realized how vast and empty the mansion was. It even produced an echo when she raised her voice.Where was everyone? Tightening her coat, she descended the stairs and found a small sign posted at the staircase entrance on the ground floor. It wrote, "Madam, please have your meal." A small red arrow pointed toward the direction of the dining roo
Last Updated : 2023-12-08A Second Chance at Romance Chapter 393 Riding Together
Standing against the backlight, Darren resembled an elegant aristocrat yet carried the pride of a god with a touch of arrogance.Hannah gazed at him. A subtle smile graced her lips. "Mr. Winchester, you know I can't ride, right?"Hannah was limited by her upbringing in the slums, which shaped her perspective. Even after marrying Nigel in her previous life, she strived to become a refined lady, dedicating herself to Nigel's family.Every skill she acquired had a purpose, with most of her time devoted to proving herself. Horseback riding was an expensive pastime for nobles with no practical advantages for her and was never on her radar.Darren's eyes held a trace of warmth. "It's fine if you can't ride. You usually know your way around everything in this world. I'll be here to protect you and ensure you stay safe. Do you trust me?"Of course, she did. Without hesitation, Hannah placed her hand in his. With his guidance, she mounted the horse.Seated on the horse, a particular e

Hannah held a huge bouquet of roses, arranging the carefully chosen gifts into the prepared bag.The rose petals glowed with a passionate warmth, adorned delicately with morning dew.Her eyes held a hint of redness, and a surge of emotions washed over her, rendering her momentarily speechless.In this moment, the painful memories of her childhood seemed to find solace along this journey.Once impoverished and burdened with terrible memories, it felt as if these gifts and roses had become part of her journey, brimming with love.Just then, the 18th instructor approached, not alone but with two others.Seeing them, Hannah's nose tingled, and tears nearly welled up."Hannah, no tears allowed! On this day, you've gotta sport that happy grin!" Still getting the hang of horseback riding, Taylor beamed with a wide smile, waving her gift."Take it easy, Taylor." With a touch of concern in her eyes, Avery held the reins for her, keeping a watchful eye.Up ahead, Flynn rode beside t

"Good. If you ever betray Hannah, I'll take her away, far away, where you'll never find her." Flynn observed Darren intensely with his sharp eyes."You won't get that chance." Darren's gaze suddenly sharpened, his dark eyes filled with possessive dominance as he stared coldly at Flynn.The mere thought of this possibility ignited a thick sense of murderous intent within him.In this world, no one could separate him from Hannah.Under his cold gaze, Flynn's face paled slightly, yet he showed no sign of yielding. He steadfastly displayed his sincerity.The eyes of the two men met briefly. Then, each averted their gaze under the concerned looks of Taylor and Avery.Flynn then pulled on the reins as if they had reached an unspoken agreement. The white horse beneath him gradually slowed, falling behind the horses that Taylor and Avery rode.The crisp sound of hooves echoed loudly.Riding spiritedly on horseback, the siblings from the Winchester family approached briskly.Anth

A Second Chance at Romance Chapter 827 The Bad Guy
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
A Second Chance at Romance Chapter 825 Burden
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
A Second Chance at Romance Chapter 824 Lost In Thought
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
A Second Chance at Romance Chapter 823 Look at Me
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
A Second Chance at Romance Chapter 822 Unwrapping the Gift
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
A Second Chance at Romance Chapter 821 So Ungrateful
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
A Second Chance at Romance Chapter 820 Do You Miss Me?
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. Even if the outcome disappoints me, it's fine. But old people

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
