"I don't need your fake kindness, and I don't need you to speak for me! Sooner or later, Nigel will see your true colors! Right now, he's just deceived by you. I'll keep waiting for the day he realizes the truth!" Catherine bit her lip, eyes reddening with anger. Well, she genuinely thought she was in some tragic drama."If you love him so much, why did you come to me today? Isn't it because you insisted on showing me your pregnancy test results and asking me to support you? And now that I'm speaking up for you, you feel insulted?" Hannah asked as she was curious.This was absurd."You! Don't push me too far! I don't need your charity. Don't think you can hide your true colors forever! You'll be exposed!" Catherine's face turned pale and was filled with sorrow and anger.Was she just lashing out in embarrassment?Hannah chuckled, "What's the hurry? Did I bully you? Is this just because I described the things you've done?" Sometimes, she really didn't understand her thought
As if she had finally found an outlet for her pent-up emotions, Catherine appeared to shift all her resentment onto Hannah.Her expression twisted as she shouted sharply, "It's all because of you, you sly fox! It's your existence that made Nigel refuse to fulfill our engagement that turned everything into this mess. It's all your fault!"Why couldn't she just disappear?Why did she have to show up in front of Nigel, robbing him of his soul?It was all this cunning fox's fault. She intentionally flirted with him to climb the social ladder, turning her engagement into a joke!She could have grown up as she wished, then married her Prince Charming. It was all ruined by Hannah!"Because of me?" Hannah sneered, saying with contempt, "Haven't you heard clearly? Your so-called lover has always treated you like a sister. Even without me, there would have been other women, but none of them would be you.""You're talking nonsense! Nigel and I have been engaged since childhood. We were d
Nigel pursed his lips in silence, though the implication was evident."The slaps earlier were because of Ms. Langley's insults. For every insult, I'll hit someone she cares about," Hannah declared with a cold, sharp, and piercing gaze."I just slapped you because you're being spineless and selfish. You let her stir up drama while you hid in the shadows, assuming I'd consider you innocent?"You disgust me even more than Ms. Langley! I'm going to puke!" There was a hint of satisfaction in her heart.Indeed, throughout both her lives, she despised Nigel the most.In her previous life, he married her, but he proved to be worthless, allowing her to be ridiculed and mistreated by Regina and Gregory.He took over the Moore family but lacked competence, forcing Hannah to work relentlessly.He couldn't control himself. He became entangled with Catherine, all the while being too weak to confront Hannah, resorting to setting up schemes.In this life, too, he persistently clung to Hannah
"Don't speak ill of Nigel like that!" objected Catherine. Her hands were bound but her voice was still audible.She cast a resentful look at Hannah, fearful of another physical assault.She refrained from further insults."You truly don't comprehend how wonderful Nigel is. You're merely attracted to the Winchester family's wealth. Who gives you the right to look down on Nigel?"When talking about rejecting Nigel's love, she wasn't much better."When rumors spread that Darren had gone mad due to a broken leg, Hannah audaciously claimed that she'd married into the Winchester family for the sake of money! It was certainly not for love. It was because she saw the Winchester family's wealth and power! She abandoned Nigel for money," Catherine thought."Andrew, do you think she genuinely cares about you? This woman is sly. All of this is just a facade!"Full of jealousy, Catherine said, "She's deliberately trying to please you for money. She's afraid of being kicked out of the Winches
Catherine immediately shot Hannah a jealous and resentful look. Hannah raised an eyebrow, unfazed, and she remained silent."Hannah, do you truly find me so despicable in your heart? Are you really never willing to consider being with me?"Nigel struggled to speak as if uttering these words had exhausted all his strength. What did he mean? Was he giving up?In response, Hannah's gaze carried a subtle and profound meaning.If he thought giving up at that moment, without further entanglements, was a good idea, didn't he realize it might have been too late? He wasn't entirely innocent, and in this life, he even contemplated harming her again. Did he expect her to act as if nothing had happened?Suppressing a cold laugh in her heart, she maintained an expression of indifference."Nigel, be a man with responsibility. Don't let me lose respect for you," she advised calmly.The hope in Nigel's eyes dimmed gradually.Clenching his fists, he appeared almost desperate, and he closed
One day, Nigel would fully belong to Catherine!She firmly believed in this.With anticipation and determination in Catherine's eyes, her smile became even brighter. Her voice was sweet as she said, "Okay, thank you, Nigel."Nigel's hand hesitated slightly, a hint of bitterness lingering in his mouth. If only the person he desired could have expressed such emotions to him.Sighing silently, his hand eventually landed gently on Catherine's head. He softly said, "There's nothing to thank me for. My child is my responsibility. Let's go."Catherine's eyes sparkled with surprise and joy. She held his hand as they exited the mall together.Nigel's cheeks were swollen. His clothes were slightly disheveled.Catherine, with tear streaks on her face and red eyes, no longer resembled a pampered young lady. They drew sympathetic glances from passersby.Hannah stood on the third floor of the mall and observed them with a mocking look in her eyes."Ms. Emerson, if you find him unpleasan
As Naomi glanced at the pages of "Soil Analysis", a fleeting expression of bewilderment crossed her faceWell, she did not mean it like that."People don't always discover their true path, but immersing oneself in books is a reliable constant. I've noticed you've been delving into plant-related literature lately—any burgeoning interests in this field?" Hannah asked as she smiled. "I can't quite tell if ..."Naomi's confusion only deepened.In the past, she had dedicated herself to the care of Mr. Garner's roses, putting sleeping and eating on the back burner to spare Hannah from embarrassment.While meticulously looking after the plants, she absorbed a plethora of relevant knowledge at a rapid pace.With each improvement in the plants' conditions, Naomi experienced a sense of accomplishment and joy she had never felt before.This newfound passion prompted her to pick up a botanical encyclopedia and explore this realm after completing her postgraduate entrance exams.Her engag
The driver hesitated slightly.Hannah's gaze suddenly sharpened, resembling an unsheathed sword.Her voice rose as she said, "Quick! Don't waste time!"In this instant, her expression turned unsettling, her eyes reddened, and she exuded a rather frightening demeanor.Under her piercing gaze, the driver inexplicably felt a hint of fear.Without saying much, he hastily unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car.Hannah directly slid into the driver's seat, swiftly fastening the seat belt, all the while continuing to comfort her grandmother over the phone.She pressed the gas pedal abruptly!Naomi clenched her fist, forcefully stuffing it into her mouth to stifle any screams.Gripping the handle tightly, she dared not make a sound, but her pupils widened in uncontrollable fear.She never knew that a car could go so fast!This didn't seem like driving. It was more like flying.Everything in her sight rapidly retreated. The car drifted and swerved, weaving through traffic,
