Was it Hannah?Was Connor going to make a move against Hannah?The more Misty thought about it, the more her eyes shone with anticipation.She was afraid of Connor's ruthless, unrestrained, and unbridled actions when facing him.But when she thought about him going against Hannah, she felt joy and even looked forward to the development of the situation.On the other side, Hannah had no idea that she was being targeted.During this period, Molly had moved into the Winchester residence. The house became warmer due to that.Naomi, Nina, and Kaden absolutely loved staying by Molly's side.They even dug up a patch of roses in the backyard and moved them near the fence to make way for vegetables.After studying for a day, Hannah went downstairs to relax. She couldn't help but say, "What are you guys doing?""Grandma says that the vegetables we grow are the most delicious."Naomi's excited face was covered in mud. "Hannah, look! I planted these! I'll treat you to the green beans
Darren couldn't help but smile as well.Erica, who had returned with a watering can, saw their interactions and clenched her fists. She stood still for a moment, unsure whether to approach them.Just then, she noticed someone looking at her.It was Kaden. The youngest of the Winchesters was giving her a profound gaze.Erica's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly lowered her head. She walked over with the watering can and said, "I— I've brought the watering can.""Thank you, Erica!" Kaden smiled and took the watering can from her before saying, "We've plowed the soil here. You better don't come near to avoid dirtying your dress."After a pause, he asked, "Erica, is this dress new?"Among the Winchesters, Kaden seemed to be the most approachable.Unlike Anthony, who was indifferent, Andrew, who was proud, and Darren, who seemed aloof, Kaden was like a typical good teenager—handsome, obedient, and polite.He would address her politely and inquire about Molly's well-being. He
Erica didn't know what psychological state she was in, but subconsciously, she didn't want others to find out."I … I'm not unhappy. I'm very happy."Her face showed a bit of embarrassment. She was used to touching the ends of her hair instinctively to soothe her uneasiness. But she couldn't touch her hair as it was tied up in a bun. Her embarrassment intensified at the failed attempt. She just awkwardly raised her hand and rubbed the back of her head stiffly.She had heard that Hannah had come from the slums.Why was Hannah's long hair glossy and smooth, while hers was dry and frizzy and felt like a handful of grass?It was a stark contrast.Her face turned slightly pale. "Since I'm not needed here, I'll go help Mrs. Tate with dinner. You guys continue working."She quickly turned and ran after saying that."Kaden, what are you looking at?" Naomi came over and nudged her brother's arm. "What's wrong with Erica?"She had run away so fast, as if a ghost chased her.Naomi
Hannah didn't know what the problem was.She turned the showerhead on again, but only a stream of cold water came out.Feeling helpless, she quickly wrapped herself in a bath towel and went to the next room.The door was quickly opened after her knock.It seemed that Darren had just finished taking a shower. There was a towel wrapped around his waist. He revealed a strong and muscular upper body.His usual neat hair was wet and clinging to his scalp. There were water droplets flowing down the contours of his face.His sword-like eyebrows, dark eyes, and broad chest were fatal to Hannah.She maintained her smile although she was sighing inwardly. Her unhesitant and unapologetic gaze landed on him as she said, "Mr. Winchester, the showerhead in my room is broken. May I use your bathroom?"Her eyes showed pure admiration.However, Darren felt that his blood was rushing through his veins.It was as if Hannah's gaze was a spark. Wherever her gaze wandered, it ignited a wave of f
Darren breathed a sigh of relief. He cautiously took a few steps forward and stood in front of the bathroom door."The tall bottle is the shower gel. Will you use it? Shall I bring yours over?""It's okay. I'll use yours." Hannah's muffled voice came through the door.Darren stared at the bathroom door at the unconcerned reply. He was unable to suppress a gentle and tender smile from forming.He would have to admit that restraining himself was painful. But Hannah's joy and trust filled his heart with sweetness and reassurance.It seemed that the world became more likable because of her existence.Suddenly, the bathroom door opened slightly, and the woman he cared about popped her head out."Mr. Winchester."Hannah waved at him with a smile in her eyes. Darren was hesitant. He approached and asked softly after observing that she was still properly wrapped in a bath towel. "Do you need anything?"Was there something she couldn't find in his bathroom?"No. I just thought abo
Hannah found Erica running away amusing and shook her head helplessly. "Erica is still so timid. She gets nervous every time she speaks to you."Even after being in the house for some time, Erica still couldn't speak when she saw Darren. It was as if she was facing a fierce beast."Hannah, you should dry your hair."Not bothering with irrelevant people, Darren gently pushed her shoulder and warmly said, "Be careful not to catch a cold.""I'm not that delicate."Hannah chuckled, not bothering to refute. The following banter was sealed behind the closed door of the room.After drying her hair and changing into a long dress, Hannah finally went downstairs with Darren to have dinner.After dinner, Naomi and Kaden accompanied Molly for a walk in the garden. Nina went upstairs to practice her piano while Anthony sat on the sofa playing with his phone.As he was scrolling through the internet, he sat up straight suddenly, his face turning ugly. Then, he scolded, "Nonsense!""What
Even the Starlight Foundation's reputation was starting to be questioned. Some people even mentioned the official Winchester Group's account."Hannah, don't pay attention to those people talking nonsense online. I believe there must be a reason for you to take action."Anthony's face darkened as he sneered, "That brat Andrew is not efficient in handling things. How could he let Hannah personally hit someone?"It irritated him to see Hannah being criticized recklessly online. The thought of the comments he had read made him almost explode with anger."Andrew is currently at the military academy. His conduct will reflect on him."Casting Anthony a faint glance, Hannah said, "Moreover, it's more satisfying to slap someone in the face myself than have someone else do it."Seeing that the online comments did not influence her, Anthony finally breathed a sigh of relief."Hannah, do you know who is deliberately slandering you? Could it be the couple who was beaten?"Nigel and Cath
The online uproar was not without reason. Due to the Starlight Foundation, Hannah gained popularity online.Although she never appeared or said anything herself, people naturally had a favorable impression of her.Later on, the movie 'The Search' became a huge hit. Her portrayal of a college student in a few scenes won her the title of a high-class beauty. Many fans expressed their admiration. Some even use screenshots of her scene as their phone backgrounds. Female celebrities in the entertainment industry had mixed feelings toward her.During that time, no one dared to show off themselves. Any attempt to do so was met with comparisons to Hannah, leaving them embarrassed.Many relied on their looks to make a living. Now, they found themselves being compared unfavorably whenever they made an occasional appearance.If Hannah had been in the industry, she might have faced the collective suppression by other rising stars. However, she wasn't just any other person. Not only was sh
