Darren's fingers brushed through her locks as he said softly, "I won't let you wait for too long, Hannah."

Then, he leaned into her and planted a kiss on her lips before he took his leave.

Misty's eyes were red from the jealousy boiling in her as she saw this sight.

"Hannah, just you wait."

She couldn't help but grit her teeth and sneer as she snapped, "What's the use of getting a man's love? Once he stops liking you, I'm eager to see how miserable you'll be."

Hannah couldn't help but give her a look. What she said was completely absurd.

She didn't sound anything like the female lead in a cringe romance novel.

In the book, love was the only thing that mattered to her. She gave up playing the piano, what she was once best at, for Cedric's sake. Besides, she also gave up her job.

In the end, in what seemed to be a perfect ending, Misty was willingly kept in captivity by Cedric.

Yet she had the audacity to say men's love was unreliable.

    "She solved her company's internal conflicts in the blink of an eye. Also, she has a lot of celebrities with high potential signed under her agency.

Yet, Misty's life took a turn for the worse, and she didn't even dare to show up in public. This thought made her blood boil. She was determined to make Hannah inferior to her again. Also, she had to prove that she was never a weak woman who only knew how to rely on men. She was also capable of being independent.

    Of course Misty knew what Cedric meant. They had been together for so long, so it was easy for her to catch on. "Did you miss me?" Her eyes flickered as she smirked. In a suggestive tone, she drawled, "Is Ms. Sorsby incapable of satisfying you in bed? Do you really miss me? Or you miss … hm?"She sounded so attractive when she spoke to him in such a suggestive manner. "Bitch, you're asking for it," Cedric replied with a chuckle. He could already imagine how flushed her face would be as she wrapped her arms around him. She would cling to him with an embarrassed expression, yet her actions showed otherwise. Misty was literally the woman of his dreams. Despite her usual innocent demeanor, she was incredibly charismatic in bed as she lured him to her. Even sex workers couldn't compare to her. Cedric tried to hold back his urges as he said in a hoarse tone, "Misty, you're gonna regret it later.""Well, I missed you too …"The smile on Misty's face widened when she heard t

His eyes which usually carried an indifferent look, were now filled with determination as he continued, "I don't really know how to date, but I want to make you feel secure. After all … I can't afford to lose you.""Woah!" The other socialites squealed in amazement. Given how considerate and kind Cedric was toward Diana, anyone would feel like he was madly in love with her.Even Diana couldn't help but be moved. She knew he was referring to their previous breakup. When she saw how determined he was to turn over a new leaf and was incredibly attentive to details, she was touched. Yet, she couldn't help but be doubtful. Maybe it was because she was influenced by Hannah when she used to complain about him to her. Hannah warned her to not give a cheating man a second chance. Thus, Diana was constantly paranoid. She was pondering on whether she should give Cedric more freedom. Though a lot of things were going on in her mind, she

He strangled her, pressed her against the railing, and said harshly, "How dare you do that!""Cedric!

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.

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

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.

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
