Author: Zoe Zoey
last update Last Updated: 2024-01-09 18:30:00
Erica had only encountered such a perfect man once in her life.

Was she really going to watch him gradually drift away from her life and belong only in her dreams?

She still had a long life ahead of her. But in that moment, she felt as if she could see the end of it.

The helplessness and despair she felt caused a surge of anxiety and negative emotions within her heart.

It even caused her to unconsciously pick up her habit of biting her thumb.

Her gaze filled with a strong determination.

She didn't want to leave.

Or rather, she didn't want to let go of her opportunity with Darren.

Lowering her gaze, she didn't linger any longer. She grabbed her mug and entered her room.

Hannah was awakened by the ringing of her phone.

The sky was already bright outside.

As she had forgotten to shut the curtains, the sunlight shone into the room through the window. It felt warm but didn't seem glaring.

She wasn't fully awake. She lay in bed lazily, refusing to get up.

    As he thought about Hannah's terrible temper, Matthew's expression darkened. If it wasn't because of her current status and position, he wished that he'd never had her as his daughter.He was genuinely concerned if she was even …He gritted his teeth until his cheeks twitched slightly. There was a disturbing look that flashed across his eyes. "I know that you love me the most, Dad."There was an innocent smile on Misty's face. She clung to Matthew and handed his phone back to him obediently. "Don't be mad, Dad. Just talk to Hananh nicely. You're an easy person to get along with. I'm sure Hannah will come to appreciate you after some time."Matthew sneered coldly. There was a look of disdain on his face. "Who cares what she thinks?"Whilst he complained, he still dialed Hannah's number. Soon, a robotic, cold, but sweet female voice echoed through the phone. "Sorry, the person you are calling is currently available. Please try again later …"Matthew froze. He looked at hi

    Hannah could never seem to understand what was going through Matthew or any other man's mind when they cheated. Was it really worth it to abandon their wives just for their lovers?Why would a perfectly decent young woman willingly associate themselves with these married men? Did they never consider what these women actually wanted?Were they truly attracted by their old age, lust for the young and attractive, and their unethical behaviors?In the end, it all came down to money and power. These women wanted the easy way out in life. The worst part was that these mistresses would rise to power along with their children, and these unfaithful men would enjoy a peaceful life and succeed in their careers.Upon recalling Eleanor who lost her life at a young age, a hint of sadness crept up in Hannah's heart. She often wondered if her life would be different if Eleanor was still alive.That way, she would also have someone who loved her and cared for her. She would have had the love

    Upon hearing Hannah's determined tone, Misty's expression darkened. What was Hannah trying to say?How dare she look down on her!If it wasn't because of the previous movie that Hannah funded which turned out such a success at the box office, her own rising fame, and Dennis' title of a "genius director", why would she even choose the production crew that Hananh funded for her comeback?Given her current popularity, it was clear that they were in a win-win situation!A hint of coldness flashed across Misty's eyes, but she still maintained the sweet smile on her face as she said softly, "Dad, why not let me talk to Hannah?"Matthew was clearly infuriated. Upon hearing Misty's words, he tossed the phone to her and said angrily, "She's just being unappreciative! Family ties are supposed to be unbreakable, yet she's determined to cut all of us off!"His voice was so loud that Hannah could hear him clearly across the line.She couldn't help but sneer coldly as she took a seat on t

    The main reason why everyone mocked her was not because of the box office performance, it was because of her cringe-worthy acting skills.Her behavior indicated a general lack of respect for the viewers who bought tickets for the movie. Why could she not understand that?"You!"Misty not only failed to understand, but she genuinely believed that Hannah was intentionally targeting her. Upon hearing Hannah repeatedly expose her, she was furious. She took a few deep breaths and forced herself to calm down. With a forced smile, she said, "Hannah, the weak performance at the box office was not just because of me. You've recently invested in a movie, so I'm sure you should know about this. It's fine if others say that about me, but if my own sister says that about me, it really hurts."She pretended to sniffle slightly and put on a magnanimous appearance. She continued, "It's fine if you want to say that. But even if you do have your opinions about me, how could you not look at the

    People would mock her?Mock her for what?Previously, Matthew had publicly made a statement regarding the one million dollars to destroy her reputation.When the truth was revealed, besides the netizens who felt sorry and angry for Hannah, alongside those who condemned the Emersons, there was a large portion of netizens who came forward with a saintly perspective, telling Hannah to forgive Matthew. There were many comments along the lines of "Every parent only wants what's best for their child" and "In the end, he's still your biological father".It seemed as if just because they shared a common bloodline, she should forgive Matthew no matter what he had done. What a joke!When had she ever bothered about how people thought of her? She blinked slightly and chuckled. "I'm a person who holds onto grudges. I don't care what people say of me. As long as someone upsets me …"Her voice turned cold and carried a hint of resentment. "Don't blame me for acting without mercy."When

    "My darling, what's wrong?"Just then, a gentle voice tinged with joy called out to Hannah.The silhouette, that always appeared in her memories along with the smell of chicken noodle soup, was standing right in front of her. Molly gazed at her lovingly as she extended her hand and pinched Hannah's cheeks gently. She chuckled and said, "Why are you in a daze? Didn't you say you wanted to have chicken noodle soup? Come here."She led her to the dining table as she rambled, "It's not good to have it early in the morning with an empty stomach, so I made it less spicy for you. Have you drunk your water yet?"Molly's nagging, the smell of chicken noodle soup wafting through the air, Naomi and Nina chattering …Everything was woven into her reality, and it finally hit her that it wasn't a dream after all. She no longer had to be in her dreams to go back to her sweet past, and nor did she have to sulk alone in her room. She succeeded in changing the past, and Molly was with her,

    "I did ask her, but your mom was reluctant to say. Whenever I asked, she'd look like she'd swallowed a lemon, and she'd yell that she would file a divorce once you were born."Molly shook her head and continued, "I thought she was merely having mood swings because of her pregnancy. I didn't dare to ask too much about it since I was worried that her health would be affected."It seemed like Matthew and Eleanor's relationship was already rocky before Claudia had shown up. Was it really because of the clash of their principles? Or had something Eleanor couldn't tolerate happened?Was Eleanor's decision to file a divorce actually impulsive?Clenching her fists, Hannah lowered her gaze, hiding the storm of emotions lurking in her eyes. "Was Emerson Group already flourishing back then?""God forsaken ingrate!"Molly, who was always kind and forgiving, turned unusually furious and cynical.She slammed the table as she hollered, "He married his mistress right after Eleanor passed aw

    Hannah didn't expect to come across such a scene during an ordinary afternoon tea. As she lifted a finger in front of her lips, she whispered, "Shh—"Kesha and Dennis exchanged glances. "What's wrong?"It was hard for Kesha, who was usually loud, to ask in a hushed tone, "Are we not going to eat later?""No rush."Hannah smirked, visibly intrigued. "There's a good show coming up. You guys can go ahead first, I'll stay here for a while."A good show? Was she referring to the commotion beside them?Kesha paused. Her ex-husband was one of the nouveau riche, so the upper crust in Hopeldon didn't want to mingle with her. However, she had no intention of joining the upper crust even though she reeled in more money after getting a divorce. She no longer felt inferior. Thus, she had no idea who the voice belonged to. There was a hint of confusion on her face. "Then we'll get going first. I'll send you the address later."Holding Kesha, Dennis nodded at Hannah with a smile

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.

    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.

    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
