Erica froze. Her head turned around rigidly.

Hannah was standing next to the entrance. She was smiling at them as she glanced over, and she seemed perfectly fine.

When did she come? How long had she been there? Did she hear anything?

Erica was terrified. The color was drained from her face from sheer horror.

"Hannah, what brings you here?"

Darren's expression softened the moment he set eyes on Hannah.

In a gentle tone, he said, "It's been quite hot lately. Don't get yourself sunburnt."

"You forgot something," she replied with a light chuckle as she waved her hand at him airily.

There was something in her hand. It glimmered under the sun, and it definitely looked exquisite.

It turned out that it was a minimalistic, yet chic tie pin.

After a brief moment of silence, Darren smirked and asked, "Did I leave it in your room last night?"

Clearly, he didn't have the chance to do so. The tie pin didn't belong to him after all.

Or should he say, it was a gift from Hannah?

    Darren was visibly intrigued. He thought his suggestion was extremely appealing. Hannah was speechless. After a while, she slapped his hand away from her and snorted. "That's a no for sure. You have to work."As she gave him a push, she scrunched her nose and continued, "How are you going to support our family if you don't work?"Their family? He quite liked the ring of that. He chuckled and sneaked a kiss on the corner of her lips. Only then was he satisfied. "I'm on my way to earn millions for you, Hannah."He got in the car. The car's engine revved as it glided out of the Winchester residence. Darren finally withdrew his gaze when he could no longer see Hannah in the distance. "Mr. Winchester, this is your schedule today."When Bryan saw him settle down, he turned around from the front seat and handed him the iPad. In a polite and respectful tone, he began his report on his schedule. "You have a meeting later on …""Yeah," Darren answered airily. Despite his

    Erica was dumbfounded. How did Catherine know what she wanted?Her heartbeat rocketed. She felt like she was floating in mid-air as she was unsure of how she should respond. As she moistened her dry lips, she managed to suppress her emotions. In a hushed tone, she replied, "My … My cab's almost here. I have no idea what you're saying."The uncertainty in her eyes made it obvious that she wasn't being sincere. When Catherine heard her, she turned around and shot a disdainful look at her. Instinctively, Erica's toes began to curl inward. Yet, she fought back the urge to step back. She was in a very terrible state right now. Her hair was unkempt, and her forehead was beaded with perspiration. It made her face seem particularly oily under the sunlight. While her face was still flushed after her running, her dehydrated lips began to turn pale and cracked.Everything about her screamed how poor and disheveled she was. There wasn't even a single similarity between her and Cat

    Corbay Resort was spectacular indeed. They were engulfed by the picturesque scenery once they emerged from the car. It didn't have the rigidity of architectural buildings. Yet, it had more structure compared to that of a natural reserve. Clearly, the construction was planned according to the basis of the landscape. By accentuating the natural beauty of the landscape, it succeeded in making people feel refreshed once they reached the entrance. The chalets seemed cozy. They looked exceptionally comfortable. Hannah rented a courtyard for their stay.There were a lot of activities. They could feed animals and even herd sheep and cows. Also, fishing and harvesting fruits were welcomed as well. They could deliver the raw ingredients they foraged to the kitchen for further processing. "Hannah, can we go fishing?"As Naomi held a fishing rod in her hands, she exclaimed excitedly, "Let's have fish stew tonight!"Right when Hannah was about to reply, she heard some noises in the dis

  • A Second Chance at Romance   Chapter 577 A Sincere Heart

    Nigel was the exact opposite of Hannah, who tried so hard to survive in the slums. He had no idea how much effort she put in to merely survive. There was no room for her to fantasize about romance. It wasn't possible for her to be so engrossed in the idea of being in love either. How could she possibly be infatuated with someone when she was already starving?In fact, she only tolerated him attaching himself to her because she was envious of him having a loving family. She was jealous of how he could grow up carefreely. Hannah thought she was merely telling the truth. However, Nigel's face turned ashen instantly. He looked like he had been stabbed. This wasn't her first time being so ruthless with him.Nonetheless, it broke his heart every single time. He found it hard to confront her. Did she really have to be this distant?"Hannah, sometimes I really doubt you have a heart."He wet his lips and let out a self-deprecating chuckle as he continued, "Am I really nothing t

    Not only was Hannah not honored by Nigel's affection, but she thought it was disgusting as well.Her distant and disdainful attitude hurt his pride. His expression changed drastically as he failed to suppress the negative emotions swelling up in him. "I was mistaken about you. I didn't expect you'd be this cold and selfish."Without any mercy, he bombarded her with insults, looking nothing like the man who'd just confessed his feelings for her. It seemed like something had finally struck him as he bellowed cynically, "My mom was right. You're neglecting us because you married into the Winchester family, and you think you're above everyone else. It's such a shame that I used to like you, and I even argued with my family for your sake."He scoffed, and continued while glaring at her with his bloodshot eyes, "You don't know what love is, and you have no respect for others. I regret liking you back then."Things hadn't been smooth for Nigel lately. Moore Group had been in deep

    "Isn't it true? Hannah's nothing but a selfish and shrewd woman who only takes advantage of others!"Nigel snarled confidently, "Since she did this to me once, you lot will be her next victim. She's only nice to you for the money, and she won't hesitate to betray you for more money!"He spoke as if he had been betrayed. Hannah was at a loss for words. She really wasn't even close with him. How could she constantly linger on those thoughts when she was already starving?Not only did she have to survive in the slums, but she still had to take care of Molly, Flynn, Avery, and Taylor. She poured in all her efforts to survive, so she barely had time to tend to Nigel. After she rescued him, he had never crossed her mind. Despite him constantly trailing her, she only did so much by barely responding to him. She couldn't be bothered about him. Most of the time, she thought he was incredibly annoying. She thought it was absurd for him to tail her whenever she was working. Further

    Hannah was like a queen. She was sophisticated and elegant when being surrounded by the Winchester siblings. Darren was known to be intimidating, and no one dared to look him right in the eye. Yet, he was so gentle and docile toward her. This wasn't quite like how the rumors went. Nigel's friends were still utterly stunned with a blank expression plastered on their faces. Usually, Darren couldn't be bothered about others' opinions. He followed his heart, and he was more than satisfied after being together with Hannah briefly. Back then, he wasn't particularly fond of women. His indifference was well-known. Furthermore, he rarely got physical with others, and it made him uncomfortable if someone got too close to him. It wasn't until he met Hannah did he realize he didn't hate touching, caressing, and kissing at all. Instead, he longed for intimacy with her. He couldn't wait to be closer to her. He loved how he could hold her hand, hug her, and kiss her. At this point, he

    Hannah's gaze was thick with scrutiny as her gaze swept across Nigel. She couldn't help but scoff as she replied, "What right do you have to compete with Darren?"Why on earth would an elephant be bothered by a challenge from an ant?She was wondering why he, who was still relying on his family, had the nerve to humiliate himself in front of Darren. Where did his confidence sprout from?Feeling infuriated and helpless, she sighed, "Why are you so confident, yet so gullible?"Nigel's face turned red with anger. At this point, he had very complicated feelings for Hannah. On one hand, he thought he saw right through her and she was nothing but a materialistic woman. On the other hand, he couldn't help himself from falling for her. He was desperate for her attention; he wanted to make her regret it. He loved her, yet he resented her as well. Thus, her attitude made him feel like he had been stabbed. "You're going to chicken out, aren't you?" he hissed, glaring at Darren wit

    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

    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. 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
