Darren must have left early in the morning. She could almost imagine Darren strolling through the rugged mountain trails, selecting different flowers with love and tenderness. Then, under the golden morning sun, he returned to her, casually handing her the bouquet full of love. The bouquet was arranged in a pleasingly irregular manner. Hannah couldn't help but hold it close. Her nose was filled with the intoxicating fragrance of the flowers. It was refreshing and charming and not too intense. Even though the scent of the various flowers blended together, they still smelled heavenly."I like it. Thank you for the gift, Mr. Winchester."She smiled, and her eyes flickered with genuine joy. After a moment of hesitation, she tiptoed and planted a gentle kiss on his lips. "Mr. Winchester, thank you for your efforts."She held the bouquet tightly in her arms as if cradling a precious treasure. The wildflowers might not be worth much, but Darren's thoughts were priceless."As long
Should Darren put Nigel in his place? Nigel didn't deserve it.He was not of the same social class.Maybe he'd read too many novels and assumed he was the chosen one who could make a comeback."You should avoid dreaming about unrealistic things," Hannah said with a hint of pity. She gave him the once-over. Then, she proceeded to add on with a smile. "Otherwise, it's easy to neglect reality, be too ambitious, and offend the wrong people."Even if Nigel had to dream. He has to at least be realistic about it.Even if the tables did turn, what made him think that he could step on Darren one day?Was it because he was shameless? Was it because he had wishful thinking? Or was he better at playing dirty tricks?Nigel was already on edge, his nerves taut. The way she gazed at him stung. She pitied him and felt sorry for him. In the past, even when he was pursuing her, he was always high and mighty.He was always the one who was in charge, and she was just along for the ride.H
The time to wrap up had come. There was nothing to hide.Hannah should be enjoying the joy of the outcome, so what was there to hide?Compared to her joy, Nigel was going insane.His eyes were in a trance, and he didn't care about anything for a while. His mind was in chaos.He muttered instinctively, "No, this is not possible ..."How could she be responsible for what happened to Moore Group?Then, wouldn't he be the one to blame for Moore Group's demise?He was only led astray and couldn't resist joining Matthew's evil plans. How could he have caused his family to go bankrupt?Yet, thinking about the series of happenings, it seemed as if someone was pulling the strings from behind the curtain.No matter how unwilling he was to accept it, he couldn't help but believe it a little now.This was her revenge.Before Nigel continued his madness, Darren bent down and helped him up. His face was as cold as ice, and he threw Nigel out. He said in a harsh voice, "Beat it! Don't sh
The hot springs were very comfortable, and everyone felt much more relaxed after having a soak.It was about time to leave. So, after a short rest, they packed up and headed back.Hannah neatly packed the bouquet again and brought it along as they left together.Upon reaching the entrance of Corbay Resort, they saw a petite figure curled up in a ball by the roadside, looking pathetic."Ms. Moore?"Hannah frowned, slightly surprised. "What are you doing here?"After all, having interacted with her for so long in her past life, Hannah recognized Lila.Hearing her voice, the huddled figure stiffened momentarily. Then, she raised her hand and rubbed her eyes awkwardly.Only then did Lila stand up, her eyes red and swollen. Her gaze fixed on Hannah as she asked, "Ms. Emerson, can I speak to you in private?"To be honest, Hannah had never expected to encounter such a situation in her previous life.Lila was always arrogant and disdainful, believing that Hannah was not worthy of Nig
Lila felt somehow complicated. She felt empty. She had no idea why a wave of sorrow washed through her as she was equally clueless about her jealousy. It was as if she lost the care and affection she should have received. Nonetheless, she felt like she had experienced it before.However, that wasn't possible. She thought she must've been imagining things, given how hard things had been for her recently. Lila couldn't help but let out a self-deprecating laugh. Back then, she thought Catherine was the perfect sister-in-law. She was deemed to marry Nigel.Thus, she despised Hannah and looked down on her. Little did she know Hannah, in fact, had no interest in the Moore family. It was already too late when it finally struck Lila how arrogant she and her family had been. She realized how rude they had been for detesting others. As she sniffed, she cleared her thoughts and whispered, "Sorry, I haven't got someone to talk to these days, so I couldn't help myself from blurting th
Lila found it hard to believe that Nigel and Catherine would do such a thing. To her, Nigel had always been very competent and cheerful; and Catherine was a kind, gentle, and beautiful soul.How could this be?Yet, the truth indicated that they were so much more than what she imagined. Their cruelty was beyond her imagination. "I bet you have no idea that Catherine was also involved in the Internet commotion."When Nigel caused such a big scene at his engagement party, did he even care what others thought of me and how I should spend the rest of my life? He completely ignored my rejection and insisted on confessing."Hannah scoffed."The reason why I'm still fine now wasn't because he spared me. It's merely because I have power, and I'm fortunate enough."If it wasn't for Darren coming to the rescue or her capability to handle the situation, things would have taken an entirely different turn. She would have been bullied on the Internet, living her discreet life in misery if s
Being considerate toward Lila didn't imply that Hannah would give up her plans for her. Moreover, she didn't owe Lila anything. She thought she was already quite forgiving for keeping her accountable for what she did to her in her previous life. How on earth did Lila expect that she was going to change her mind?Hannah was well aware that she wasn't a saint. She wouldn't let the Moores be in her favor. Lila's eyes reddened. She hung her head low in embarrassment, tears trickling down her cheeks instantly. She had no idea she said that earlier. It was as if she was possessed, feeling righteous that Hannah was obliged to forgive and tolerate her. Though she was embarrassed by herself, she couldn't stop the flicker of hope fluttering in her chest. However, her hope was ruthlessly shattered to pieces. Humiliation and hopelessness were all that remained. She couldn't help but clasp her hands on her face as she sobbed in distress. Her shoulders were bobbing from devastation, m
"Look! She couldn't even be bothered about you guys!"Catherine was getting more and more riled up as she was reminded of how Hannah treated them. Vicious like a viper, she spat, "You're so poor that you're asking money from me, your wife! Yet, you had the audacity to donate to her foundation. Do you really think you can afford to spend ten million dollars at the moment?"This was incredibly ridiculous. When Nigel got home, she forced him to let her go through his transaction records. She almost blacked out when she saw Starlight Foundation was the recipient. Needless to say, she suffered a meltdown. It was undoubtedly Hannah's fault for causing the Moore Group to end up in this miserable state. Yet, not only did Nigel not resent her, but he even donated ten million dollars to her foundation. Even if there weren't any issues with the company, ten million dollars was still a big deal. Catherine simply couldn't comprehend how Nigel was still ignoring her. Instead, he was fa
