Darren did everything for Hannah.

He felt helpless when it came to her. He looked at her and raised his hand to touch her hair gently, "No one's allowed to bully you."

"I know you are concerned about me and wanted to protect me."

The smile on her face grew wider.

Hannah felt that even if it was now summer, the warmth in her heartfelt gentle like spring.

The world felt cold to her. Life had given her too many hardships, and fate had bestowed upon her too much bitterness.

However, Darren was like the sun, brightening her world and warming her up, allowing her to enjoy life.

She said smilingly, "But I don't care about anything at all. As long as you're by my side, I'm very happy."

What once made her sad could no longer harm her.

What she once longed for would not stir anything up in her heart.

After coming to her present life, she had felt more precious emotions and had someone she wanted to love more.

All the sadness and pain, coldness, and helplessness had been left behind.

    Hannah rolled down the car window and looked over with a smile.Both men looked back at her simultaneously.Darren's gaze instantly softened, his lips involuntarily forming a smile.Fabian hesitated slightly. His gaze subtly swept over the couple without them realizing. He then said, "Ms. Emerson.""Mr. Nicholl."Hannah nodded and smiled lightly. "If you're done with things, can I steal Mr. Winchester away?""Of course. Thank you, Mr. Winchester."Fabian pressed his lips and looked at Hannah with his light brown eyes meaningfully before saying, "Ms. Emerson, you're quite the tactician. But I hope that you know when you stare into an abyss, the abyss stares back at you."He clearly implied that he knew Hannah had something to do with the Moores' bankruptcy.But what was his purpose in saying that?Was it a warning? Was it dissatisfaction?Hannah furrowed her brows slightly as she looked at him. "I am confident that my methods were all legal and reasonable. Even if an investig

    The unpleasantness caused by Fabian's warning was not gone.Hannah felt that if she said anything else, it would seem like she was bullying him.He was too upright and straightforward—always acting according to his principles.People had always said that people like Fabian could be easily deceived, but Hannah didn't want to do that to him.The smile on her face became more genuine as she let down her guard against him.She smiled brightly and said, "Mr. Nicholl, rest assured. I know what to do and what not to do. So, that day will never come."This time, her tone was much more sincere.It seemed like a serious commitment. It was as if she were assuring him that she would never cross the line.So, Fabian's expression softened even more, and a hint of amusement could be seen in his eyes.Darren's face darkened.He clenched his fists and glared coldly at Fabian before saying, "Mr. Nicholl, you must be busy. We won't take up your time. Goodbye."Without making a sound, he subtly

    Darren's domineering aura made the driver fall silent.He didn't even dare to sneak a glance at the rearview mirror.Sensing the oppressing atmosphere in the car, Hannah didn't feel scared. Instead, she found it amusing.She pressed a button to raise the partition between the rear and front compartments.Darren looked at her calmly and said in a low voice, "Hannah, what are you doing? What are you afraid to let the driver hear about?"He had always been gentle and indulgent toward her. He was always afraid of upsetting her with the wrong words.This was the first time he'd spoken to her so harshly.And there was a hint of grievance in his eyes. But he was not fierce in any way. He looked like an aggrieved large dog, acting arrogant yet coquettish.It totally melted Hannah's heart.She laughed lightly with her elbow resting on the window edge.She looked over gracefully and lazily at him with a teasing glint in her eyes. "I'm not afraid of what the driver will hear. I'm afra

    As it was still early in the day, Darren and Hannah didn't return home.Hannah still had a small smile on her face as she returned to her seat. She was still nudging Darren's fingers."Where are we going?"Darren had forgotten to tell the driver where to go as he was caught up in jealousy earlier.Now, with the soundproof partition raised, the stern man leaned back in his seat, showing a rare hint of laziness.He allowed her to keep touching his hand and tilted his head to look at her.After the driver left the neighborhood, he purposefully turned onto an unfamiliar road.Clearly, he had received instructions in advance.Hannah chuckled lightly, "I'm bringing you to see the aftermath of today's event."She looked quite interested as she smiled widely.Her naturally plump lips looked seductive when she smiled.She looked particularly charming as she pressed a finger on her lips when she was contemplating something.Darren looked confused.Looking at her gestures, his Adam's

    "Mr. Winchester, you've spoiled me too much."She obediently stopped her teasing and nestled beside him.She rested a hand on his shoulder and put her chin on it. Then, she smirked, "I wasn't so mischievous earlier."Without waiting for Darren's response, she leaned forward and kissed his cheek.Looking at him with sparkling eyes, she smiled and continued, "I'm only like this with you."So, Darren, who was initially very tolerant of her, found himself becoming increasingly helpless. He could only indulgently pull her closer.His heart had totally softened.Despite the emotions he was feeling, he couldn't express them in words. He could only look at her deeply."Why aren't you talking, Mr. Winchester?"The delicate and beautiful woman beside him was dissatisfied.Her free hand playfully poked at the muscles in his arm as she asked with a smile, "Are you angry? Or are you ignoring me? If you don't talk to me, how will I know what you're thinking?"Even though she knew his inte

    His dark eyes looked determined as he spoke in a deep voice, "I won't allow anyone to harm you even a little."How could he tolerate such a thing?Just the thought of losing her made him feel as if his heart was being torn apart.He could never even entertain the slightest possibility of losing her.Darren added confidently, "I am not Timothy Moore. I won't give anyone a chance, and I won't allow you to be hurt."He wasn't as benevolent as Timothy. Even though Timothy knew Gregory had ill intentions, he couldn't sever ties due to their relationship.Timothy even harbored a glimmer of hope for peaceful coexistence with his brother.Darren was never a good person.In the past, he had nothing to tie him down—wealth, fame, and profit were easily attainable and not worthy of his attention.So, he could tolerate having all sorts of dubious people around him.But now, everything was different.He had her. His once unyielding heart now had a soft spot.It didn't mean that she was a

    There was a moment of hesitation on Timothy's face.People say that familiarity bred timidity, and over the years, he had come to see her every month.Each time, he would fantasize about how things would turn out when everything was resolved.However, when everything finally came to an end now, he suddenly didn't know what to say or do.He stood up while stiffly holding the bouquet and stopped in front of Beatrice with his gaze fixed on her delicate chin.He couldn't seem to find the words to say to her.Beatrice stopped in her tracks.When a person's eyes couldn't see, their other senses seemed to be amplified.She could sense that someone was standing in front of her, and there was a moment of confusion on her face, followed by a slight surprise.She smiled politely and said, "Mister, you're here!"Her voice sounded joyful, as if she was meeting with a long-lost friend as she continued, "Long time no see.

    Beatrice would have managed to hide her emotions well if it weren't for her trembling hand that was holding onto her cane too tightly.The veins on the back of her pale hand bulged due to the force she was exerting.She tilted her head a little, as if she was listening to Timothy's sobs filled with remorse and regret. It also seemed she was unconcerned about his suffering."Beatrice, I dare not ask for your forgiveness, even if I wish to be with you again."Timothy finally managed to calm his emotions.His voice was hoarse as he faced her seemingly calm expression and recalled the past, even though his heart felt like it was being torn apart.He didn't want to make things difficult for her. So, he softly said, "But I will support your choice. Beatrice, we are not young anymore … Now, I just hope you can live happily."Beatrice responded with her silence.Timothy didn't seem disappointed by that. He continued to express his thoughts, "I've sold my shares to Gregory and got a lar

    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.

    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
