Darren turned his gaze toward Hannah and lifted his brows slightly. He asked, "Why did you sigh, Hannah?"

Hannah lifted her gaze to meet his.

The man in front of her was tall and slender.

He exuded an intimidating aura just by standing there.

Nobody could deny his attractiveness nor ignore his power.

He looked completely different from the thin and gloomy man who locked himself in the dark room when Hannah first met him.

"Mr. Winchester, you already found out that the mastermind who instructed Dr. Greydon to switch up the medicine back then was Robert, didn't you?"

She continued softly, "Of course. You're so smart that there's nothing in this world that can escape your eyes. Back then, when you passed Winchester Group into Robert's hands…"

She pursed her lips.

At that moment, she didn't know how to continue.

She couldn't imagine what thoughts were running through Darren's mind when he locked himself in that dark room.

In the novel, this man, who could think of anythin

    Darren was so consumed in his own negative thoughts that his eyes became bloodshot, and his entire demeanor became increasingly terrifying. He grew increasingly paranoid and felt as if there was a heavy weight in his heart that was dragging him to the depths of sorrow. Just then, a cool and gentle hand cupped his face. The familiar touch caused his tense body to relax instinctively as he yielded toward the gentle force. Then, he felt the figure in his arm attempting to pull away, as if wanting to distance themselves and desperate to leave his embrace. Did Hannah want to distance herself from him?Did Hannah also want to leave him?Instinctively, Darren wanted to pull her back into his tight embrace. He refused to let her break free. However, the moment he was about to execute force, he let go abruptly and let her pull away as she desired. He realized that compared to losing her, he was more terrified of hurting her. He was afraid of seeing the anger and rejection on h

    Couples were supposed to stick together, right?He was clearly just exercising his privileges as a boyfriend.However, it seemed as if Hannah had already become slightly immune to his subtle acts of flirting. She stared at him calmly, pursed her lips, and remained silent. Darren's lips were pressed into a straight line and seemed to look even more pitiful. It was as if he had magically sprouted adorable, fluffy ears that drooped down the side of his head from being wronged. He released her from his embrace but still held her hands in his. He said with a serious expression, "Hannah, please tell me if you find me annoying.""Would you change even if I told you, Mr. Winchester?"Hannah looked at him and couldn't help but find him adorable. The longer she spent time with him, the more she was certain that the man in front of her wasn't as cold as he seemed on the outside. Instead, he was extremely warm and clingy. It was just that he found it hard to express himself. Darr

    Mr. Oakes immediately picked up on Oliver's hint. He flashed a smile at Kaden and quickly passed Hannah the enrollment manual."Ms. Emerson, I'm sure you've heard of Hopeldon University's esteemed reputation."He said warmly, "We're eager for you to join us. Professor Noland brought me here early in the morning as he was afraid that you might choose another university. "I know that the Winchesters are financially comfortable. Nevertheless, for an outstanding student like yourself, Ms. Emerson, the university is willing to waive your tuition fees and even offer generous scholarships at the end of the semester."It was no wonder that he was a member of staff from a prestigious university. He spoke with such calmness despite the current situation. Furthermore, his demeanor contributed to a positive and comfortable atmosphere. He made his purpose clear when he emphasized Hannah being an outstanding student.Their visit was for recruiting Hannah as a student, and not because of

    "Even so, are you not going to change your mind?"He looked at Hannah firmly.Indeed, becoming the disciple of an industry giant and working on a project with him was like reaching the sky in one step. Moreover, Oliver made it clear that he would lead Hannah in the project. Many doctoral students might not receive such attention.Hannah, however, looked at him calmly with a faint smile. "Professor Noland, would I still be the person you appreciated if I do change my mind?""Hmph!"Oliver grunted as if he was fuming with rage."Do whatever you want. I don't care!"He turned around angrily and walked away. Yet, after taking a few steps, he suddenly stopped and said in a serious tone, "Hopeldon University runs a pretty good journalism major. They have produced several famous investigative journalists. Other than Einstein University, no other school's journalism major can be compared to that of Hopeldon University's."With that said, he left.Hannah couldn't help but chuckle as

    It was actually a pretty busy time with people coming and going all around.However, Flynn and Hannah seemed to be enveloped by an invisible barrier after Taylor and Avery left. It was as if the world had narrowed down to just the two of them.Amidst the hustle and bustle, there was also a serene quietness. Despite the gentle music and chatter around them, Flynn could almost hear the sound of his own blood flowing and his heartbeat.He licked his lips and felt a slight dryness in his mouth from the illusion of being alone with her.    "You didn't have to." Hannah didn't notice his unease and graciously accepted the gift.Her bright eyes formed crescents as she chuckled softly. "I'm delighted. Thank you!"She shook the beautifully wrapped box and tilted her head while asking, "Can I open it now?""Of course." Flynn felt dry in his throat and cleared it before giving a reply.  With that, Hannah lowered her head to reveal the top of her head and a little of the soft skin

    Hannah pursed her lips.After all, how could she not be anxious?Going abroad was not a trivial matter, and Flynn's implication was clear that he wouldn't be back for a short while.In her past life, she had witnessed the dire consequences of caring too little for her friends.The previous experience was too grueling and overwhelming for Hannah to take it lightly at all.Flynn was somewhat surprised by her strong reaction. He fell into a moment of silence.After that, he lifted an easy smile and acted as if it were nothing. "I'm not a child anymore. Why are you so anxious? Don't worry. Everything will be fine."Hannah didn't say anything but had her eyes fixed on him.It seemed she wouldn't let it go until he made things clear.Flynn was a little helpless after seeing that look of hers.He sighed and quietly said, "My parents found me."Real orphans with institutional support usually grew up in a welfare center.Some slum children, like Hannah, lived with the elderly, who h

    Hannah's heart sank.They had grown up together. How could she not know the look on Flynn's face that proved he wouldn't change his mind?Moreover, there was a burning flame in the depths of his eyes, as if some wild ambition was ablaze.She was a little stunned.While she had been focused on urging him not to repeat the mistakes of their past life and hoping he would lead a peaceful and happy life, she had never truly understood what he actually wanted.Now that he had made a decision, how could she, as a friend, restrict the wings of his aspirations to soar high?"Have you told Taylor and Ave about this?" She finally decided to compromise and whispered, "You've just met them, and there must be a lot to deal with. You won't be able to come back for a short time. If you don't tell them about this, Taylor will definitely make a fuss."Flynn's smile became even more sincere.His eyes were on hers.

    "Mr. Winchester."Hannah was somewhat surprised and amused. She poked his chest and smiled. "Are you jealous? Huh? Why are you even jealous of Flynn? To me, Flynn is no different from Anthony and Andrew."They were like her younger brothers. Although they were not blood-related, the bond between them was inseparable. Over the years, they had become her family."Well, why don't you check if I taste sour or not."  Darren ignored her question. Instead, he seized her hand and lowered his head to kiss her lips.Flynn?He'd be unhappy even if it were Anthony and Andrew who took up Hannah's time, let alone Flynn.No one was allowed to take her time.  Hannah couldn't understand him for some reason, and she was speechless.  "Mr. Winchester, we are in public now."  She smiled and pressed her finger against his lips before she looked around. "Aren't you embarrassed?" Was he still the Mr. Winchester who would blush at her words in the past?  Now, he dared to ask her for a kis

    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 was just a poor guy with nothing but debt to his name.He had tried to recover his past memories and find his roots.He had been searching for decades, and even after getting married and having a daughter, he continued searching while struggling for a living.He never expected that just when he was gradually forgetting about this matter, life would suddenly take a new turn.This seemed a bit too dramatic.  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
