Hannah's fingers twitched. She suddenly couldn't bring herself to accept the gift. "Ms. Emerson, why don't you take a look at it first?"Fabian's eyes glinted, sensing her hesitation. When she met his eyes again, only delight was evident in his eyes. "You can decide whether you'd like to accept or not after you have a look at it."Since he phrased it that way, she couldn't possibly refuse again. Her eyes lit up when she saw the contents of the document after flipping it open. "Did the government approve my reformation plan for Roberson?"It was more like starting over rather than a reformation. As a foreign trade company, Roberson was significant due to its close connections with the government. However, it suffered from chronic losses under Hailee's management. All her attention was on benefiting herself and leeching off Winchester Group. She didn't even bother to operate her company properly. Roberson had barely achieved its original objectives ever since it was founde
Darren took in the sight of Hannah's captivating eyes and plump lips. His gaze darkened as he stared at her, swallowing hard. She noticed his reaction and broke into a grin. She knew what was up, yet she touched his lips gently, saying, "What vulgar thoughts are you having now, Darren?""They aren't vulgar."Tightening his grip on her waist, he closed the distance between them. He growled, "It's something I've been wanting to do."He dove down and devoured her lips. There were too many people around at the banquet, and he had to be careful of her makeup. He couldn't kiss her properly. Now that he had the opportunity, he reveled in it. His lashes cast a shadow on his face, contouring his features. Despite his cold demeanor, he seemed gentle. A suggestive chuckle escaped Hannah's lips as she threw her arms around Darren's neck. Both of them had a few glasses of wine at the banquet. Given their status, no one dared to coerce them into drinking too much. Nonetheless, she fel
Taylor remained unmoved by Saige's advances, decisively creating distance to avoid being involved in the matter.Saige opened his mouth, an inexplicable feeling surging in his heart.He genuinely liked her spicy personality.The more she rejected them, the more he felt the desire to conquer her. He felt confident in winning her over.However, now…Looking at Hannah's cold gaze, he felt an uncertainty in his heart and momentarily felt a little hollow. "I… I don't necessarily need you to agree. I am free to like whomever I want. But you can't stop me from liking you, right?"He tried to prop up his chest and said, "If you want to focus on your studies now, I'll wait for you. You can't always treat me as if I'm a bad person, right? Do I not even have the right to pursue someone I like?"He managed to speak a few words properly for a change.Taylor's face showed a hint of confusion. She pointed at herself and asked, "You said you're pursuing me?""Of course!"Saige nodded and ask
"How come I didn't know Taylor was nicknamed 'Riri'?"Shaking the card in her hand, Hannah sneered, "Or is it that Mr. Lautner also didn't know about the card in this bouquet of roses?""You gave me another woman's roses?"Taylor widened her eyes in disbelief. Then, a feeling of disgust surged within her as she said disdainfully, "You didn't even throw away the card. Do you think I'm a fool or did you assume I wouldn't accept it?"No wonder she bumped into Saige holding a bouquet of roses as she exited the room after checking the flowers.She thought he knew she was there and had deliberately waited for her there. She thought he was just a stalker.Now that she thought about it, everything was probably just a coincidence.He was just shameless!How could he bring the roses meant for another woman to her? Or could it even be something that the other woman had rejected?The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Taylor couldn't help but cross her arms and say, "I'm t
Taylor's eyes showed no lingering affection for Saige.It was obvious that she'd never had any feelings for him.Seeing this, Hannah relaxed slightly, but she still reminded Taylor, "Your studies are the most important thing now. Don't think about other things, okay?""I know."Looking at Hannah's soft expression, Taylor became lively again.Sticking out her tongue, she replied immediately without even casting a glance at Saige still sitting on the ground.Taylor hugged Hannah's arm and shared her plans with a face full of joy. "After filming ends, I'll attend tutoring classes to catch up on my studies, and then I'll help out at the store after class…"Her voice was full of youthful vigor and carefree vitality.Listening to Taylor's clear voice, Hannah couldn't help but show a slight smile.It seemed that she had been unnecessarily vigilant.With Hannah protecting her in this life, Taylor would never fall into the same situation again.Everything was different now."Don't y
She lifted her hand and used her thumb to indicate a very small distance on her pinky.She thought to herself that she was probably spoiled by Darren.She had gotten used to him always putting her first and always doing far more than she could ever ask for, no matter what.But it was not like he could read her mind.She couldn't expect him to always meet her expectations and always satisfy her.Being together meant mutual tolerance.He was already so good to her; she shouldn't ask for too much."Really?"Darren raised an eyebrow, he asked, "Is it really okay even if there's no gift?""Mr. Winchester, how about a kiss then?"Hannah leaned softly into his embrace and circled her arms around his neck.She gave him a defenseless smile and said sweetly, "Mr. Winchester, you are the best gift I've ever received."Looking at her, Darren felt his heart melt.How could she be so sweet and cute?He couldn't help but bend down to kiss her full and sweet lips and savor her taste.It
"You're mine, Hannah."Darren embraced her, hot kisses landing delicately on her face as he said in a voice filled with satisfaction, "Hannah, you're forever mine."She had promised him.She wanted to grow old with him and spend the rest of her life with him.She had no chance to regret it anymore.Hannah felt like she was being hugged by an enthusiastically big dog.Her heart was filled with sweetness. Her emotions swelled inexplicably. She just knew her lips felt stiff, and she couldn't stop smiling."I'm glad that I'm yours, Mr. Winchester," she responded sweetly, feeling the pleasant scent of pine wood.With unprecedented peace and satisfaction, she hugged Darren's lean waist tightly and took a deep breath. "Mr. Winchester, I can't wait for our wedding."She wanted to hold hands with him in front of everyone, with Molly as her witness.She wanted them to love each other openly, to have a wedding ceremony, and to receive everyone's blessings together."It won't be long."
Hannah had large eyes that always exuded a hint of charm and coldness when she looked at people.Now, due to her confusion, they were wide and round, looking somewhat like an innocent kitten.She appeared naive and cute.This appearance softened Darren's originally somewhat frustrated heart.He raised his hand and pinched her cheek while helplessly sighing softly. "It's not any special day. I just want to bring you to try on some wedding dresses."As he said that, he sat up on the carpet and pulled her up as well."Hannah, you haven't forgotten that we still need to have a wedding, have you?"He half-jokingly said, "Even if you are busy, you still need to set aside time to prepare for it.""I'm sorry."Hearing him say that, Hannah felt even more guilty.She had indeed been busy lately.She moved closer and hugged his arm in a coquettish manner, a sweet smile appearing on her face.Hannah took the initiative to plant a kiss on his cheek. "Let me get ready, and we'll go toget
