Hannah nibbled on her bread, looking at Darren eagerly.Her eyes which always had a hint of coldness were teary and round, inexplicably showing a hint of pitifulness.Darren hardened his heart and turned away. "At least finish your milk before we leave."Seeing his firm expression, Hannah had no choice but to eat her breakfast quietly.After she finished eating, the couple drove to the police station.While on the road, there were new notifications on their phones.It was a Twitter post by Misty."Human life is the most precious. A trivial dispute shouldn't be the cause of taking someone's life. I hope the law can punish these malicious people severely and not let any criminal go unpunished."Albie is a good friend of mine. She was always a cheerful and kind young woman. I hope she can get out of danger soon."I will continue to follow this matter. I hope that the criminal will receive the punishment they deserve."She even tagged Taylor, Albie, and the Hophur District Police
The familiar voice paused for a moment then they spotted Hannah and Darren.Immediately, a completely hypocritical tone feigning surprise could be heard, "Mr. Winchester, Hannah! Why are you here too?"It was Misty.She was still wearing a white dress with her long dark hair cascading behind her, revealing her pure face.There was live streaming equipment in front of her, so she plastered on a smile with a glimmer of smugness in her eyes.Sure enough, as she expected, she would run into Hannah by coming near the police station at this time.Today, she had subtly stepped on Hannah online, garnering praise from many onlookers for her righteous words, and her Twitter followers had increased significantly.Even some businesses took notice of her popularity and started contacting her, hoping to hire her as a spokesperson.Having reaped the benefits, Misty became even more arrogant.This undoubtedly represented her chance for a comeback.More importantly, these things came from deg
Every industry had an internal hierarchy.Movie stars looked down on TV drama stars, true actors looked down on commercial actors, and even minor celebrities showed their disdain toward low-entry influencers.When Misty debuted, her first role was in Henry Yates' movie. How could she accept herself falling into the influencer category?Her face almost contorted with rage, and she exerted all her strength to prevent herself from losing her composure on the spot.However, resentment had already crept into her eyes."Hannah, please don't speak nonsense. I've never considered live streaming as my career."She gritted her teeth, speaking slowly, "I only want to use my own power to contribute to those poor children. These livestreams were just to let my fans supervise me."Moreover…"She lowered her eyes, revealing her meticulously crafted perfect smile.She said in a sweet and sincere voice, "My fans are all kind people. They will definitely be willing to contribute to charity with
At this time, a cold voice could be heard.Darren took a step forward, his tall figure bringing a strong sense of oppression.His dark eyes were deep and cold, and his face became darker after his eyes swept across the comments in the livestream.Hannah was the apple of his eye. He would feel distressed if she was even the slightest bit inconvenienced. What right did Misty have to be sarcastic and deliberately incite criticism against Hannah?If Darren spent enough time on the Internet, he would probably understand that Misty was completely gaslighting everyone in the livestream.Her words were full of implications. Even though she appeared gentle and considerate on the surface, she was deliberately sowing discord underneath.However, this didn't affect his protection of Hannah.The man's gaze and tone turned cold. "It doesn't matter whether Hannah likes children or not. You don't have the right to speak for her."His voice was full of disdain and indifference.For some reason
His tone was calm and confident. He maintained a proficient and protective stance for Hannah. It was as if Hannah's personal desires were the most important to him. It evoked admiration and jealousy in others. Misty's eyes were turning red. She looked at him in disbelief. "Mr. Winchester, aren't you afraid this will have a negative impact on the Winchesters? The Winchesters are a product of your hard work, after all."How could this be possible?The current status of the Winchesters was achieved through Darren's efforts.Could he really disregard his years of hard work, even if it meant being implicated by Hannah? "Do you think I want to make the Winchesters powerful so that my family suffers for it?" Darren found it amusing. He lifted his head. "The growth of the company depends on my abilities, and failure will be due to my incompetence. What does that have to do with Hannah? "I work hard to develop the Winchesters so that my family can live more freely." He
Misty thought about Matthew's recent misfortune and his cruel personality, and a slight smile appeared on her face.She seemed to envision herself devouring Hannah's flesh and advancing toward a brighter future."You seem very confident." Hannah's gaze landed on her face.She didn't fail to notice Misty's malice, but she wasn't afraid. She already had a plan in mind and was waiting for the final response. Hannah noticed Misty's confident expression, and she raised a smile sarcastically. "If Mr. Emerson knew you were thinking so much about him, he would be deeply moved, wouldn't he?" Recently, Emerson Corporation had been gradually losing ground under pressure from the Winchesters. Matthew was pushed to the edge. He had called Hannah many times, but she ignored him and even blocked his number. Thus, if she really lowered her head to Matthew now, she could guess what kind of request he would make. He probably wished he could crack open her bones and suck out her
How could she not see the disdain in Hannah's eyes? It was clearly mockery. Still, she couldn't react in front of the live camera. After all, compared to leaving the entertainment industry, revealing her love life seemed more like a harmless piece of gossip. Even variety shows had segments like that. If she didn't comply, wouldn't it seem like she had something to hide? She had to control her expression and bite down hard on her teeth. After a while, Misty, with clenched teeth, managed to squeeze out a few words. "Hannah, since you insist on this, fine, I agree to the bet." She would absolutely not lose! She would not allow any chance of a comeback for Hannah! She wanted Hannah to witness Taylor unjustly suffering and having her life ruined forever. She wanted to see Hannah crushed by Matthew and become a stepping stone for her. Her malice almost materialized, and her resentful gaze made people particularly uncomfortable. Hannah, however, seemed unfa
As she spoke, her eyes suddenly lit up. She said in an urgent tone, "Maybe Taylor established contact with that staff member because of this incident?" At this point, her mind was spinning rapidly. Seizing the opportunity, she looked at Hannah triumphantly and sneered, "This video proves nothing at all." In fact, she made some sense. The audience in the livestream quickly adopted her skewed perspective and began hesitatingly supporting her. "This only proves that Taylor helped the staff member and doesn't necessarily clear her of any wrongdoings!" "Can someone who comforts sick fans with such kindness really do something as heinous as hiring someone to commit murder?" "Maybe she deliberately approached the staff member to get him to do things for her!" The comments section quickly became a chaotic mix of opinions, with no one convincing anyone else. "Feel free to stick to your stubbornness." Hannah smirked. There was a glint of darkness in her eyes.
