A Second Chance at Romance Chapter 749 Teach Her a Lesson
Muffled, yet resounding knocks echoed outside. Zachary stood at the door with a smile. His tone was mischievous as he teasingly asked her, "Ms. Emerson, are you in there?"Silence hung in the study. Not a sound was heard. It was as if no one was there. However, he had his men guarding the staircase, and they had thoroughly searched every room. There was no place for Hannah to hide except the study. The glee in his eyes grew as this realization dawned on him. He could imagine her being frightened in the room, covering her mouth in fear. Her eyes would widen as she stared at the door, shuddering in fear and anticipation. Was she hoping that he couldn't get in? Or was she anticipating someone to suddenly appear and rescue her?It would be naive of her to think that. Even if she called for help, it would take quite some time for help to arrive. He'd have ample time to do whatever he wanted and discipline her to his liking. After all, the Lautner manor was located in a secluded

Although it was clear that she had been cornered with no way to escape, she didn't seem flustered at all. Instead, the smile on her face widened. Grabbing another flower pot, she murmured, "It's too bad that I've lost interest in playing with you, Mr. Lautner."As she spoke, she took two steps back and leaned back against the floor-length window."What do you think this place is? Do you think you can just come and go from the manor as you please?"Zachary sneered and covered his forehead with his hand. His eyes glinted with malice as he snarled, "You'd better stay here today!"It was her fault that Saige, his only son, was being interrogated at the police station. He couldn't even bail him out. Moreover, she caused such a huge ruckus today, making him suffer tremendously. How dare she have the audacity to leave?What a naive woman. His reputation over the years would be in vain if he didn't make her kneel and cry before him, begging for his mercy. He vowed in his heart that

Hannah was still human, after all. She wasn't divine. Though she was adept in fighting with her improved agility and strength after her rebirth, it simply wasn't possible for her to fall to the fourth floor without suffering from any injuries. She did manage to reduce her momentum while she fell, but the most she could do was to make sure she wouldn't die or become severely crippled. It couldn't be helped if she broke her leg. However, the consequences didn't seem to faze her at all. The smile on her face was dazzling. "For goodness sake, Hannah," Darren gasped in her earpiece. She could still hear him catching his breath. In the next instant, she fell into a warm and firm embrace. A familiar pinewood scent wafted through her nose. Darren's attractive voice echoed in the earpiece and beside her, his chest vibrating as he spoke. His voice was to die for. "I've received your parcel. Is the fragile item satisfied now?""Darren," she called, her eyes fluttering open. She was

"Grandma's still waiting for us back home, so we'll get going now," Darren said indifferently.Though he phrased it politely, his tone was commanding. He didn't allow any room for discussion. Zachary looked like someone had just punched the living daylights out of him. How dare Darren, who was much younger than him, treat him this way?"Mr. Winchester, I invited Ms. Emerson over for a meal because I wanted to be on good terms with Winchester Group."He scoffed before quickly changing his way of speech. Now that Darren was here, it wasn't appropriate for him to behave recklessly. Instead, he spoke in a businesslike tone. Though he seemed glum, he managed to look composed as he continued, "But it seems like Ms. Emerson doesn't appreciate it.""Oh?"Darren's gaze swept past him as he replied calmly, "Then forget it if she doesn't appreciate it. Winchester Group doesn't mingle much with the entertainment industry where Starshine Entertainment belongs to. Her attitude speaks for me

Zachary was caught off guard by Darren. It was tough to fathom his thoughts, though he was around Saige's age. They were both in their twenties, yet Saige was only capable of getting in trouble and messing with women. On the contrary, Darren held himself with poise as he drove Zachary into a corner. He began to wonder whether he'd been too soft on Saige. His thoughts wandered despite his current predicament. Finally coming back to his senses, he forced a dry chuckle. Feeling uneasy, he inquired, "Then… what are your thoughts, Mr. Winchester?""We're always easy to reason with, Mr. Lautner. Of course, we'll compensate you."Darren dropped his gaze, and continued matter-of-factly, "How about this? We'll pay for all medical expenses for everyone's injuries, and we'll also offer a thousand dollars to each of you as compensation. As for the damaged assets at your manor, please enlighten me on whether you'd prefer compensation or having them fixed."He spoke confidently, looking lik

Zachary's forehead instinctively throbbed in pain once he saw Hannah's face. His veins throbbed, sending a jolt of pain through his wound. He grimaced and inhaled sharply. "Mr. Lautner," Hannah called out, glancing up at him. Her expression was stoic as she said, "Don't you think it's better to put your efforts into something more worthy of them?"His expression darkened as he glared at her. He snarled, "What do you mean, Ms. Emerson?""Nothing much. It was just a tiny suggestion," she replied, flashing a suggestive smile at him before chirping, "I just thought it would be better for you to do more good deeds and move on, rather than having to wrack your brains to save a piece of trash."The smile on her face was captivating, yet her words weren't quite so. She was harsh. "What comes around goes around, Mr. Lautner. It's best if you heed my advice…"Zachary scowled at her, and she certainly believed that he used to be on the streets judging by his looks. If he could have an

Hannah's heart skipped a beat. It seemed like Darren was genuinely angry. Usually, she didn't even have to wheedle him into forgiving her. He would surrender whenever she softened her tone.Even though he wasn't blaming her, he seemed distant now. She was certain that things would take a worse turn if she allowed him to scrutinize her injuries. "No." She put her hand behind her, shaking her head vigorously. She was determined to not let him see her injuries. They weren't severe, after all. She'd only gotten a few scratches on her arm from sliding down the wall, and she'd barely bled.The most severe injuries she suffered were the two cuts she got from the mounting bracket of the air conditioner's outdoor unit. However, the cuts weren't that deep. She bet the injuries she got from falling off a bike would be more severe than her current wounds. Though she was unfazed, she didn't dare to show how unbothered she was. She turned sideways, resting her forehead against Darren's s

The thrill Darren reveled in sent him into a state of bliss. He couldn't help but become engrossed in it, losing all his restraint as he caressed the small of Hnnah's back. All of a sudden, he tightened his grip. He closed the gap between them, pressing her luscious curves against his chest. She was trapped in his arms as he gained control over her. They locked lips in an intense and fervent kiss, relishing in the passion they had for each other. It felt like ages had passed when the kiss finally ended, and both of them were breathing unsteadily. She leaned against him, her cheeks painted with a shade of red and her eyes tearing up. "Are you satisfied with the reward, Darren?" she asked in glee, yet she was caught off guard by her own voice. She sounded hoarse and coquettish, and the way she spoke was suggestive. Darren ground his jaw the moment he heard her. He tensed instantly, causing her to stifle a laugh."I'm satisfied," he replied, his tone equally hoarse. Despite h

A Second Chance at Romance Chapter 827 The Bad Guy
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
A Second Chance at Romance Chapter 824 Lost In Thought
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
A Second Chance at Romance Chapter 821 So Ungrateful
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
A Second Chance at Romance Chapter 820 Do You Miss Me?
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. Even if the outcome disappoints me, it's fine. But old people

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
