The doctor adjusted his glasses again under her unwavering stare. "Excuse me, Madam?""Oh, it's nothing." Hannah smiled. "Thanks for everything you do, doctor. Mr. Winchester's legs are still bothering him. Does that mean he still can recover completely from his condition?"The doctor's hands trembled once more. He frowned. Then, after a brief pause, he said, "My skills are limited, Mrs. Winchester. I'm afraid I can't cure Mr. Winchester. If you don't believe in my expertise, you're welcome to consult a renowned specialist."His words seemed to carry his dissatisfaction toward her questioning of his abilities."Madam." Bryan nudged her softly. "We've consulted numerous experts when Mr. Winchester first had his accident. "Dr. Greydon received his medical degree from abroad. His achievements in the field of surgery are also exceptional." "I hope you're not offended by my casual remark, Dr. Greydon," Hannah said. Then, she exchanged a thoughtful glance with Darren. "If there

It was Anthony, the second child of the family. Hannah glanced out the window. The moon hid behind dark clouds, and thunder rumbled with flashes of lightning from time to time. The strong wind howled. The rain was coming.The mountain road was also called "Death Route." It got that name because of its uneven surface and winding paths. There were steep cliffs on one side and a chasm on the other. There were many twists and turns. Many accidents happened on that road.Anyone who drove on Death Route during the day had to be careful. As such, racing on it in such a heavy rainstorm was almost unheard of.It was reckless.Hannah's expression darkened. She pulled her jacket tighter around her slender figure. "There's no need to wake Mr. Winchester up. I can handle it," she said coldly.Bryan hesitated for a moment. Then he said, "Madam, please let me drive." Rain began to pour at that moment. The wind howled, and the storm raged on. Occasional flashes of lightning appeared i

Anthony remained silent. But his usually indifferent eyes suddenly seemed to light up with something."You're quite stubborn," Hannah said. She stopped after hitting him three times.Anthony refused to admit his mistake, but Hannah didn't seem angry. "Since you don't want to admit you were wrong, I'll give you time to think it over. Until you figure it out …" Hannah said calmly and trailed off.She shot him a faint smile and continued warmly, "Well, if you have any other activities in mind, you can come find me. I promise that we'll have a good time together."Anthony did not say a word. His hands curled into fists. He felt a slight burning pain as he tightened his grip. He was not used to such feelings.Hannah turned to the housekeeper, who had been frightened into silence. "Mrs. Tate, please make some chicken soup for Anthony. Don't forget to apply some ointment on his palm," Hannah instructed."Yes, Madam. Would you like a bowl for yourself as well? Why don't you go wash

Life was unfair.How can someone as shallow and ignorant as Hannah have such extraordinary beauty? It was simply a waste."Oh? Then how should I maintain my beauty?" Hannah asked with an interested smile. She saw how Jane's face contorted with envy. "Well, it's only natural that you should only show yourself in front of others with makeup on. You have to look energetic and radiant. This color is one that men go crazy for in the elite circles this year," Jane said. Her excitement was evident. She opened the lipstick in her hand eagerly."This lipstick is like a magical tool. It can complement a person's complexion very well. Hannah, this shade will look perfect on you. "Try it on. You'll definitely attract the attention of everyone in the room. Come on," Jane urged as she handed the lipstick to Hannah.It was a fluorescent pink lipstick, also known as "Dying Barbie Pink." The color was one that even those who aimed for a perfect Barbie look often struggled to pull off.For pe

Misty wore a champagne-colored cocktail dress. She had a diamond-studded tiara perched on her head. She looked like a princess and attracted the attention of most of the guests.Claudia took in her daughter's appearance proudly. She whispered, "Make sure to put on a good performance later. Once you become Ms. Yakes' apprentice, you'll definitely be able to marry into a wealthy family." Misty frowned as though she felt uncomfortable by her mother's blunt words. She replied in an equally low voice, "Mom, stop reminding me. I know what I need to do."Misty was young and beautiful. She looked innocent, yet the look in her eyes was downright predatory. Once she got rid of that disabled man, she could live a better life.Claudia didn't mind Misty's tone. She replied with a smile, "I know. You've always been my pride and joy."Compared to the other guests present, the Emersons were insignificant. It had taken quite a bit of effort on their end just to be able to attend the party. Ja
