Semua Bab A Second Chance at Romance: Bab 251 - Bab 260

The sight of Naomi's tear-streaked face caused Hannah's temper to flare. She finally realized why the server had told her about spotting two young ladies in the private room.It turned out that Sheila was there too.Judging from Tyler's ferocious expression, it was clear that he was a criminal who had blood on his hands. This observation made Hannah's gaze grow cold, though her lips curled into a small smirk. "My younger sister has yet to come home at such a late hour. As her older sister, it's only natural for me to check things out for myself."She ignored the multitude of sinister gazes cast in her direction from everyone else as she strode into the private room casually.The lighting in the private room was quite dim. It shaped a jarring contrast to the corridor, which was illuminated brightly. Even though Hannah was just wearing a set of silk pajamas with a trench coat draped on her shoulders, she looked like a queen who had donned her battle cape.She strolled into the dar

Warm, thick blood flowed down from his head."You fucking bitch!" The man's expression twisted into a grimace. He covered his head and rushed forward while holding a bottle. "Today, I'm going to teach you a lesson properly!" he yelled.Hannah remained silent. She reached out and grabbed his wrist.Her gaze was calm. Her movements were composed and elegant.A knee pressed against his stomach. She twisted his arm and slammed him onto the groundThen, she snatched the bottle from his hand and ruthlessly smashed it over his head!More sounds of shattering glass echoed throughout the room. The man with the swollen eye struggled like a dying fish.He rolled his eyes back before passing out.Tyler stood up abruptly, with anger flashing in his eyes. He spoke coldly, "Mrs. Winchester, what's the meaning of this?""There's no particular meaning. I find him annoying, so I hit him," Hannah replied casually.Hannah calmly grabbed a tissue and wiped off the splashed alcohol from her hand

Who wouldn't want to be protected and keep their innocence if possible?It was blissful!Sheila couldn't help but sigh lightly as she met Naomi's worried gaze.If it weren't for Naomi, her future might have been ruined.Sheila shuddered, thinking about the possible consequences.She felt relieved as she looked at Naomi and said sincerely, "Today, I'm really thankful to you. The consequences would have been unimaginable if it weren't for you."Upon receiving such a sincere expression of gratitude, Naomi blushed involuntarily.The usually carefree girl subconsciously revealed a bright smile.As her lips moved, inadvertently drawing a breath of cold air, she chuckled, "Hey, it's nothing. I just did what I had to do. There's a need to thank me."They looked at each other in the dimly lit carriage and couldn't help but smile.The fear lingering from the ordeal seemed to dissipate.On the other side, Hannah turned around a corner and walked to the entrance of the staff break area.

As The Dunes developed to this scale, its visitors were influential and powerful figures.These were readily available connections. The boss of The Dunes, however, remained mysterious. They never showed themselves in public.Even with memories from a previous life and having read many books, Hannah had no idea who the boss of The Dunes really was. Yet, this person had once helped Misty in the novel.Hannah felt repulsed by this mysterious benefactor as she lowered her gaze.Erica's face turned even paler. Her hands and feet grew cold as her eyes welled up with tears. She was acutely aware that, beneath the difference in status, she was like an ant that could be easily crushed. She was not worth anyone's concern."It's fine, Ms. Emerson," Erica said softly. Her long lashes trembled slightly as she tried to suppress the choked-up feeling in her throat. "I didn't do my job well in the first place. It is only natural to get scolded. It's alright … "She tried to pretend to be

"I know you're doing it for my sake, and I appreciate it," Erica said gratefully.Having someone stand behind her and support her made a significant difference. She would have been at a loss on how to escape from Carson without Hannah.It might seem absurd to many. After all, Carson was just a minor supervisor among The Dunes' service staff.However, he held the reins to her internship evaluation in Erica's eyes. He also had the authority to deduct her salary and could decide whether she stayed or left. Without Hannah, she might not have found the courage to resist him."I should be thanking you for guiding me today," Hannah's gaze softened.If it weren't for Erica's subtle hints, she wouldn't have arrived in time. She didn't know what would have happened to Naomi and Sheila if she hadn't.Sincerely, Hannah expressed, "If it weren't for you, those kids might not have known what terrible things were about to happen."A hint of envy unconsciously emerged for the "kids" mention
