All Chapters of Love for Rent: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Hanna entered the house to talk to her parents and was startled by two small children running around inside.Her eyes widened even more when a woman, who looked older than her, emerged from her bedroom. Anger flared within her.Lester immediately approached. "Sis, you weren't here last night, so we stayed in your room."Hanna couldn't hide her irritation. "Lester, you got a woman pregnant who already has two kids? What is this, buy one, take three?""Lester, we'll leave with the kids. It seems your sister doesn't accept us. Just remember, if something bad happens to me or your child, it will be on your conscience."Hanna noticed that the woman's words alarmed Lester."Sis, you're a woman too. I thought you'd understand me. I want to take responsibility for Marie," Lester pleaded."Lester, are you sure the child she's carrying is yours?" Hanna asked, growing increasingly annoyed. It seemed like Marie Duval was just manipulating Lester.Marie suddenly burst into tears. "How dare

"Yes, I'm a cleaner here. How have you been?" Hanna asked."I'm good. I'm moving back to the Philian for good," Dylan replied."That's great. Nothing beats being in our own country.""Have you and your boyfriend been together long? Lyn told me you didn't have a boyfriend just two weeks ago. I was surprised when you introduced him as your boyfriend," Dylan remarked."He's not my boyfriend. He's the CEO of Mythical Marketing Solutions. We were together because he had some work for me. He was just joking around," Hanna clarified.Dylan's expression brightened."Oh, nice. I haven't spoken to the CEO of this building under construction. I talked to his secretary, Terry, earlier," Dylan said.They chatted a bit more while Hanna cleaned his office.***With a smile on her face, Hanna returned to the cleaners' quarters. Dylan had asked for her phone number and promised to call so they could continue their conversation."Hanna, Mr. Miller wants to see you," Mila said.The room buzzed

They laughed together, and Rosa introduced them. "This is my grandson, Ethan, and his girlfriend, Hanna Smith."Francisco shook their hands warmly. "What a beautiful young lady. Ethan, don't let her go. Marry her and have lots of kids to keep the family line going."They laughed at Francisco's joke.Ethan left Francisco to chat with Rosa and invited Hanna to dance. "Shall we dance? Just to pass the time and show Grandma that we're sweet on each other.""Mr. Miller, I don't know how to dance," she whispered in his ear.Besides, the music was sweet, and she wasn't eager to be close to Ethan's body again."Don't worry, I'll teach you," he said, pulling her onto the dance floor.Hanna glanced around. All she had to do was drape her arms around his neck, which she did. She felt his hand settle on her waist.Unfortunately, she was clumsy with her feet and kept stepping on his toes."Just follow my lead. Relax. Your body is too stiff," he said.The dance steps were simple.What she

"I have a boyfriend now. His name is Dylan. He's an engineer at our building site," Hanna revealed.The room buzzed with whispers.Hanna was certain the news would spread quickly, putting an end to the rumors about her and Ethan.***It was time to go home, and Hanna was exhausted from work. They had rearranged a lot of equipment.Hanna glanced at her phone and noticed numerous missed calls from an unknown number, along with several text messages.She opened them and discovered that Lester was in jail—he had been arrested for shoplifting and was asking for help at the precinct.Hanna suddenly felt a surge of stress. She hurried out of the building and almost collided with Dylan.She grabbed his arm, nearly losing her balance in her rush."Oh, what's wrong?" he asked."My brother, Lester, is at the precinct. I need to go there now," she replied."Let's go. I'll come with you. The car's in the parking lot." He handed his report to a colleague and instructed him to give it to T

Hanna began mopping the floor, acutely aware of the weight of all the eyes on her every move.Ethan was incredibly annoying. Why did he have to hold her hand in front of everyone?***Mila approached Hanna during lunch. "Mr. Miller wants to see you in his office."Hanna nodded and decided to visit the bathroom first. She let her hair down, applied some powder, and added a thin layer of lipstick after brushing her teeth. Then, she took the elevator up—she was used to it by now.What could Ethan want to discuss?She found him sitting on the sofa."What can I do for you, Mr. Miller?" she asked, trying to sound cheerful."Drop the 'Mr. Miller' and stop being so formal. We're going to be married. Get used to calling me 'Ethan' or 'sweetheart'. Anyway, I have something for you," he said.He placed a small box on the table. "My gift for your birthday tomorrow."Hanna smiled, pleased that he remembered. She opened the box to reveal a ring with a large stone."A diamond ring for my w
