"Darling..."

"Sweetheart, you need to take your medicine," Ashton urged.

"Go away," Hannah rasped.

"I'll go, but you must take your medicine first."

Hannah moaned softly, then slowly sat up and turned to face him. They faced each other, and Ashton held a pill to her lips while his other hand had a glass of water.

Hannah's hands shook as she took the glass from Ashton. After swallowing the pill, she lay back down.

"Get out," she ordered.

"But, Hannah..."

Hannah's eyes filled with tears. "I don't want to talk to you. My head hurts."

"I know. I won't bother you. I just want to stay until you fall asleep."

"Oh... whatever," Hannah grumbled in frustration.

Ignoring Ashton, she closed her eyes. The silence in the room was heavy; Hannah could hear nothing but her own breathing. Even Ash

    When Hannah returned to the Harrison family estate after so long, she felt like she was on a roller coaster. After getting out, she stood silently by the car. Ashton quickly walked over and held her hand. With a short nod from Ashton, Hannah followed him, and the two entered the large house.Edward greeted them at the door, but Hannah couldn’t contain her emotions.“Edward,” Hannah said, holding out her hand. “It’s good to see you.”Edward took her hand warmly. “Mrs. Hannah, it is good to see you too. And congratulations.”“Thank you.”Edward shifted his gaze to Ashton and nodded politely. Ashton, who had no memory of Edward, simply returned the gesture. As Alden’s right-hand man, Edward knew Ashton only from childhood.“Mr. Alden is waiting in the garden, ma’am,” Edward said.Edward led Hannah and Ashton into the garden. Memories of the past flooded H

  • Marrying the Chairman in the Wheelchair   192. Wedding Night

    When the reception ended at eight in the evening, Hannah and Ashton went to the hotel Victoria had booked for them. It was one of her many gifts, though Hannah found it undeniably tacky. But Victoria didn’t want anything to interfere with their first night together.As soon as the door to the room opened, Hannah was in awe of the luxurious interior. This one still amazes her despite spending the last few years in and out of fancy hotels.“Victoria really went all out on this one,” Hannah murmured.Ashton whispered in Hannah’s ear. “Shall we go inside?”“Absolutely.”Hannah entered the room with Ashton. Ashton immediately wrapped his arms around her from behind as the door clicked shut, knocking her purse to the floor. Ashton began to plant kisses along her neck and shoulders, making her shiver and giggle.“Ashton, can’t you be patient?” Hannah said with a laugh.“

  • Marrying the Chairman in the Wheelchair   191. Vows of Second Chance

    Hannah and Ashton held each other’s hands tightly as they arrived at the church, but hardly any guests left. Most had already departed, leaving only family members waiting with pale and anxious faces.Victoria visibly relaxed when she saw Hannah and Ashton enter the hall. The middle-aged woman hurried over to her son. Ashton gave her a toothy grin.“Mom,” Ashton greeted her.Victoria glared at him angrily. “Have you lost your mind? You left Hannah, and you think it’s okay? I didn’t raise you to be irresponsible, Ashton!”Ashton lowered his head. “I’m sorry, Mom. I just thought Hannah might not be happy with me, so I...”Ashton’s eyes flicked to Alden, who watched them from a distance and was too hesitant to approach. Instead, Alden began to chat with Francesca, avoiding any interruption of Victoria’s scolding session with her younger son.“There’s plenty of t

And it's not me.""I can't compete with my own brother."Hannah's hands shook with rage as she read the messages.Without thinking, she stormed out of the room and rushed into the hall, where an uproar had already broken out. Everyone knew Ashton was missing. Hannah's legs felt weak, her heart heavy with disbelief.How could Ashton call off the wedding at the last minute and hand her over to Alden?"How stupid," Hannah thought bitterly.Alden approached her and locked eyes with her for a moment, frozen by her beauty in the wedding gown. He couldn't stop staring at his ex-wife, who looked more radiant than ever."Did Ashton send yo
