Chapter 31 Willow Tree

This was still a new area, and the buildings nearby had yet to be made public. As such, people already living in the building were people of a certain status.For instance, only people such as Winnie, who were world-renowned, could get early access to the building.The two old people studied Hannah meticulously, and Hannah did the same to them.The both of them had kind faces and an amiable sense to them. The tranquil presence enveloping them, a quality discernible only to those well-versed in life's trials, stirred memories of Molly within Hannah.Besides, the manner in which they addressed Winnie made it clear that they were much more senior than Winnie.Hannah felt an odd sense of familiarity with them. Her gaze softened before she shook her head. "My name is Hannah Emerson, and I'm Nina's sister-in-law. I'm here to escort her to class.""Hannah Emerson," the short-haired old man mumbled thoughtfully as he cleaned his glasses. Suddenly, he broke into a smile and exclaimed, "

Chapter 32 She Knows

It was a mystery. When she looked at the paintings that the wealthy women were fawning over, she couldn't see their meaning, nor could she say anything about them. However, looking at Maurice's ordinary painting of a garden, she was filled with a swirl of emotions. Maurice's expression grew somber as he listened to her speak. His face, which had been kind, with a hint of a smile, also darkened and made him look quite serious.Hannah wondered if she had offended Maurice with her nonsensical rambling about his painting.Artists usually had all sorts of odd moods. He was probably annoyed by her shallow interpretation of his painting.Now that there was a chance that she had offended both of them, she worriedly wondered if it would be disadvantageous for Nina as well.She silently cursed herself for being so loose-lipped around paintings that she liked. Hannah steeled herself and prepared to apologize to Maurice, but before she could, Maurice pushed a pencil into her hand and sai

Chapter 33 Drop Out

Eventually, the elderly pair yielded to Hannah's request and agreed to teach the children, their expressions marked by a blend of complexity and acquiescence.The three of them then agreed to meet again next weekend with Kaden. After that, Hannah bid her goodbyes to the elderly couple with a satisfied smile and took Nina home.As prominent figures in the art community, both of them were also world-renowned artists and musicians. At that moment, they exchanged looks and shook their heads with a smile."Silly woman," Maurice chided with a smile, "She doesn't know how lucky she is. She's wasting her talent.""As long as she's happy, I don't think she's wasting her talent," Jamie replied calmly. She had taken Hannah's rejection better than Maurice had. "Based on how she understood my music, I can tell she has had a hard life. Now that she can live the life she is leading now, it wouldn't make sense for us to force her," Jamie continued sympathetically."I know. I'm just lamenting th

Chapter 34 Might As Well

The card read, "Starshine Entertainment".It was this small entertainment company that had ruined Taylor's life. Hannah's expression turned colder, and she clutched the card tighter, making the edges of the card cut into her skin."Hannah." Taylor sensed something wasn't right with Hannah and continued meekly, "The company is a bit small, but I've done my research. It's a legitimate company, and my agent told me there would be a contract, so it shouldn't be a scam."In the end, Taylor was still a young woman who naively believed that signing a contract could prevent herself from being taken advantage of."Do you even know the law?" Hannah chided as she knocked Taylor's forehead lightly. Hannah continued, "All you know is there's a contract, but can you tell if the contract is a trap? Can you tell if the contract is beneficial to you or the company? Do you think you know everything about this world now that you're older?""Also, how could you compare yourself to me? Is dropping o

Chapter 35 Distaste

Nina's hands shook from excitement and gratefulness, and her tears also threatened to fall.How could she be so lucky? Everything that has happened in the past few days has been like a dream, and now, even Jamie was willing to tutor her?For her, Hannah ought to have gone through a lot.Nina was a crybaby by nature. She felt her eyes welling up with tears when confronted with such a profound feeling of being loved.Nina tried her best to hold back her tears. Her smile was brilliant as she said, "Thank you, Hannah!""We're a family now." Seeing that Nina was about to cry, Hannah quickly stuffed a piece of honeydew into Nina's mouth. "Learn what you can from them. I have faith in you."The sweetness from the honeydew burst on Nina's tongue, while the sweetness from Hannah's words seeped into Nina's heart as well.Nina nodded aggressively and smiled as she chewed her honeydew.Naomi watched on enviously at her siblings. She was annoyed. For the first time in her life, she felt a

Chapter 36 Rot

Mrs. Tate couldn't help but wonder if she had heard him wrong. She had to admit her hearing wasn't what it used to be now that she was older.Nevertheless, how could she have misheard Andrew, who regularly tended to his green-colored roots and cared for his hair, as if it were his life, saying that he was going for a haircut?His father, William Winchester, hadn't liked Andrew's hair and even refused to give him his allowances for three months. However, even then, Andrew had not relented and kept his green hair.'"I really need to get my ears checked," Mrs. Tate mumbled to herself.She found it hard to believe that she had misheard Andrew's statement about getting a haircut. If she could misinterpret something as unconventional as that, she worried about the potential for mishearing other things that might unintentionally offend others.Anthony shot her an indecipherable look and laid back on the couch. He placed a well-defined hand over his face as he lay down, concealing his e

Chapter 37 Change

A born criminal. Mentally disturbed. Insane. He was someone who would end up in jail in the future for murder.Those were all the things that his birth mother had called him over and over again ever since the day he decided to draw.Hannah didn't answer. Instead, she extended her hand toward him before gently saying, "Pass me the brush."Kaden expression was complex. Nevertheless, he obediently passed Hannah a brush.Hannah casually placed the canvas on an easel and asked, "Do you mind if I add to your artwork?""I don't mind. Go ahead," Kaden replied, fixing his attention on his drawing.Hannah studied the artwork before her once more. Then, without hesitation, she dipped the brush into the paint and drew some wildflowers.Hannah had drawn those wildflowers at the feet of the boy in the cage, making it seem like the flowers depended on the boy to live and vice versa.Hannah then mixed some paint and drew more rays of sunlight on the artwork. The golden rays of light that

Chapter 38 Wail

The lights of the studio suddenly came on. The sudden brightness stunned Hannah for a second, and she chuckled awkwardly at all the eyes on her. "Why is everyone here?"With Nina crying behind her, it seemed as if she had bullied the poor girl to tears. Hannah had no idea how to explain herself."I'm … I'm here to tell you that dinner is ready," Naomi stammered, clearly stunned by the situation."We heard someone crying …" Avery swallowed audibly before continuing, "We were afraid that something had happened, so we came upstairs with Mr. Winchester."Darren had taken the lift upstairs and was the last to arrive at the scene. His gaze was dark, and his expression was unreadable as he steered the wheelchair toward Hannah.Did he really misunderstand the situation and think she bullied his sister?Seeing his darkened expression, Hannah hurriedly tried to explain herself. "I don't know what happened either. I just …""Mr. Winchester," Flynn said resolutely as he stood between them

Chapter 39 Laughter

"Not at all. This way, please," Darren nodded as he replied mildly.Though their interaction seemed friendly, Hannah couldn't shake the feeling that something was off.Hannah was about to say something, but before she could, Naomi and Taylor had enthusiastically grabbed onto her arms and began to chatter excitedly as they led her downstairs. As such, Hannah had no choice but to be escorted downstairs by the both of them.Now that it was only the both of them, Flynn dropped his smile as he asked lowly, "Mr. Winchester, how's your leg?""It's nothing for you to worry about. The treatment is going well," Darren replied with a courteous smile. "Mr. Cameron, are you still studying?""My grades aren't as good as Hannah's. I'm no longer studying."The elevator doors opened. Flynn pushed Darren's wheelchair in. They both watched as the elevator doors shut once more, but none of them made a move to press the button that would bring them downstairs. "I'm also not as lucky as Mr. Winche

Chapter 40 A New Hairstyle

Taylor was an extrovert. It didn't take long before she became friends with the younger Winchesters. Even when it was time for them to leave, she still had her arm looped around Nina and Naomi. She was whispering to both of them.Flynn stood further away from the rest of them and stared at the crescent moon in the night sky, deep in thought.Avery looked at Flynn and paused for a while before calling out lightly, "Hannah …"Hannah hummed in acknowledgment and raised her head to look at him. Avery was only 17 years old, but he was already very tall.Amongst the four of them, Flynn was the closest to Hannah in age and was often the person she turned to when she needed help. Together, they kept a close eye on the two younger children.Taylor was energetic and clingy. She was the perfect definition of a younger sister.Avery, on the other hand, was much quieter. Oftentimes, he would be smiling silently on the sidelines, and sometimes he just seemed emotionally unavailable.However
