Pay back?There was no way that Gregory could pay back the money since he invested everything in the project."Dad! Why are you so pessimistic? You're such a drag!"Nonetheless, Catherine wouldn't listen to him. She frowned, and the displeasure on her face grew as she continued, "Dad, you're too conservative. That's why your business isn't flourishing like the Moores. Why can't you think about the benefits? If the Moores succeed, we'll triumph as well."Nigel wouldn't have come to me in difficult times if he didn't see me as family."Catherine couldn't help but blush when she recalled how warm he was toward her last night. He held her hand as he spoke softly, describing the blueprint of their future. It was finally time for her to break the ice with Nigel, and she would do everything to seize this opportunity. If she helped the Moores out of this, he would finally see the good in her and realize that she loved him more than anything in the world.Her gaze grew intense as sh

Hannah still remembered how lively and stunning Nigel looked when she had just returned to this life. Given his looks, it was easy for him to draw people to him. Nonetheless, his looks and vigor seemed to have vanished after he got married. Not only did he lose a lot of weight, but he even looked somehow miserable when his fringe fell and covered his forehead. Due to the screen and Hannah's position, he had yet to realize she was just next to him. "Cath, are you done with Harold and Fiona?"He tightened his lips, a glimmer of hope evident on his face as he glanced at her with wishful eyes. "You're pregnant, yet you burdened yourself with our family matters. Thank you so much. ""Nigel, I …"Catherine's lips parted, and her eyes opened wide. However, she was suddenly at a loss for words. She could only do so much to stand before him, trying her best to avoid his gaze. Her grip on her handbag tightened. How could she face Nigel, who was so hopeful? How was it possible fo

Hannah almost burst into laughter when she saw their interaction. Everything sounded significantly familiar. However, she was nowhere in Catherine's position as she was the opposite of it now. Thus, the once distressing situation became amusing to her. She had zero interest in meddling with their marriage. "I'm sorry, but despite what Mrs. Moore thinks, I have no intention of becoming friends with you."She smirked as she continued, "I'm not interested in your affairs either, so please don't bring me into this.""You're so proud of yourself, aren't you?" Catherine was extremely irritated. She shot an unhinged glare at Hannah with her bloodshot eyes as she hissed, "Don't you dare take me as a fool! I'm Nigel's wife, and no matter what you do, you'll still be an outsider!""I'm so grateful to you for making me an outsider," Hannah remarked sarcastically as she chuckled. Suddenly, she raised a hand and delivered a blow to Nigel's face. A loud slap was heard. Nigel's f

Darren's voice resembled tiny electric currents brushing against her ear, sending a tingling sensation to her heart. Erica almost squealed. This was too stimulating for her.As she blushed, she glanced up at him with sparkling eyes. She was eager to listen to him speak more, and she wanted to get closer to him. His scent wafting through the air was luring her in, and she was desperate to see his smile again. Her mind was buzzing with thoughts as her body seemed to have a mind on its own. Uncontrollably, she took a step forward and scooted closer to him. However, Darren took a step back. He seemed to be puzzled about his actions as well. He frowned as he glanced down at his feet. He felt like his body moved involuntarily to distance himself from her. Was he unwilling to get closer to her?Clearly, he had always wanted to shrink Hannah to the size of Thumbelina so he could bring her anywhere in his pocket. There was never a time when he wanted to be separated from her. "Han

Hannah's eyes narrowed as they glinted dangerously. With a smirk on her face, she asked mischievously, "So, that means … you were indeed pretending to be drunk earlier, right?"Darren was at a loss for words. A hint of helplessness flashed across his face as he ruffled her hair, chuckling softly. "Is this even the point?"He was drunk. However, he didn't fancy the feeling of losing control, so he always left himself with a minimum amount of consciousness. Though he was drunk, it didn't imply that he was completely unconscious and submissive.This was one of his old habits. No matter what he was doing, he had to make sure that he gained full control over himself. He would never abolish his self-restraint.Aside from seeing what Erica was scheming, he was also thinking of utilizing this opportunity to get intimate with Hannah. When he was exposed, he couldn't help but feel slightly embarrassed. No longer being his calm and composed self, he raised a fist to his mouth and
