Moreover, Taylor could barely move. Avery's back was facing the girls, and she was enveloped in his tight embrace. Wary of her struggles, he tightened his arms around her. Seconds felt like hours as she watched as the translucent liquid made its way toward them, merely inches away from their faces. Just as she was awash in dread, an immense force yanked her away. She staggered, and Avery lost his balance as well. Both of them tumbled to the ground.The liquid came into contact with the ground, emitting a pungent smell. A few drops splattered on Avery's calf. He paled instantly, gritting his teeth. A muffled groan escaped his lips. "And I thought you guys could fight, huh?" Hannah's complexion turned slightly ashen as well. She was worried about Taylor and Avery, so she decided to pick them up. She didn't expect to come across such a scene. God knows how shocked she was when she saw the liquid being splashed at them. Nonetheless, she managed to come to their rescue in the nick

Marie couldn't bear to imagine what would have happened if the sulfuric acid hadn't splashed on the ground but on a person instead.Hannah was right about her coming from an average family. So, how would her family, already struggling with their finances, afford compensation if she had actually harmed a person?The thought of her hardworking parents, who had pinned their hopes on her, made her cry louder. She truly felt as if she had lost her senses to have acted so impulsively.Marie should have known being a keyboard warrior was enough to show support for her idol. She sobbed miserably, shielding her face with her hands as tears blurred her vision.Indeed, she was just an ordinary high school girl. She was completely defenseless under Hannah's control, making retaliation rather meaningless. After Hannah's initial anger had subsided, hitting Marie felt more like bullying the vulnerable than finding any satisfaction in revenge. So, she withdrew her hand expressionlessly."You sa

"What do you mean?" Misty looked up, her eyes burning with anger. "Are you implying that all of this is my fault?"Here it came again. Ever since the trip to the police station last time, she had become even more unpredictable and short-tempered.Ionna felt a bit impatient deep down, but she remained expressionless. "I didn't mean that."Keeping a straight face, she said in a somewhat formal tone, "I'm doing this for your own good. Hannah has a lot of luck and skills. She's not easy to deal with. Unless we can strike her down in one blow, we should remain silent."Ionna paused, rubbing her temples when she felt a headache coming. "Misty, we're already in a precarious situation. The incident of us going to the police station hasn't blown over yet. It's best not to attract too much attention."Every word she said was calculated for Misty's future development. Ionna believed she had thought it through thoroughly.With no news from Connor recently, and the influence of the Emersons n

Darren's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and the palm holding onto her waist tightened as his muscles tensed for a moment.Hannah peered up at him with a smile, her red lips forming a pout, as if inviting him for a kiss. She chuckled and asked, "Have you made up your mind?"Before Darren could answer, the phone that had been set aside rang. It was a call from a strange number. Hannah raised her eyebrow at it and then answered the call."Ms. Emerson, you're quite resourceful!" A voice tinged with fury sounded, the words uttered through clenched teeth in obvious hatred. It was Zachary.Hannah instinctively straightened her back. With a nonchalant smile, she replied, "Mr. Lautner, your abrupt praise truly flatters me.""Ms. Emerson, don't play dumb with me." Zachary was seething with anger, his eyes burning with rage. He had underestimated Hannah, thinking she was just like any other pretty woman with nothing but looks to offer.Unexpectedly, she had managed to quietly take away all t

Although she seemed bold with her words, her cheeks were honestly flushed pink, and her eyes remained tightly shut. Her long lashes trembled with nervousness, casting flickering shadows.Gathering her courage, she leaned in toward where she remembered his mouth was and pressed her lips against it. Instead of the soft warmth she imagined, she felt a slightly rough and hard sensation.Hannah opened her eyes to find Darren's hand blocking her kiss. "Are you rejecting me?"She widened her eyes in disbelief while straightening up, frozen in place.Every time they kissed, she could feel his enjoyment of their intimacy, with each kiss being wholeheartedly devoted. His body always reacted honestly, and besides, he was the one who requested a reward. How dare dared to refuse her noe?Interesting, Hannah thought.Meeting her sharp gaze, Darren cleared his throat and withdrew his hand, saying, "I'll use these two rewards to exchange for a few days of your time. Is that okay?"Exchange for
