Semua Bab She's Moved on With Someone New: Bab 151 - Bab 160

Chelsey finally sensed that something was off with Alanna's mood. "What's wrong? Did something happen? Did that jerk Hades bully you again?" Alanna's nose tingled sharply. She wanted to confide in Chelsey but found the disgraceful nature of her feelings hard to voice. Ultimately, she simply said, "It's nothing. It's just a bit of a cold."Chelsey clicked her tongue. "It's getting colder these days. Dress warmly. You haven't fully recovered yet. You need to take good care of yourself." "Okay." They chatted a bit more before hanging up.The doorbell rang again. Alanna opened the door and found Henry standing outside with a bag and a box in hand. "Mr. Florentine asked me to prepare these clothes and jewelry for you. He says you're starting work tomorrow." Alanna glanced at them, took them, and set them aside casually. "Thank you for this."Henry seemed hesitant. Alanna asked, "Is there something else?" After a moment, he spoke up. "Ms. Jacinto, the person currently in your

Alanna woke up in the middle of the night. She felt thirsty. Her temples throbbed with pain, and her throat was parched. She instinctively reached for the space beside her, but Hades wasn't there. She remembered him coming back. He probably left again.Alanna chuckled bitterly. She got out of bed and went to get some water. However, she saw Hades on the balcony. His figure was impressive, but he seemed lonely in the night. He was in a bad mood. Alanna could tell at a glance.She didn't interfere or ask. The only person who could affect his mood like this was probably Melanie. Alanna went into the kitchen alone, poured herself a glass of water, and drank it. Then, she returned to the bedroom.As she was about to fall asleep, the bedroom door opened. Hades stood at the doorway. Alanna couldn't see his expression, but she could smell the strong scent of smoke on him. "Are you awake?" Hades' voice was deep and slightly menacing.Alanna's lips twitched slightly. "Yes, Mr. Florenti

Alanna stood at the door of Hades' office. She took a deep breath and then knocked on the door. "Come in." Hades' voice came from inside. Alanna pushed the door open and saw him sitting leisurely behind his desk."Mr. Florentine, did you want to see me?" Hades chuckled lightly. "Ms. Jacinto, you really do know how to cause trouble."Alanna scoffed, "Aren't you the one who's causing me trouble? You knew that I was coming back today. Why didn't you have HR notify Ms. Lind?""So, you decided to handle it this way?" Alanna asked him, "What did you expect me to do?"Hades raised an eyebrow. "Couldn't you have come to me?""Would you have helped me if I did?" Alanna still remembered how Hades responded when she sought his help while Melanie was making things difficult. "Find someone else if you can't handle it," was his response. He was unwilling to help her. As long as it involved Melanie, Alanna always had to step aside. She didn't want to humiliate herself again. She woul

"I really didn't mean to do it. You won't blame me, right?" As the people around began to look over, the smile on Bernice's face disappeared completely. It was replaced by a pitiful look.Alanna scoffed inwardly. She realized Bernice and Melanie were truly cousins based on their acting skills. She observed Bernice's slightly reddened eyes. Then, in front of everyone, Alanna picked up a bowl of freshly served noodles and splashed it onto Bernice. "Sorry, I didn't mean to do it either. I hope you won't blame me for that!"Bernice was drenched in the wet noodles. She screamed furiously. "You bitch! How dare you!" "You dared, so why wouldn't I?" Alanna retorted, then dropped the bowl and walked toward the sink.Bernice was seething with rage and started hurling insults. "You homewrecker! Alanna, you're just a mistress. Everyone, take a good look. This is your so-called aloof Ms. Jacinto! She's shamelessly becoming someone else's mistress!"Alanna clenched her fists tightly. She h

Alanna's voice was soft and pleading. Something stirred in Hades' heart. He looked up at Alanna and unconsciously pinched her cheek. "How would you like me to help?""Tell everyone I'm not a mistress. Could you clarify that for me, please?" She had been pretending not to care all day. She couldn't hold it any longer. She had done nothing wrong, so she felt it wasn't right for her to be slandered like this. The feeling of being pointed at and whispered about was too uncomfortable. When she saw how gently Hades was applying medicine for her, Alanna's stance finally softened. If anyone could clear her name from these rumors, she knew it would be Hades.However, Hades paused and asked Alanna, "Do you think that's appropriate, Ms. Jacinto?" His words snapped Alanna back to reality. She instantly sobered up. She did feel that it wasn't appropriate. She wondered what position or standing Hades had to clarify things for her. She realized that if he did clarify, it would be an indirect
