Hannah was still human, after all. She wasn't divine. Though she was adept in fighting with her improved agility and strength after her rebirth, it simply wasn't possible for her to fall to the fourth floor without suffering from any injuries. She did manage to reduce her momentum while she fell, but the most she could do was to make sure she wouldn't die or become severely crippled. It couldn't be helped if she broke her leg. However, the consequences didn't seem to faze her at all. The smile on her face was dazzling. "For goodness sake, Hannah," Darren gasped in her earpiece. She could still hear him catching his breath. In the next instant, she fell into a warm and firm embrace. A familiar pinewood scent wafted through her nose. Darren's attractive voice echoed in the earpiece and beside her, his chest vibrating as he spoke. His voice was to die for. "I've received your parcel. Is the fragile item satisfied now?""Darren," she called, her eyes fluttering open. She was

Zachary was caught off guard by Darren. It was tough to fathom his thoughts, though he was around Saige's age. They were both in their twenties, yet Saige was only capable of getting in trouble and messing with women. On the contrary, Darren held himself with poise as he drove Zachary into a corner. He began to wonder whether he'd been too soft on Saige. His thoughts wandered despite his current predicament. Finally coming back to his senses, he forced a dry chuckle. Feeling uneasy, he inquired, "Then… what are your thoughts, Mr. Winchester?""We're always easy to reason with, Mr. Lautner. Of course, we'll compensate you."Darren dropped his gaze, and continued matter-of-factly, "How about this? We'll pay for all medical expenses for everyone's injuries, and we'll also offer a thousand dollars to each of you as compensation. As for the damaged assets at your manor, please enlighten me on whether you'd prefer compensation or having them fixed."He spoke confidently, looking lik

Hannah's heart skipped a beat. It seemed like Darren was genuinely angry. Usually, she didn't even have to wheedle him into forgiving her. He would surrender whenever she softened her tone.Even though he wasn't blaming her, he seemed distant now. She was certain that things would take a worse turn if she allowed him to scrutinize her injuries. "No." She put her hand behind her, shaking her head vigorously. She was determined to not let him see her injuries. They weren't severe, after all. She'd only gotten a few scratches on her arm from sliding down the wall, and she'd barely bled.The most severe injuries she suffered were the two cuts she got from the mounting bracket of the air conditioner's outdoor unit. However, the cuts weren't that deep. She bet the injuries she got from falling off a bike would be more severe than her current wounds. Though she was unfazed, she didn't dare to show how unbothered she was. She turned sideways, resting her forehead against Darren's s

"Then, I'll help you to get rid of your boredom," Darren said, chuckling as he leaned down on Hannah.His astringent pine scent engulfed her in a whiff, sending her into a flurry of ethereal dreams. The car partition blocked the driver's view, and they seemed to be more aware of each other's presence in this narrow space.Their lips collided in a fiery embrace, setting the air around them ablaze with an unmistakable hint of sexual tension. When she finally got out of the car, her slightly swollen lips became worse. It stood out like a sore thumb. Her lipstick had disappeared completely, revealing the natural color of her lips. Hearing the car engine, Rory came running at them. He glanced up at her and widened his eyes in surprise. "Hannah, your lips are swollen! Did a bee sting you?"A few days ago, his finger was stung by a bee when he was playing in the garden with Molly. His finger became swollen, and it hurt so badly that he cried. Thus, he thought her swollen lips ind

Taylor was trending at the moment. The reposts and comments of her posts were increasing at an astonishing speed. She released a statement narrating the details regarding Saige's persistent pursuit, and how he had decided to hire someone to commit murder, framing her afterward when he had failed to court her. She also added a description of Zachary's attempt to rescue Saige.Without any attempts to spice things up or to gain sympathy, she presented everything clearly. She ended her statement with a line that said, "I have yet to receive any apologies from Mr. Lautner Senior, Mr. Lautner, or Starshine Entertainment at the time of releasing this statement. As a victim, I will not hesitate to press charges on Saige Lautner. I do not need any compensation regarding this issue. Let justice do its work."The netizens were appalled by how outrageous the entire issue was. The fact that Saige decided to frame Taylor because of his failed pursuit was simply horrifying. It was very likely
