Chapter 1518
Steven said, “Because of who I am, a lot of people approach me with ulterior motives. So, until I figure out who you really are, I can’t just say yes to you. I’m bringing this up now to let you know that from that moment, you’ve been imprinted deep in my heart.”
People often say it took a lifetime to forget someone, but only a moment to fall in love. Steven never believed in love at first sight, but he fell head over heels for a girl. That was the moment he saw Hannah. Her eyes were bright, like the most beautiful gem in the world. Just one look, and he felt as if he had known her for a very long time.
Hearing this, Hannah was taken aback. She thought he didn’t even remember her. But not only did he remember her, he was also smitten with her.
Steven continued, “Afterwards, I’ve been watching you from the shadows. I knew about your trouble at home and you needed money, so I had Rick approach you.”
With that, all of Hannah’s previous confusion was cleared up. She never understood why a guy like Steven, who could have any woman he wanted, would be interested in an ordinary actress like her.
Turns out, it wasn’t a spur of the moment thing. He had set a trap–for her, and she walked right into it.
Hannah, almost grinding her teeth, asked hard, “So you had Rick test me?“e2
“Hannah, I…” Steven wanted to deny it, but he had to admit that he did have Rick test her. If she could pass Rick’s test, he would help her father with the medical bills, and he would court her like a normal relationship.
But she didn’t pass the test. She took the bait. So, he crushed her dignity under his wealth, damaging her self–esteem beyond repair. He told her their relationship was nothing more than a deal.
She was deeply hurt, and he thought he would be happy. But he wasn’t happy. He was upset too. So, he proposed they play the loving couple, hoping that by doing so, they could gradually improve their marriage. He didn’t realize that this was another deep wound for her.
Hannah looked at the man in front of her. His face was all too familiar, yet suddenly seemed so strange.
Strange because she never truly knew him. At this moment, she realized how terrifying Steven was.
Her eyes welled up with tears, but she laughed, “You tested me, found out that I’m someone who would sell herself for money, and then you humiliated me. Steven, I’ve always known I’m not the best person. You don’t need to remind me now.”
The determination in Hannah’s eyes terrified Steven. He grabbed her hand in desperation, “Hannah, that’s not what I meant.”
Hannah asked, “Then what did you mean? You stepped all over my dignity and pride. Isn’t that what you wanted to see?”
Steven replied, “Hannah, I’m sorry! I know I was wrong, I’ve known it for a long time. But my pride wouldn’t let me admit my mistake to you.” Hannah pulled her hand back, opened the car door, and decisively left the car. She turned around, looked at him coldly, “Steven, I hate you!”Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
