Chapter 1383
After listening to Hannah, Cornelia saw a glimpse of her past self. Back then, she thought Jeremy had betrayed their
marriage, but deep down, she still hoped it was all a lie. “Hannah, do you still love Steven?”
Hannah chuckled, “I loved him once, but not anymore.”
However, Cornelia felt that that might not be the case.
Hannah asked her, “Nelly, why are you looking at me like that? Don’t you believe me?”
Cornelia reached out and took Hannah’s hand, “Hannah, I hope you can live as freely as you want.”
Hannah responded, “Thanks for the good wishes. I’ll strive to live the way I want.”
Cornelia reminded her, “Don’t forget, besides friends like me and Rosie, you also have your family. We’re all here
for you.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHannah laughed and asked, “Nelly, why are you suddenly so emotional?”
Because Cornelia didn’t want to see another Skyler, and she didn’t want Skyler’s tragedy to happen to Hannah.
“Hannah, you must take good care of yourself.”
Hannah responded, “Don’t look at me like that. I’ll be honest with you.”
Cornelia knew that some things were easy to say to others, but hard to deal with when it came to oneself.
Nevertheless, she had to say, “I don’t want to hear about your past. I want you to face it bravely. Only then can you
start a new life.”
Hannah started to remember, “Steven was not only good-looking, but also rich and well-built. Few young girls could
resist such a man, and I was one of them. At that time, I really liked him a lot, so much so that I even gave up my
dignity for him. But later, when I realized where I stood in his heart, I dared not love him anymore.”
It wasn’t that she didn’t love him, but that she dared not love him anymore. There was a big difference between the
two.
After all these years, Hannah still clearly remembered the first time she met Steven. That day, the weather in
Harbor City was just like today. The sky was gray and it was drizzling; it was particularly cold.
On the day she joined the crew, the role she had fought for was taken away by an actress the financiers wanted to
promote. During that time, her father was seriously ill and she needed money for his treatment. With no roles to
play, she had to work as a stand-in actress.
Because she had a good figure, many actresses in the film city liked to use her as a stand-in, and she was filming
stand-in roles non-stop.
Steven noticed her because of a water scene. The female lead’s expression after being saved by the male lead
from falling into the water didn’t achieve the desired effect according to the director. As her stand-in, she had to
repeatedly go into the water.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was already cold and raining that day. After falling into the water multiple times, she was already so cold her lips
turned white and she was shivering. But for the sake of money and the chance to get better roles in the future, she
didn’t say anything and just kept repeating the water scenes according to the director’s instructions.
As she kept falling into the water, she felt like someone was silently watching her. But when she lifted her head to
look, she saw nothing.
By the time she finished filming the water scenes, night had already fallen. She dragged her stiff legs and icy body
towards the bathroom, hoping to warm herself up quickly with hot water. However, just before she reached the
bathroom, a man with thick black-framed glasses blocked her way. “You’re Hannah, right?”
She nodded, asking him, “And you are?”
The man in the black-framed glasses asked, “Do you want to be the lead actress? Do you want someone else to
dive into the water for you?”
Hell yeah! Which actor wouldn’t want to be the lead?
