Chapter 1417
Stevenâs voice was deep. It was like an aged wine that had been hidden away for a long time. It was mellow and pleasant to the ear. But for Hannah, every word was like a poison-laced dagger, violent and cruel
Hannah clamped her hands over her ears. She held her head, unwilling to listen any further, âStop it! Steven, I beg you, can you please shut up?â
It was unclear whether they didnât hear her or chose to ignore her. Steven, with his graceful strides, was stepping towards her, saying, âHannah, Iâve told you, donât try to leave me. This marriage will end when I decide itâs over. Itâs never been your call.
âSuperstar Hannah? Ha, without me, you wouldnât even know where to start, let alone achieve what you have today.
âWhat? Say it again? Whose child do you want to have? You want to have my child?
âHannah, how come you still donât understand who you are? Youâre just a substitute, what makes you think youâre qualified to have my child?
âHannah, even if we divorce and I donât want you anymore, you canât be with other men, Iâve left my mark on you, and anyone who dares to touch you, Iâll make him pay.â
As Steven approached step by step, Hannah backed away frantically, âNo, no, noâ¦â
Suddenly, a sharp pain jerked Hannah back to reality, and the man in front of her vanished instantly, leaving only endless pain behind.
Heartache. Physical pain. Both hitting her at the same time.
âIt hurts, it hurts so much.â
âDad, Mom, it hurts so much!â
âDad, Mom, Iâm in pain, please save meâ¦â
She wanted to cry, but no sound came out. She could only yell in her heart over and over again.
âMom, I should have listened to you stayed in our small town teaching. I shouldnât have decided to move to the big city on my own.â
She definitely shouldnât have had the wild idea to become an actress. If she hadnât come to a big city like Harbor City, she would definitely not have met Steven. Without Steven, she wouldnât have been targeted by Daniela, then in a car accident and be in such pain now.
âDad, Mom, it really hurts so much.â
âCan you hear me calling you?â
âAnd Farley, Nelly. IIâ¦â
A voice came to her ear again.
âHannah, Hannah, Hannah!â
âHannah, you have to hang in there, weâre taking you to the hospital right away.â
âHannah, youâll be okay, you definitely will be.â
âHannahâ¦â
Who was calling her? Who was telling her to hang on? Hannah didnât know. Because the voice was too distant that she couldnât hear it clearly
