Chapter 254: Chapter 254: Leave the Wound
May Hoffman lowered her head, her voice laced with a cold edge, "I heard everything you said in the practice room."
Hannah nodded, a smile curling up the corners of her lips, "Well, have my words enlightened you?"
May lifted her head, forcing a derisive smile, "Hannah Winter, have you ever thought about what would happen if you don’t make it in the end?"
People like Hannah Winter, with no guardian angel or backing, even if they are currently popular, are merely figures used by the program crew to hype their show.
Sacrificial lambs to the script.
Just there to take the bullet for the true royalties.
When you bear all the blame, those royal members will smoothly make their debut, and you will be nothing more than a discard piece."
Hannah leaned against the wall, eyes fixed on the ceiling light that was somewhat glaring, "I never thought about it because there is no such possibility."
When she said this, though with an air of nonchalance, the pride and confidence between her brows and eyes were genuine.
She truly believed so.
May found it amusing, naturally she didn’t believe such ridiculous words from Hannah, "Hannah Winter, you are just popular now because someone is using you as a shield. When they are done with you, you will surely be abandoned. Without any backing, you won’t go far."
She expected to see a panicked Hannah Winter, but that did not happen.
A smile appeared on Hannah’s lips, "Is that so? But until the last moment, the ending is unknown."
May did not understand why Hannah remained so calm even after knowing all this.
Does she truly not care?
Or is she just overly confident?
Why, even though they were both from such bleak backgrounds, she herself was stuck in a quagmire yet Hannah could still stand clean on the side?
May was not just unwilling to accept this outcome, she was even more irked towards Hannah after feeling psychologically unbalanced.
She knew Tiffany Lynch was targeting Hannah, she also heard from others that Tiffany’s Lord Sponsor was one of the investors of the program.
Hannah Winter would never be able to compete with Tiffany Lynch.
Now she might be arrogant, but there will be a day when she will be trampled upon.
Even though she was not the one taking action, just the thought of that scene brought her tremendous pleasure.
Why should she be the only one in such a pitiful and miserable state?
Even if they were to both perish, she would ensure that Hannah accompanied her in death!

As Lucy Taylor heard the noise from the doorway, she quickly closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.
The dormitory door cracked open, and the hallway light fell right beside the bed.
Then it was closed again.
Hannah first placed the novel she held in her arms onto the bed, then slowly climbed into bed.
Her actions were very quiet, hardly making any sound.
Her knees were somewhat uncomfortable, but it was not intolerable.
As Hannah rubbed her knee, she couldn’t help but murmur, "I’ll keep this wound for Lord Sponsor when I get out. Allow him to nurse me back to health, and then..."
Her eyes held a mischievous twinkle. In the darkness of the night, she seemed like a spirit about to go on a hunt, her lips stained a bright red and her hair cascading down like a waterfall with her every movement.
But it was a pity no one saw.
Lucy Taylor was tossing and turning in bed, unable to sleep.
Subtle sounds of flipping pages could be heard in the quiet dormitory.
Hannah was not sleeping yet.
She was under the blanket, using a flashlight to read her domineering boss novel.
Beautifeye was sitting beside Hannah docilely, her wide round eyes focused on the book without moving.
While in her head, she was also engaging in conversation with Hannah.
