Chapter 323: Chapter 323: I Don’t Care
George River continued his previous topic, "Given Arnold Simmons’s personality, if he knew about our relationship, he would surely abandon you without hesitation."
Upon saying this, he paused, gazing at Hannah’s beautiful and vibrant eyes, his words seemed slightly softer, "I was ruthless, but Arnold will be even more so, this man - he’s heartless."
He sounded quite earnest.
He just wanted to tell Hannah that he wasn’t a good person, but Arnold was even worse, he wasn’t someone she could control.
The black veil of her dress sprawled around Hannah’s feet, and a mere gentle tilt of her head revealed her perfect shoulder and neck line, like a noble and elegant swan. Her skin seemed to glow under the light.
This sight caught George’s eye, he forced himself to look away, no longer viewing, while ignoring the flutter in his heart.
It’s just that the beautiful scene was etched into his mind, and he couldn’t forget.
The next second, he heard the soft sound of the girl’s voice, accompanied by a faint sigh, "So George, you also know how heartless you were in the past."
She called him "George" again.
This time, he didn’t find it annoying, only a long-lost familiarity and sighs.
He looked at her, lifting his gaze to the girl’s delicate eyebrows and eyes.
Hannah’s red lips faintly moved as she said softly, "George, speaking ill of elders behind their back isn’t a good habit."
She covered her mouth and chuckled softly. Her bright eyes sparkled like a clear spring, but it was the touch of rouge at the corner of her eyes that made her more bewitching.
It seemed that when Arnold wasn’t by the beauty’s side, everyone started to be presumptuous, many people cast gaze at her, unwilling to look away for a long time.
George’s face darkened, and he furrowed his eyebrows, "Arnold is not a good. If you want... I can introduce you to someone, maybe it’s not a rich and noble man, but at least someone with good character, so that you can live a good life, and not..."
"Mr. River." Hannah coldly interrupted George’s words, unknowingly beginning to fiddle with the silver lighter she took from Arnold’s pocket.
The flickering flame illuminated her stunning face, revealing a trace of Arnold’s presence.
Hannah looked at the man in front of her. "Mr. River, there is one thing I have learned, that is, you cannot expect others to be your haven. People always change, so the person you want to introduce to me, you better keep that for yourself."
George frowned, "Hannah, I’m serious, you don’t know what Arnold has done. He’s insane, he can even harm his own family..."
"I don’t care." Hannah interrupted him before he could finish.
His words choked in his throat, making him feel uncomfortable. He looked at Hannah, his eyes complex.
He even thought, perhaps it was because of his own ruthlessness towards Hannah in the past that she now did not care, but she shouldn’t have involved Arnold.
Seeing the once timid and soft girl transform into what she was now, George felt a strange sense of suffocation, and even some... regret.
He gave his head a shake, unable to continue thinking.
Hannah continued, "As long as two people are happy together, that’s good enough. As for the future - who cares?"
Having said that, she suddenly leaned towards George.
The two were already sitting face to face, and not too far apart. With this lean, the distance between them was instantly shortened.
