Chapter 526: Chapter 526: Caring so much for you
Hannah paused for two seconds, then pushed the person in front of her away, "Are you sick?"
Hayes Edwards toppled onto the sofa, clutching his head and crying out, "Ouch".
Hannah didn’t spare him a glance, instead picking up a mirror to examine her own face.
Well, her acne had almost cleared up. Jack Stewart’s medicine really worked.
After complaining for a while without getting any attention from Hannah, who was preoccupied with her mirror, Hayes huffed, "I care so much about you, and this is how you treat me? Earlier, those girls downstairs wanted me to give them a second look, but I wouldn’t!"
Hannah touched her small face, which was bare of makeup and as smooth as silk.
She responded lazily, "Then go be with someone else."
"Hannah Winter!" Hayes leapt up from the sofa and ran his hands through his hair haphazardly, "I’m just worried that you’ll get so upset you’ll commit suicide."
After he finished speaking, he lowered his head, looking as pitiful as a large pet that had been abandoned and was still foolishly waiting in the same spot.
Hannah finally gave him a look, "You’re seriously not well."
Carrying on with such nonsense every day.
She’s way too beautiful to let the whole world see her, how could she do such a thing?
What a waste of time.
This time, Hayes managed to keep his cool. Perhaps because they were in the same boat, he was unusually mild-mannered, "Hannah Winter, seriously, we’ve known each other for a while now. This time, we’re even more in the same boat. I understand how you feel. You’re worse off than me. At most, I’ve been eclipsed. You, on the other hand, have had your position completely replaced."
Having one’s achievements stolen and used for someone else’s glory, even if everyone can see it, there’s still no way to clear one’s name.
It must feel even worse than his situation.
So, he was worried that Hannah might...
Hannah, holding the mirror, could never get bored of staring at her own face, "Did you come here just to vent?"
"What do you mean by ’vent’?" Hayes became increasingly agitated, "I’m just worried about you."
Hannah nodded, "Alright, I’ve got it. You can leave now."
Hayes was taken aback, his feelings hurt. He angrily stood up to leave, but ended up sitting right back down after he touched the doorknob.
Hannah could clearly see Hayes’ series of actions from her mirror, "You’re not leaving?"
Hayes lowered his head, "The crowd outside is too large. I can’t include myself."
Hannah nodded, "Then you can stay. But you’re on your own for dinner."
After speaking, she hummed a tune and went to look for the acne cream that Jack had left behind.
Maybe one more application and it’s okay?
Indeed, she must not neglect this precious little face of hers.
Frozen on the couch, Hayes sat there watching Hannah flit about, tending to her face, expressing her love for it every minute.
He was at a loss for words, "Hannah Winter, aren’t you really sad? Not even a little?"
Hannah, busy applying ointment, took a moment to reply, "Yeah, I’m heartbroken."
Hayes’ eyes lit up, ready to recite some lines from the ’100 Essential Sentences for Comforting Girls’ that he had copied from the Internet overnight. But then he heard Hannah continue.
"Heartbroken that you’re wasting such a handsome face and that your head must’ve been struck by a door."
Hayes froze for a moment, then hurriedly squatted beside Hannah, "Were you just complimenting me on how handsome my face is?"
Right? Right?
He knew that he was incredibly good-looking, unmatched in charm and style!
Hannah stopped applying the ointment and looked down at the person beside her.
