No Substitutes for the Bigshots' Dream Girl Anymore!

In her pursuit of saving enough money to return home, Hannah found herself playing the role of the "first-love" character in a beloved novel. Originally, this character was a typical stand-in supporting actress, taking on various substitutes for the female lead as dictated by the male protagonists, such as donating kidneys or sparing road for the female lead, which she all agreed. Eventually, the original character succumbed to the pressure, turning dark and meeting a tragic demise with a disfigured face on the streets after being killed by the male protagonists. Hannah's task was to follow this grim plotline and achieve the tragic story's intended outcome. However, in the eyes of George River, she was merely a substitute he had enlisted—an entity dependent on him. When his true love returned, he callously abandoned the woman who deeply loved him. Later, he regretted his decision, only to discover that the once-begging woman was now surrounded by various exceptional men. The individuals who had previously used her as a shield—the movie king, the ambitious young actor who climbed over her for his ideal goddess, and the president who regretted his actions upon regaining his memory—all found themselves humbly pleading for her affection: "Hannah, the one I love is you." Confused by the sudden turn of events, Hannah observed her bank account steadily growing and stumbled upon a newfound skill for crafting tragic stories. As the main antagonist who successfully survived until the end of the story, Arnold Simmons was ruthless, dark, and violent. In his eyes, Hannah appeared to be the most naive woman he had ever encountered, her thoughts consumed solely by love. Witnessing her continuous deception by those around her, Arnold eventually reached a breaking point and seized her, declaring, "Stay by my side; let me handle your tasks." [A seemingly fragile flower with an inner strength, Daughter of the Sea, crosses paths with an obsessed, dark, and sinister antagonist who contemplates disrupting the pond of bred fish every day.]

Chapter 26: Delighted Mood

Especially when she gets angry, pouting, puffing her cheeks, like a tiny steamed bun?

Arnold Simmons was intrigued and raised his eyebrows slightly. "What do you mean?"

Hannah: "I can make you happy."

The girl's voice was gentle and clear. She blinked, looking at him with deep meaning.

Arnold Simmons got the wrong idea, couldn't help but cough lightly, pursed his lips. His face expression became softer, his eyes were pitch black, his voice low and hoarse, "Don't talk nonsense."

Hannah frowned, not understanding Arnold Simmons's meaning, "What I mean is, I am so pretty. Mr. Simmons, won't that make you happy?"

Arnold Simmons was silent for a moment; the next second, his tone was colder, "... No."

Hannah looked helpless, "Or I can play some spike fiddle for you, or even some suona if that doesn't work. Which song do you like, sad or happy? I can do anything..."

"No need." Arnold Simmons suddenly interrupted Hannah. Seeing her looking at him in confusion, he could feel a wave of unnamed emotions spreading in his chest. His voice came out a bit hurried, "Your name will be on the list of participants for 'Shining Star Journey 2'."

Hannah was stunned for a moment. Before she could thank him, Arnold Simmons had already left.

For him, nothing in the world is more embarrassing than misunderstanding.

He needed times to adjust.

Just as he was about to leave, the girl's voice came from behind. "Mr. Simmons, beautiful things indeed bring joy to people. You should really consider it."

Arnold Simmons stumbled a bit, luckily, he grabbed the door frame in time and didn't let anyone notice anything unusual.

He left, left the reception directly. Nobody even got a chance to bid him goodbye, especially those who had been waiting for him all night to talk to him.

*

Hannah came alone tonight, without a car, indeed, she doesn't have one. The last time after she left George River's villa gracefully, she didn't take anything with her apart from 2000 yuan.

But tonight, with tiredness overtaking her and not wanting to play the tragic heroine, Hannah chose to leave from the underground parking lot to avoid George River and his angel Tiffany Lynch in the main hall.

However, Hannah didn't expect that someone was already waiting for her.

He was a man in a silver custom suit, even looking at his back gave an air of urgency and inner turmoil.

It wasn't until regular sounds of high heels footsteps came that the man turned around abruptly, his eyes filled with fury.

Hannah was surprised to see George River suddenly appearing in front of her, but before she could react, George River had swiftly stepped forward and grabbed Hannah's wrist tightly.

"Hannah Winter, after leaving me, you can't wait to find your next sugar daddy?"

The man stared fixedly at the woman in front of him. His gaze swept over her exquisite, fair face. Those round eyes still held traces of shock. It seemed as if they were veiled with mist.

But upon closer look, it was only an illusion.

Hannah was somewhat taken aback. "What do you mean?"

George River chuckled coldly, "Hannah Winter, are you still playing innocent?"

"I really don't know what you're talking about!" Hannah frowned, trying to pull away from George's hand. But at the critical moment, she remembered her task and could only remain obediently.

She was irritated on the inside, wishing she could slam this arrogant, childish man's face to the ground.
