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 751: Not Very Clear-headed

"Returning to Prideful?" Hannah asked in a soft voice, "But I do not like to feel beneath anyone."

George River furrowed his brows, and after a long pause finally spoke, "No one will surpass you."

Hannah looked at him, "Not even Tiffany Lynch?"

An almost negligible struggle flitted through George River's eyes before he nodded in agreement.

"Mr. River is still as ruthless." Hannah cast her gaze away, appearing somewhat bored. She stood up, "The terms are rather appealing, a pity someone has beaten you to it."

George River's expression abruptly changed; he asked angrily, "Who else has proposed such things to you?"

The circle they were in was always filled with chaos. Wealthy men like George River, few of them had true self-restraint. Arnold Simmons might be considered an exception.

Most tended to keep several paramours for pleasure and for the bragging rights it afforded them.
