Chapter 06: The Icy Beauty

A bit baffled, Hannah Snow saw the flashy golden-haired playboy Charles Smith approaching her with a devastatingly charming smile, revealing his dazzling white teeth. He extended his hand to greet her, "Hey, my lovely Snow! You look stunning today!"

Goosebumps covered Hannah's entire body, and she resisted the urge to shudder. She steadied herself and skillfully avoided Charles' flirtatious embrace, trying to hold back the nausea caused by his overpowering cologne.

Trying to maintain her composure, she squinted her eyes and looked at the beaming playboy, "Mr. CEO, are you...?"

Charles checked his watch, "Ah! I'm half an hour late today, right? I'm sorry! I promise I'll be punctual from tomorrow onwards!"

With a mix of surprise and disbelief, Hannah pinched her blushing face that hadn't fully recovered from the shock. She couldn't help but think, "This guy's skin is actually quite good!"

Indeed, he was a disciple of the renowned Mistress of Emei Sect, with such confidence in his appearance!

But no one seemed interested in marrying him!

As she watched him swagger into the office with his perfectly styled golden hair, it finally dawned on her. The playboy was dressed in a formal suit today! And to her even greater surprise, he dared to make a move on her!

Goodness! Could someone please tell her what was going on?

Was their womanizing CEO in an exceptionally good mood or an exceptionally bad one?

After knowing him for so many years, he had never said a kind word to her. But today, he...

These two people were actually playing English-style Go?

OMG! Fortunately, Hannah quickly masked her astonishment with her perfect image. She gracefully approached the elegant figure sitting on the ice and offered her a cup of coffee, "Miss Lillian, I don't know what coffee flavor you prefer, but I hope you'll like it."

Then she walked towards Charles, who was smiling at her. [Why are you acting so abnormal?] She silently conveyed her doubt through her eyes.

Charles raised an eyebrow, [Isn't it a good thing that I've changed my ways?]

Hannah rolled her eyes. Who would believe that? His appearance right now was so righteous, without any hint of his usual playboy charm. He was really good at acting!

Taking another discreet glance, she noticed that Miss Lillian showed no signs of being infatuated or enamored with Charles. She couldn't help but be amazed. This heiress with such an excellent upbringing was truly different. If it weren't for her excellent acting skills and pretending to have no interest in Charles, Hannah might have really idolized her.

She hoped that Miss Lillian would be the one to break the playboy's heart! She couldn't wait to go out and gossip with her girlfriends about it!

Miss Lillian smiled confidently, elegantly sipping her coffee, and said to Charles, "You lost again!"

Charles didn't mind as he gazed at the charming lady. Did she really not like him?

There had never been a woman who could resist his charm, except for one woman who was not considered a woman in his eyes—Hannah Snow.

But with Miss Lillian, he felt an overwhelming desire to conquer. If he couldn't win her over, it would be a huge blow to his reputation!

"Wait and see!" he thought to himself.
