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 405: Unable to Go

Hannah rolled over in bed, her neatly arranged hair scattering messily across the white pillow. Switching hands with her phone she said, "I'm sorry, I forgot."

Her apology was delivered in an airy, detached tone, much like a polite exchange between strangers.

Out of basic courtesy, it came off as aloof and indifferent.

Leaning on the sink, the cold marble paralleled Louis's current feelings. His intentions of confronting Tiffany were forgotten, all his attention focused on Hannah.

He managed a smile, and gazed unblinkingly at his reflection in the mirror, "Sister, could you come to visit me today?"

Hannah replied, "I can't, the show crew doesn't allow us to leave."

That was a lie.

She was clearly shooting an advertisement.

Louis gripped his fists tight, his voice suddenly soft and slow, laced with barely detectable pleading, "Really, you can't?"

"I can't—" Hannah replied without a thought.
