Chapter 1: The heartbreak
Hannah never felt that such a sensational scene would happen to her. Her sweetheart, Jake, whom she had been dating for a long time actually got involved with her half-sister.
Today is the day when her beau, whom she has been waiting for four years is proposing to her half-sister.
The proposal ceremony was luxurious and romantic. The firecrackers lit up half of the sky splendidly, and the downpour of roses tumbled from the sky. The man half-knelled on the ground and raised the ring in his hands, looking affectionately, and standing in front of Victoria.
“Victoria, I love you. Marry me.”
When the voice fell, deafening commendation rang out around him, “Marry him! Marry him!”
Victoria looked at Jake who was half-kneeling in front of her excitedly, covering his mouth with emotion, and tears raining down.
If the hero and heroine were not his boyfriend and sister, I am afraid that even she would be moved and cry.
But now Hannah just looked at them from a distance in the corner, her body froze in place, her eyes widened in disbelief!
Step by step, she approached. She must be wrong, isn’t Jake in the United States, how could he appear here?
“Jake?”
“Girl…Hannah?”
Seeing her, Jake stood up subconsciously. There was at that point a touch of unnoticeable frenzy in his eyes, but since of the present event, he halted his drive to stroll over once more, "You, what are you doing here? This?"
He really asked her for what good reason she showed up here, how amusing!
"Jake, don't you have anything to disclose to me?"
He is her beau, for what reason would he propose to another lady here? “Sister, why are you here? Are you here to bless me?”
Victoria always looks innocent, with a simple smile, happy and sweet on his tiptoes and kissed Jake’s side face, with happy tears still hanging in the corners of his eyes, with a defiant look.
“I forgot to introduce him to you. He is the general manager of the Lin Group, and my boyfriend, Jake.”
“Your boyfriend?”
Hannah forced a smile, “Jake, reveal to her whose boyfriend you are.”
They have been in love for four years since high school, and now they actually say that he’s Victoria’s boyfriend, which is ridiculous.
Jake frowned slightly, his expression hesitant.
The encompassing visitors couldn't resist grimacing, acknowledging something wasn't right.
“I…”
Jake looked at Hannah and then at Victoria. She never thought that the two of them were sisters and he had been in love with Hannah for four years. She never told him that she was from the Han Family. For some time, he forgot to react.
He is now proposing to another person, and once he admits his relationship with Hannah, he will slap himself in the face.
Seeing that he didn’t answer, Victoria almost bit his lips, and all the discerning people present could see that Jake and Hannah had an unusual relationship.
In the middle, who the third party is, is unknown!
“Jake, since you like my elder sister, then…then assume that nothing has happened between you and me.” As she stated, Victoria shut her eyes hopelessly, and rolled down enormous tears of grievance, “I’m fine. I don’t blame you, this marriage proposal is considered to have not happened. You don’t need to care about my feelings.”
“Victoria, what silly thing are you talking about? Now I am your fiancé, and I have nothing to do with Hannah. I have long been parted with her, and now I only like you.”
He truly could not bear to hurt such a kind and weak girl. Hannah was stronger than her. He believed that Hannah would understand him.
After hearing what he said, Victoria burst into tears and smiled. She immediately nestled in his arms happily, and looked at the pale Hannah with a somewhat successful smile.
In fact, she had long known that Jake was Hannah’s boyfriend.
Hannah looked at the two people who are in love. She now looked like a concubine in front of them. Her eyes were blurred, and Jake’s gaze was more disappointing than sad.
“Jake, you said at the beginning that you wanted me to wait for you for our better future. You told me that you were going to study abroad. You said you didn’t want your attention distracted by me. For your future, I have been patient and given you space, so that I wouldn’t distract you. In the end, not only did you not go abroad, but you also got together with her. Are you deceiving me to be deserving of your inner voice?"
Huh… what an irony.
She did not expect that Jake’s so-called study abroad was just an excuse to get rid of her.
Men, all are liars!
The relationship that deceived her for four years, and now he is at ease with her sister.
Jake scrolled up and down a few times, flicked away her hand holding her arm and said complicatedly, “I’m sorry, the person I love has always been eloquent.”
“Asshole!”
A sentence of sorry wiped out the entire four-year relationship. Even though Hannah was strong, her eyes were red. “You said that when you return, you will wed me. Did you forget?”
“I…” Jake struggled a bit in his eyes.
Before Jake could speak, she was interrupted by Victoria. She staggered forward and held Hannah’s arm excitedly.
“Sister, I know that you have never seen me since you were a child, and hate me, but…” Victoria’s tears of grievances rolled from her eyes, “I and Jake love and cherish each other deeply, and his intention was not to hurt you by doing this. I can give you anything. Please don’t break us up, okay?”
The people among the guests heard Victoria’s weak crying, and they immediately talked about it. Unexpectedly, Hannah would suddenly stage a scene of robbing her sister’s boyfriend on this occasion, which was really shocking!
“Hannah is really shameless. She must have seduced Roderick before and even grabbed her sister’s boyfriend.”
“True. I have also heard that she has a bad behavior and that her moral compass is corrupt. It seems that the rumors are true.”
Regardless of other people’s gossip, Hannah looked at Jake with red eyes, while Jake’s eyes were always avoiding her. If he truly cherished her, if he still had a trace of guilt for her, he would stand up and represent her. The person who had been with him for four years was her, Hannah, and not Victoria.
But… he didn’t. He didn’t speak for her at all. He acquiesced that she was the outsider between him and Victoria.
“Sister, please don’t fight me. Our Han Family can look away if you cause trouble, but the Lin Family can’t. Let’s go back and talk about this, okay?”
Victoria knows reason and moves with affection. No matter how you look at it, it’s Hannah making trouble without a reason.
In the end, Hannah sneered. She was accustomed to Victoria’s tactics. Since childhood, as long as it was her things, she would unscrupulously rob her. What she did not expect was that this time would be her boyfriend.
But things have already happened, and life must go on. Hannah held her lips weakly. She hated no one. She blamed herself for falling in love with Jake blindly.
“We don’t have to go back and talk about anything. I will fulfill you today.”
If others can take away what you call yours, then it’s not yours. No matter how you try to keep him, he doesn’t belong to you.
But before that, Hannah picked up the red wine on the side and poured it on the faces of the two unceremoniously, “I wish you happiness!”
Bitch with a dog, forever!
