barely moved while asleep.
And when Trevon saw Hannah, he was surprisingly calm.
On the contrary, Hannah totally lost it. She rushed forward to separate us.
She shouted hysterically, “What are you two doing?
“Seraphina, you bitch!
“I’m gonna kill you! Why couldn’t you leave me and Trevon alone? Why would you insist on taking him away from me?
“You wouldn’t stop unless I died, right?”
She grabbed my hair.
In the next second, Trevon threw her aside. He exerted so much force that she was slammed against the wall.
She totally cracked, and her eyes were utterly red.
I wanted to explain.
“You got us wrong. It’s not what you…”
But then I stopped talking.
I didn’t think my explanation was convincing. Besides, why would I explain anyway?
Three years ago, she claimed I pushed her down the stairs.

I chose to look at her coldly without saying another word.
The commotion didn’t last long; soon, the room was all quiet again.
Trevon took her to the study calmly.
They talked for a long time.
I could vaguely hear her desperate sobs ringing out from time to time.
Meanwhile, I sat on the bed in a daze.
Whatever was happening in this world had nothing to do with
- me.
Then her voice drifted over.
“No. It’s not an agreement. Not to me. Trevon, we’ll be engaged in three days. I’ll be your wife.
“Your family is gonna announce to cancel our engagement tomorrow? No! I won’t accept that. I will marry you no matter
what.
“Please. Let me marry you.”
Obviously, she was on the verge of a breakdown.
Then I heard Trevon’s cold voice, which was devoid of any emotion like that of a robot.
“What are you up to, Hannah?
“We had a deal, remember? We were never gonna get engaged. It was just a smoke screen to stabilize your family

company’s stocks.
“A favor repaid, nothing more.”
I was stunned.
What did he say?
It was a deal? They weren’t going to get engaged?
I clutched my head.
Everything was so messed up.
I couldn’t find any reasonable explanation.
Hable
Before I realized it, they had stopped talking.
As I looked up, I met Hannah’s cold gaze.
Suddenly, she said, “Trevon, can’t you see?

“Seraphina has changed. Her eyes are so icy now; she no longer loves you.
“As long as she agrees to marry you now, I’ll leave and never show up in front of you again. OK?”
I stopped clutching my head and stared blankly at them.
Trevon seemed nervous. He walked over to me and held my hand gently.
“Don’t be afraid, Seraphina.”
Frowning, I looked at him.
“What are you talking about?”

He brushed away the slightly messy strands of hair from my cheeks.
Then he said, “Seraphina, the words I’m about to say are all true.”
He gripped my hand tightly for a second before letting go. Reaching into his pocket, he took out a red velvet box.
Then he opened it with a click.
I saw a dazzling ten–carat diamond ring.
Hannah was shocked.
“You…”
Trevon took my hand and kissed the back of it gently.
Maybe it was my illusion; I felt that his hand was trembling.

Then, in the next second, he knelt on one knee.
“Seraphina, will you marry me? Say yes, and you’ll call all the shots regarding the Parker family.
“I’ll be at your command, too.
“I’ll love you and make it up to you for the rest of my life.”
