A Beautiful Misunderstanding

"Okay, I'll take you home so you can rest. Then we'll go to eat in a French restaurant, okay?" Hanson smiled gently as he made a turn at the next corner.

Essie didn't talk all the way to the apartment. As soon as she arrived, the first thing she did was lie on the sofa.

"I'll get you a glass of juice," Hanson said. Just as he was about to get up, she stretched out her hand to grab his and said, "Don't go, Hanson. Stay here with me."

She knew she was going to lose him again. And this time, she was going to lose him completely. But she couldn't blame him for that. This time, the fate of Bella was at stake. It was about the prospect of tens of thousands of employees, and as the successor of the CEO, he had the responsibility to protect Bella and its employees.

Moreover, this undeserved catastrophe was all because of her.

He sat down beside her and let her rest her head on his lap. "You little fool, I'm just going to get some juice for you. I won't leave you alone." As he spoke, he gently stroked her face.

"I know," Essie mumbled as tears welled up unconsciously in her eyes. She immediately turned her head so that he wouldn't see the tears rolling down from her eyes and onto his pants.

The warmth of her tears made him tremble slightly. He looked down at her and said, "You should be happy since you won the championship. Why are you crying?"

She sat up, her tears streaming down her face like someone had opened the floodgates in her eyes. "Hanson, I know everything about what's going on with Bella."

Trembling violently, he raised his hand to try to wipe away her tears, but there was nothing he could do to get rid of them all. Her tears would not stop streaming down her face. In all her life, her heart had never been this full of despair.
