A Beautiful Misunderstanding

The moment Hanson was released, he rushed to the apartment to look for Essie. However, she wasn't there, and all he found was an empty room. When he came out the door, he received a message from Essie.

"Hanson, I apologize. I can't run off to Italy with you. After thinking it over, I've changed my mind. I am now the lady of the honorable Rong family. I have gained so much power from my affiliation with this family, and the possibilities are limitless. It would not be worth it to give it all up to become a nobody. Perhaps, like other women, I also like the idea of materialism and vanity. I neither have the confidence nor courage to start off in a new place with nothing. I know that love is valuable, but bread is more important to survive. If I were to choose one, I would rather choose bread. There was a time I resented you for choosing Bella over our love, but I now understand that you were in fact making the righteous choice. We could only be happy if we had wealth and power. If we had love but were poor, we would end up living a life of regret, and would live the rest of our lives unhappy. Just forget about our relationship, I don't deserve your love. Find a girl who can love and take care of you."

When Hanson saw the message, he was on the verge of breaking down.

He had known Essie for so long and knew that she was not a materialistic girl who loved vanity. There must be something or someone that was forcing her to send such a message.

He drove quickly, rushed into Jobson's office and yelled, "Tell me where Essie is now! Did you lock her up?" He pounded on the table and roared.

Jobson was calm and emotionless as he took a drag of his cigar. He replied, "When I asked someone to take her, she was seen leaving with the Rong family's men. She has probably returned to her husband's side by now."

Hanson eyebrows furrowed with a torrent of rage, and slowly his face contorted into a venomous outburst. He swiftly turned around, rushing to find Essie, but he was soon stopped by Jobson's men.

"Are you going to run after her in Dragon City? Do you think you even have a chance when it's Zac you're competing with?" Jobson sneered and continued, "You are not powerful enough to defeat him. With your strength, you would be defeated before you even lift a finger."

Hanson could feel his anger boiling up inside. He clenched his fists and a crunching sound was heard from his strength. "I will demolish that man. Even if it takes the rest of my life," he retaliated.
