The Ceo’s Convict Wife

“So it’s too deep to be taken back…” Calvin murmured. His long eyelashes lowered gently, half covering his deep eyes.

Hanna thought, “What’s he thinking? Is he thinking about the man he loved? Lorin said that Calvin stopped dating others for the one he loved. He even risked his life and… decided to be single all his life! How much does he love that woman? Even our current relationship is for….. that woman.”

“What’s wrong?” Calvin’s voice suddenly sounded.

Only then did Hanna realize that she was lost in her thoughts while staring at Calvin. Calvin already looked up and met her eyes.

“N-Nothing. I’m just thinking that after you said those words to Lorin today, he may not pester me anymore.” Hanna paused, thought of something, and then hurriedly said, “I… I know that what you said was not true. You don’t love me. Don’t worry… I… I won’t get you wrong, and I won’t pester you when we break up afterward.”

Hanna was so anxious to explain, but she spoke too fast. She even let out a low cry in pain since she hurt her swollen face while speaking.

“Alright, I got it. You didn’t get me wrong.” Calvin’s fingertip pressed against Hanna’s lips and also stopped her voice. “Take a good rest firs

Hanna felt her lips were burning.

Hanna lay down on the bed embarrassedly. She felt that even her who face was burning. She thought, “My face must be really red now. What. wrong with me? How can I blush like this just because of

Calyin’s one finger? Is it because of… Calvin’s face? He’s too good-looking. I think it should be normal… to blush when such a handsome man presses my lips with his finger.”

Hanna comforted herself in her mind and then closed her eyes to stop looking at Calvin.

After a while, Hanna started to breathe evenly. Obviously, she had already fallen asleep.

Calvin was a little surprised. He didn’t expect Hanna to fall asleep so soon.

“She’s really… careless,” Calvin murmured. He thought, “Is it because she trusts me?” He looked at the red and swollen parts of Hanna’s face. For the first time, he felt that it was so uncomfortable to see Hanna’s face hurt.

…

“What? No bail?” In the meeting room in the detention center, Bethany looked at the lawyer hired by her family for her and couldn’t believe what she heard.

“Yes, Ms. Esmond. Because the background actors all said that you instructed them to hurt Hanna, and they also have transfer records of the money you gave them. Now the police have both the witnesses and physical evidence, so according to regulations, you should be detained for at least 15 days,” said the lawyer.

“15 days? “Bethany said in surprise. She thought, “I don’t even want to stay for a day! Besides, if I’m really detained and the news spreads out, my acting career will be over. What’s worse, I’ve managed to suck up to Mr. York! If he knows about this, I won’t…

Thinking of this, Bethany hurriedly said, “No way. I have to get out of here immediately, no matter how much money it’ll cost.”

“Ms. Esmond, I really can’t do that,” said the lawyer.

“Why not?” Bethany was anxious. “I can get out as long as we pay eno bail, right? I can promise not to leave the city.”

“Ms. Esmond, you’ve offended the Gunner family this time.” The lawy could only make it clearer for Bethany. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Bethany was stunned for a second. “What… do you mean?”

“The Gunner family has told the police to go through the whole progres justly.” In other words, if the police really gave Bethany special treatment, then the one who did so would be screwed.

Therefore, even if the lawyer wanted to use some relationships, it wouldn’t work.

Bethany was confused. She thought, “I… I’ve never offended the Gunner family. Even if I really incite other actors to strike with her, that’s just our crew’s business. It won’t harm the Gunner family’s interest. What the hell is going on? The assistant named Yolanda saved Hanna on the set and called the police to arrest us, and now the Gunner family seems to be targeting me!”

Bethany was so confused, and all her resentment was aimed at Hanna.

She thought, “If it weren’t for that woman, how could I end up like this?! Hanna, I’ll definitely make you suffer!”

Hanna didn’t expect that she really… fell asleep after closing her eyes.

And she even slept… so well!

Hanna remembered that it was about 3 p.m. when she entered the ward, and now it was completely dark outside.

Hanna thought, “How long have I been sleeping?”

“You’re awake? Are you hungry?” The familiar and gentle voice sounded in the ward.

Hanna suddenly sat up and couldn’t help howling again. She got up too fast and her body ached again.

“You’re injured now. Don’t move too fast. That gentle voice sounded again.

Hanna looked at that person who was still in the ward blankly. “You… You didn’t go home?”

“I’m free today so I just stay here. Today is also our date day, anyway not bad to date in the ward like this,” said Calvin.

Hanna blinked and thought, “Well, it’s not bad indeed.”

Hanna’s belly suddenly grunted, and then she looked at Calvin embarrassedly.

“I think you should be hungry now. You’ve been sleeping for ten hours,” said Calvin.

Hearing this, Hanna was shocked. “Ten hours? Then what time is it now?”

“It’s almost 4 a.m.,” said Calvin.

Hanna was stunned. She really had slept for a long while. “Then you haven’t slept yet?” Although there was a foldable sofa bed in the ward, Hanna noticed that it was still a sofa, not a bed.

Besides, Calvin’s clothes were neat and not wrinkled. It seemed that he hadn’t slept yet.

“Yeah, not yet. What would you like to eat?” asked Calvin.

“It’s so late. Those restaurants must have been closed now,” said Hanna. Those restaurants that sold midnight snacks would also be closed at 1 or 2 a.m.

“Since I’ve asked you, then you can definitely get what you want to eat,” Calvin said confidently. “But the doctor said that you should eat less spicy and greasy food recently because of your injury.”

“Just porridge, then,” said Hanna.

Calvin took out his phone, called someone, and then said to Hanna, “It will be delivered in 20 minutes.”
