No Substitutes for the Bigshots' Dream Girl Anymore!-Chapter 149: Satire
She looked up at the man beside her, indeed, George River stared at the person across him, a bit lost in thought.
She steadied herself and the polite smile on her face remained perfect, "Miss Winter, what a coincidence to meet you here."
This time, she did not address Hannah as "this lady."
She already knew her identity and name, and even where she had studied and where she had recently been to.
Not mentioning it before was just a way of saving face, intending to make it clear that Hannah’s identity was not on par with hers, Tiffany Lynch.
Not pretending not to know her now was just another warning.
Hannah certainly understood Tiffany’s intention, but the smile on her face remained tender and gentle, carrying a startling charm.
Her eyes swept over the man furrowing his brows, then at their interlocked hands. Her look was mild, and her words carried a hint of a smirk, "Indeed, it is a coincidence."
George River looked at the young girl in front of him for a while, trying to find the familiar sadness on her face.
But it was not there.
His hand tightened suddenly, leaving a bitter taste in his heart.
"George." Tiffany Lynch gently called out to the man beside her, "What are you looking at?"
George River shook his head, looked towards his companion, his eyes softening. He gently tucked a loose hair behind her ear, his tone warm, "nothing."
Upon the newfound tenderness in the man beside her, Tiffany Lynch’s face blushed. Her usually somber demeanor now took on a hint of shyness, making her beautiful laughing face more appealing.
Their closeness seemed unbreakable.
Hannah just quietly watched the scene unfold in front of her, letting the original host burst into tears.
The man she once poured her heart into, the man she cherished, now devoted all his affection to someone else. It was an affection for which she becoming lowly and humble was not enough, and a scene she had never witnessed.
However, with Hannah now, she did not cry, she only dimmed her smile a bit.
In her peripheral vision, Tiffany Lynch noticed everything. The smile on her lips grew more satisfied. Seeing her about to leave, she decided to seize the moment.
Holding onto her man’s hand, she turned her head, her voice crisp, "Miss Winter, I heard you’ll be participating in Shining Star Journey 2 as well. Congratulations. We have a lot of time to get to know each other."
George River, hearing these words, paused. The look in his eyes deepened as he gazed at the girl’s silhouette from behind.
This opportunity to be part of Shining Star Journey 2, Hannah Winter had asked for it when they broke up.
Of course, he refused.
However, he wondered how she managed to get it now.
Did she latch onto someone else?
For some reason, George River felt a sudden suffocation in his heart, a feeling that quickly vanished.
Hearing what she said, the girl paused, turned around and responded calmly, "Are you also participating?"
Tiffany Lynch nodded, walking a few steps forward to face the girl. Her chin slightly raised, looked at the girl with a superior sense of self-pride, "I hope we have the chance to collaborate. I believe Miss Winter will surely impress me, right?"
In her pure white evening gown and a priceless diamond necklace around her neck, she was lavishly and exquisitely dressed. This was something she definitely couldn’t afford. This was in stark contrast with the girl in front of her, dressed in a black dress.
Black and white, they were like the natural opposites of each other.
