No Substitutes for the Bigshots' Dream Girl Anymore!-Chapter 61: Memories
Hannah was fuming, hands on her hips.
Lily, grinning goofily, added, "Of course, we all like to give ourselves a fluffy body lately. The more fur, the cuter and prettier we are."
Having said that, Lily began to play around in front of the mirror with her new Husky body.
It was only the size of a palm, but it had everything it should, and what it shouldn’t.
Hehe~
Hannah: "...Like playing a lute before a cow."
Lily turned her head back and corrected Hannah’s mistake, "Master, Lily is a doggy~"
And she even blinked her three white eyes.
Hannah: "..."
Speechless.
She turned her head and looked at the unfamiliar face and familiar eyes in the mirror, lost in her memories.
Long ago, when Hannah was just a child, she didn’t care much about her appearance.
She dug her eyes, was skinny from hunger, and even her clothes were all tattered.
The homeless children on the desolate planet after the defeat.
She learned to beg from other children, but all she ever got was a scolding and beating.
They called her dirty, a little beggar, disgusting.
They hit her with fist-sized stones, drove her away with sticks, telling their own children to stay away from her.
She couldn’t understand, clearly they were all victims, why did they bully each other?
Later, someone told her that even if you beg, you should clean yourself up, which will increase your chances of getting food, and even if you don’t, you will at least avoid a beating.
She remembered.
Unfortunately, as she grew up, her beauty brought her advantages, but also dangers. She was just too attractive.
Once again, she realized that mere beauty wasn’t enough. She needed inner strength. The confidence and pride that came with power, rather than remaining a humble wanderer forever.
Just like the original Hannah Winter, no matter how beautiful she was, people would only compliment her superficiality, which eventually became her own shackles.
Did Hannah Winter really resemble Tiffany Lynch?
In her opinion, maybe not so much. At most, only a slight resemblance in their eyebrows and eyes. In fact, the original Hannah was even prettier than Tiffany, but the original Hannah was too stupid. She let those men who claimed to love her completely change her into someone else.
Hannah Winter discarded her true self. Every word and action was deliberately imitating Tiffany Lynch. To please those men, she forced herself into being a substitute. Even her great beauty was reduced to a fraction.
Was she stupid?
Girls in love indeed easily lose themselves. On the last day, Hannah looked at her ruined face in the mirror and finally woke up.
She wasted half her life trying to become someone else’s shadow, and buried her true self.
Unfortunately, she was born to be cannon fodder, destined for a tragic ending.
The saying "Beauty is in the bone, not in the skin" is true. Everyone loves beautiful things, but if it’s only superficial, it’s just a flash in the pan. Only a strong heart and self-confidence can accompany you for life.
Stick to what you have, and don’t insist on what you don’t have, because you have to believe that you’re already good enough.
She really couldn’t care about what others said about Hannah in the past, but now she’s using this face, this identity.
Arnold’s indifference to Hannah was more like when you are trying to seduce a man with all your scheming.
