Aspen did not bother to answer. Whether Hannah admitted it or not, the truth was already clear.
Yet, here she was-desperately clinging to the belief that she had been right all along. It was laughable. No, it was downright pathetic.
Aspen found it amusing, but in a way, she was the same. She had been crushed by Kingsley time and time again, only to refuse to accept it.
She had also kept chasing after her so-called dignity, convinced that she, Aspen of Bridgefields’ Snees family, could never lose. In the end, she and Hannah were not so different.
The two women soon arrived at the Weller family estate.
Harvey had not seen Hannah in a while, but the moment she walked through the door, he smirked.
He teased, “Hannah, don’t tell me you’ve come to your senses and decided to crawl back to me. If that’s the case, I might be willing to give you another chance. Bring Snees Corporation under my name, and I’ll make sure your family is set for life.”
Hannah shot him with a look of pure disgust. “Harvey, you’re nothing but a perverted scumbag who sleeps with his own stepmother. Just hearing your voice makes my skin crawl!”
Harvey’s smirk instantly darkened, his jaw tightening. “If you’re not here to beg, then what the hell do you want, you bitch? Whatever it is, I don’t have time for it. But don’t worry-once I’m done with my business, I’ll make sure to crush the Snees family properly.”
Aspen scoffed. “You can try, Harvey. But if you so much as lay a finger on Hannah, I’ll make sure the entire Weller family burns to the ground.”
Harvey let out a mocking laugh. “Aspen, drop the act. Do you really think your Bridgefields’ Snees family scares me? Anyway, just say what you need to say, and then get the hell out.”
Hannah ignored his hostility and got straight to the point. “Harvey, back at Jayrodale Bank, you lied about calling Mr. Thatcher to help me, didn’t you?”
Harvey leaned back, his smirk returning. He mocked, “Took you long enough to figure that out. Hannah, you really are exactly what Kingsley said you were-just a pretty face with no brains to match.”
He continued, “That’s right. I never had the power to call Mr. Thatcher. That was all Kingsley. After saving Thatcher’s life, he became one of his most trusted people. That bastard got lucky-his entire life has been one stroke of dumb luck after another.”
Hannah barely processed the last part of Harvey’s words. All she heard was Kingsley had been important from the very beginning.
She took a slow breath, her heart pounding. “Then let me ask you something else-whenever the Snees family was in trouble, you weren’t the one who stepped in to help us, were you?”
Harvey rolled his eyes and looked at her like she was an idiot. He scoffed, “Do you even have to ask? Why the hell would help the Snees family? Sure, back then, I wanted to get you into my bed, so I made a few small efforts to impress you. But every time I tried to take the spotlight, that bastard Kingsley got in my way!”
His voice grew sharper, tinged with resentment. “And if that wasn’t enough, on the very day I became head of the Weller family, Kingsley walked in and nearly crippled my. family’s elders. Then, just when thought I’d finally get rid of your precious Snees family, Kingsley swooped in again and bailed you out.”
“If it weren’t for him, your company would have gone under long ago. And you?” Harvey licked his lips, a lecherous grin spreading across his face.
“You’d already be in my bed. Those long legs of yours, that cold, untouchable face… I could play with you for years and never get bored.”
His eyes darkened with lust, his greedy gaze raking over her body. It had been too long since he had Serena to satisfy him, and now, standing before him, was Hannah the one woman he had always wanted to break.
Hannah completely ignored Harvey’s vile words because, at that moment, her mind was in utter chaos. She had no choice but to believe it-whether she wanted to accept it or not. Kingsley had helped the Snees family countless times, and it turned out that her position as CEO, even her very survival, had all been thanks to him.
Everything she thought she knew was wrong. It was her arrogance and prejudice that had hurt the one man who should have belonged to her all along.
Harvey made no effort to hide his venomous amusement as he mocked, “Hannah, are you finally waking up? Do you finally see how amazing Kingsley was?”
He laughed and added, “Too bad, though. Kingsley is already soaring high, and he doesn’t feel anything for you anymore. Compared to Lauren or Francesca, don’t you think they’re all better than you?
“They’ve got better backgrounds, better connections-what do you have left? Nothing. So instead of being stubborn, why not just give in and marry into the Weller family?”
His eyes gleamed as he took a slow, lustful look at Hannah’s legs and chest.
To him, those were the parts he desired the most-what he longed to ravage, to conquer. He imagined the proud, ice-cold woman writhing beneath him, completely at his mercy.
That, to Harvey, was a man’s highest achievement-breaking her, making her submit, fulfilling his deepest, most twisted desire for domination.
He said, “What do you think? If we join forces, you’ll become my wife, and with the Weller family’s backing, you can slap Kingsley in the face. Show him that you’ve moved on, that you’re living far better than he ever could.
“And me? I’ll have you in my arms and bring glory back to my family. A win-win for both of us.”
Hannah’s heart burned with regret, frustration, and an unspoken, indescribable resentment. Her emotions were tangled in a storm of anger and bitterness.
Moreover, hearing Harvey’s taunting words only added fuel to the fire. She could not hold back any longer -her hand lashed out, slapping him hard across the face.
“Harvey, listen to me and listen well. No matter how low I fall, I will never give you a single chance. You’re nothing but a worthless piece of trash, a disgusting animal!”
Her voice was ice-cold as she spat the words, glaring at him with pure hatred.
Harvey clutched his stinging cheek, his jaw tightening as he snarled, “Hannah, if it weren’t for Aspen and that damn hunchback old man.
guarding the Snees familial ne now would have already tortured you!”
The only reason he had not made a move on the Snees family yet was because of Gordon’s presence. Aspen smirked playfully and said, “Good, as long as you know what you’re dealing with, Harvey. But let me tell you something-Kingsley, Rodney, and you? None of you will escape my grasp!”
Harvey let out a cold laugh. “That old cripple might be untouchable for now, but as for you, Aspen? If you dare to come knocking on my door, let’s see if the Weller family will let you walk out alive.”
Then, he turned back to Hannah, his eyes dark and filled with bitter hatred. “Hannah, you’d better pray that the Snees family always has someone strong protecting them: ? Because the moment I get the chance, I will make sure you that pathetic excuse of a mother, and your useless little brother all know what real suffering is!”
He continued, “You probably never even realized it, but the only reason you’ve been living comfortably, acting like some untouchable, elegant CEO, was because Kingsley was there to protect you.
“But now? Without him, the Snees family is just an easy target, a juicy piece of meat for anyone to sink their teeth into. I was just unlucky that I didn’t get to devour you first otherwise, by now, you would’ve been nothing more than a filthy whore!”
Hannah snapped, and she screamed at the top of her lungs, her blood-red eyes blazing with fury. “You disgusting beast! Shut up! Shut the hell up!”
Harvey grew even more delighted, bursting into laughter. “What’s wrong? Did I strike a nerve? Did I dig into that dark, shameful corner of your heart?”
He mocked, “Hannah, are you finally realizing what a complete fool you’ve been? Do you feel like the pathetic woman who brought this all on herself? Kingsley treated you well and gave the Snees family respect, but you were too blind to appreciate it-you pushed him away.
“And now, look at you. The Snees family is struggling at every turn, surviving only because you’re clinging to the Bridgefields’ Snees family for dear life. That’s why when Aspen was crushed the moment she stepped into Jayrodale, your family had to bite their tongue and endure it.”
His voice turned colder, eyes glinting with malice as he continued to tear into her.
“But if Kingsley were still around, things would be different. The Snees family would have grown much stronger by now, and you wouldn’t be in this mess. But too bad-Kingsley isn’t yours anymore. He belongs to Lauren or maybe Francesca. Either way, he’s long gone.
“Remember how you trusted me? How you stood by my side and went after Kingsley, hurting him again and again? I bet Kingsley was devastated. He probably thinks you’re a hopeless idiot-just a pretty face with nothing inside that head of yours.”
Harvey chuckled darkly. “In fact, I should be thanking you, Hannah. Without your stupidity, I never would’ve won against Kingsley, not even a couple of times.”
Hannah’s voice cracked as she roared, “You liar! You filthy animal! I never wanted to hurt Kingsley! Who the hell do you think you are? You never won against him-you never could!”
Yet, her fury only fueled Harvey’s sick pleasure. The more she cursed him, the more he laughed.
He sneered. “Go ahead. Scream, curse me out. Let it all out. At the end of the day, it wasn’t me who messed up. It was you, Hannah. You claim you never tried to hurt Kingsley, but your actions said otherwise. You hurt him more than anyone else ever could, and you know it.
“I almost feel sorry for Kingsley. He wasted his time protecting a family as worthless as the Snees. Your mother’s a coward, your brother’s an incompetent fool, and you? You’re just a self-righteous, clueless woman who couldn’t tell a friend from a snake.
“If it weren’t for your help, I never would’ve had the chance to strut around and act like I was a match for Kingsley. You practically handed me the victory yourself!”
Hannah’s tears poured down her face as she clutched her head, her mind unraveling beneath the weight of his words. She screamed, “Stop it! Stop talking! I said stop!”
Her sobs turned into wild shrieks. “You bastard! You disgusting piece of trash! I swear I’ll kill you!”
Blinded by rage, she lunged at Harvey, her eyes filled with murderous intent.
Aspen reacted just in time, grabbing her around the waist and pulling her away from the Weller residence.
“Hannah, snap out of it!” Aspen shouted, holding her tightly as she thrashed in his arms. “Get a grip! None of this is your fault-you didn’t do anything wrong!”
However, Hannah broke down completely. She buried her face in her hands, sobbing uncontrollably. “Aspen, I really messed up. I blamed Kingsley for everything… but he was the one saving us all along
She continued, “He’s surpassed me, leaving me far behind. And all this time… I was the clown. I thought I was capable and that I had built the Snees Corporation with my own strength. But it was him-it was Kingsley every single time.”
Her voice cracked with self-loathing. “I was so blind. I’m such an idiot… such a pathetic, worthless woman.”
Lost in despair, Hannah raised her hand and slapped herself across the face with brutal force.
Aspen’s face darkened with anger as she barked, “Hannah, you listen to me. You are not any less than Kingsley.
“The decision you made back then wasn’t wrong. You’re Hannah Snees, the elegant CEO of the Snees Corporation. Are you really willing to admit that you were blind, that you misjudged Kingsley so badly?”
For a moment, Hannah hesitated, confusion flickering across her tear-streaked face. She shook her head. “No… of course I don’t want to admit that I was blind, that I couldn’t see what was right in front of me.”
She mumbled, “But what’s the point in denying it when the truth is so obvious? I was wrong-horribly, irredeemably wrong.”
A bitter, broken laugh escaped her lips. The proud, confident woman she once was faded like the closing credits of a movie. All that remained was sorrow, regret, and a hollow sense of defeat.
Aspen let out a cold snort. “Hannah, you’re too kind-you always blame yourself for other people’s mistakes. Think about it. Kingsley’s the one snuggling up to Lauren and Francesca now, living off those women like some gold-digger. And you? You’re the victim here.
“If he really loved you, he never would’ve left. He would’ve stayed, would’ve fought for you. So stop it- you didn’t do anything wrong.”
Tears streamed down Hannah’s face. “But I was the one who broke up with him… I was the one who turned cold right before our wedding. I destroyed his heart, Aspen. I-I was a blind, arrogant woman chasing after vanity and ambition.”
Aspen’s lips curled into a mocking smile. “And you ever think maybe this pathetic breakdown of yours is exactly what Kingsley wants to see? Let’s say you hurt him-so what? People make mistakes. Nobody’s perfect.”
She argued, “If Kingsley truly loved you, would he have called you an idiot? Would he have turned around and run straight into Lauren’s arms? No real man would give up so easily. He clearly didn’t deserve you. And what kind of man runs off the moment he doesn’t get what he wants? If you’d married him, you’d be the one suffering now. You got lucky, trust me.”
Hannah’s mind spiraled into confusion. Aspen’s twisted words wormed their way into her thoughts like poison.
“Do you really think so, Aspen?” she whispered, her voice trembling.
“Of course I do,” Aspen answered with certainty. “Everyone knows how exceptional you are, Hannah. You made one mistake big deal. You misjudged Kingsley-so what? He’s a man, isn’t he? Where’s his maturity? His patience?”
She added, “Look at Harvey-he’s trash, sure-but even he can’t forget you. And you? If you gave the word, you’d have wealthy heirs, CEOs, hotshot investors tripping over themselves just to get a date with you Finding a man is
You know what they say: there are plenty of fish in the sea.”
His twisted logic seeped into Hannah’s heart. She wiped away her tears and slowly nodded, mumbling, “Aspen, you’re right. I might’ve misjudged Kingsley, but it wasn’t all my fault. All I wanted was to chase after something bigger-to build something with my own two hands.
“I had dreams, ambition, a vision for success. How was that wrong? No, I wasn’t wrong. No one should ever be shamed for chasing their dreams. I need to find Kingsley… I need to talk to him and set things straight.”
Aspen’s face twisted with concern. “Wait, Hannah… you’re not seriously thinking about getting back with him, are you?”
Hannah went quiet for a long moment, then shook her head. “I don’t know what the future holds for us. But I do know this: I’ll prove to Kingsley and myself that even without him, I can carve out my own success.”
Aspen’s face darkened with anger as she barked, “Hannah, you listen to me. You are not any less than Kingsley. “The decision you made back then wasn’t wrong. You’re Hannah Snees, the elegant CEO of the Snees Corporation. Are you really willing to admit that you were blind, that you misjudged Kingsley so badly?”
For a moment, Hannah hesitated, confusion flickering across her tear-streaked face. She shook her head. “No… of course I don’t want to admit that I was blind, that I couldn’t see what was right in front of me.”
She mumbled, “But what’s the point in denying it when the truth is so obvious? I was wrong-horribly, irredeemably wrong.’
A bitter, broken laugh escaped her lips. The proud, confident woman she once was faded like the closing credits of a movie. All that remained was sorrow, regret, and a hollow sense of defeat.
Aspen let out a cold short. “Hannah, you’re too kind-you always blame yourself for other people’s mistakes. Think about it. Kingsley’s the one snuggling up to Lauren and Francesca now, living off those women like some gold-digger. And you? You’re the victim here.
“If he really loved you, he never would’ve left. He would’ve stayed, would’ve fought for you. So stop it you didn’t do anything wrong.”
Tears streamed down Hannah’s face. “But I was the one who broke up with him… I was the one who turned cold right before our wedding. I destroyed his heart, Aspen. I-I was a blind, arrogant woman chasing after vanity and ambition.”
