When Susan hung up the phone, it was 2:00 AM.
However, she still couldn't help getting thrilled and moved whenever she thought of what Hannah had
done for her.
If Hannah were a guy, she would probably marry him!
She put down her phone, which had almost gone out of power. If it weren't because of Oscar waiting to
be tended, she would have spent a few more minutes talking with Hannah.
Perhaps Oscar just figured out an excuse to get Hannah on his bed.
She felt like Oscar might be probably mounting on Hannah at this moment.
However, Hannah had been scheduling her life regularly, who normally went to bed at ten and wake up
at six in the next morning.
While Susan was a night person.
Soon, she got a call from her friends in nightclub.
"I am not gonna hang out right now." She picked it up to answer.
Laying on the bed, she felt like it was time for her to make a change.
Her wedding was coming. It would get Henry embarrassed if she got filmed dancing in the nightclub by
some paparazzi.
She had made up her mind-she would never enter any nightclub again after she got married.
She just wanted to be a wife loyal to Henry. Whenever she felt bored staying alone, she would go to
work with Henry as his assistant, staying by his side 24/7.
She couldn't wait to experience life like that.
"Hey, I am not asking you out to drink!" noise from the club could be heard from the other side of the
line.
Susan found it hard to hear out, "What?"
"Wait. I gotta get to a quiet place." Her friend murmured.
Quite a while later, noise had faded away.
"I am not asking you out to drink."
"So what are you calling for? You wanna borrow some money?" asked Susan.
"Just listen to me till I finish!"
"Keep going."
"Do you know who I just met in the club?" her friend started tantalizing.
"Come on, I am getting sleepy!" Susan huffed impatiently.
"You're so boring!" her friend complained and then added, "I saw Manuel walking away with the hottest
stripper inside the club."
Hearing that, Susan felt like frozen.
But then she replied casually, "None of my business."
"I heard that stripper was lustful! No man could stay abstinent in front of her." Her friend didn't seem to
notice Susan's reply. She kept on saying excitedly.
Speechless, Susan didn't seem to be interested.
"Hey, no comment for that?" as her friend finished, she continued to ask.
"Comment for what?"
"He's your stepbrother, isn't he?"
"None of my business." Susan replied coldly, "Wish him enjoy it if he wanna sleep with a whore."
"Hey, you sound weird."
"You got me wrong. I really wish he will end up with AIDs."
"See? You sound uneasy!"
"Hey…"
"Susan, I heard that you used to be in an ambiguous relationship with him back into high school." Her
friend seemed curious.
"Who told you that? Purely fake news! I gotta kill that rumormonger!" Susan was pissed.
"Was that real?"
"Fake!"
"Somebody told me they saw you kiss him."
"Bullshit!"
"You took the initiative? Or he did? Or both of you?"
"Shut the fuck up and get yourself something to drink!" Susan went mad.
Obviously, her friend noticed her anger.
So she hurried to hang up the phone.
Susan threw her phone aside.
'Who spread my kiss with him?!' she huffed to herself.
Indeed, she did kiss Manuel out of whim.
Now she badly regretted it.
She hoped it had never happened before.
Anger surged up in her mind. She covered her head with quilt and closed her eyes, hoping that her
wedding day will be coming as soon as possible.
She couldn't help getting thrilled again when she realized that she was about to marry Henry.
Surrounded by the longing for future, she gradually fell asleep.
Then she started dreaming, in which Manuel appeared.
'Fuck, how could you still haunt me in the dream!'
Inside her dream, Manuel was wearing a high school uniform.
She still remembered it was at a time when both of them were preparing for the New Year's party at
school in senior one, during which Manuel needed to perform piano solo on stage while Susan and her
classmates were required to do social dancing after that.
During a casual rehearsal, her dancing partner fell ill and thus got absent.
The teacher assigned Manuel to dance with Susan.
It was the closest moment for both of them.
As time went by, her dancing partner had frequently asked for sick leave. So Manuel became her
regular dancing partner.
Both of them were raised in privileged family. Thus, they could easily adapt to social dancing.
Manuel showed his talent in it though he always had been taciturn.
Their dancing at the party attracted the greatest consummation that night.
When their show ended, perhaps driven by excitement, Susan accidentally sprained her own ankle.
Luckily, Manuel reacted fast enough to catch her before she stumbled down on the stage.
Then he held her up into his arms and rushed to the dispensary.
Seeing his nervous expression, Susan felt like totally forgetting about the pain down her ankle.
Fortunately, she didn't hurt much. After the school doctor applied some ointment for her, she was free
to leave.
It was Manuel who carried her out with his back, which she felt eased while leaning against.
Manuel was about 6 feet tall at the age of 16.
Among those high school boys, he looked impressive.
Perhaps it was from that time that she started to have a crush on Manuel.
When Manuel took her back to the hall to continue with the party, she suddenly tiptoed with one foot
and wrapped around his neck with both arms to kiss him on his lips.
Her sudden kiss stunned Manuel.
Both their hearts started running wild at that moment.
From then on, everything between them had changed.
