Chapter 1322
“Okay, after you make sure when you are free, tell me,” Calvin said.
After Calvin left, Hanna had a little lapse of concentration and didn’t realize it until her phone rang. Shelly’s voice came from the phone, and she sounded anxious. “Hanna, is that man in the restaurant today your boyfriend, that liar?”
“I didn’t say he was a liar, did I?” Hanna rubbed her ears in embarrassment.
“Anyway, he is the man you mentioned to us, right?” Shelly asked.
“Yes, he is.”
“Are you really taking him as your boyfriend? Do you know his full name or anything about him?” Shelly always thought it was too risky, though Calvin was really good-looking.
“We just pretend to be in a relationship. It’s fake. He must have some reason, and he also said that he would not do anything that breaks the rule. In addition, he told me his general information today,” said Hanna.
“That’s just some sweet talk. Do you really believe it? That’s the sweet talk all the playboys may say. Don’t you know it?” Shelly was worried that Hanna would be fooled again because she was naive.
“Yes, yes. I’ll be careful. If he really breaks the rule, I will immediately draw a line with him,” Hanna promised in a hurry. “By the way, how’s your blind date going after I left?”
“Well, it went as it should be. We said goodbye to each other and left after lunch. The world is too small. I didn’t expect to meet Lorin there, but his attitude towards you today… was a little strange. Do you think so?” Shelly spoke out her conjecture. “I mean he may still have a little…
“A little what? Do you mean he has feelings for me?” Hanna chuckled. “I had long been held as an object of ridicule when I was still a college student. If Lorin really had feelings for me, he would have a lot of opportunities to stand out and throw a few words to defend me at that time, wouldn’t he? But he didn’t. Now, so many years have passed. Do you think it is possible that he developed feelings for me?”
Shelly had no words to retort. She asked after a while, “Do you still have feelings for him now?” She was afraid that Hanna started the fake relationship in an attempt to get rid of her feelings for Lorin.
“No, I have no feelings for him at all. Maybe I was not so sure about it in the past, but I am pretty sure about it after I saw him again today,” Hanna said.
Today, when Hanna saw Lorin, she was shocked, but she surprisingly found that the deep hatred towards Lorin had gone and she seemed to have let it go. In addition, she felt the whole thing was a little funny.
Hanna wondered why she fell in love with Lorin back then. That’s why she felt it was funny. At that time, Lorin was like a prince on campus, but she was just an ordinary girl.
Hanna and Lorin were in different departments when they were college students, so they shouldn’t have had the chance to know each other. But Lorin suddenly approached her and began to ask her out and give her gifts.
In fact, if Hanna had been perceptive enough, she should have found that Lorin didn’t like her at all. When they hung out, Lorin was always absent-minded, and as for the gifts Lorin gave her, they, without exception, were just something she didn’t like. Hanna wouldn’t take it to heart if only a few of them were something she didn’t like. She could tell that Lorin had never tried to know what she liked.
But at that time, Hanna was immersed in a beautiful dream that she would be another Cinderella and thought she would be as lucky as th female lead in those comic books.
But in the end, she desperately found that she was just a cannon fodd
When Hanna was in the corner of the library one time, she accidentall heard Lorin talking to another girl. “You bet with me and asked me to chase Hanna. I did it. If you don’t like her, I can help you deal with her. So what about you? When will you do your part and become my girlfriend?”
This sentence shattered Hanna’s self-esteem and love for Lorin.
“Okay, I want you to dump Hanna in public and make her a laughingstock in the whole school. If you do it, I’ll be your girlfriend.”
“Okay, don’t forget your words!”
At that time, when Hanna heard this, she should break up with Lorin or viciously record Lorin’s talk with that girl and expose it so that people would blame Lorin and that girl.
But at that time, Hanna was still immersed in her fantasy and always thought Lorin should have a bit of feelings for her, so she still went to meet Lorin in the vain hope that Lorin would not hurt her.
But in the end, she underestimated how heartless a man could be and became a laughingstock of the whole school.
The romance with Lorin brought Hanna nothing but trauma in the end.
The trauma became less painful over time. “Don’t worry, Shelly. Lorin is just a past story. If there is one thing in my heart when I saw him now, that is just deep disgust. And that disgust intensified when Lorin grabbed my hand today.”
“That’s good.” Shelly breathed a sigh of relief.
After finishing the call, Hanna looked through her phone’s address book and saw “Calvin”.
Hanna still felt the whole thing was a bit ridiculous. She had a boyfriend now.
Moreover, Calvin agreed to serve as a model to help Hanna finish her painting, which Hanna took as a reward.
The next day, Hanna texted Calvin her timetable.
Two days later, Hanna had her first date with Calvin.
“Well… Do we need to do something?” Hanna asked. After all, the only experience she had about a date came from her relationship with Lorin.
“You can do whatever you want,” Calvin said lightly. Although he was still wearing a cold look which might alienated others, what he said was enough to cause other people’s reverie
Hanna thought in shock, “Please. Don’t you know that it is easy for others to misunderstand you when they hear what you said just now? People with bad intentions might have…”
Hanna filled her mind with all kinds of erotic images.
“What’s wrong?” Calvin’s voice sounded abruptly.
Hanna was jolted out of her reverie. She blushed. “Well, nothing. I’m just thinking that if you don’t mind, we can go to the comic bar I often go to.
We can see comic books there. By the way, do you see any comic books? If you are not interested, we could consider something else.”
“Do you often go there?” Calvin asked.
“Yes, it’s both an interest and a need for work,” Hanna answered.
“Okay, let’s go there. Anyway, we have to know each other better.” Calvin was well aware that he had to know more about Hanna, Otherwise, Rosalie would easily see through his fake relationship with Hanna.
Since Calvin had chosen such a fake relationship, he had to do his best to act and make Rosalie believe that he really had let go of his feelings for her and moved on.
Calvin only hoped that Rosalie would not worry about him after she saw that he had started a new relationship.
The comic bar Hanna mentioned was located in the west district of the city. There were many comic books and private boxes equipped with computers for Internet access.
