The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Christine stood there with a sullen face, and her carefully maintained nails pricked into her palms.

Christine thought, “Hanna is such an ordinary woman. How could Lorin fall in love with her?! He loved me at that time! But why does Hanna always hinder me? Just like many years ago when | was in high school, | joined a comic competition, but Hanna won first place and | got second place. | don’t want the second place!” If it was not the first place, then-Christine would rather not get it. So she withdrew her manuscript and stopped drawing comics.

For Christine, drawing comics was just a temporary interest and she didn’t regard it as her future career.

But later, in college, Christine met Hanna. She was still drawing comics and even publishing them.

Every time Christine saw her classmates praising Hanna's painting skills, she felt embarrassed. So she wanted to make trouble for Hanna and destroy her.

And what happened later was indeed as Christine expected.

Hanna became a person hated by everyone in school. Then Christine had no interest in Hanna anymore and stopped paying attention to her.

But Christine didn’t expect that Hanna not only became a cartoonist and had a comic adaptation but also was protected by Lorin.

Christine thought, “Since | could trample Hanna back then, | can do it again now!” “Lorin, you will regret it!” Christine murmured coldly.

After Shelly learned that Christine had sponsored the drama, she directly cursed. Then she looked at Hanna worriedly.

“Hanna, you...”

But Hanna smiled and said, “She is just one of the sponsors. What can she do to me? Can she tell the director and the producer not to add my name in the opening of the drama or ask to work on another comic adaptation?” “You're right,” Shelly murmured. “But Christine is vicious. Who knows what she'll do to you? She's really a psychopath!” “Indeed. She's really a psychopath,” Hanna nodded and agreed. “Anyway, just roll with the punches. Now that she has come to us, let's just face her. We're different from when we: were in college.” “Yeah, let's see what she can do!” said Shelly.

The next day, when Hanna went to the set, she met Christine again. Hanna stopped and looked at her alertly.

Christine stepped forward with a smile. “Hanna, | think there is ‘some misunderstanding between us. | sponsored this drama for nothing else but Lorin. You know that Lorin liked me when we were in college. But then he became an exchange student and we broke up. Since he was optimistic about this drama

and wanted to invest in it, | also wanted to help him.” “It's your and his business. You don't have to tell me about that,” Hanna said coldly.

“Why not? | remember that you were also quite into Lorin back then. But you couldn't get him back then, and now you still can't. | just don't want you to be hurt,” Christine said like a winner, waiting to appreciate Hanna's embarrassed and unwilling expression.

But Hanna just said calmly, “You really don’t have to tell me that. | already have a boyfriend. Be free to get him if you want Lorin. I have no feelings for him at all.” Christine's expression stiffened. “You have a boyfriend?” Hanna snorted and said, “Ms. Herst, you don't think I'm still into Lorin after so many years, do you?” Christine's gorgeous face was slightly distorted. She planned to embarrass Hanna, but now she was the one who was embarrassed.

At this moment, Lorin suddenly rushed over.

‘When he saw the two of them, he directly ran forward and said, “Christine, what do you want to do to Hanna? I've told you not to lay hands on her!” Christine said, “I just said hello to Hanna. What are you afraid of? By the way, Hanna also told me that she already had a boyfriend. Lorin, you've wasted your time.” Lorin’s expression changed slightly. “I know she has a boyfriend, so what?” Christine was slightly surprised.

Hanna didn’t bother wasting time on them and directly walked past them.

Lorin wanted to say something more to Hanna, but he also knew that it was inconvenient since Christine was here now, so he could only watch Hanna leave reluctantly.

Christine saw the reluctance in Lorin’s eyes clearly, which also made her feel jealous and unwilling.

Christine thought, “Why does the man who loved me back then love Hanna now? | can't even defeat Hanna? Which part of her

is better than me except for the skills of drawing comics?! But what's the use of being good at drawing comics? She can't make much money by that at all! Such an orphan is not qualified to compete with me!” “Lorin, | thought Hanna still loved you a lot. But | didn't expect... Haha...” Christine laughed mockingly. “It turns out that she already has a boyfriend. She seems to not take you seriously at all. But you've even fallen for her. So ridiculous!” “Shut up!” Lorin roared. His black eyes looked fierce, and he was like an angry beast that would pounce on someone and tear that person into pieces at any time.

Christine was startled by the fierceness in Lorin's eyes. He looked at her as if he was looking at an enemy instead of looking at his beloved like before.

“Even if I'm ridiculous, so what? | was already ridiculous when | joined hands with you back then! Christine, listen carefully. If you dare to lay hands on Hanna, | will definitely make you suffer!” Lorin threatened Christine.

Christine slightly shivered. Lorin’s expression and tone were

telling her that he really meant it. “Do... Do you love Hanna that much?” Lorin was silent.

Lorin thought, “Love? Maybe. But | don’t know how much | love her. The only thing | know is that | don’t want to make the same mistake as before and let this innocent woman get hurt again.” Christine slightly bit her red lip, suddenly stepped forward, and hugged Lorin. “Lorin, the one you love is me. You just feel pity for Hanna. You were willing to do anything for me at that time.

How could such love disappear easily? I'm by your side now.

As long as you want...”
