They couldn’t imagine their lives without him…After taking a deep breath, Hannah directly walked over to her father and sat next to him. She held his hand tightly. “Daddy, I’m truly sorry… There’s nothing I can do to help…”However, her father shook his head. “Silly child. What are you saying? Why are you apologizing to me? This isn’t something anyone can control…”Hannah didn’t say anything. Instead, she directly threw herself into her father's arms and hugged him tightly.Her father’s hug was very warm.She never wanted to let go.She didn’t dare imagine how it would feel if she couldn’t hug her father again.Mrs. Roland looked at them. It was heart-wrenching.She didn’t dare to imagine how she’d survive with her children if her husband were gone.She wondered if she’d ever get used to living without him.If it was possible, she wished she could die in his place…Hannah stayed in her father’s ward for a long time and only left very late in the evening.Meanwhile, her mot
After today, they might never see each other again. The thought of this made Hannah’s heart ache. She really wanted to continue studying here.She wanted to see Leon Batton’s face every day. Even if she had to do so from a distance, she already felt satisfied.From the moment Hannah started liking Leon, seeing him had become the happiest thing in her life. After thinking about it, Hannah realized that nothing would happen between them anyway.Anyway… They’d still have to part after they graduated from high school. Hannah had to learn to accept this fact and get used to it.Hannah kept waiting until the school bell rang yet she still didn’t see Leon. This made her anxious. Leon might not show up at all today…Beep, beep, beep…Right then, Hannah’s phone started ringing. She quickly picked the call up when she saw that it was from her mother.“You’re done with the school withdrawal process, aren’t you? Hurry up and come to the hospital. I need to head out for a while,” her mother
However, even so, Hannah and her family were happy enough.The next day, Hannah’s father and her brother were taken into the operating room together. The surgery lasted for three hours and was a success.Hannah’s father and her brother stayed in the operating room to be observed for a while. Once they were awake, they were brought into a ward together.The ward they stayed in was an ordinary ward with two beds. They each occupied a single bed.Hannah sat next to her father and looked after him while Mrs. Roland sat next to Hannah’s brother and looked after him.As Hannah’s father and brother had just come out of surgery, they were both very weak. They didn’t even have the strength to speak. They could only close their eyes and rest.Hannah and her mother were very quiet. They silently wiped Hannah’s father and her brother’s bodies with pieces of cloth.Although all four of them did not speak a word, they were all happy on the inside. That’s because the surgery was a success. Thi
“I heard from Hannah’s classmates that she had quit school…Hannah didn’t come to school for a very long time so they all became curious. But her teacher didn’t say much.“Finally, one of her classmates couldn’t resist asking out of curiosity today.“It turned out that Hannah had quit school. That’s not all. Hannah’s teacher even said she didn’t just quit school.“Hannah’s not even going to continue studying in other high schools,” Lynette explained.“I was worried you’d feel bad previously. That’s why I’ve been hesitating to tell you.“But now that I’ve thought about it, I realize I should tell you,” Lynette added.After hearing this, Leon felt empty.It was as if something that had been with him all along suddenly disappeared.Not only did Hannah quit school, but she even stopped going to other schools altogether. Why did she do that?“What happened to her?” Leon asked.“Hmm… I heard her father fell severely ill. They ran out of money to provide him with treatment.“Now, bo
Leon initially thought he would let fate decide.“Leon, what are you planning to do?” Lynette asked. She knew her brother well. If he didn’t care about Hannah, why would he want to financially support her? Wasn’t he doing it so that she could continue studying here? Didn’t it also mean Leon would get to see her every day?“Don’t get involved. I’ll handle it.” Leon replied.Beep, beep, beep—Right then, Leon’s phone started ringing.It was a message from Alex. “The competition starts at seven o’clock. There’s an hour left. Hurry up and come over after school…”When Leon saw this, he quickly walked toward the exit.Lynette also read the message, and she quickly followed him without saying anything. She didn’t have much to do today. Besides, it was Saturday tomorrow. She could finally follow her brother to the competition venue and watch him play.Right then, there were many students in the hallway. Everyone was rushing home. When they saw Leon and Lynette, they couldn’t help but
Everyone was in a great mood when they saw how adorable Lynette Batton was.Leon Batton glanced affectionately at his sister. “Sit somewhere close by, okay?”She nodded before walking to a nearby chair to sit down.Meanwhile, her brother headed over to his teammates and began to discuss the banning phase selections.Lynette sat quietly nearby, playing with her phone without interrupting nor bothering them as they discussed their strategy.Soon, the competition began, and Leon led his teammates backstage.There were tens of thousands of people in the stadium, with two-thirds holding lit Team XS banners, half of whom were also holding banners with S written on them.His teammates were all stunned to see that, each fighting to hold back their laughter.Only Leon remained indifferent as if it had nothing to do with him.The team was in all black, sporty team uniforms, with light makeup on their faces.At first glance, they looked like handsome idols from the entertainment industr
“I think I feel the same way, haha!" Commentator B said with a laugh. "Let’s wait for the results.”“To be honest, I have more confidence in their opponents’ selections,” Commentator A replied.“Yes, but Team XS will be powerless unless they can hold out until the later stage of the game,” Commentator B said.Meanwhile, the fans in the stadium were all making a lot of noise. None of them were too concerned despite being shocked at the chosen champions. After all, this was Team XS.The reactions were similar in the livestream channel.Soon, the competition began, and Leon Batton immediately took first blood by killing the enemy's Top Solo.The atmosphere in the stadium instantly became energized.The match heated up when three opponents headed to the Top Lane to attack Leon in retaliation.However, he faced them head-on with impressive reaction speed and high skill level, killing all three of them in quick succession.Everyone in the stadium went wild in the wake of S managin
The second match began shortly after.Team XS chose the same champions, and their opponents did the same with theirs, as they were reluctant to admit defeat.History repeated itself, and Leon Batton led his team to victory again.In the third match, both teams chose the same champions yet again.Both commentators were shocked when they confirmed their champion selections—“What’s going on? Why aren’t they banning the heroes Team XS is good at?”“Looks like the opponents are truly upset and probably refusing to admit defeat. That’s why they keep choosing the same champions for the rematch.”“I’d have banned Lucian if I were them.”Meanwhile, on the livestream channel—“Team XS’s opponents are so stubborn.”“What are they waiting for? They should ban Lucian.”“It’s just a disaster waiting to happen. They’re digging their own graves due to stubbornness. Hahaha!”Every player kept calm up on stage before Leon and his teammates began slaughtering their opponents as soon as the m
