Chapter 1075
Heather went upstairs while Hannah took the empty bowl to the kitchen. She turned on the tap and
cleaned the bowl with a cloth. She took her time cleaning it thoroughly.
After she finished, she placed it back in the cabinet and took one last look at the kitchen before walking
toward her small bedroom.
Hannah’s bedroom in the basement was very dark and quiet, but she was used to this environment.
She sat in a corner where a small amount of sunlight was available. The sunlight shone on a small area
close to her toes. She could feel the warmth of the sun if she just stretched her feet, but instead, she
chose to sit with her knees bent and her toes curled together. She was so close to the sun yet did not
dare reach out for it.
Her arms were around her knees, hugging them as one of her hands played with the distorted ring she
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthad. Hannah had found her ring, even though it was not how it used to be.
Nothing truly belonged to her in this world, not anything or anyone. She should not have hoped for it,
and she should not have been greedy. Unfortunately, she was only human. How could a human not
have any desires or wants?
Heather entered her room upstairs, closed her door, and drew the curtains shut. Then she took out a
box from her pocket.
She opened the box and revealed the book inside. She felt as though her heart were about to jump out
of her chest because she was so excited and her heartbeat was so rapid.
She wanted to open the book immediately, but as her fingertips touched the cover page, she was so
nervous that she started shaking. She had wanted this for the longest time, and now it was in her
hands. She could not describe the happiness that she was feeling.
As she turned the pages and studied the words and pictures inside greedily, she could not help but feel
impressed by them. They were all skills that she had never seen before. Still, Alexander told her such
skillful fighting stances did not exist-what a hypocrite!
Heather scoffed disdainfully as her hands continued practicing the stances in the book. She was eager
to learn everything inside this top-secret kickboxing handbook. While she was practicing, her phone
rang. She tried to ignore it as she was absorbed in her own world.
However, whoever was calling was very stubborn. The phone kept ringing even after she had tried to
ignore it. She finally had had enough of the noise and walked over to say, "Hello!"
"Heather, I've found it. I have what you need," Ralph said smugly into the phone.
When Heather recognized his voice, she recalled that she had forgotten the promise between them.
She smirked and replied mockingly, "Really?"
"Aren't you happy?" He could tell that Heather did not sound as happy as he expected her to be. She
had changed, and he was interested in why.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHeather smiled and continued, "Of course, I'm happy! So... when are you going to hand it over to me?"
"Of course, I'll give it to you, just not now. We haven't exactly agreed on the issue we discussed before,
so why don't we meet and talk it through?"
Since he had what she wanted, everything would work according to his plan. He would use this as
leverage and increase his end of the bargain. Ralph did not plan to just hand it over to Heather easily.
He needed to make sure that she made him a good offer.
"Fine, how do you propose we do this?" As Heather talked to Ralph over the phone, her gaze did not
leave the book in her hands.
Ralph spoke into the phone with confidence, "Why don't we do it tonight, at 7 p.m.? Let's meet at the
hotel where we met last time. I have a suite there, so it would be safe for us to meet."
He paused and continued quickly as he was worried that she might hesitate, "Since this book is critical,
it would be dangerous if it fell into the wrong hands. Besides, we need a secure and quiet place to
discuss our plans in detail."
