It went without saying that Hannah could not tell Helen she met Fabian at the Civil Affairs Bureau. She knew Helen would shower her with questions if she found out. By then, it would not be possible to hide anything from her. As for Xavier, Hannah really met him at an interview.
"Interview? So it was love at first sight?” Helen interrogated, "Are you telling me two presidents of a large corporation fell for a journalist at first sight? Are you kidding me?”
"It's a one-to-one exclusive interview. My company sent me to do an interview with them. But it's not easy to meet these two men, so I waited outside their companies for days. That's how I made an impression," Hannah said.
"Really? Just like that?" Helen asked, still not convinced.
"Yeah. Why would I lie to you?” Seeing her sister had almost bought the story, Hannah nodded her head furiously.
"What's with that look of yours? Do you think it was easy? I had to carry a big camera with me every day. Even the security guards were starting to be wary of me," she added.
Hannah pouted her lips and turned away as if she was angry.
"Alright, I believe you. I'm sorry," Helen quickly coaxed Hannah when she thought that she was losing it.
"Hmph!" Hannah played along and pretended to be angry.
"Are you sure you want to do this to me?" Helen asked cheekily with a naughty glint sparkled in her eyes. She dug her hand into the blanket and
tickled Hannah.
Hannah could never withstand even the slightest tickle. Helen knew just what she needed to do to get her sister to talk to her.
