His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel 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 had. 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.
