What goes around comes around. That is a law nobody can escape from.
Hannah was in a really good mood, just like the pleasant weather outside.
The sky was blue, cloudless, and bright. The gentle late summer breeze played around, cooling down the heat of the sun.
"Miss Hannah, you look fabulous as always. What kind of service do you require today?" the image stylist asked flatteringly. He knew very well that she was pretty generous on the tips. It would be in their best interests to keep her satisfied.
"Not now. I need to pick a suitable dress first. I'll find you later," Hannah dismissed him. The stylist nodded and cleared the way for her. She looked around at all the clothes in the room. Her long fingernails were painted a sky blue and she swept her lean fingers across the beautiful, expensive dresses one by one. Her eyes full of smile, she asked, "Jenifer, which one do you think will be most suitable for my date with him tonight?"
Jenifer was wearing a business suit. She was still at work, when Hannah dragged her here to offer her some fashion advice, "Well, that depends on your purpose tonight." She already knew pretty well what her scheme was for the night; the smile on her face told everything.
Hannah turned back to her and had an even bigger smile, "What do you think my purpose is?"
Jenifer smirked with a knowing smile, "You're trying to knock the air out of Mr. Brian Long."
"Well yeah, I have to," said Hannah, rolling her eyes, "I've been looking forward to this day—the day when I finally make him mine and get rid of Molly forever."
Jenifer crossed her arms over her chest and leaned against the closet. She sneered, "Molly is as stupid as she was when she was young."
"But I like that about her," smirked Hannah, "I can play around with her as long as she stays stupid."
Jenifer totally agreed with that. But her eyes were filled with resentment, "But why do all these exquisite men fall for such a bitch?"
"Jenifer, she will lose everything very soon..." The smile on Hannah's face became sinister, "I'm going to make him fall in love with me this time. If she wishes to leave Brian so much, then I'll make her wish come true."
"Hannah, don't underestimate Mr. Brian Long," Jenifer warned her.
Hannah glanced at Jenifer and continued to pick her clothes, "Everybody just keeps warning me about how great Mr. Brian Long is and how I shouldn't take him lightly," she scoffed, "Even someone, as powerful as Brian, can't resist the power of the Love Poison," she said as an evil smile reached her eyes, "I'll be pregnant with his baby soon. I will bind him to me forever."
Jenifer stared at Hannah's evil smile for a while and then said, "Well then, I have nothing more to worry about. I wish you complete success."
"Thanks!" Hannah exclaimed without looking at her. She picked an off shoulder short skirt and scanned it up and down. The design was simple, but elegant. She thought it was the perfect skirt to impress Brian and it would greatly serve her purpose. She was fully satisfied with it. She asked, "Jenifer, would you like to try this on for Edgar, too?"
"No, that's really not challenging enough for me," Jenifer said slowly, "He, sooner or later, will be mine."
"Oh?" Hannah raised an eyebrow at her sudden self-confidence, "What makes you think so? Did something happen?"
