Chapter 687: Hannah’s downfall
"I just wanted to clear the air, Erasmi. I couldn’t bear the thought of you thinking poorly of me." Hannah murmured as she held his hand earnestly, explaining how embarrassed she was for his mistake.
Hannah smiled earnestly as Erasmi stared at her. She’d planned this perfectly. She’d sent him an apology for mistaking his brother for himself and then asked him to apologize to Demetri and his wife as well, letting him know just enough that he would realise something had happened. And then he’d called, just as she’d anticipated, asking about her with concern, she knew she’d succeeded. After all, no man could resist her allure.
"Thank you for meeting me. I just wanted to make sure there were no hard feelings or misunderstandings between us or even between your family and you because of me. I value your friendship too much."
Erasmi smiled then,a slow smile that gave her butterflies. Somehow, she felt that he’d become even more attractive almost magnetic. " I understand, Hannah. But you need not worry, there are no hard feelings between my brother and me because of you."
She breathed a sigh of relief. "That is good then. I would have hated for you to have confronted your brother because of me." With that, she pretended to be shy and looked down, gently pushing her hair behind her ear in a soft motion.
Erasmi’s smile widened even more as he said," It is unbelievable."
She looked into his eyes then," What is unbelievable?"
She felt her heart race as she felt him tuck her hair behind her ear again and softly caress her cheek," Your beauty... It is unbelievable..."
Hannah shook her head as the scene suddenly entered her head and stared expectantly at him, only to not believe her ears when she heard his words," I find it unbelievable that someone can be so delusional."
