Her Seven Little Bodyguards

Chapter 108

Sure enough, Hanson didn’t get to see the entire message, only the words ‘Mommy’ and ‘Pick you up’.

However, they were already enough for him to guess that Vania’s son would be coming to pick her up.

It had been some time since he last saw the little guy. Who would have thought he’d suddenly miss him upon seeing the message.

He devised a plan at that and instructed Larry with some tasks, who then left with his car.

For the rest of the event, Hanson no longer teased Vania. Instead, he conversed normally with her, and she eventually felt more at ease.

The event finally came to an end after five hours of judging.

After much deliberation, the judging panel ultimately gave the spot to Bella, who won first place during the audition.

Though she still needed a lot of polishing, she was still the best among these contestants. Surely she’d perform even better if given proper training.

At that, the presenter announced on stage, “The winner is… Bella Godwin!”

Off-stage, the other contestants clapped for her, some genuinely while others not so much. Either way, they all didn’t stand a chance for now.

A thrilled Bella pinched her arm, fearing that she was only dreaming and this would all be gone when she woke up.

Finally, she walked on stage to the sound of music a while later, patting her thumping heart.Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

She was so thrilled that she thought her heart would jump out, and her eyes were pooling with tears of joy as well. Then, she looked toward the audience and kept her eyes on Hanson specifically before she gave her acceptance speech. “I’d like to thank the judges and everyone who had supported me. I will continue to do my best,” she said.

Finally, one step closer to Hanson. Will I have the chance?

Hanson, however, never even spared Bella a glance.

It had merely been her wishful thinking.

Bella came out right after the event ended and lingered at the exit.

Hanson would have to pass by this place if he wanted to leave. Hence, she had planned to bump into him here.

She even thought about what she would say the moment they met.

Just thinking of the fact that they were about to meet face-to-face got her super nervous, and the excitement and smile on her face could not be concealed.

Very quickly, Vania and Hanson came out one after another.

With that, Bella patted her thumping heart and took a deep breath before feigning surprise, greeting, “Hi there, Miss Greyson and President Luke. I’m Bella Godwin. Thank you so much for your support.”

Seeing it was the winner they had just awarded, Vania smiled warmly and somewhat considerably before saying, “Keep up the good work.”

With that, she strode ahead. Her precious baby boy was still waiting in the car, after all.

Meanwhile, Hanson tried to catch up to Vania when he saw her leaving. When he passed Bella, he never even thought about sparing her a glance, let alone giving her a word of encouragement.

Bella didn’t expect Vania to be this cold or Hanson to be aloof as rumored.

She stomped her feet with unyielding conviction when the two passed by her so plainly. What am I, invisible?!

She considered herself to be as beautiful as Vania, but why wouldn’t Hanson look at her?

Alas, she could only gawk at his leaving figure.

Meanwhile, Vania got to her car and went in, but lo and behold, Hanson entered the next second. This startled the woman, and she looked at him with incredulity.

To that, he explained carelessly, “Larry left with my car. You can’t expect me to walk home when it’s already this late, can you?”
