Chapter 530 Plans
They don't like each other? Yeah, right. Yelena looked at him and burst into laughter. "She doesn't think
you're worth her time, does she?"
"You're right. Not that part, but another. Cecelia has a lover abroad. She went on the date and kept the
fact that she was dating a secret from her parents. We agreed to ruin this matchmaking. We're not
going to anger either of our parents, but we'll make sure they know we're not a good match."
Okay, that's surprising to say the least.
"My folks are already looking into my relationships, so they'll find out about you soon enough. I kept
some distance between us to protect you. To make sure the act was genuine enough, I kept it a secret.
If you knew, you would have let it slip."
Oh, so he actually was protecting me. Yelena felt a little guilty, but she wouldn't admit to it. I don't want
to embarrass myself. "I get it, but aren't you worried I might let something slip now that I know?"
Hank was half amused and half annoyed. "If I don't tell you this, I might lose you." Keeping this a secret
from her was a mistake. If he knew Yelena could stir up so much trouble, he would've told her. Never
thought she'd be this silly.
"I know I'm a bit stupid, but don't say that out loud." Yelena scratched her head.

bothered about that.
"Fine. I… I was thinking about you, so I cried. I didn't mean it. You were so cold to me. And then I saw
Elspeth, so…" She looked at Hank with a puppy pout.
Hank couldn't scold her in this situation. He did keep a secret first. "Fine, I forgive you."
Yelena rolled her eyes. "What do you mean, you forgive me? It should be the other way around. If you
had told me, none of this would've happened." I thought he actually fell for someone else in mere days.
I thought he was a jerk.
"You wanted to break up with me first." Hank would never forget what she told him after she recovered
from the surgery. He did start this mess to get back at her, but she started it first.
One look was enough to make Yelena feel guilty. "I…" Left with no arguments, Yelena hung her head
low. "I'm sorry. I won't do it again."
"Will you break up with me again?"
Yelena shook her head quickly. "No. Unless…"
What? "Unless what?"
"No. I won't bring it up again." Yelena picked her words wisely this time in case she angered him.
Finally satisfied, Hank patted her head. Mysteriously, he asked, "Do you know what else you did
wrong?"
"What?" Yelena had no idea.
Hank looked at her clothes. It was a beautiful dress made of golden silk, and something flared in his
eyes. "Don't you see? That actor likes you." He wasn't staring at her with just lust. He wanted to start a
romantic relationship with her.
"But I just got to know him. There's no way he likes me. You're reading into it too much. We're filming
together, so of course we have to see each other a lot." Yelena thought Hank was just overreacting
because he saw the kissing scene. But I can't tell him that, or he'll get mad.
"I know guys." Hank shook his head. "I'm changing out the male lead." He had read the script and
thought it would help with Yelena's popularity. The only problem was the male lead. I have to change
him out.
"You're actually the investor?"
Hank took a deep breath. He was speechless. My god, she can be such an airhead.
Yelena didn't expect him to be the investor. She thought it was just a bluff.
"Everything you've starred in has my investment in it."

"I care about you more than you think." He paid more importance to her than she thought, yet she had
no idea about that. She kept doing as she pleased, ignoring his feelings. Sometimes she would say
things that angered him, but he chose her so he must endure it.
"I see. I was wondering why you suddenly fell for me. So that's the reason. So, there is no love at first
sight," Yelena muttered. She was processing the matter. This is unexpected.
"Don't ever doubt my love for you again, understand?"
Yelena blurted, "So how long have you been in love with me?"
Hank wrapped his arm around her shoulder and looked into her eyes. "Four years. Ever since you were
sixteen, I had fallen for you. Not a day has gone by where I don't miss you."
That was the same year she fell for Max. That was when Max healed her, so that was why she had a
great passion for him. She wanted to be with Max, no matter what. "Why do you like me then?" she
asked sheepishly. Back then, she was Max's admirer, and she wanted to know how it felt to be
admired. She too had a lot of admirers, but none of them were as good as Hank. And…
Oh, so that's what she's gunning for. He leaned closer and hissed, "Don't think you can make me do
whatever you want just because I'm telling you the reason I love you."
