A Film Queen

Chapter 399

Anyway, the only person who knows what just happened besides Hannah was that penniless Charlie. She had made herself clear earlier, if Charlie were smart, he wouldn’t dare to oppose her.

So, Hannah could say whatever she wanted now. At worst, after William left, she would stay and keep an eye on Charlie, pretending that they did the task together.

After all, she was rich. Her family could always compensate him extra later, so he wouldn’t be taken advantage of for nothing.

In Hannah’s eyes, Charlie was the one getting a good deal. He should be grateful.

Hannah straightened her back and smiled gracefully. “Yes, since you guys weren’t around, someone has to prepare the seafood for dinner, right? So Charlie and I volunteered to do it!

William believed her and gave her a thumbs-up.

“Amazing! I didn’t expect a girl like you to know how to handle seafood.”

Hannah felt even more delighted as he praised her. She slightly tucked her hair behind her ear and accepted the compliment graciously. “Yeah, I’ve always liked cooking, so this isn’t difficult for me.”

William nodded, then looked at her with curiosity in his eyes. “Hey, could you show me how to handle an oyster then? I always eat them but I never knew how they were prepared. Show me how it’s done, do you need to cut it open?”

Hannah’s face stiffened as she looked at his curious eyes.

She took a glance at the oysters on the ground, the seafood’s stench still lingering in the air.

Ugh.

She held back her disgust and said with difficulty, “Sorry, I’m not feeling well. I’ll make a move first, I’ll show you when I have a chance later.”

After that, she immediately turned around and fled the scene.
