Chapter 1296

Hannah wasn’t particularly hungry, but seeing the message suddenly made her stomach grumble.

She was about to call the waiter when the sight of the man next to her instantly killed her appetite.

Steven had his eyes closed, but he seemed to sense her every move, “You’re finally awake.”

Hannah didn’t want to talk to him, but then he said, “You haven’t eaten anything in hours. Aren’t you hungry? Why aren’t you ordering anything?”

Why did he care if she was hungry?

Hannah said, “Mr. Dixon.”

Steven said, “Just spit it out.”

Hannah said, “Believe it or not, I’m going to clarify one thing. I didn’t deliberately snoop on your schedule, and it really is a coincidence that. I’m on the same flight as you.”

Steven chuckled, “Coincidence? You really believe in so many coincidences?”

Hannah rolled her eyes in annoyance, “Forget it if you don’t believe me.”

He shrugged nonchalantly, “You probably wouldn’t have been able to find out my flight, but finding out yours was a piece of cake.”

Hannah asked, “What do you mean?”

He looked at her with a ‘you’re-such-an-idiot’ expression, “I knew you’d be on this flight home, so I had my assistant arrange to sit next to

you.”

Hannah was speechless.

As she stared at him in shock, Steven reached up and playfully ruffled her hair, “After all these years, your IQ doesn’t seem to have improved.” Hannah slapped his hand away, “Why are you doing this?”

She should have seen this coming. She had been stupid.

He lifted a strand of her hair and twirled it around his fingers, “Because I’m afraid you’re being used without even realizing it.”

Hannah asked, “So you’re saying you’re helping me?”

Seeing her clumsy yet adorable reaction, Steven couldn’t help but feel amused, “What else? You think I have so much time and energy to deal with a small-time actress like you?”

His words hit her hard.

It really hurt!

Jared was the most popular actor at the moment; he had talent, he had fans, and he was the dream guy for many girls.

However, in the eyes of a businessman like Steven, Jared was just an entertainer, a small-time actor.

Like Jared, Hannah had talent, and she had fans. She was idolized by many. But to Steven, she was just an entertainer, a small-time actress, a dog without dignity.

Hannah said lightly, “Oh.”

Steven asked, “Oh? What are you thinking about now?”

Hannah said, “Well, thank you. But I hope you won’t interfere with my affairs in the future. I can handle them myself.”

Steven said, “You can handle them? Do you know what Jared and your assistant would have done to you if I weren’t here today?”

Hannah looked up at him as if she could have an equal conversation with him this way. “Why would you care what they’d do to me?”

Steven stated, “We’ve only been divorced for a short while, and you’re already so independent?”

Hannah, “President Dixon, do you remember that we’re divorced? I thought you’d forgotten.”

Steven said, “I haven’t seen you in over a month, and you’re starting to sound like Marc’s woman. I’d advise you not to hang out with her too much; she’ll be a bad influence on you.”
