But no matter what, he just couldn't approach Hannah as carelessly as Hayes Edwards, that fool.
Whether it was the man by Hannah's side or her admirers,
their social status was far above his own.
He was not content, but what could that discontent do? Hannah was right; he couldn't abandon everything, nor could he confess his love in front of the public without any care like Jackie Qualls.
His fans wouldn't allow it, and neither would the company.
He had never feared losing everything; he just feared that after losing it all, Hannah still wouldn't be willing to look back at him even once.
By then, he truly would have no capital to compete with anyone.
Regardless, he would never give up; he just needed time, just a little time and a turning point.
