Shrugging her shoulders, Hannah adopted an innocent tone and said, “In business, profit is undoubtedly the top priority.


    Why would I choose Jeffry when I have a superior option? So, it’s not a big deal, right?”


    Joselyn was scrutinizing the contract and couldn’t help but challenge Hannah, saying, “Who are you trying to fool? You’re responsible for blowing up Jeffry’s base.


    Do you expect us to overlook that?”


    Hannah replied with an earnest smile, “The incident at Jeffry’s base is unrted to us.


    We were thoroughly searched before entering their facility.


    Plus, reports say it was an idental ammunition explosion.


    How could I possibly sneak into their ammunition under such tight security?”


    Hannah looked at Wace and said, “This is my inaugural negotiation representing the Compton family.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.


    If we hadn’t sealed the deal for cooperation and departed early, I might have been engulfed by the explosion at his base.


    So, I think you owe me somepensation for the trauma, don’t you think?”


    Wace struggled to maintain hisposure at Hannah’s audacity.


    Joselyn eximed, “How can you even think of imingpensation?!


    You are lying! You’re the one behind the destruction of Jeffry’s base!


    It exploded right after you left!”


    “Do you have proof of that?” Hannah’s gaze hardened as she addressed Joselyn, saying, “I get it.


    My return as Mr.


    Compton’s daughter poses a threat to you.


    Your dislike is expected.


    But if you keep spreading false rumors…”


    Hannah’s smile turned sly and said, “I won’t be so forgiving next time.


    ”


    Joselyn’s eyes red as she retorted, “Are you threatening me?”


    Hannah merely shrugged and replied with an easy smile, “Take it as you will.


    ”


    “I’ve got a witness! Bring him in!” Joselyn signaled subtly, and soon after, Lorenzo was escorted into the room.


    Lorenzo approached with due respect.


    “Greetings, Mr.


    and Mrs.


    Compton.


    ”

    “Lorenzo, what happened that day?” Joselyn prompted, looking smug.


    Lorenzo lifted his gaze to meet Hannah’s and cast his eyes downward, feigning uncertainty.


    He hesitated before speaking.


    “Regarding this… situation… I can’t cover for Miss Moore.


    Miss Moore left midway after receiving a call.


    We didn’t see her actions outside.


    When she returned, the deal had already fallen through… and shortly after we drove off, an explosion sounded behind us! Jeffry’s base had been destroyed!”


    Upon hearing Lorenzo’s words, Joselyn’s expression turned confident, as if victory was assured.


    She said, “Please, do exin.


    Did you manipte something while you were away?”


    Hannahughed at the usation.


    “Miss Compton, think about it.


    Jeffry’s guards were all around.


    How could I have possibly done anything? I didn’t want to make it too clear…”


    She took a moment to pause, raising her gaze to Lorenzo, who stood alongside Amelie.


    “He’s your guy, Mrs.


    Compton.


    It’smon knowledge that you sent him to spy on me, not to assist in negotiations.


    But he wouldn’t have joined me if I hadn’t wanted him toe along.


    Therefore…”


    Despite a hint of a smile in Hannah’s eyes, her tone remained icy as she stated, “If I had blown it up, would I have let him return unharmed and reveal my actions?”
