The capital injection seemed deliberate on Remington’s part.
How could it be rumored at home that a financial group’s daughter was smitten with Tyshawn?
It was well-known that the Lyons family members were forbidden from marrying outsiders.
Could this also be part of Remington’s scheme?
“Hannah, what are you thinking? Is something not right?”
Shaking her head, Hannah responded, “No, it’s nothing.
Just steer clear of the Mitchell family for
now.
I’m concerned it might cause trouble for you.
”
“Don’t worry.
The White family holds as much sway as the Mitchell family.
If we avoid provoking them, they won’t dare retaliate.
”
“That’s reassuring.
I called mainly to discuss this issue.
I won’t keep you from your gathering any longer.
We can talk more when I get home.
”
“Okay.
” Hearing this, Edwin smiled.
“Then I’ll meet you at the airport.
”
After ending the call, Hannahy down on her bed, rolling around infort.
With domestic affairs handled, she thought about her next move.
Her expression turned steely.
It was time to confront the Jade Paradise and drive out the Bloody Gang.
The following afternoon, Trent and Keith scheduled a meeting with Bryson at their cafe.
Keith and Trent arrived early, anxiously awaiting Bryson’s arrival.
“Let’s walk through our discussion points and check for any mistakes.
It’s important we don’t say anything out of line.
” Keith advised with caution.
Trent nced at Keith and asked, “Back in Cadilind, you seemed unfazed by Bryson.
Why do you seem increasingly anxious about him now that we’re in Newfort?”

Unashamed, Keith replied to Trent, “It’s not fear, it’s just being sensibly wary.
Don’t you find it peculiar that Bryson was invited to the gathering? At the six-family gathering, even the Chadwich family’s invitation came through the Comptons.
What makes Bryson an exception?”
Trent pondered then replied, “It’s pretty standard.
Remington and Bryson seem to have their own dealings.
Remington organized this event, so he gets to call the shots.
Inviting Bryson isn’t odd for him.
”
Keith pointed out an oversight.
“You’re missing the bigger picture.
Bryson was also there when the families united for business.
Doesn’t that strike you as odd?”
Trent was taken aback, recalling Bryson’s presence during their coborative discussions.
The Mitchell family was prestigious in Cadilind, and Bryson had numerous international ventures, but his involvement seemed beyond what would normally interest Remington.
As they grappled with these thoughts, a knock at the private room’s door interrupted them.
The waiter announced, “Mr.
Mitchell has arrived.

With the door swinging open, the waiter ushered in the guest.
“Mr.
Mitchell, right this way, please.
”
After Bryson entered the private room, the waiter exited and gently shut the door behind him.
He sat down opposite Trent and Keith, giving them a measured look.
“So, what’s the topic of discussion today?”
The irony of their previous conversation about Bryson wasn’t lost on them, leaving them momentarily disconcerted.
Trent recovered first, clearing his throat.
“We need to talk about Hannah.
”
At the mention of her name, Bryson’s rxed demeanor shifted slightly, his gaze sharpening.
“What about her?”
