Reserved by Tyshawn for the asion, only a handful of Mitchell Group members upied the premises upon their arrival.


    Malvina, previously engaged in conversation with Tyshawn, was visibly tensed at Hannah’s approach!


    “Why is she here?”


    Tyshawn’s gaze shifted towards the approaching figure, a hint of surprise flickering before his brows furrowed.


    Spotting this woman, his injured leg throbbed anew, a reminder of a wound not too severe but still irksome!


    Such humiliation was unprecedented for Tyshawn! His bandaged leg bore witness to his difort, adding to his displeasure.


    As Maloney and Hannah neared the dining table, Maloney greeted them with a smile and said, “Apologies for our tardiness, Mr.


    Mitchell.


    I trust it’s not an inconvenience.

    Tyshawn remained seated, his disdainful gaze sweeping over Hannah.


    “So, Mr.


    Pierce, are you acquainted with her too?”


    Maloney, with a smile, turned to Hannah and asked, “Is there an issue with that?”


    At that moment, Malvina, clinging to Tyshawn’s arm, interjected hastily, “Mr.


    Pierce, don’t be misled by her! She’s callous and indifferent, she’s hardly a virtuous person! Don’t be deceived by appearances, Mr.


    Pierce!”


    Hannah smirked coolly.


    “Thank you, I’ll take that as apliment.


    ”


    “You!”


    Flushed with anger, Malvina found herself frustrated by Hannah’s misinterpretation of her words.


    Maloney graciously pulled out a chair beside him for Hannah and said, “I understand her better than you, naturally.


    ”


    “You have no clue! This woman, she… Hiss!” Emotions running high, Tyshawn aggravated his leg wound, eliciting a wince of pain.


    “Thest encounter, not only did she attempt to steal from Malvina, but during the time when we were assaulted in the parking lot, she feigned ignorance!”


    Hannah arched an eyebrow.


    “If I had truly ignored it, we wouldn’t be here conversing now.

    Gazing at the faint scar on Malvina’s cheek, Hannah’s eyes gleamed with a cold edge.


    “Had it not been for me, your injury would’ve been more than a mere scr@pe.


    ”


    Shaken by Hannah’s words, Malvina trembled, memories of the parking lot altercation flooding back.


    Biting her Lip, her indignation palpable, she said, “Then why didn’t you drive us to the hospital when I requested it back then?”


    “I’m not your guardian, why should I save you only to be bossed around?”


    Hannah taunted with a raised brow, “You’re still alive, aren’t you? Sitting here in one piece.


    ”


    Tyshawn attempted to rise, only to be supported by his assistant.


    “Careful, boss!”
