“Miss Moore, you’re sharp.


    Let’s make a deal,” Melina proposed, her words tinged with calction.


    Sensing Melina’s intent, Hannah shed a knowing smile.


    “What’s amusing you?” Melina asked sharply.


    Hannah replied, “I suppose you’re going to tell me that if I leave Bryson, you’ll ensure the Glyn family doesn’t harm the Mitchell family anymore, right?”


    Though caught off guard, Melina remainedposed.


    “That’s the gist.


    So what?”


    Even without seeing, Hannah could feel Melina’s arrogance.


    “Miss Glyn, you’re set to marry Tyshawn.


    But if the Glyn family is against the Mitchells, where does that leave you?”


    Melina’s expression flickered, hinting at a shift in her demeanor.


    Hannah pressed on, “Got any other ideas, Miss Glyn?”


    “I am I, and the Glyn family is the Glyn family!” Melina scrambled to find a justification.


    “We don’t want to upset the Garza family, but if you agree, I might be able to persuade my parents.


    ”


    This wasn’t the first time Hannah had faced such a condition.


    “Sorry, can’t go along with that.


    It’s up to your Glyn family to make the call.


    If there’s a genuine conflict, it’s between the Mitchell family and the Glyn family.


    I won’t meddle.


    ”


    Seeing Hannah stand her ground, Melina gritted her teeth.


    “Hannah! Are you just going to watch the Mitchell family suffer? You can’t do that! Aren’t you with Bryson? Doesn’t it matter to you if something happened to the Mitchell family?”


    Lifting her eyebrows in a mimicry of Melina, Hannah challenged, “Bryson is Bryson, and the Mitchell family is the Mitchell family.


    Miss Glyn, save your breath.


    I won’t budge no matter what offer you throw my way.


    ”


    Melina’s hands trembled with rage, her frustration palpable.


    Realizing Hannah wouldn’t yield, Melina relented.


    “Fine, have it your way.


    Just don’te crying to meter!”


    With a sharp turn, Melina stormed off, Tyshawn trailing behind.

    Alone in the car on the ride back to the Glyn estate, Melina punched in a number on her phone.


    “That stubborn woman refused, no matter what I said.


    She’s not giving up on Bryson! Looks Like she won’t let him go easily.


    She’s a tough one; that’s for sure.


    And it’s not because I didn’t try!”


    Melina’s cheeks flushed as she listened to the response on the other end of the line.


    Then she said into the phone, “The Glyn family’s got your back.


    But for Hannah, let’s brainstorm other options if we can!”


    Smack!


    After mming the phone down, Melina tossed it aside!


    Seriously? Who did he think he was, saying she hadn’t done anything?


    ncing angrily at the phone, Melina muttered, “You better not let that woman, Hannah, get away with anything! Prove yourpetence!”RêAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only


    In the old mansion, the butler offered apologies to Hannah.


    “I’m really sorry, Miss Moore.


    Won’t ever happen again.
