Chapter 17
Hannah’s tears stopped. Her hands fell helplessly to be sides as she stared at Keanu and Seamus in confusion. She didn’t understand why their attitude toward her had changed so suddenly,
Whenever she cried previously, they were always the first to rush to her side. Now, they showed nothing but indifference. It seemed as though even if she cried herself dry, they wouldn’t be moved in the slightest.
Of course, Hannah didn’t dare to own up to how she’d provoked and framed Vanessa. She kept her mouth tightly shut about her wrongdoings,
Instead, she desperately pleaded with Seamus, “I didn’t do anything. Please believe me. Vanessa has helped me so much. You can’t imagine how grateful tam her. How could I mistreat her or harm her in any way? if she’s the one that you love, L. I’ll move out…”
Hannah forced out more tears, doing her best to look pitiful as she went on, “Could it be that Vanessa didn’t like me moving in? She started disliking me all of a sudden before. Maybe it’s the same this time..”
Hannah was still trying to manipulate them. Seamus had always matter pass

ragain. Vanessa was just lucky because she met them 20 years earlier than Hannah did. If she had had such a privileged background, she would have never wasted it the way Vanessa had
Unfortunately, Seamus didn’t let her oft that easily this time. He let out a derisive chudde, and his lips curled into a mocking smirk.
“you just never leam, do you? Anyone who knows he is aware that I’m not as easygoing as you think,” Seamus said with a sneer.
With that, he slammed Hannah’s head onto the table and gripped her neck tightly.
The next moment, Keanu’s voice crept into her ears as he uttered those nightmarish words that Hannah dreaded the most. “You’re fired, Hannah. I’ve informed your family, so they’ll probably come after you very soon. You’d better start thinking about how you’re going to deal with them.”
with a few taps on his phone, Keanu had effortlessly sealed her fate.
“No! Don’t let them come here! I’ll tell you everything!” Hannah cried out in terror
The fear of losing everything was far worse than the pain of suffocation. She was absolutely teritied the intense fear she was feeling could almost drive her
Insane!
Upon hearing this, Seamus slowly released her neck. He simply commanded, “Speak”
Coughing and gasping for air, Hannah stammered, “L. I can show you my phone)”
She unlocked her phone and handed it over. She emphasized her innocence as she said, “I didn’t do anything You’ve misunderstood me.”
Inwardly, she felt a wave of relief. She was glad that she had the foresight to delete all the taunting messages she had sent Vanessa beforehand.
Keanu didn’t bother to take her phone. He merely glanced at it and knew that Hannah hadn’t given up hope yet and was still putting on an act
Without hesitation, Seamus grabbed Hannah’s phone and sent It to a technician to recover all the deleted data.
When Hannah realized what was happening, it felt like her world was collapsing. She grabbed Seamus‘ arm and pleaded desperately, “No.. Please Please don’t recover the data. ”
But this time, neither keanu not Seamus gave her any more chances, she’d been given plenty already, but she’d squandered them all.
Kran promptly instructed his team to investigate all of Hannah’s Interactions with Vanessa over the past few months,
