He yelped, trying to shake off the grip!
Bryson’s face was all serious and he clamped onto Rhett’s wrist, giving him a frosty stare. “Do you really want to start something here?”
Rhett, wincing, glared up at Bryson. “Mr. Bryson! What’s it to you?! Butt out!”
Bryson smirked. “I’m just nosy, what’s your beef?”

Hannah couldn’t help it. She cracked up with her hand over her mouth.

“Rhett!”
Two voices called out as Remington and Elsa showed up with their entourage.
Elsa rushed to Rhett’s side, giving Hannah the stink eye. “What’s going on?”
Remington strolled over, spotting Hannah by Bryson, his eyes squinting in curiosity. “Miss Moore? What’s the scoop?”
“You’d best ask him.”
Hannah glanced at Remington, lifting an eyebrow coolly. “Mr. Lyons, your brother’s the one who is bullied here. Now even outsiders are giving him a hard time, and you’re not saving face at all,” she said as she chuckled.
