“Miss Moore is truly impressive. With Mr. Mitchell backing her, it’s no surprise she’s part of such a prestigious event.”
“She’s merely flaunting herself! You got lucky once, but be cautious now, especially in such a serious race. One misstep could cost you!”

Hannah’s gaze shifted to Declan.
“Remember, I own 20% of Edwards Group. If I decide to sell, you know the fallout.”
“Damn it, Hannah!”
The mere mention of company shares immediately soured Declan’s face.

Hannah’s eyes grew cold.
“I restrain myself solely for Allison. So if you can’t rein in Miss Edwards here, don’t blame me for losing my manners.”
