Ignoring her question, Bryson motioned to the car’s open door.
“Step inside; we’ll chat there.”
Watching Hannah poised to enter Bryson’s vehicle, an uneasy sensation overtook Declan. He blurted out, “Hannah! Why are you getting in his car? What’s the nature of your bond with him? Why this continual dance of closeness?”
With an amused, almost incredulous look, Hannah retorted to Declan, “Last I checked, we parted ways ages ago! Whoever’s car I choose to enter, who I associate with, is no concern of yours!”
Eliana, with a hint of mischief, advised, “Miss Moore, perhaps Limit your visits here? We wouldn’t want Mr. Mitchell to misconstrue and think you’re still pining for Declan.”
Hannah shot a frosty glance towards Eliana.
Bryson chimed in, “She’s not in Declan’s league. She isn’t one for playing both sides. Avoid gauging others by your own grand gestures and actions. Not everyone dances to the same tune as you.”
Eliana, feeling like a mouse caught under the unrelenting gaze of an eagle, darted behind Declan, unwilling to face Bryson’s intense eyes.

“Okay.”
Bryson shifted his focus and joined Hannah as they got into the car.
As the sports car roared away, Declan, damp with nervous perspiration, stared after it, his heart pounding like wild drums, taking moments to catch his breath.
Eliana nibbled her lip, pivoting toward Declan.

“How could that be possible?! That’s absolutely absurd!” Declan vehemently rejected the notion.
“I’m simply disgusted that she abandoned me to latch onto a wealthy man!”
Eliana elaborated, “Maybe Miss Moore has grown accustomed to a life of luxury and is reluctant to revert to her previous existence. It’s somewhat comprehensible.”
Accustomed to a luxurious life?

Declan’s fist clenched in frustration. Hadn’t he offered her 20% of the company shares? What more did she desire?! Couldn’t she be content!
Inside the racing car, Hannah swiveled her head to face Bryson.
“What’s so urgent that you had to find me?”
“Am I not allowed to seek you out even when it’s not an emergency?”
Hannah gazed at Bryson with a faint furrow in her brow.
“You can, However. Didn’t you mention you were searching for me due to an urgency? Wait.”
