Johanna queried.
“Perhaps… she’s not the person we all assume her to be.”
Johanna’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“Bainbridge! Have you been swayed by her? Changing your stance so quickly, aiding her cause?”
“I simply believe she may not be the villain you all make her out to be,” Bainbridge calmly concluded.
Johanna tugged on Christy’s sleeve, saying, “Check out Bainbridge.
That woman’s got him completely fooled!”
“She’s putting on an act. Jalen’s fallen for her charade, too! I won’t fall for her sweet words,” Christy remarked.
Unaware of the conversation below, Hannah reached the corridor outside her grandmother, Tinsley’s room. The butler was at the entrance, and he stepped aside to let her in.

Hannah knocked, and an aged voice responded, “Come in.”
Upon opening the door, she saw the grandmother she remembered, who now looked older but was still full of life.
Tinsley’s eyes brightened at the sight of Hannah.
“Please, sit down.
I’m aware you’re here because of your grandpa’s health, not for any stake in the family business.”

Nodding, Hannah said, “Exactly. I couldn’t care less about the White family’s shares. I’m just concerned about Grandpa’s well-being.”
“That guy from the Mitchell family sealed deals worth hundreds of millions just to help you earn the White family’s respect,” Tinsley noted.
With a nod and a smile, she added, “He’s a decent fellow.”
“Don’t worry, Grandma. I’ve no plans to become part of the White Group,” Hannah said firmly.
Reaching behind her, Tinsley brought out a wooden box along with a bunch of keys and handed them to Hannah.
“You should have had these long ago. They’re yours now.”
Confused, Hannah inquired, “Grandma, what are these?”
“These are the documents transferring your mother’s 10% shares, and my own 15% stake, all to you. Just sign on the dotted Line.”
Hannah was taken aback, on the verge of declining, when her grandmother continued, “These keys open your mother’s old villa. Your grandpa couldn’t bring himself to get rid of her possessions.
Everything is as she left it.”
