“Is there anything else?” Hannah asked.
Grimacing, Elin glanced at Omar before admitting, “Edwin is innocent!
It’s me who’s at fault. I plotted this to secure a marriage into the White family.”
Edwin, who had been shielding his face, looked up in disbelief.
“Haven’t I treated you well?”
“You never promised to marry me!” Elin retorted.
Biting her lip, she added, “I have to secure my future… Ever since she came into your life, you’ve barely even come to meet me! I… I felt cornered!”
Hannah, uninterested in their melodrama, waved her phone dismissively.
“Anyone else still willing to corroborate her claim that Edwin abused her?”
Edwin’s friends fell silent, their heads drooping.
“Very well, I’ll take him with me,” Hannah said, glancing at Edwin and gesturing for him to follow.
“And we’ll split last night’s bill.

As they exited the room, Omar hurried after them.

“Miss Moore, you’re quite adept. Managing such a tricky situation flawlessly. It’s clear why you’re the new biggest shareholder of the White Group.”
Hannah remained silent, continuing to walk alongside Edwin.
“Truth be told, if you hadn’t resolved the issue, I would’ve stepped in.”
Hannah paused and turned around to face Omar, her expression dripping with disdain.
“You would’ve stepped in? What would you want in exchange? Mr. Morrison, you are quite well-off. Can you stop being against me? I have no desire to have a conflict with your precious Miss Bailey. Let’s just put the past behind us and stay out of each other’s lives.”
Omar’s brows furrowed upon hearing Hannah’s lack of concern for Winona and his relationship.
“It’s true that our family has been tied to Winona’s family for generations. But I consider her just an acquaintance.”
Hannah shook her head.
“Mr. Morrison, you’ve got me all wrong.
Whether you two are close is irrelevant to me. I’m out of here.”
