She’s just a whore!”
Upon hearing this, Keith tightened his hold on Johanna’s throat!
Before long, Johanna’s complexion turned ashen.
Her hands hung Limply.
Recognizing that the situation was spiraling out of control, Brayden was fearful of a calamity unfolding. He rushed forward to intervene.
“Both of you, calm down first! Edwin, keep an eye on her. I’ll take them out for now!”
The commotion subsided and Brayden escorted Keith and Trent outside.
“Take it easy. We should wait for her family to arrive first. Acting recklessly now might lead to more trouble down the line.”
“Are we supposed to be afraid of her family? In this country, the Compton family won’t be outdone by the White family,” Keith retorted icily.
“Keith, let’s stay level-headed.” Trent, with a more composed demeanor, spoke calmly.
“Hannah is also part of the White family. If you target the White family, she’ll be caught in a dilemma.”

Recognizing Brayden as Bryson’s associate, Trent concurred with a nod, “Alright, we’ll await the arrival of the White family. Keith, let’s return for now.”
As they departed, Brayden breathed a sigh of relief. He turned back and pushed the door open.
Edwin sat off to the side and greeted him when he noticed Brayden’s entry.
“Her mother phoned a moment ago and mentioned she’d be here shortly.”
“Understood.”
Brayden cast a glance at the visibly deflated Johanna.
As he prepared to address her, his phone chimed with an incoming call.
Once the door was closed, he answered the call.
“What’s the matter?” he inquired.
