Upon arrival, Hannah turned on her phone and received a prompt call from Lydia.
As she exited the plane and took the call, she remarked, “I’ve just touched down. How timely! Shall we plan for dinner tomorrow?”
“Dinner tomorrow? That’s not going to happen! My father’s about to drag me back home!”
“What?” Hannah’s brow creased a touch.
“Just take a breath and tell me where you’re at. I’ll get to you later. Is it the Mitchell family’s villa?”
Lydia’s voice sounded downcast.
“Yes, I’m trapped at the villa, and I’m too afraid to go out. It’s the one place my dad won’t send anyone. But I can’t stay trapped in the villa forever. Grace also needs to go out, and even though she has bodyguards with us, I’m still concerned.”
“Got it. Stay put. I’ll be on my way shortly.” Hannah’s response was swift.
“Okay!” Lydia’s tone carried a note of desperation.
“Please, be quick.
I’m here waiting for you.”
Once Hannah ended the call, Edwin was right there, ready to join.
“Hannah, I’m coming with you!”
Observing the concern on his face, Hannah placed her phone down and remarked, “Don’t worry. Grab your luggage, head home, and inform Grandpa that we’ve secured the land.”
“Not happening!”
Edwin firmly declined this time, paying no attention to Hannah’s words.

“Your back is still injured. What if you strain it with your actions? You know what? If I can’t go, you’re not allowed to go there either. Come home with me tonight, and I can go with you tomorrow.”
Unable to argue with Edwin, Hannah glanced at her phone. It was only 6 p.m.
“Alright, you can drop me off at the Mitchell family’s villa first, and then you can head back home, okay?”
Edwin pondered before conceding, “Alright, I’ll come back for you once you’ve handled your business there.”
“Deal.”
With that settled, Edwin and Hannah left the airport, where their driver was waiting to take them home.
Once in the car, Edwin instructed the driver to head towards the Mitchell family’s villa first.
Having observed Hannah entering the Mitchell family’s villa, Edwin finally departed with the driver.
