Once seated in the vehicle, Edwin couldn’t resist delving into gossip about the relationship between Maloney and Hannah. “Hannah, what’s the story between you and Mr. Pierce?”
Edwin wasn’t the only curious one; Grace and Lydia were also intrigued.
“It’s a long story, I’ll spill the tea later,” Hannah replied.
“Huh?” Lydia shook Hannah’s arm. “Stop keeping us in suspense! You’ve been away for so long, and now you return with a fiance. Spill the teal”
Grace joined in, also shaking her arm. “Spill it! Did you kick my brother to the curb without telling us?”
Hannah shot Bryson a side-eye in response to Grace’s jab.
He remained cool as ice.
“This whole situation is crazy. I’ll spill the beans once we’re back home,” Hannah promised.
After that, her friends stopped bombarding her with questions.
The wheels rolled up to the White family’s villa, where the butler and some other servants were already waiting outside.
As the car stopped, the butler was excited to see Hannah step out.
“Miss Moore, you’re back! Mr. White has been eagerly awaiting your return!”
Hannah followed the butler into the villa, scanning the surroundings.
“How’s Grandpa doing?”
“He’s feeling better, all’s good,” the butler reassured.
The villa looked just as she remembered it, giving her a cozy feeling.
Hannah felt a weight lift off her shoulders as she stepped inside.
Indoors, Byrum was in the common area, chatting with Jalen.
The butler was thrilled. “Mr. White! Miss Moore is back!”
Hannah locked eyes with Byrum, who was beaming, and it brought a smile to her face.
