Hurst’s expression shifted immediately. He signaled his suited assistants.
“Boss, we confiscated their phones as soon as they entered the car.”
The guy beside him passed over the cell phones belonging to Hannah and Bryson.
Hurst nodded, then turned to Hannah with a smile.
“Miss Moore, sometimes it’s wise to be more practical.”
As she glanced at the phones on the table, Hannah was torn between mocking Hurst for his foolishness or simply chuckling at his innocence.
Hannah remained silent. Out of the blue, Bryson chimed in, “All this trouble just for this?”
Hurst turned his gaze toward Bryson.
“What are you getting at? You don’t need to pretend you’re clueless. Sign this contract, and I’ll ensure you both can leave here unharmed. But if you refuse…”
Before he could finish his sentence, approximately ten well-dressed bodyguards appeared in the room.
“I can’t say what might happen.” He finished his threat.

“Looks like I don’t have much choice but to sign, huh?”
Hannah fixed Hurst with a chilly stare.

“Hurst, it’s not too late to change your mind. After all, your legs were recently injured. If something serious occurs this time, I’m afraid you’ll have to leave lying down.”
“Are you threatening me?” Hurst’s wicked eyes scanned over Hannah’s visage, and he broke a malicious grin.
“I’m rather intrigued to see who’ll end up on their back first.”
He gestured to the men behind him.
“This woman is of no use to me.
Take her away and have fun. Do whatever you please, but make sure to eliminate her afterward.”
“Yes, sir.”
In response to his command, the men shared glances and selected two individuals to step forward and approach Hannah.
Just as the two were nearing the sofa, their hands extending to grasp Hannah’s shoulders, the pen’s tip ruthlessly plunged into one of their hands!
“Ah!!” The individual with the injured hand let out a piercing scream, clutching his wounded hand in agony.
