“I wasn’t in the dressing room!” she said nervously.
“When did I say you were? I only asked if you were eavesdropping.”
Eliana’s head was buzzing, her eyes darting back and forth in a panic.
“Well, I didn’t eavesdrop! I-I saw you rehearsing, that’s it!”
The corners of Hannah’s Lips lifted in amusement.
“We haven’t even started the rehearsal yet. I was going back to the dressing room because I forgot something. What sort of rehearsal did you see, exactly?”
“I… I…” Eliana was slowly spiraling into hysteria. She shuffled back and away from Hannah, but the latter followed her step by step.
Eliana’s heart was stuck in her throat. What if Hannah exposed her?
“It doesn’t really matter whether you admit to eavesdropping on us or not,” Hannah said lightly.
“Just be sure not to get caught next time, or I’ll teach you a lesson then.”
With that, she passed by Eliana and strode away without a backward glance. Eliana finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She stared at Hannah’s back, her eyes blazing with hatred. That stupid bitch!

Meanwhile, as soon as Eliana was out of earshot, Hannah took out her phone and called Lydia.
“I bumped into her just now. She was absolutely terrified.”
Needless to say, Lydia didn’t get into any rehearsal down at the banquet hall. She just sat in the corner and waited for Hannah’s updates.
When she heard the report, she burst out laughing. She would have kept laughing, too, if she didn’t feel a tap on her shoulder.
“Don’t you think you’re cackling too much?”
She turned to find Brayden standing behind her with a warm smile on his face.
“Come to the banquet hall,” Lydia said to Hannah.
“The party is going to start soon. You can’t miss a single thing!”
She hung up the phone and stared at Brayden.
“Aren’t you afraid of the rumors that would fly if people saw you talking to me at this time?”
“I’d like to see who would dare start a rumor! You are my girlfriend.
Even if I didn’t have any evidence to condemn the Shaw family, I would have come to take you away, anyway! I’d die before I let you marry that bastard, Alick Shaw!”
