FreeNovelFaustina was visibly irked.
She was choked by her words.
"What do you mean by that?” "I meant it, word per word.
Hannah pointed at Maloney across from her.
"I barought Mr.
Pierce back hlast night.
Are you blind? He's right there in front of you! If you're having vision issues, I'll even foot the bill for an ophthalmologist.
"You!" Hannah's retort made Faustina stomp angrily.
Joselyn sneered, “Don't act so innocent! You know exactly who we're talking about.
Mr.
Pierce wasn't the only guy in your house last night.
The bodyguards and our entire organization practically scoured the banquet hall for the guy who fired the shots, but they cup empty-handed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtInterestingly enough, we got a tip that a man entered your villa last night.
Care to explain yourself?" Hannah, leaning back, nonchalantly replied, "It's funny you should mention that, Joselyn.
I spotted a man entering your place last night.
You should be the one we should be investigating here.
What's your excuse?" "Bullshit! No one set foot in my house last night.
" "You're the one who's talking bullshit around here.
Why are you doing this, huh? What, do you honestly think that everything you say is the absolute truth?" Hannah maintained her cool and continued, "I get it, Joselyn.
I ruined your little plan last night, but did you really have to send your troops to stir up a ruckus in my house this early?" A flicker of panic crossed Joselyn's eyes.
She snapped, "What the f@ck are you blabbering about now? Ruined my plan? Quit making things up!" "Am I?" Hannah grinned wickedly.
"Last night, when I brought Mr.
Pierce home, something was off with him.
You were so keen on taking him home.
Did you pull something on him?" Joselyn panicked and cut her off, "Enough with the nonsense! Whatever that was, I had nothing to do with it.
All I wanted was to escort Mr.
Pierce.
Is that so terrible? Not everyone is like you, Hannah~ always scheming.
You even brought him to your place.
Givea break!" Faustina chimed in, “Exactly! I have to admit that you actually have a scheming mind, Miss Moore.
Seeing something fishy with Mr.
Pierce, you just had to bring him home.
" "Should I have let Miss Compton taketo her hif Hannah hadn't broughthere?" Maloney set down his fork and knife, scanning the room.
His smile, though present, failed to reach his eyes.
"I'm Hannah's fiance.
What's the big deal if she broughthome? Or are you suggesting I need your blessing for that?" Joselyn looked flustered.
"N-No... I didn't mean it that way, Mr.
" Pierce.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Mr.
Pierce, please understand,” Faustina chimed in, standing next to Joselyn.
"We're not here to give you a hard time.
A witness mentioned seeing a man entering Miss Moore's villa.
"1 "I'm the only guy in her place.
If you're so sure that there's a second man, then where is he? don't see e him anywhere," Maloney sneered. "Causing a ruckus in Hannah's house so early in the morning.
Don't you have a better use of your time?" Maloney's mockery annoyed Joselyn.
"Mr.
Pierce, we trust you, but this guy might have slipped into Miss Moore's house without you noticing. We're just looking out for you," Joselyn explained.
Faustina added, "Exactly.
If this guy did sneak in and cause harm to you and Miss Moore, we'd be op the hook for it. Miss Moore is in a different league now that her identity has changed.
Plus, our boss personally told us to hunt down the suspect.
We gotta fulfill our mission.
So please cut us sslack, okay?" Bryson had already made his exit, and searching for him would be a wild goose chase.
