Author’s POV

The car door swung open and Clint stood by, waiting for Hannah.

Hannah stared at the building for some moments, and then her lips curled into a sinister smile.

Turning toward Clint, her expression suddenly turned stern.

The last thing she wanted was for him to blow her cover before she even had a chance to get her revenge on the store manager.

“I know Ethan sent you to look over me, but I’m going to need you to do as I say now, or we can forget about all of this.” Hannah declared.

Immediately, Clint’s gaze turned cold. He could tell that whatever Hannah was planning, she was up to no good.

However, seeing the stern look on her face and knowing that time was running out, he heaved a defeated sigh and gave in,

“What are you going to do?” Clint asked with concern.

Hannah’s face tinged with excitement, and she just turned and walked toward the entrance of the boutique wordlessly.

Entering the store, she walked humbly toward the luxury department, checking through d

    Author’s POV“What's going on here?” The store manager, Victoria asked with a stern look.“Ma'am this customer came in here asking to browse around the luxurious section of the boutique. I asked her to leave, but she wouldn't, insisting that she wanted to see our most expensive clothes in the store.” Lydia replied, her voice wavering, unable to look at Victoria directly in the face.“I was just about to call security to throw her out,” she quickly added, hoping to exonerate herself, but Victoria just ignored her with a wave of her hand. Her eyes shifted slowly towards the woman across the floor and slowly widened in shock when she realized who it was.“You!” The words escaped her lips.Immediately, a smirk tugged at the corner of her lips, and her former furious gaze softened into a malicious look.“Ma'am, what do you want to do?” Lydia's voice echoed softly, noticing the familiar look between the two.“Don't worry about it,” Victoria said, walking confidently toward Hannah. “I'll ha

    Author’s POVVictoria chuckled lightly, thinking this was some sort of ridiculous game, but when she saw the seriousness on Hannah's face, her smile faded slowly. “Have you gone mad?” Victoria hissed, her voice rising in anger, “Do you think you can come in here and just act so shamelessly? You think we're running a circus for lunatics like you?!” “You can't just–”“Why not?” Hannah shot back calmly.“You were so kind to let me stay here. Seems only fair that you'll treat me to a little something too. As a no good scum with no shame, consider it a favor to an old friend.” She said loud for everyone to hear and gave Victoria a wink.Clint shifted uncomfortably behind Hannah, sensing the tension that was brewing between the two women. He had seen enough to know that this was going to get messy, but he stayed away, unsure where this would be.Hannah was ready for a fight, and she was playing it smart, which he was intrigued to see.Victoria seethed now, storming around in anger, lookin

    Author’s POVHannah’s eyes narrowed, and for a moment, something darker flashed across her face. She remained quiet for a while, almost as if contemplating her next words carefully.“Well, what is it? It sure must be important if you are willing to risk annoying Ethan for it.” Clint asked curiously.A small smile stretched Hannah’s lips, she shook her head softly, deciding that she still couldn’t trust Clint or anyone connected to Ethan with her secret.“This isn’t just about Victoria,” she said quietly. “It’s about getting my dignity back from everyone who stole it from me. Every opportunity I lost because they took one look at me and decided that I wasn’t worth it, I wasn’t qualified.” Hannah lied, yet her fists still clenched in anger. This wasn’t the main reason she was doing it. It was to find Lily, but still, recounting every moment of her life when she was denied an opportunity just because she wasn’t wealthy or had a good status made her anger grow.Clint blinked, confused.

    Author’s POVSeeing the sinister grin on her face, Clint was puzzled. “Something about this situation seems funny to you?” He asked as he backed out of the driveway. Hannah swallowed hard, her resolve tightening.“I need to talk to him. Face to face.”Clint suddenly shot her a stern look, “Are you sure that’s a good idea? If he knows what you are doing, he’s not going to be happy.” “I don’t care,” Hannah said firmly.“This ends now. I need to know where he stands with this marriage. If he’s just going to keep abusing my privacy, then I might just have to return the favor a different way.” Without saying, Clint could see that Hannah was furious and meant every single word of what she said.He heaved a deep sigh, tired of arguing with her. Tonight had been too much trouble already and right now he just wanted to get her back home in time for the party.He tactically drove away from the store, occasionally glancing at the rearview mirror to ensure they were still not followed.After a

Anything I need to know before it starts?” Hannah asked, quickly changing the subject.Ethan’s expression softened as he heaved a sigh and started, “The party’s all set,” he said, tapping a guest list, and then his eyes narrowed into a stern gaze.“I need you to be prepared, Hannah. There will be people from my world – business associates, family, important people. Not the kind of people you should mess with. They’ll all be watching us very closely tonight, and if there’s any sign of slip up, someone might notice. So we’ll have to be very careful tonight.” He warned, looking at her intently.He paused, seeing the anxious look on Hannah’s face. Ethan knew just how much pressure this was on her. For someone who hadn’t ever been to any party with the elites, attending one where she would be the center of attention could be overwhelming.He strode toward her, stopping just inches in front of her. “This engagement…it’s as much a partne

But Hannah wasn’t giving her a choice. Slowly, she grabbed the phone and brought it to her ear. “H-Hello?” she stammered, her voice barely audible. There was a brief silence on the other end for a moment, and then a calm yet cold voice spoke. “Lily,” the man said softly, his tone dripping with satisfaction. “Did you really think you could hide from me forever?” Lily’s breath caught in her throat. She tried to speak but couldn’t form words. Her throat felt dry, and her heart raced. “Wh-what do you want?” She stuttered.The man laughed bitterly. “What I’ve always wanted, Lily,” he said. “The money you stole from me.” “I don’t have it,” Lily said quickly, her voice trembling. “I don’t have your money anymore.” The man’s tone hardened. “Well, that’s unfortunate,” he said. “Alfred won’t like hearing t

Hannah sighed heavily, the tension thick between them. “Well?” She asked, her voice sharp. “What are you doing here?”Lily hesitated, her eyes darting to the ground. It was as though she was struggling to find the right words or anything to say, but still, the words were unable to form. Frustrated, Hannah, turned on her heel to walk away.“Wait!” Lily’s voice broke through the quiet, her ton tinged with desperation and fear. “I’m here because of you.”Hannah froze mid-step, and slowly turned back, her face unreadable but her eyes hinting with curiousity. “What do you mean, ‘because of me?’” Lily moved uncomfortably, looking anywhere but at Hannah. She opened her mouth to speak, but before any words could come
