Chapter 195
\nThree Years Later, He Came Back Begging novel Chapter 195<\/p>\n
Hannah shook her head. \u201cDad, Mom, you\u2019re both so sure I was involved, but do you actually have any proof?\u201d<\/p>\n
Odette hadn\u2019t even opened her mouth when Lawrence crushed out his cigarette, the air thick with the sharp smell of smoke. His voice was like steel. \u201cYou really think Nana isn\u2019t going to talk?\u201d<\/p>\n
He\u2019d checked everything. Not a single cent went between Nana and Hannah. He knew Hannah was way too careful to leave any evidence behind. All she had to do was say the word, and Nana would handle the rest.<\/p>\n
But secrets always have a way of coming out. Whoever did this would have to face it.<\/p>\n
\u201cHannah, you\u2019re not getting away with it.\u201d Lawrence gave a cold little laugh. \u201cNana\u2019s dad has been supplying Golden Horizon Enterprises for years, thanks to an introduction you made back in the day. After all these years, their business hasn\u2019t really taken off, has it? If something bad happens now… what do you think will happen to everyone in the James family, or the hundreds of people working at their company?\u201d<\/p>\n
Hannah lifted her head suddenly, almost defiant, but when her eyes landed on Odette and Carl, she relaxed a bit. The Lane family was known for its integrity. There was no way they\u2019d let Lawrence drag innocent people into this.<\/p>\n
\u201cLawrence, I get that you feel guilty about Bonnie, but Nana is going to face legal consequences, and that should be enough. Going after her family? Isn\u2019t that pushing things too far?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd what about you? You went to the US to catch an American citizen. Did you even bother with the proper paperwork? You violated his civil rights, forced him back here, and then you…\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s enough!\u201d Lawrence exploded, his face twisted in anger, eyes blazing, breath coming in heavy gasps. He looked scarier than Hannah had ever seen.<\/p>\n
Hannah stood her ground, face cold, refusing to back down.<\/p>\n
The whole room had fallen silent. Everyone seemed to be holding their breath. Even Jackson, standing off to the side with a complicated look in his eyes, understood. No matter how you looked at it, Hannah was tangled up in all of this.<\/p>\n
It wasn\u2019t like the plan was particularly subtle either. Anyone could see Nana had no reason to pull something like this on her own.<\/p>\n
And yet Hannah had gone ahead anyway, knowing there was no real way out.<\/p>\n
His cold words cut deep, and Hannah\u2019s eyes filled with tears she couldn\u2019t hide. She glared at him with all the hurt and rage she had left.<\/p>\n
This was the man who had supposedly chosen her, only to turn around and reject her, treat her like a disease, avoid her at all costs.<\/p>\n
Of course. Once he knew the truth, all it would take was Bonnie crying, playing the victim, and Lawrence would run straight to her side without a second thought.<\/p>\n
For Bonnie, he\u2019d throw his morals aside. He\u2019d protect her at any cost.<\/p>\n
Hannah had never felt the truth as cruelly as she did now, tearing up everything she\u2019d refused to admit.<\/p>\n
Lawrence had never loved her. Not once.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-863","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/863","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=863"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
