The smile vanished from Hannah's face.
"I understand.
" "Then why proceed with it? You're only making Amelie miserable now.
Engaging in battles you can't decisively win is unwise.
"She has targetedrepeatedly.
Why shouldn't I respond? Just because she attacks, doesn't mean I can't retaliate.
I don't have your patience, Dad.
Unlike you, I won't wait to seek revenge after being wronged.
If someone getsin trouble and I don't get back at him, I won't be Hannah anymore.
" The stubborn and relentless nature of Hannah was a legacy from Wallace himself.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWallace considered this silently, his face giving nothing away.
"Do you understand that if the other branches of the Compton family learn of this, they will create problems too? The Compton and Chadwich families are connected by marriage, almost as one.
Should the Chadwich family face difficulties, the Comptons will also suffer.
Hannah spoke with ease.
"Ultimately, it's the Chadwich family that will bear the disgrace.
Dad, you are the patriarch of the Compton family.
You are the decision-maker.
Surely, the complaints of others don't sway you?" Wallace, perceiving the sarcasm in Hannah's tone, struggled to contain his irritation.
"Alright, I will resolve this issue.
Do not interfere further.
Hannah rose with a smile.
"Thank you for handling this complicated affair.
Wallace gestured dismissively, unaware of the forthcoming complications she would initiate.
As Hannah approached the doorway, Wallace remarked, "By the way, Maloney said he's bringing you back to Cadilind next month.
Did he mention that to you?" "The news cfrom my brothers.
I'm all set for the trip.
" Wallace paused before suggesting, "After your business discussions back home, if you decide not to return here, that might be best.
The Compton family operates several businesses there; I can arrange a position for you.
" Hannah turned to face Wallace.
"Dad, are you suggesting this because you think I'll continue to be a problem here?" Wallace looked at her directly.
"I believe it's safer for you in Cadilind, away from the threats here.
"Ha ha.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHannah chuckled softly.
"Back home, they haven't leftalone either.
Since my identity was exposed, I haven't enjoyed a day of peace.
As she finished speaking, Wallace's face grew somber, and she added, “I'm leaving now.
I won't be an eyesore to you any longer.
"1 Bang! The door slammed behind her as she exited.
Moments later, Wallace removed his glasses and flung them onto then desk, leaning back in his chair, his eyes closed.
He pinched the bridge of his nose and murmured, "Priscillà, no spe's our daughero, wonder our daughter. She's so much like me.
Wallace slowly opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling. "It's exactly because she's likethat I worry about her.
As soon as Hannah returned to her own place, she decided to initiate contact with someone back in the country for the first time. Checking her phone, she noted the time.
It was about eight in the evening back home; she wouldn't be interrupting Edwin's work.
She then made a video call to Edwin using her computer.
The call connected almost instantly.
