Is there something bothering you about me?"
Clive averted his gaze, unwilling to meet Hannah's probing eyes, and Vi replied stiffly, "No. Hannah, undeterred, gestured emphatically toward the table.
"If you have something to say, just spit it out.
Enough with the secrets.
You know what bothersthe most.
" "Fine.
Since you're adamant, I'll cut to the chase," Clive said, a flicker ofO M resentment clouding his features. "Why didn't you speak up when our boss reached out to you earlier?" "I was abroad.
I couldn't reach out because of safety concerns, so I changed my number,” Hannah explained. "ALL right.
Then I've got nothing more to add," Clive conceded, his demeanor deflated.
