Chapter 1294
âAll right.â After hanging up the phone, Hannah felt her palms sweating as she thought back to what had just happened,
âPaola, Iâve decided Iâm not going to Zurich,â Hannah walked out of her room, talking as she moved. Only then did she notice a man sitting on the living room couch.
The man sat upright and confident, his physique striking. Even from behind, she could tell who he was,
It was her ex-husband, Steven!
This was their first meeting in over a month since their divorce,
Hannah wasnât sure why he was in her hotel room, and she felt a little nervous, âMr. Dizon, did you need something?â
Steven held a tablet, completely engrossed in the files on the screen, ignoring Hannah,
Hannah thought to herself, âIf he wonât give me any attention, then I wonât give him any either.â
She then turned her attention elsewhere, calling out loudly, âPaola, Paolaâ¦â
Stevenâs deep voice suddenly broke the silence, âStop calling, Iâve had her taken away. She wonât bother you anymore.â
Maybe because she had grown used to Stevenâs control over the years, when she heard her assistant had been taken away by him, Hannah accepted the fact quite calmly, âAll right.â
Steven finally put down the tablet, sparing her a glance, âHannah!â
Hannah replied, âMr. Dixon, whatâs up?â
Steven said, âPaola works for Jared.â
Hannah replied, âI know.â
Steven asked, âKnowing that, you still let her stay? Do you have a thing for that guy?â
Hannah replied, âMr. Dixon, weâre divorced. Whom I have a thing for is my own business, not yours.â
Steven laughed, âNot my business?â He stood up and walked elegantly towards Hannah, âDo you know what Jared did?â
Hannah was actually quite curious about what Jared had done, âWhat?â
Steven said, âHeâs committed multiple crimes, including organizing illegal gatherings, forcing himself on women, and more. No one has been able to punish him until now. Iâm going to make him pay, make him rot in jail.â
Such a person indeed deserves severe punishment!
Steven did a good thing.
Thatâs what Hannah was thinking, but she just casually replied, âAll right.â
Steven asked, âYouâre not going to miss him?â
Hannah found this amusing. âMr. Dixon, wasnât I clear enough? Weâre over. Whom I miss is none of your business.â
Whether it was her words that provoked him or not, Steven suddenly reached out and gripped Hannahâs chin tightly.
He said, âHannah, didnât I tell you, even if I donât want you, you canât be with any other man.â
Hannah found this hilarious and looked at him defiantly, âMr. Dixon, when we signed our contract years ago, there was no such clause. Are you addicted to me? Even with the woman of your dreams back, you canât help thinking about me, can you?â
