Chapter 223
“Well, go tell your brother Hannah is mine, she belongs to me” he said and then Lucas stared at Hannah who was looking weak and sweating intensely,
he frowned deeply as he felt a surge of anger run through him.
He moved toward Jeff and punched him so hard on his face and he quickly let go of her and staggered backwards.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
“How dare you hit me?” Jeff yelled and wanted to punch Lucas when he held his hands and squeezed his fingers making him wince in pain and then he pushed him to the ground.
Lucas rushed towards Hannah who was about to fall and held her. Her vision was blurry, as she could barely see anything. She just closed her eyes.
“Hannah, are you alright? What happened to you?” Lucas asked but she didn’t say a word.
“What did you do to her? Did you drug her?” Lucas asked as he turned to Jeff angrily.
“No, I didn’t, I met her this way,” he said and Lucas stared at Jeff angrily and then at Hannah.
“Just so you know, you’ve entered my blacklist. Watch your back because I’m going to come for you” he said and then stared at Hannah’s pretty face and then to her lips.
He then removed a strand of hair that was lying on her face.
“Where’s Brandon? I need Brandon” she managed to say and Lucas sighed.
“Calm down, I’ll call Brandon now. I will take you to him” he said and then brought out his phone to call Brandon but then he paused as he had a change of heart.
He didn’t feel the need to. He could take care of her himself.
Meanwhile, Jeff who was still on the ground stared at Lucas and noticed the way he was staring at Hannah. No human would stare at his brother’s wife that way, except he was in love with her.
Isabella on the other hand had witnessed the scene of Lucas coming to save Hannah, she frowned deeply.
She wondered why everyone loved Hannah so much, what is so special about this woman, she thought angrily. Just then she saw Brandon and Thomas and then a thought crossed her mind.
Meanwhile, Brandon and Thomas are seen discussing and laughing when suddenly a lady rushes towards Thomas and tells him his attention was needed on something.
“I’ll be back Brandon” he said and he nodded.
Brandon sighed while looking around trying to find Hannah, he wondered where she had gone and just then someone touched his hands from behind.
He turned and saw Isabella.
“Hey,” Isabella muttered
“What do you want Isabella?” Brandon asked as he stared around searching for Hannah but she was nowhere to be found.
“I needed to talk to you about something important,” she said as Brandon brought out his phone and dialed Hannah’s number.
He suddenly heard her phone ringing from a table behind him. He walked towards the table and saw Hannah’s phone, her purse, and some empty glasses on the table.
“Was she drinking alcohol?” He thought as he smelled the glass. He wondered where she had gone or if she had gone to the restroom. He needed to find her, he thought as he picked up her purse and her phone.
“Brandon, please, can you just spare me a few minutes…”
“Now is not the right time Isabella, we could talk some other time,” Brandon said and with that, he walked towards the restroom.
Isabella felt tears gathered in her eyes the moment Brandon walked away from her.
She began to feel Brandon hated her because he wouldn’t even give her any tiny bit of attention. Wasn’t she beautiful enough?, she thought and then tears slipped down her cheeks.
Just then she felt a hand touch her shoulder, she turned and saw Edward.
“Daddy” she called as more tears slipped down her cheeks.
“Honey, are you alright? What’s the problem? Why are you crying?” Edward asked.
“It’s Brandon, he wouldn’t talk to me. He hates me” Isabella cried and Edward felt his heart break into pieces, he hated seeing his daughter cry, he hated it.
I think it’s time I take matters into my hands and see Brandon marrying my daughter. I need her to be happy, he thought as he pulled her into a hug while caressing her back.
“Stop crying alright, he’s going to come around. Come let’s go home” he said and then held her as they both walked out of the house.
Brandon on the other hand who had just walked towards the restroom suddenly saw Jeff on the ground and Lucas holding Hannah, whose eyes were closed.
“What happened to her?” He asked as he rushed towards Lucas.
“Brandon,” Hannah called as she heard his voice.
“Was she drinking?” Brandon asked
“I think he drugged her,” Lucas said as he pointed at Jeff.
“I didn’t drug her, maybe you should ask your brother who is in love with your wife,” Jeff said and both Lucas and Brandon stared at each other and then to Jeff.
Brandon felt a surge of anger rush through him, just as he was about to move towards Jeff, he felt someone holding his hands.
He turned and saw Hannah holding his hands.
“Brandon, are you here?” She asked as she managed to open her eyes.
“Yes, I’m here, I’m here,” he said as he carried her in his arms at once and then gave Jeff a deadly glare before walking away with Hannah in his arms.
“Where did you go, I was searching for you. I had wanted to call you and tell you to come meet me. I was so scared” Hannah kept talking nonstop as he took her to the car.
“I’m here now, I’m here now, you are safe,” he said as he helped her inside the car and was about to close the door when she called his name again.
“Brandon please don’t go,” she said and he moved closer to her.
“Hannah, I’m here alright. You are drunk, I just need to get you home so you can rest” he said and she nodded negatively with her eyes closed.
“Don’t go, stay with me. I need you”
