Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1182

To Leo, it was only natural for his children to carry his family name, and he wanted to uphold the tradition.

"I'm sorry, but I don't intend to change my name," Hannah outright rejected. She added, "I'd have been dead if my Dad didn't pick me up from the street. You found me only because you wanted me to rescue my brother." "How can I change my family name all of a sudden?" she explained, "I can't do this to the Young family."

Lyna smirked. Thank God she turned down the offer.

Leo, on the hand, knitted his brows. He was obviously unhappy with her answer. "But you're my daughter. How can you carry their family name?"

Upon noticing how quiet Hannah was, Leo decided to soften his approach. "I'm doing this for you. When I retire, I want you to take over some of the family businesses.

"You'd then have a steady source of income to take good care of the Youngs. You have a younger sister too if I'm not mistaken? We can offer her a job in our company."

Leo was only willing to do this because he knew he would benefit greatly since Fabian was his boyfriend. Once Hannah had officially become a Blackwood, Leo was certain that Fabian would give them all the support that they needed.

Felicia was clearly unhappy with this arrangement. She got rid of Hannah and her mother years ago to ensure she could get her hands on the Blackwood's inheritance. Don't tell me this woman is coming back to steal it away from us?

"No. I'll not change my family name." Hannah stood firm.

I don't even care about their inheritance. If I'm so money-minded, I would have gotten my hands on Fabian's wealth.

Leo was surprised at how persistent she was. The Blackwood family was wealthier and more prominent than the Youngs, yet she was not tempted by the offer.

Hannah had a determined look on her face, and she refused to budge.

"Let's not force Hannah if she doesn't want to change her family name, okay? We should be glad that we've found her," Lyna said. She acted as if she was on Hannah's side.

Lyna was overjoyed upon knowing that Hannah had no intention of taking on the Blackwood family name.

Hannah looked at Lyna and expressed her gratitude with a nod as she thought the latter was genuinely concerned for her.

To this day, Hannah still believed that Felicia was capable of getting rid of her mother since that woman kicked her out of the house even when she was only a child.

In return, Lyna gave Hannah a smile and responded with a nod too.

How cute. I would have liked you, Hannah, but too bad, you are getting in the way. Lyna laughed silently.

"Let's not talk about that anymore, okay? Why don't you tell us about Fabian? How did you two get together?" Lyna immediately diverted their attention. She did not want Leo to harp on the same issue as she was afraid Hannah might eventually give in and agreed to change her family name. She also wanted to take this opportunity to gather more information about Hannah.

"Mr. Norton and I..." Hannah said hesitantly, "We're actually not together." As a journalist, Hannah understood the danger of becoming a subject of gossip, especially when she was associated with a man from a prominent family. This was why she had to be very cautious with her answer.

Leo was struck dumb. They're not a couple? How is it possible? Fabian himself has confirmed their relationship yesterday morning! He even brought a bed over, so he could stay here and accompany her. Why would he do this if they're not together?

Lyna expressed her dismay as she felt Hannah was hiding something from them. "Oh, well. I guess I shouldn't ask further since you've not willing to tell us more."

That remark put Hannah in an awkward position. On the one hand, she did not want Lyna to detest her, but on the other hand, she could not tell the truth. "Fabian is actually my brother!"
