He had a wild and surprising idea in his mind!

But if his suspicions were wrong, what else could it be?

With this thought, Bryson’s brow furrowed.

He raised his hand to his temple as a throbbing pain started to build.

Careful not to wake Hannah, he stood up shakily and moved towards the window.

Opening the window let in a blast of cold air, instantly easing his headache.

Bryson’s thoughts were all over the place, like pieces slipping through his fingers.

Finally, he glanced at Hannah and disappeared into the growing Light of the night.

Hannah felt as if she had slept for an eternity.

She lazily opened her eyes, slowly sitting up after feeling dazed.

The soreness in her waist and back filled her with discomfort.

She looked around the room.

Bryson, that jerk! He must have sneaked off while she was asleep!

Hannah grew even more frustrated.

Why did she always have to be at his mercy?

Hannah ran her fingers through her hair, muttering angrily, “Bryson! You’d better stay away for a while! Or else, I swear I’ll kick you twice!”

After getting ready, Hannah checked her phone and saw it was already 10:30 AM.

She noticed five missed calls, all from Maloney.

Stepping outside, Hannah dialed back as she walked.

Maloney answered quickly, “You’re always hard to reach.

Decided to pick up at last?”

“I was asleep and had my phone on silent.

What’s up?” Hannah asked.

“What do you think? We came to Cadilind this time to talk business, right?” Maloney responded.

Hannah asked, “But wasn’t that deal set for early next month? Has the schedule changed?”

Meanwhile, Maloney was enjoying the sun on the beach, clinking glasses with others.

“No, it’s a different opportunity.

It seems like a safe investment with guaranteed returns.

Interested in hearing more about it Maloney proposed.

“Safe investment with guaranteed returns?” Hannah was puzzled and said, “What sort of business is it?”

Maloney explained, “It involves some new technologies and products in the biomedical field.

They seem promising.

You know more about this stuff than I do.

Could you take a look at it?”
