Hannah looked at him, puzzled.

“Why should I take you with me?”

Maloney laughed.

“Mr.

Compton asked you to look after me while I’m here.

You can’t keep ditching me, can you?”

Was he nuts?

Hannah felt like snapping at him.

“I never listen to him, and you know it.

You’re perfectly capable of taking care of yourself.

Why do you insist on coming along?”

Maloney shrugged.

“You’re the only person I know in Cadilind.

You can’t keep leaving me behind, can you?”

As they talked, Hannah walked straight to her car.

Maloney reached for the passenger door.

“Anyway, I’m your so-called—”

“Stop right there!”

Hannah interrupted, her eyes cold.

“Can you come up with a better excuse?”

“Uh… Maloney hesitated, then said, followed you back to Cadilind.

You need to look after me, right?”

“You’ve been here for business plenty of times.

You can manage.

I have other things to do, so I need to go.

Before he could respond, Hannah slipped into the driver’s seat.

“I’m leaving now, Mr.

Pierce.

As her car sped away, Maloney let his hand drop and sighed.

He pulled out his phone and dialed Wallace.

“Mr.

Compton, things are alright, but Miss Moore still doesn’t trust me.

I can’t be with her constantly.

Wallace showed no surprise; he understood his daughter’s cautious nature.

“As long as she’s safe.

About the issue with Amelie allegedly hiring someone to harm her, I’m looking into it.

I haven’t found out anything against Amelie yet.

I’ll keep investigating discreetly.

Please keep an eye on Hannah in Cadilind.

Maloney refrained from mentioning that Hannah was doing well in Cadilind and didn’t need his care.

Instead, he said, “Don’t worry, Mr.

Compton.

I brought her back here, and I’ll make sure she’s looked after.

Before Lydia showed up, Hannah took care of the forum issues at Halliday University.

Victoria swiftly apologized, deleting the previous post and posting a video apology.

Comments were disabled, and new guidelines were enforced on the forum.

The incident sparked discussions across the university, becoming a hot topic.

As the university took action against the rumor-mongering students, gossip quieted down on campus.

Approaching the principal, Hannah handed back the theses of the outstanding students.

“I figure it’s best if I stay out of school matters since I’ve left.

Here is the contact information of one of my seniors.

She is also Saul’s student.

She can help tutor these students in the future.

The expression on the principal’s face was a jumble of emotions as he accepted the theses, letting out a heavy sigh.
