The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never
Chapter 1778

Curious, Hannah turned to Bryson.

Just as she was about to ask why he said that, Bryson added, “If he actually got it tattooed on his face and then got assassinated, the heir of the Pierce family would be replaced by someone else.

”

Hannah closed her eyes, trying not to laugh.

Did Bryson even realize how funny it was to say something so absurd with such a serious tone?

Grace, who was sitting next to them, couldn’t hold back her Laughter anymore.

She turned her head, doing her best to stifle her giggles.

Maloney could tell Bryson was teasing him with his serious tone, making it clear he was just joking around.

Maloney clenched his teeth and finally turned away.

“I don’t feel like talking to you anymore.

Bryson, you’re such a smooth talker.

Sooner or later, you’ll end up offending everyone around you.

”

Bryson narrowed his eyes and grinned.

“I don’t care, you know.

”

They reached the nearest big shopping mall.

Since it was the weekend, the place was packed with more people than usual.

“Hannah, what do you like to eat? I’ll cover the bill later,” Grace said, as Hannah patted her head and handed her a cart.

Then she turned to Maloney and said, “You can go with Grace.

Pick whatever you want to eat.

It’s on me today.

”

Maloney walked up to Grace and grumbled, “Hannah, that’s really generous of you.

”

He hurried to the snack section with Grace, both of them in high spirits.

Hannah, speechless, took Dotson and Bryson to the vegetable aisle.

Hannah reached for a shopping cart, but Bryson beat her to it, stepping in to help and positioning himself behind her, with Dotson on one side and Bryson on the other.

He really was acting like her bodyguard, making sure she was safe.

She walked in front of the cart, picking up some vegetables, then turned around to drop them into the cart.

Suddenly, Hannah stumbled, caught off guard by an unexpected push!

Bryson quickly steadied her and shot a cold glare at the guy who had bumped into her.

“I’m sorry! I’m really sorry!” the man in black glasses said, looking genuinely apologetic.

After accidentally bumping into Hannah, he kept apologizing with real regret.

Hannah shrugged it off, not too bothered by the minor collision.

She looked up at the man and waved her hand dismissively.

“It’s alright.

”

“Thank you, thank you so much.

I’m really sorry again!”

The man rushed past them, his panic disappearing.

He spoke into his earpiece.

“Target located.

Get ready to move out!”

Hannah walked over to the frozen food section.

As she reached out to touch the freezer, a slight frown creased her brow.

She glanced back in the direction the man had gone, but he was nowhere to be seen.

“Is something wrong?” Bryson asked, looking at Hannah.
